PATCH v2 1/1 Another attempt to Consolidate x86 makefiles & tests

This is the acutally the 3rd attempt.

These patches consolidate the make files & tests in user director for x86. This is to allow other architectures easier integration into the kvm source.

PATCH 1/1 consolidate x86 user makefiles

# HG changeset patch
# User Jerone Young <jyoung5-r/[email protected]> # Date 1193196215 18000
# Node ID 556d8fcfcbd72586111f58a1914210e85a9a9d8a
# Parent 707451c0b5ab24ac40bf29885c1b660201eae203 consolidate x86 user makefiles

This patch removes arch specific make rules for x86 & x86-64 out of the main Makefile. These rules are now moved into config-$(ARCH) and a new file config-x86-common has been created to consolidate common rules amongst x86 & x86-64.

This version takes comments from the list into consideration.

Re: [kvm-ppc-devel] [PATCH 1 of 2] consolidate x86 user makefiles

In reply to jyoung5-r/[email protected]
Quoted 10 lines · On Tue, 2007-10-23 at 22:26 -0500, jyoung5-r/[email protected].…

This patch removes arch specific make rules for x86 & x86-64 out of the
main Makefile. These rules are now moved into config-$(ARCH) and a new file config-x86-common has been created to consolidate common rules amongst x86 & x86-64.

This version takes comments from the list into consideration.

This is the acutally the 3rd attempt.

These patches consolidate the make files & tests in user director for x86. This is to allow other architectures easier integration into the kvm source.

Food fight seems to have died down, so I applied both. But please:

- generate patches with '-M' to detect renames. those file moves would have been much easier on the old eyes.
- make sure your patches don't add trailing whitespace

userspace repositories

In reply to a message not in the archive

Avi, what do you think about breaking the kvm-userspace repository into separate kvm-qemu, kvmctl, and libkvm repositories?

Firstly, I think kvmctl and libkvm should stay together.

I'm not thrilled about breaking up the repositories even more; it makes bisecting more difficult. Perhaps git's module support can help here.

Firstly, I think kvmctl and libkvm should stay together.

Why? As far as I can see, there are currently two independent consumers of libkvm: qemu and kvmctl. At the very least they should live in separate directories.

Also, having libkvm on its own means that only one package has to include kernel headers and deal with that configure mess. The userspace apps really have no need for that...

They're both small, and tied up together. I'd rather support one small package than two small packages.

Agree about separate directories.

kvmctl is intended to be a small test driver, no more.
