Hey, for no other reason than the fact that I'll be off-line for a
week.

Of course, I could force everybody to just use git (and when I'm emperor
of the world, don't think I won't!), but it seems some people want to
just test official releases.  Even if they are just -rc's.

By the time I'm back, Andrew will have fixed all my bugs, and I'll
release it as 2.6.15 and take all the credit.

Mwahahahaaa

In Uml, many definitions are borrowed from underlying subarch headers (with
#include <asm/arch/stuff.h>).  And it has become annoying to keep switching
tag files all time, so by default index the underlying subarch headers too.
Btw, it adds negligible space to the tags file (less than 1M surely, IIRC it
was around 500k over 40M).

Finally, preserve the ALLSOURCE_ARCHS command line option (I hope) - if it is
set, it is used for headers too as before.  But check my construct please, I
didn't test this.

As per the new release rules: two weeks of merging, and then an -rc1 and
calming down for the next release.

After the last merge of the new unified 'powerpc' architecture, ppc64 no
longer compiles cleanly as a standalone architecture.  Some bits and
pieces still exist as files under the old ppc64 hierarchy, but the old
"ARCH=ppc64" is dead.

So if "uname" says ppc64, that now implies that the default architecture
should be "powerpc".

I have to revert the recent addition of -imacros to the Makefile to get my
tool chain to build.  Without the change, below, I get:

Note that this looks entirely like a toolchain bug.  Here is the offending command:

[pid 12163] execve("/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0", ["/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0", "-lang-asm", "-nostdinc", "-Iinclude", "-Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default", "-D__GNUC__=3", "-D__GNUC_MINOR__=2", "-D__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__=2", "-D__GXX_ABI_VERSION=102", "-D__ELF__", "-Dunix", "-D__gnu_linux__", "-Dlinux", "-D__ELF__", "-D__unix__", "-D__gnu_linux__", "-D__linux__", "-D__unix", "-D__linux", "-Asystem=posix", "-D__NO_INLINE__", "-D__STDC_HOSTED__=1", "-Acpu=i386", "-Amachine=i386", "-Di386", "-D__i386", "-D__i386__", "-D__tune_i386__", "-D__KERNEL__", "-D__ASSEMBLY__", "-isystem", "/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/include", "-imacros", "include/linux/autoconf.h", "-MD", "arch/i386/kernel/.entry.o.d", "arch/i386/kernel/entry.S", "-o", "/tmp/ccOlsFJR.s"]

Which should execute properly, I think.  But it does not:

gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)

Deprecating the -imacros fixes the build for me.  It does not appear to be a
simple argument overflow problem in trapcpp0, since deprecating all the defines
reproduces the problem as well.  Also, switching -imacros to -include fixes the
problem.

Include autoconf.h into every kernel compilation via the gcc command line
using -imacros.  This ensures that we have the kernel configuration
included from the start, rather than relying on each file having #include
<linux/config.h> as appropriate.  History has shown that this is something
which is difficult to get right.

Since we now include the kernel configuration automatically, make
configcheck becomes meaningless, so remove it.

"Better late than never"

The -rc4 release was supposed to be the last -rc, but here goes.  The
RCU fixes and the swiotlb changes need an -rc for final testing.

The variable RCS_TAR_IGNORE is used in scripts/packaging/Makefile, but not
exported from the main Makefile, so it's never used.

This results in the rpm targets being very unhappy in quilted trees.

When introducing the generic asm-offsets.h support the dependency
chain for the prepare targets was changed. All build scripts expecting
include/asm/asm-offsets.h to be made when using the prepare target would broke.
With the limited number of prepare targets left in arch Makefiles
the trivial solution was to introduce a new arch specific target: archprepare

The dependency chain looks like this now:

prepare
  |
  +--> prepare0
         |
         +--> archprepare
                |
		+--> scripts_basic
                +--> prepare1
                       |
                       +---> prepare2
                               |
                               +--> prepare3

So prepare 3 is processed before prepare2 etc.
This guaantees that the asm symlink, version.h, scripts_basic
are all updated before archprepare is processed.

prepare0 which build the asm-offsets.h file will need the
actions performed by archprepare.

The head target is now named prepare, because users scripts will most
likely use that target, but prepare-all has been kept for compatibility.
Updated Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt.

Splitting of autoconf.h requires that split-include was built before,
and
needs to be-re-done when split-include changes. This dependency was
previously missing. Additionally, since autoconf.h is (suppoosed to
be)
generated as a side effect of executing config targets, include/linux
should be created prior to running the respective sub-make.

Building asm-offsets.h has been moved to a seperate Kbuild file
located in the top-level directory. This allow us to share the
functionality across the architectures.

The old rules in architecture specific Makefiles will die
in subsequent patches.

Furhtermore the usual kbuild dependency tracking is now used
when deciding to rebuild asm-offsets.s. So we no longer risk
to fail a rebuild caused by asm-offsets.c dependencies being touched.

With this common rule-set we now force the same name across
all architectures. Following patches will fix the rest.

Too many changes to release a final 2.6.13.

If CONFIG_AUTO_LOCALVERSION is set, the user is using a git-based tree, and the
current HEAD is not referred to by any tags in .git/refs/tags/, append -g and
the first 8 characters of the commit to the version string.  This makes it
easier to use git-bisect, and/or to do a daily build, without trampling on your
older, working builds, or accidentally setting up conflicting sets of modules.

During last phase of the build the following message were displayed:

This message appears due to slightly changed semantics
of cmd and if_changed_rule.
The easy fix was to insert a dummy command first in rule_ksym_ld.
The alternative was to redo part of this processing in the top-level
Makefile - a volatile area that I try to avoid.
