2011-11-14linux: make vmlinux target available to all architecturesThomas De Schampheleire
The 'vmlinux' target in the linux build directory is a generic target. It may not be directly bootable for all architectures, but for projects where a custom bootloader is used, it can be of value. Previously, this target was only available for mips architectures. This patch removes this restriction.

The vmlinux kernel target is valid for powerpc kernels too. In fact this broke the qemu sample config. Signed-off-by: Gustavo Zacarias <gustavo@zacarias.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>

2011-09-18linux: Add Linux Kernel extensions menuThomas De Schampheleire
Add a kernel sub-menu (called "Linux Kernel Extensions"), which makes possible to patch it or tweak the kernel build step. * All linux/linux-ext-*.mk files will be read by the make process. * The menu can be customized in "linux/Config.ext.in".

2011-04-01linux: Add support to specify special Kernel Image make targetMartin Hicks
This is useful for ARCHes like PowerPC that have a whole lot of special targets for each different board. The kernel image target tells make which OpenFirmware machine description file is combined into the kernel binary.

2010-12-17linux: add support for ELF vmlinux imageThomas Petazzoni
The ELF vmlinux image found at the root of the kernel source tree is the format that Qemu needs when emulating mips(el) or ppc targets, so add support for it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2010-12-16linux: support a space-separated list of patchesThomas Petazzoni
The kernel being a component that often needs a fairly important set of changes to be adapted to a particular hardware platform, having maximum flexibility on the patching process is a nice thing. Therefore, as per the discussions from the Buildroot Developer Day, we add a mechanism to apply a list of patches (that could come either from URLs, local files or local directories).

2010-09-29linux: restrict output image formats to the appropriate archesThomas Petazzoni

2010-06-22New, simpler, infrastructure for building the Linux kernelThomas Petazzoni
This patch introduces a single, simple, infrastructure to build the Linux kernel. The configuration is limited to : * Kernel version: a fixed recent stable version, same as kernel headers version (for internal toolchains only), custom stable version, or custom tarball URL * Kernel patch: either a local file, directory or an URL * Kernel configuration: either the name of a defconfig or the location of a custom configuration file * Kernel image: either uImage, bzImage, zImage or vmlinux.
