kbuild: Do not package /boot and /lib in make tar-pkg

2012-12-10T18:59:41Z

commit fe04ddf7c2910362f3817c8156e41cbd6c0ee35d upstream. There were reports of users destroying their Fedora installs by a kernel tarball that replaces the /lib -> /usr/lib symlink. Let's remove the toplevel directories from the tarball to prevent this from happening.

scripts/package: tar-pkg: use tar --owner=root

2009-12-12T12:08:15Z

Use the --owner= and --group= options to make sure the entries in the built tar file are owned by root. Without this change, a careless sysadmin using the tar-pkg target can easily end up installing a kernel that is writable by the unprivileged user account used to build the kernel. Test that these options are understood before using them so that non-GNU versions of tar can still be used if the operator is appropriately cautious.

kbuild: tar-pkg with out-out-tree building

2006-01-01T18:31:30Z

Fix out-of-tree builds for the tar-pkg targets When I wrote the buildtar script, I didn't even think about out-of-tree builds because I didn't use these back then. This patch throughoutly uses ${objtree} instead of `pwd`. Also, the kernel version is no longer manually built. Instead, it will properly use $KERNELRELEASE . Installing modules is only done if CONFIG_MODULES is set. Signed-off-by: Jan-Benedict Glaw Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

[PATCH] kbuild: create tarballs

2005-07-12T22:40:17Z

It adds tarball packaging, which I prefer for distribution. Also one of the two blanks after @echo is removed. One seems to be enough :) Signed-off-by: Jan-Benedict Glaw Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
