They do the same thing for the x86_64 ia32-compat and x86_64 native vDSOs, respectively. Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86_64 ia32 vDSO: install unstripped copies on disk Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86_64 vDSO: install unstripped copies on disk Andrew called them x86_64-ia32-vdso-install-unstripped-copies-on-disk x86_64-vdso-install-unstripped-copies-on-disk The names/subjects are not identical, but differ in having "ia32" or not. That is really the only difference between the two patches, too. > TBD this needs a proper changelog/subject from Roland. I have no idea what > it does I don't now what is unclear about the log entry. Yes, each log entry says the same thing after the first (Subject) line. Each one relates to a different arch/x86_64/subdirectory/Makefile that creates vDSO images. Prepend "This applies to the x86_64/vdso native vDSO building." or "This applies to the x86_64/ia32 vDSO building." to the log if you prefer.
