Title: Kernel git
Post by: grisxa on February 22, 2010, 03:50:49 PM

Hello!
It is quite hard to guess how tinycore kernel patch (http://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/2.x/release/src/2.6.29.1-tinycore.patch.gz) was gathered.
Is there git repository (or other SCM) for the tinycore kernel? It would help to rebase the patch for newer kernels.

No, there isn't. It was pieced up old-school.

Expect a patch series instead for the 3.x kernel.

It's me again  :)

I've checked TCL 3.0 kernel sources against git.kernel.org and have found that besides v2.6.33.3 tag (and published TCL patches (http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/3.x/release/src/kernel/33-patch-series/)) there are some unversioned files:

drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r100_reg_safe.h
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r200_reg_safe.h
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r300_reg_safe.h
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/r420_reg_safe.h
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/rn50_reg_safe.h
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/rs600_reg_safe.h
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/rv515_reg_safe.h

Where were they taken from?

They are generated by the build process, see the Makefile in that dir.

Ah! Thank you!
