Hi,
I have a question about the frequent patches Russell generates. I am
wondering if instead of generating patches against a stock 2.2.7 kernel,
for example, it would be possibly to generate a patch for 2.2.7 against
a 2.2.6 kernel with the last 2.2.6-rmk patch. Would this be beneficial
to anyone else? The reason I ask is, I have the kernel under a source
control system at work, including the rmk patches. We are currently at
2.2.5 plus pre-patch-2.2.5-rmk4. I want to go to 2.2.7 now, but am
seeing difficulties. The stock 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 patches apply okay and
get me to a 2.2.7 + 2.2.5-rmk4 + local modification level. When I go to
add the 2.2.7 patch, it doesn't apply cleanly, because I already have
some if it applied from the 2.2.5 patch. Is there an easy way to do
what I am trying to do? If not, is there anyone else that could benefit
from the type of patch I am describing? Russell, could you generate
these patches easily?
Thanks in advance for any tips or help.
