Hi all, This patch series improves cross-compilation support, mostly fixing the scripts to support target root location. Now, to cross-compile kernel-backports, KLIB_BUILD should still point to the linux kernel build tree and, the new KROOT variable, to the target root location (instead of the target kernel module location, as mentionned at [1]): --- make \ CROSS_COMPILE=<toolchain prefix> \ ARCH=<target architecture> \ KROOT=<target root directory> \ KLIB_BUILD=<kernel build directory> --- This should not change anything when compiling backports for the build machine. If this series breaks anything, please let me know.
