Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Move tool for generating initramfs cpio to scripts/
Date: Mon, 09 Mar 2026 08:56:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260309-move-gen_init_cpio-to-scripts-v1-0-0c5059b1ec5b@kernel.org> (raw)
initramfs cpio tools had been subject of several recent discussions on
linux-kbuild. Let's get two minor steps forward by enabling a
top-level target for building gen_init_cpio w/o the need of a valid
kbuild configuration [1] and move the tools for generating the builtin
initramfs from usr/ to scripts/ [2].
