Title:
Fix cross-compiling kernel
Status in Linaro Ubuntu Evaluation Builds:
Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Without this patch trying to cross-build ubuntu kernel source with:
sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
dpkg-buildpackage -aarmel
would fail when building perf due to incorrect "make $(CROSS_COMPILE)"
line. Unfortunately that is not enough, as binutils-dev is not
multiarch ready atm.
In order to cross-compile kernel in precise, building tools need to be
disabled (until binutils-dev is converted to multiarch). The attached
patch does that, and while at it replaces the incorrect "make
$(CROSS_COMPILE)" stanzas with $(kmake).
Please consider for you next precise upload so that precise kernels
packages can be cross-compiled without hacking.
