We are building an automated system to test kernels weekly and need to
provide an rpm to our QA dept. We would like to use the ability to create
kernel rpms already in the kernel's Makefile, but need the vmlinux file
included in the rpm for later debugging.
This patch adds a compressed vmlinux to the kernel rpm when doing a
make rpm-pkg or binrpm-pkg and upon install places the vmlinux file in /boot.

The below is a simplistic fix for "make deb-pkg"; it splits the
firmware out to a linux-firmware-image package and adds an
(unversioned) Suggests to the linux package for this firmware.

Currently, if we do a 'make rpm-pkg' without the _smp_mflags rpm macro
defined, the build fails with:
[snip]
Executing(%build): /bin/bash -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.67959
+ umask 022
+ cd /home/jk/devel/kernel-snapshot/rpm/BUILD
+ cd kernel-2.6.26
+ make clean
+ make '%{_smp_mflags}'
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `%{_smp_mflags}'. Stop.
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.67959 (%build)
This change uses the 'null if not set' reference to the _smp_mflags
macro instead.

This is patch to fix incorrect mkspec script to make rpm correctly at 2.6.27 vanilla kernel.
This is regression in 2.6.27. 2.6.26 make rpm work good.
In 2.6.27 'make rpm' say error from rpmbuild "Many unpacked files (*.fw)."

Current Debian's kernel-modules depend on matching linux-image-$version, though
Linux's make deb-pkg build a .deb that 'Provides: kernel-image-$version' only.
The following patch adds the Debian-compliant 'Provides', leaving the default
one; hopely this will make way all happy.

The default target for most powerpc platforms is zImage. The
zImage however is in arch/powerpc/boot and the mkspec script
was set up to get the kernel from the top level of the kernel
tree. This patch copies vmlinux to arch/powerpc/boot and then
copies the kernel to the tmp directory so the rpm can be made.

The kbuild system takes advantage of an incorrect behavior in GNU make.
Once this behavior is fixed, all files in the kernel rebuild every time,
even if nothing has changed. This patch ensures kbuild works with both
the incorrect and correct behaviors of GNU make.
For more details on the incorrect behavior, see:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2006-03/msg00003.html
Changes in this patch:
- Keep all targets that are to be marked .PHONY in a variable, PHONY.
- Add .PHONY: $(PHONY) to mark them properly.
- Remove any $(PHONY) files from the $? list when determining whether
targets are up-to-date or not.

Fix out-of-tree builds for the tar-pkg targets
When I wrote the buildtar script, I didn't even think about
out-of-tree builds because I didn't use these back then. This patch
throughoutly uses ${objtree} instead of `pwd`.
Also, the kernel version is no longer manually built. Instead, it will
properly use $KERNELRELEASE . Installing modules is only done if
CONFIG_MODULES is set.

Make the deb-pkg build target understand the "um" arch and set up the
package and directory structure to match a mainline-Debian style
user-mode-linux package.
This is primarily so that it stops matching, exactly, the naming
convention used by normal, non-UML kernels generated by this command.
Installing "linux-2.6.11" and "linux-2.6.11", where one is a UML kernel
doesn't do the right thing. This fixes that.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
