  • The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
    Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
    even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both
    the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.

    For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:

    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html

    Changes in this patch:
    - Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
    - Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
    - Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
    targets are up-to-date or not.

  • With following patch a second option is enabled to obtain
    symbol information from a second external module when a
    external module is build.
    The recommended approach is to use a common kbuild file but
    that may be impractical in certain cases.
    With this patch one can copy over a Module.symvers from one
    external module to make symbols (and symbol versions) available
    for another external module.

    Updated documentation in Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt

  • Kbuild.include is a placeholder for definitions originally present in
    both the top-level Makefile and scripts/Makefile.build.
    There were a slight difference in the filechk definition, so the most videly
    used version was kept and usr/Makefile was adopted for this syntax.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
