The proposed patch allows a defconfig to be changed to big or little endian by adding "make beconfig" and "make leconfig" functionality.
This follows on from a discussion with existing arm64 builds and lack of ability to build for a big endian defconfig as such defconfig is not in the upstream kernel. Discussion started on the arm mailing list: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg462636.html The same problem applies to various architecture families so it makes sense to apply at a higher level as proposed. This patchset is based on v4.4-rc1 and is available from github: repo: https://github.com/Broadcom/arm64-linux.git branch: kconfig-endian-v1 Scott Branden (1): kconfig: add CPU endian selection beconfig and leconfig kernel/configs/be.config | 1 + kernel/configs/le.config | 1 + scripts/kconfig/Makefile | 10 ++++++++++ 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+) create mode 100644 kernel/configs/be.config create mode 100644 kernel/configs/le.config -- 2.5.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
