[PATCH 4.19 008/138] kbuild: Use uname for LINUX_COMPILE_HOST detection

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

 



4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chris Down <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1e66d50ad3a1dbf0169b14d502be59a4b1213149 upstream.

`hostname` may not be present on some systems as it's not mandated by
POSIX/SUSv4. This isn't just a theoretical problem: on Arch Linux,
`hostname` is provided by `inetutils`, which isn't part of the base
distribution.

    ./scripts/mkcompile_h: line 38: hostname: command not found

Use `uname -n` instead, which is more likely to be available (and
mandated by standards).
