[ptxdist] Kernel CONFIG_LOCALVERSION

[ptxdist] Kernel CONFIG_LOCALVERSION

[Hänel-Baas, Alexander]

Hi

Is there a ptxdist variable that contains the kernel localversion? 
Ore must i grap the kernel .config file to get this info?
I need this in my own rules/ file.

I used ptxdist2014.

With best regards,
Alexander Hänel-Baas

What does "localversion" mean in your context?

$ ptxdist print PTXCONF_KERNEL_VERSION

at least outputs the current platformconfig setting.

Hi Jürgen

Thank you for your reply.

> What does "localversion" mean in your context?

I mean the kernel CONFIG_LOCALVERSION in the kernel .config file. I can set this localversion in
ptxdist menuconfig kernel -> general setup <- Local version.

Normally this string was append to kernel version.

Your suggest is right but I miss the local version append.

Look here:
$ ptxdist print PTXCONF_KERNEL_VERSION
give: 3.14.17

But in the kernel .config file stands:
#
# General setup
#
CONFIG_INIT_ENV_ARG_LIMIT=32
CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE=""
CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST=y
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="alex"                 <- here!!!
# CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO is not set

So I should have get: 3.14.17-alex.

There is no problem with ptxdist, always works fine. 
Only i need access to this CONFIG_LOCALVERSION string
in my own rules file because we build different packages depend
on the Locale version from the Kernel.

Regards,
Alexander

You could scan (by sourcing) the file

 ${PTXDIST_PLATFORMCONFIGDIR}/${PTXCONF_KERNEL_CONFIG}

because this file is managed by PTXdist and it will be copied to your kernel 
prior building it (and so ends up as ".config" in the kernel's source tree).

Juergen

Yes, actually I do that.
I hope we get: $ ptxdist print PTXCONF_KERNEL_LOCALVERSION in the future.

$ ptxdist bash eval ptxd_get_kconfig '${PTXDIST_PLATFORMCONFIGDIR}/${PTXCONF_KERNEL_CONFIG}' CONFIG_LOCALVERSION

Not really nice, but it should work. Not the eval and the quotes. These are
necessary to make sure that the bash with the correct environment evaluates
PTXDIST_PLATFORMCONFIGDIR and PTXCONF_KERNEL_CONFIG.
