Is the kernel team (I see Dave Jones is doin' much; that's why CC:) willing to help AlphaCore and add patches to kernel spec?No, it's nothing for upstream. Just fixes for the spec. Some if(n)arch's, sections for alpha, a config, ... Nothing that should break primary archs...Where are these patches?
Please find attached my current cvs diff. The Makefile.config part should be fixed better - I know, but had no time yet...
I also attached the patch mentioned in the diff and the config that I currently use.
I have no SMP support at the moment, as I don't have a smp capable machine.I don't know if it will build correctly, havn't yet finished my build - but I had a few tries already and today fixed - hopefully - the last build error.
I'm also not sure if the kernel will boot fine.I'm just trying to get the first patches in devel, so if you update something in cvs, it's easier to merge with what I have...
At the moment I'm not *fixing* things. I just try to build a kernel with make alpha directly in my cvs checkout. If it fails, I check where it fails and disable the appropriate module in my alpha config. I will go through the ifnarch's after I finally managed to boot up the new kernel and see that it works. Where appropriate, I will work with kernel upstream to fix the problems - of course...
I'd really like to work together with the current kernel maintainers to provide a kernel spec/srpm, that builds on alpha.
