Subject: powerpc relocatable vmlinux - how to
Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 16:16:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <488DE2C7.3090003@criticalsoftware.com> (raw)
Can somebody help me with a few indications regarding how to obtain a
relocatable vmlinux when compiling the linux kernel for ppc32 ?
For powerpc, by default, the building process results in an ELF 32-bit
MSB executable statically linked. I saw that for other architectures it
builds, by default, a relocatable elf file.
Why is it statically linked for some architectures and relocatable for
others ? How to make it relocatable for ppc32? I assume that changing
LDFLAGS_vmlinux to '-r' in the Makefile for ppc is not enough... (i'm
using 2.6.11)
