* kbuild: Add MIPS specific files to generated package.Stuart Longland2013-08-261-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A lot of 64-bit systems supported by Linux/MIPS have boot firmware or bootloaders that only understand 32-bit ELF files, and as such, the vmlinux.32 target exists to support these systems. Therefore, it'd be nice if the tar-pkg target recognised this, and included the right version when packaging up a binary of the kernel. This updates buildtar to support MIPS targets. MIPS may use 'vmlinux' or 'vmlinux.32' depending on the target system. This uses 'vmlinux.32' in preference to 'vmlinux' where present (although I should check which is newer), including either file as /boot/vmlinux-${version}.

* buildtar: Add ARCH to the archive nameBorislav Petkov2013-04-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | When dealing with multiple sub-arches (like 32- and 64-bit on x86, for example) generating a bunch of kernel tar archives with the same name but for different sub-arches could get confusing and error-prone. Also, the build process could overwrite otherwise unrelated builds and you probably don't want that. So, add the architecture to the archive name for more clarity and less shoot-yourself-in-the-foot practices. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz>

| * Kbuild: use normal compression settings for tar*-pkgAndi Kleen2012-09-271-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For large kernel configurations (like a distribution kernel) targz-pkg takes a quite long time to just do the compression. I clocked it at 15+mins for a SUSE kernel like config on a fast system. And tarxz and bzip2 are even slower. The main reason is that the script that is doing the taring sets the highest compression level (-9). When I change it to just use the defaults the gzip time for the same kernel goes down to ~3 mins. I haven't tested xz and bzip, but I expect those to be much faster too. I'm not willing to wait that long for a small compression gain. So just change the script to use the defaults.

* | kbuild: Do not package /boot and /lib in make tar-pkgMichal Marek2012-09-271-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | There were reports of users destroying their Fedora installs by a kernel tarball that replaces the /lib -> /usr/lib symlink. Let's remove the toplevel directories from the tarball to prevent this from happening.

* scripts/package: tar-pkg: use tar --owner=rootMichal Marek2009-12-121-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the --owner= and --group= options to make sure the entries in the built tar file are owned by root. Without this change, a careless sysadmin using the tar-pkg target can easily end up installing a kernel that is writable by the unprivileged user account used to build the kernel. Test that these options are understood before using them so that non-GNU versions of tar can still be used if the operator is appropriately cautious.

* kbuild: tar-pkg with out-out-tree buildingJan-Benedict Glaw2006-01-011-18/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix out-of-tree builds for the tar-pkg targets When I wrote the buildtar script, I didn't even think about out-of-tree builds because I didn't use these back then. This patch throughoutly uses ${objtree} instead of `pwd`. Also, the kernel version is no longer manually built. Instead, it will properly use $KERNELRELEASE . Installing modules is only done if CONFIG_MODULES is set. Signed-off-by: Jan-Benedict Glaw <jbglaw@lug-owl.de> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
