      kconfig: simplification of scripts/extract-ikconfig · 7b76bfc8
      Dick Streefland authored
      
      I've rewritten the extract-ikconfig script to extract the kernel
      configuration from a kernel compiled with CONFIG_IKCONFIG. The main
      motivation for the rewrite was to remove the dependency on the
      external C program binoffset.c, which is compiled on the initial run.
      
      The binoffset executable is invoked with a relative path, which means
      that the old script can only be run from the top of the kernel tree,
      and only when you have write permission in the scripts directory.
      
      The new script uses tr/grep/tail/zcat only, and can be invoked from
      anywhere. The binoffset.c program has been removed. This script
      requires GNU grep 2.5 (released 2002-03-13) or higher, because the -o
      option was introduced in that version.

      fix modules_install via NFS · 8b249b68

      Rafael reported:
      
      I get the following error from 'make modules_install' on my test boxes:
      
        HOSTCC  firmware/ihex2fw
      /home/rafael/src/linux-2.6/firmware/ihex2fw.c:268: fatal error: opening dependency file firmware/.ihex2fw.d: Read-only file system
      compilation terminated.
      make[3]: *** [firmware/ihex2fw] Error 1
      make[2]: *** [_modinst_post] Error 2
      make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
      make: *** [all] Error 2
      
      where the configuration is that the kernel is compiled on a build box
      with 'make O=<destdir> -j5' and then <destdir> is mounted over NFS read-only by
      each test box (full path to this directory is the same on the build box and on
      the test boxes).  Then, I cd into <destdir>, run 'make modules_install' and get
      the error above.
      
      The issue turns out to be that we when we install firmware pick
      up the list of firmware blobs from firmware/Makefile.
      And this triggers the Makefile rules to update ihex2fw.
      
      There were two solutions for this issue:
      1) Move the list of firmware blobs to a separate file
      2) Avoid ihex2fw rebuild by moving it to scripts
      
      As I seriously beleive that the list of firmware blobs should be
      done in a fundamental different way solution 2) was selected.
