It modifies the behavior of prepare_kernel, so that it does not modify the kernel source tree (except that it must apply the Adeos patch), but instead generates a patch file that has the same effect when applied against that Adeos-patched kernel source tree. Therefore, it is useful for creating Xenomai packages for GNU/Linux distributions, such as packages based on dh-kpatches in Debian, which require to have patch files. Ah, OK. I understood what it does but I did not realize what its useful for. Thanks. Wolfgang. ___ Xenomai-core mailing list Xenomai-core@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-core
