2015-08-03	rework kernel module infrastructure	Waldemar Brodkorb
	Instead of maintaining mk/modules.mk which defines compilations of related kernel modules to pack together into a single package, follow an automatic approach: For every kernel module found in the modules installation directory, create a single package. There are a few caveats to cover: === Module Loading Order === Upon bootup, module loading is ordered based on the number-prefixed files in /etc/modules.d/. The correct number was previously managed in mk/modules.mk on a per-collection basis. The new approach is to have levels which modules are to be assigned to. Level 0 contains modules with no dependencies at all. Level 1 contains modules which have only level 0 dependencies, and so on. This information is determined at compile-time by make-module-ipkgs.sh. === Module Installation to Target RootFS === Since module packages are created automatically from the modules the script finds, ADK build system has no knowledge about the connection between what the user has selected in menuconfig and the actual module packages. Therefore the earlier approach to install selected packages into rootfs does not hold anymore. Instead, use wildcards to find all packages in firmware directory prefixed by 'kmod-' and install them all (hopefully doing the right thing). === Kernel Version === KERNEL_VERSION now contains KERNEL_RELEASE already By creating a localversion file, make KERNEL_RELEASE part of the kernel's version number (so KERNEL_VERSION is correct in most situations) Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>

2014-09-26	add support for toolchain building for crisv32 architecture	Waldemar Brodkorb

2014-01-16	good bye cris, hardware is eol, latest toolchain is broken, qemu emulator ↵	Waldemar Brodkorb
	support is bad, kernel needs patches for serial and network
2012-01-15	mk/image.mk: improve and simplify initramfs generation	Phil Sutter
	Using the kernel tools is a lot better than calling cpio ourselfs, as this way we can have it create device nodes for us. So no need to reopen /dev/console and things like that. While here, fix also initramfs compression (untested), as in my experience the kernel drops all symbols regarding compression from it's .config in the first compile phase. Probably one should make the actual compression algorithm configurable (and ideally depending on what the kernel supports for the given architecture). This is a rough hack based on what I'm using in the custom viprinux build file, so something like this is already running somewhere. ;)

2010-12-31	should be without path, just the name of the kernel	Waldemar Brodkorb

2010-12-30	rework architecture / embedded systems concept	Waldemar Brodkorb
	Make configuration of new targets cheap. Just add a new file in target/arch/sys-enabled/foo. See other files for syntax. While doing runtime tests with the new infrastructure I've updated a lot of other stuff: - gcc 4.5.2 - uClibc 0.9.32-rc1 (NPTL) - strongswan, php, miredo, parted, util-linux-ng, e2fsprogs I promise, this is the last big fat commit this year ;)
