[PATCH 01/12] scripts: subarch.include: fix SUBARCH on MacOS hosts

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Nick Desaulniers <nick.desaulniers@xxxxxxxxx>

When building the Linux kernel on an aarch64 MacOS based host, if we don't
specify a value for ARCH when invoking make, we default to arm and thus
multi_v7_defconfig rather than the expected arm64 and arm64's defconfig.

This is because subarch.include invokes `uname -m` which on MacOS hosts
evaluates to `arm64` but on Linux hosts evaluates to `aarch64`,

This allows us to build ARCH=arm64 natively on MacOS (as in ARCH need
not be specified on an aarch64-based system).

Utilize a negative lookahead regular expression to avoid matching arm64.

Add a separate expression to support for armv.* as per error reported by
Nicolas Schier [1].
