| 2020-06-06 | kbuild: add variables for compression tools | Denis Efremov | |
| Allow user to use alternative implementations of compression tools, such as pigz, pbzip2, pxz. For example, multi-threaded tools to speed up the build: $ make GZIP=pigz BZIP2=pbzip2 Variables _GZIP, _BZIP2, _LZOP are used internally because original env vars are reserved by the tools. The use of GZIP in gzip tool is obsolete since 2015. However, alternative implementations (e.g., pigz) still rely on it. BZIP2, BZIP, LZOP vars are not obsolescent. The credit goes to @grsecurity. As a sidenote, for multi-threaded lzma, xz compression one can use: $ export XZ_OPT="--threads=0" Signed-off-by: Denis Efremov <efremov@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> | |||
| 2019-11-11 | kbuild: Add make dir-pkg build option | Matteo Croce | |
| Add a 'dir-pkg' target which just creates the same directory structures as in tar-pkg, but doesn't package anything. Useful when the user wants to copy the kernel tree on a machine using ssh, rsync or whatever.

| 2019-11-11 | kbuild: Wrap long "make help" text lines | Geert Uytterhoeven | |
| Some "make help" text lines extend beyond 80 characters. Wrap them before an opening parenthesis, or before 80 characters. Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@glider.be> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> | |||
| 2019-08-25 | kbuild: pkg: rename scripts/package/Makefile to scripts/Makefile.package | Masahiro Yamada | |
| scripts/package/Makefile does not use $(obj) or $(src) at all. It actually generates files and directories in the top of $(objtree). I do not see much sense in descending into scripts/package/. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> | |||
