The cleanest way to do this is to set AM_LIBTOOLFLAGS = --silent. However,
AM_LIBTOOLFLAGS is not honored by automake-1.9.6-2.1 which is what I have
been using. To cleanly handle this I am updating to automake-1.11-3 which
is why it looks like there is a lot of churn in the Makefiles.
- Allow checking for exported symbols in both Module.symvers
and Module.symvers. My stock SLES kernel ships an objects
directory with Module.symvers, yet produces a Module.symvers
in the local build directory.
An update to the build system to properly support all commonly
used Makefile targets these include:
make all # Build everything
make install # Install everything
make clean # Clean up build products
make distclean # Clean up everything
make dist # Create package tarball
make srpm # Create package source RPM
make rpm # Create package binary RPMs
make tags # Create ctags and etags for everything
Extra care was taken to ensure that the source RPMs are fully
rebuildable against Fedora/RHEL/Chaos kernels. To build binary
RPMs from the source RPM for your system simply run:
rpmbuild --rebuild spl-x.y.z-1.src.rpm
This will produce two binary RPMs with correct 'requires'
dependencies for your kernel. One will contain all spl modules
and support utilities, the other is a devel package for compiling
additional kernel modules which are dependant on the spl.
spl-x.y.z-1_<kernel version>.x86_64.rpm
spl-devel-x.y.2-1_<kernel version>.x86_64.rpm
