eradicate bashisms in scripts/patch-kernel

2011-04-04T12:58:33Z

Silence a remaining annoying (or worse, irritating - "is my entire patched tree broken now!?") bashism-related message that occurs when /bin/sh is configured to instead deploy dash, a POSIX-compliant shell, as is the pretty much standard case on e.g. Debian. Current kernel version is 2.6.38 ( Flesh-Eating Bats with Fangs) ===> linux-2.6.38.patch-kernel_test/scripts/patch-kernel: line 253: [: =: unary operator expected <=== cannot find patch file: patch-2.6.39 Signed-off-by: Andreas Mohr Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

bugfix for scripts/patch-kernel in 2.6 sublevel stepping

2008-08-06T20:11:33Z

scripts/patch-kernel script can't patch a tree, say, from 2.6.25 to 2.6.26.1, because of a wrong comparison in context of patching 2.6.x base. Fix it. Acked-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

kbuild: eradicate bashisms in scripts/patch-kernel

2008-01-28T22:14:37Z

Make the patch-kernel shell script sufficiently compatible with POSIX shells, i.e., remove bashisms from scripts/patch-kernel. This means that it now also works on dash 0.5.3-5 and still works on bash 3.1dfsg-8. Full changelog: - replaced non-standard "==" by standard "=" - replaced non-standard "source" statement by POSIX "dot" command - use leading ./ on mktemp filename to force the tempfile to a local directory, so that the search path is not used - replace bash syntax to remove leading dot by similar POSIX syntax - added missing (optional/not required) $ signs to shell variable names Signed-off-by: Andreas Mohr Acked-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

[PATCH] patch-kernel: support non-incremental 2.6.x.y 'stable' patches

2005-05-05T23:36:40Z

Add better support for (non-incremental) 2.6.x.y patches; If an ending version number if not specified, the script automatically increments the SUBLEVEL (x in 2.6.x.y) until no more patch files are found; however, EXTRAVERSION (y in 2.6.x.y) is never automatically incremented but must be specified fully. patch-kernel does not normally support reverse patching, but does so when applying EXTRAVERSION (x.y) patches, so that moving from 2.6.11.y to 2.6.11.z is easy and handled by the script (reverse 2.6.11.y and apply 2.6.11.z).

scripts/patch-kernel: use EXTRAVERSION

2004-08-23T00:39:01Z

Update 'scripts/patch-kernel' to support EXTRAVERSION. Update usage message text. Fix some whitespace. Handle command line arg3 (stop-version) more carefully. No changes to -ac patch updates. EXTRAVERSION handling: any leading '.' and any trailing modifier (beginning with any punctuation, like "-ac" or "_kexec" or "+mm") are stripped, trying to get down to just a number. Then 'patch-kernel' increments EXTRAVERSION as long as it can apply "patch-V.P.S.X*". When that file isn't found, it resets EXTRAVERSION to "" and increments SUBLEVEL (as before this patch). Works for me. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

[PATCH] Fix bashisms in scripts_patch-kernel

2002-06-20T06:40:32Z

The following trivial patch makes the patch-kernel script executable by a bare bone POSIX shell like ash. Either that, or the interpreter line has to be changed to /bin/bash. The same patch applies to 2.4 (with some line offset).
