Peter Anvin" , Sam Ravnborg Here's an updated set of patches to remove use of perl from the kernel build's "hot path" (roughly defined as "make allnoconfig; make; make headers_install"). This update incorporates feedback from Sam Ravnborg, Ted Tso, Joe Perches, Ingo Oeser, and others. It also fixes an integer overflow error in the first patch, and all three scripts have been retested under dash.
