   - make deb-pkg can do s390x and arm64
   - new patterns in scripts/tags.sh
   - scripts/tags.sh skips userspace tools' sources (which sometimes
     have copies of kernel structures) and symlinks

deb-pkg: Add automatic support for s390x architecture

2014-06-10T12:49:12+00:00

The Debian s390x architecture has 64-bit userland whereas s390 has
32-bit userland.  A 64-bit kernel can be used with either.  Now that
Debian supports multiarch and officially supports s390x, it makes more
sense to assign a 64-bit kernel package to s390x.

builddeb: use $OBJCOPY variable instead of objcopy

2014-04-24T13:25:09+00:00

In cross-build environment, we expect to use the cross-compiler objcopy
instead of the host objcopy.

It fixes following build failures:
objcopy --only-keep-debug lib/modules/3.14/kernel/net/ipv6/xfrm6_mode_tunnel.ko /srv/build/linux/debian/dbgtmp/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/3.14/kernel/net/ipv6/xfrm6_mode_tunnel.ko

deb-pkg: Fix building for MIPS big-endian or ARM OABI

2014-01-03T16:28:23+00:00

These commands will mysteriously fail:

$ make ARCH=arm versatile_defconfig
[...]
$ make ARCH=arm deb-pkg
[...]
make[1]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 1
make: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2

The Debian architecture selection for these kernel architectures does
'grep FOO=y $KCONFIG_CONFIG && echo bar', and after 'set -e' this
aborts the script if grep does not find the given config symbol.

deb-pkg: Fix cross-building linux-headers package

2014-01-03T16:17:38+00:00

builddeb generates a control file that says the linux-headers package
can only be built for the build system primary architecture.  This
breaks cross-building configurations.  We should use $debarch for this
instead.

Since $debarch is not yet set when generating the control file, set
Architecture: any and use control file variables to fill in the
description.

deb-pkg: Inhibit initramfs builders if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set

2013-11-18T13:35:49+00:00

The kernel postinst hook for initramfs-tools will build an initramfs
on installation unless $INITRD is set to 'No'.  make-kpkg generates a
postinst script that sets this variable appropriately, but we don't.
Set it based on CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD.

This should also work with dracut when 
is fixed.

Provide version number for Debian firmware package

2013-08-15T16:01:18+00:00

scripts/package/builddeb is used to create Debian packages.
Currently the firmware package always gets the same version number
irrespective of the Kernel version.
The paths inside the firmware package depend on the Kernel
version.

With the patch supplied the Kernel version becomes part of the
Debian firmware package number.

deb-pkg: add a hook argument to match debian hooks parameters

2013-07-24T13:50:24+00:00

We now provide the installed image path to the kernel hooks.

This should allow the package to better integrate with debian hooks, and
should not be too disruptive of hooks supporting only one parameter.
