Hi Joao,
Hi Joe and Josh,
Thanks for the quick feedback, I'll be looking forward for your comments
once you have the change to dig deeper :). I'll apply all typo-fixes,
add klpclean to the PHONY targets and change the quiet_cmd invocation as
suggested in v2.
For identifying livepatches during the build process, a flag variable
LIVEPATCH_$(basetarget).o is considered in scripts/Makefile.build. This
way, set this flag for the livepatch sample Makefile in
samples/livepatch/Makefile.
I've never tried building a livepatch out of tree (is that even
possible?) but does this make it any more/less harder?
Tbh, I never had tried it before, so I just emulated the process and it
was simple and successful. All it required in addition to what is
regular, was the introduction of the "LIVEPATCH_($bastarget).o := y"
into the Makefile. All else was implicitly handled by Kbuild.
Best,
Joao
