Subject: [patch 2/3] kbuild - remove old LDFLAGS_BLOB from Makefiles - docco update
Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2004 21:44:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040830194432.85FC1529B@zion.localdomain> (raw)
The LDFLAGS_BLOB var (which used to be defined in arch Makefiles) is now unused,
as specified inside usr/initramfs_data.S. So this patch updates the docs to mark
it as unused. You may prefer to drop the entire section about it, however I
wanted to make clear that this is a change from previous doc versions.
