You probably want to follow linux stable x5.4.y and not just the initial 5.4 release?

I wonder about the efficiency of this. I looks like actions/checkout does a shallow clone, so at least that isn't cloning the whole linux repo. The other option would be to install the kernel-devel ubuntu equivalent and compile against that. However, that would be whatever ubuntu is shipping. Maybe 5.4 to match OpenXT is better.

I'm not sure you can clone a non-github repo using the repository directive, and I think the stable-5.4.y is off of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git

Yea I think explicitly matching the openxt kernel version is a good idea.

As @crogers1 states, I do not believe I can pull an external repository. I can look into it to see.

As for building against Ubuntu, the purpose was to validate that the driver builds against a vanilla kernel and I selected the version for which OpenXT is currently using. It is possible to add additional tasks that build against other trees.
