Why are four #undef's weird ? I am not criticizing your particular patch. Once we decide to support building on other OSes, I fear more and more patches would come in to fix building issues. I guess shell-scripts are often encountered with portability issues. People tend to do coding without caring about the portability. > Do you want to tell that "all OSes except Linux are weird?" Isn't it too childish? I am saying that at all. > I can say that i use Windows as my desktop OS because only Windows has all the necessary corporate software, and using Linux inside a virtual machine just for running builds is inconvenient. And vast majority of corporate users use Windows. > Well, it's just my opinion, i'm not going to start another "Lin vs Win" war, i think it's just stupid. We are not talking about the majority among corporate uses in general. Linux is absolutely the majority among kernel developers. They might also use Windows too, but they most likely run Linux (on a real hardware, or a virtual machine, whatever) for developing the kernel. -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
