From cb58455c48dc43536e5548bdba4e916b2f0cf13d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sam Ravnborg Date: Mon, 9 Jan 2006 21:20:34 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: KERNELRELEASE is only re-defined when buiding the kernel To avoid running setlocalversion as root no longer (re-)define KERNELRELEASE for each run. With this patch KERNELRELEASE is only re-read when we do an actual kernel build. Rationale behind this is "do as little as possible" when executing make install - as root! A new file named .kernelrelease is strored in the root of the kernel tree containing the actual version string. So when we use do a kernel build the .kernelrelease file will be updated. But in all other situations it is left as-is. To make it more visible the kernel now prints out the version being build. Sample: Building kernel 2.6.15-g63b794bf-dirty ... ... The patch also un-exports VERSION PATCHLEVEL SUBLEVEL EXTRAVERSION LOCALVERSION since all users of these are anyway broken - and none is left in the tree.
