--- Begin Message ---Package: kernel-package Version: 12.036+nmu3 Tags: patch I am rather new to the arm architecture and currently trying to get a couple of things working on a Raspberry Pi. Building kernel packages natively on a 700MHz single-core ARMv6 cpu takes ages, so I have been looking into possibilities for cross-building kernel packages from faster architectures. According to the make-kpkg manpage, the following command $ make-kpkg --arch armhf --cross_compile arm-rpi-linux-gnueabi- \ --revision 20131002 --append_to_version -rpi --initrd \ --us --uc --rootcmd fakeroot kernel_image should build an armhf kernel package on an amd64 host with an arm-rpi-linux-gnueabi-crosstoolchain installed. With kernel-package 12.036+nmu3 this fails with debian/ruleset/misc/checks.mk:36: *** Error. I do not know where the kernel image goes to [kimagedest undefined] The usual case for this is that I could not determine which arch or subarch this machine belongs to. Please specify a subarch, and try again.. Stop. It looks like there are just a few definitions for armhf missing, which are only used in the case of cross-building - native builds work fine. With the attached patch, cross-building kernel packages for armhf works for me, i.e. it results in working kernel-image packages for the Raspberry Pi. I had asked on debian-arm whether anybody sees issues with the patch, but have received no reply. Regards, Karsten -- Gem.

This is just for kernel-package, no changes have yet been made to the generated package build system. * Move way from git modules to a flatter structure, to better use standard git build frameworks. (Closes: #690002). * Updated the dependency to from module-init-tools -> kmod, since the module-init-tools is an obsolete transitional package. (Closes: #733701, #663358, ) * As of 3.8-rc2, kernel building requires bc(1. Added bc as a dependency for kernel-package, so that building a kernel will work again (Closes: #705587, #702600, #742674). * There are new configuration options called CONFIG_MODULE_*, which confuse the regular expression trying to detect whether modules are configured or not. Modified the regular expression to detect whether modules are configured as suggested by Stefan Gehn. (Closes: #696537). * make-kpkg failed to cross build armhf kernels. The supplied patch by Karsten Merker adds a few missing definitions which are only used in the case of cross-building (Closes: #728014). * The UTS_RELEASE definition was moved from $(KERN_ROOT)/include/linux/utsrelease.h to $(KERN_ROOT)/include/generated/utsrelease.h. The current version looks in both places. Fix sggested by mahashakti89, (Closes: #591793). * find -perm syntax changed from -perl +XXX to -prem /xxx. Fixed the use of find -perm in the one location I found it in (Closes: #724775). * Added a dependency on initramfs-tools into the generated linux-image packages, (Closes: #652637). * kernel package was not building a vmlinuz image for mipsel loongson cpu. Applied the patch from liushiwei to allow make-kpkg build vmlinuz on mipsel loongson cpu machines (Closes: #593857). * if the file include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h exists then include/linux/version.h must not be added to linux-headers-... package. The former should not exist, and if it does it is a mistake. (Closes: #734310). * dpkg: warning: obsolete option '--print-installation-architecture', use '--print-architecture' instead. Replaced all instances of dpkg --print-installation-architecture in the package. (Closes: #597637). * The following bugs were fixed in this release: * Bug fix #733701: "please do not depend on module-init-tools", thanks to [email protected] (Marco d'Itri) . * Bug fix #663358: "module-init-tools is now a transitional dummy package for kmod.Please add the correct depend", thanks to Domenico Pasella. * Bug fix #705587,: "As of 3.8-rc2, kernel building requires bc(1)", thanks to [email protected]. * Bug fix #702600: "1: bc: not found", thanks to Andrei Paulau * Bug fix #742674: "bc should be added to the dependencies", thanks to Erik Braun * Bug fix #690002: "Git package repository contains empty directory `debian/`", thanks to Paul Menzel. The problem is not that the git repository had an empty debian directory, the issue was that kernel-package uses git modules. One has to (recursively) expand the modules. However, whith this commit, we move away from git modules to a flat structure. * Bug fix #696537: "Fails to build linux-3.7.1 with module-support disabled", thanks to Stefan Gehn. Used the suggested new regular expression. * Bug fix #728014: "[PATCH] Fix cross-building armhf kernel packages", thanks to Karsten Merker. * Bug fix #591793: "Building 2.6.35 kernel fails with kernel-package 12.036", thanks to mahashakti89, * Bug fix #724775: "kernel-package uses deprecated find -perm +xxx syntax, please switch to find -perm /+++", thanks to Andreas Metzler. * Bug fix #652637: "Generated linux-image package should depend on initramfs-tools", thanks to Matthijs Kooijman. Added the suggested dependency * Bug fix #593857: "enable gzip for mipsel loongson cpu", thanks to liushiwei.
