    Fix bug 7401.

    Handle more than one source dir or file list to the initramfs gen scripts.

    The Kconfig help for INITRAMFS_SOURCE claims that you can specify multiple
    space-separated sources in order to allow unprivileged users to build an
    image. There are two bugs in the current implementation that prevent this
    from working.

    First, we pass "file1 dir2" to the gen_initramfs_list.sh script, which it
    obviously can't open.

    Second, gen_initramfs_list.sh -l outputs multiple definitions for
    deps_initramfs -- one for each argument.

  • d39a206bc   kbuild: rebuild initramfs if content of initramfs changes ... Browse Code »

    initramfs.cpio.gz being build in usr/ and included in the
    kernel was not rebuild when the included files changed.

    To fix this the following was done:
    - let gen_initramfs.sh generate a list of files and directories included
    in the initramfs
    - gen_initramfs generate the gzipped cpio archive so we could simplify
    the kbuild file (Makefile)
    - utilising the kbuild infrastructure so when uid/gid root mapping changes
    the initramfs will be rebuild

    With this change we have a much more robust initramfs generation.

    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!
