Here follows a few kbuild updates. None of these are critical fixes so they may live in -mm for a while, but safe to add to mainline. o Adaptions for solaris and cygwin - I would be happy to hear reports of outstanding issues when building a kernel on non-linux platforms - The primary target group for this is embedded people that often use non-Linux environements. o new static analyser tool 'namespacecheck' from Keith Owens. - Try it on your code and fix the issues - The kernel shall be build before running the tool: -> make namespacecheck Read comments in scripts/namespacecheck.pl to interpret the output - The output is comprehensive: ~8000 lines for allmodconfig kernel Patches not previously posted will be posted to lkml. Everything pushed to: bk://linux-sam.bkbits.net/kbuild Sam
