Subject: [PATCH/RFC] kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2009 22:11:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090720201137.GB6854@merkur.ravnborg.org> (raw)


While working on a patch to save ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE
Peter Z noticed that it would cause "make install" to fail
if we used the setting of CROSS_COMPILE from build time.

I took a closer look at it and the final conclusion was that
we should not use CROSS_COMPILE to select installkernel script,
so I redid that in the following patch.

The patch has also appeared on linux-kernel and linux-kbuild in
the thread: "[PATCH] kbuild: save ARCH & CROSS_COMPILE when building a kernel"

I decided to post it here so relevant arch maintainers has been notified,
and thus given the option to comment on it.

Assuming this is not NACK'ed I will include the patch in kbuild-next.git

	Sam

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script

Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built -
it would no longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46
  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 - but all changes
looks obvious.

 INSTALL_PATH specifies where to place the updated kernel and system map
 images. Default is /boot, but you can set it to other values.
 
+INSTALLKERNEL
+--------------------------------------------------
+Install script called when using "make install".
+The default name is "installkernel".
+
+The script will be called with the following arguments:
+    $1 - kernel version
+    $2 - kernel image file
+    $3 - kernel map file
+    $4 - default install path (use root directory if blank)
+
+The implmentation of "make install" is architecture specific
+and it may differ from the above.
+
+INSTALLKERNEL is provided to enable the possibility to
+specify a custom installer when cross compiling a kernel.
