Hacking on mkdep.c

Post by Sverker Wiber » Thu, 04 May 2000 04:00:00



I'm experimenting with mkdep.c from Linux 2.3.99 for an internal project
here at Ericsson Utvecklings AB. To make it more useful here, I have
made some modifications (flags to skip system headers, support for
Erlang) -- which I now want to fold back into the official distribution.

So: Who is in charge of mkdep.c?

(Btw, I was impressed by its mmap() trick.)

  Any help in the "Maintainers" file? Other than that I can't find a
good way to identify anyone who will accept patches for some particular
bit.

This was the best match I got in Maintainers...I'll ask him.

1. mkdep patch in 2.4.21-pre4-ac7 breaks pci/drivers


make drivers/pci/gen-devlist; pushd drivers/pci; ./gen-devlist < pci.ids; popd

Needed for all 2.4.x I've seen (lately at least).

Nope. It's the same with 2.4 from Marcelo.
