  • The variable AFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
    kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
    On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
    pass in additional flags to gcc.

    This patch replace use of AFLAGS with KBUILD_AFLAGS all over
    the tree.

    Patch was tested on following architectures:
    alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k, s390

  • The variable CFLAGS is a wellknown variable and the usage by
    kbuild may result in unexpected behaviour.
    On top of that several people over time has asked for a way to
    pass in additional flags to gcc.

    This patch replace use of CFLAGS with KBUILD_CFLAGS all over the
    tree and enabling one to use:
    make CFLAGS=...
    to specify additional gcc commandline options.

    One usecase is when trying to find gcc bugs but other
    use cases has been requested too.

    Patch was tested on following architectures:
    alpha, arm, i386, x86_64, mips, sparc, sparc64, ia64, m68k

    Test was simple to do a defconfig build, apply the patch and check
    that nothing got rebuild.

  • With this fix, sparc links vmlinuz again using crosstool. Without this
    fix, the final link fails missing several dozen dozen symbols, beginning
    with:

    kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x6fd0): In function `do_exit':
    : undefined reference to `exit_io_context'

    (exit_io_context is defined in block/ll_rw_blk.c).

  • 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!
