Cover letter [PATCH 0/1] kernel: provide scripts in the sysroot
Richard/Saul,
Khem noticed that he was seeing frequent "modpost missing" messages in his logs for out of tree builds. This is due to the missing kernel scripts, which we remove for packaging reasons.
Rather than jiggle the kernel install rule itself, experience shows that just heading to the sysroot and re-creating the scripts is easy enough to do.
[PATCH 1/1] kernel: restore scripts in the sysroot
When building against the sysroot, out of tree modules can require modpost and other utilities normally found in the kernel's scripts directory. For the kernel source in the staging dir, these scripts have been removed to avoid mixing archiectures when packaging kernel-dev (among other things).
Rather than further complicate the kernel's install rule, or its packaging, we can jump into the sysroot and restore the scripts by building them, hence making them available to packages that need them.
Khem confirmed that the same fix worked for him.
Cheers,
Bruce
