Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in all.config. For a fix the diffstat is nice: 6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-) The patch reverts these commits: - 0f855aa6 ("kconfig: add helper to set config symbol from environment variable") - 2a113281 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to set 64BIT with all*config targets") Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were not needed. With this patch we have following behaviour: # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...] option \ host arch | 32bit | 64bit ===================================================== ./. | 32bit | 64bit ARCH=x86 | 32bit | 32bit ARCH=i386 | 32bit | 32bit ARCH=x86_64 | 64bit | 64bit The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes precedence over the configuration. So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel no matter what the configuration says. The configuration will be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the other way around. This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no suprises here. make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit and 64-bit using menuconfig.

The variable K64BIT can now be used to select the value of CONFIG_64BIT. This is for example useful for powerpc to generate allmodconfig for both bit sizes - like this: make ARCH=powerpc K64BIT=y make ARCH=powerpc K64BIT=n To use this the Kconfig file must use "64BIT" as the config value to select between 32 and 64 bit.

Mikael Pettersson pointed out to me that a recent patch of mine (commit 620034c8 ), that made some corrections to the README file, accidentally listed the Cris architecture twice. Whoops.

Here's a small patch which - adds a few archs to the current list of supported platforms. - adds a few missing slashes at the end of URLs. - adds a few references to additional documentation. - adds "make config" to the list of possible configuration targets. - makes a few other minor changes.

The emergence of so-called "dot releases" that are non-incremental patches against a base kernel requires different handling of patches (revert previous patches before applying the newest one).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
