Migrating to the common kernel-image package
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
Files for architecture <arch> should be placed into arch/<arch>. This
|
|
directory normally contains a common config file for this architecture
|
|
('config'), flavour-specific config files, Makefile.inc file,
|
|
controlling the build for this arch, and the defines file, containing
|
|
the machine descriptions for various flavours. For arches with
|
|
subarches the subdirectory arch/<arch>/<subarch> with the same file
|
|
structure must be created for each subarch.
|
|
|
|
Kernel config files
|
|
-------------------
|
|
Configuration files are constructed dynamically by concatenating a number
|
|
of config files as described below.
|
|
|
|
For architecture without subarches:
|
|
|
|
arch/config
|
|
arch/<arch>/config
|
|
arch/<arch>/config.<flavour>
|
|
|
|
For architecture with subarches:
|
|
|
|
arch/config
|
|
arch/<arch>/config
|
|
arch/<arch>/<subarch>/config
|
|
arch/<arch>/<subarch>/config.<flavour>
|
|
|
|
Control file
|
|
------------
|
|
The master control file debian/control must be generated before
|
|
the package is uploaded. debian/rules contains the debian/control
|
|
target, which generates the control file by invoking the
|
|
debian/bin/gencontrol.py script, which combines the templates from
|
|
the templates directory and arch/subarch specific defines file to
|
|
produce the debian/control file. Note that this target is intentionally
|
|
made to fail with a non-zero exit code to make sure that it is never
|
|
run during an automatic build. The following variables are substituted
|
|
into the templates:
|
|
|
|
@version@ Upstream kernel version, for example 2.6.11.
|
|
@major@ The major version, for example 2.6
|
|
@arch@ The Debian arch name, such as powerpc or i386.
|
|
@subarch@ The subarch - only used by powerpc right now.
|
|
@flavour@ The build flavour, such as 686 or k7-smp.
|
|
@class@ The CPU/architecture class; displayed in synopsis. It should
|
|
be fairly short, as the synopsis is supposed to be <80 chars.
|
|
It should be in the form "foo class", and will show up in the
|
|
description as "foo class machines".
|
|
@longclass@ The CPU/architecture class; displayed in the extended
|
|
description. The same rules apply as in @class@. If
|
|
this is unset, it will default to @class@.
|
|
@desc@ (Potentially) multi-line verbiage that's appended to
|
|
-image descriptions.
|
|
@abiname@ Current abiname, a single digit.
|
|
|
|
Normally, the arch-specific contents should be controlled by
|
|
adjusting the corresponding defines file.
|
|
|
|
Makefile.inc
|
|
------------
|
|
Each architecture subdirectory in arch may contain a Makefile.inc
|
|
file, which is included by debian/rules after definining all the
|
|
variables. It may be used to override the standard variables on
|
|
per-architecture basis and other evil things. So far the valid uses of
|
|
this file include the setting of the following variables:
|
|
|
|
image_postproc
|
|
|
|
A command to be run after the kernel image is built. As far as I know,
|
|
it only required on sparc for stripping of the kernel which is too big
|
|
to be booted otherwise. Typical use is too ugly to be presented here.
