Subject: [PATCH RFC 3/5] kbuild/extable: Hook up sortextable into the build system.
Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2011 11:37:46 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1321645068-20475-4-git-send-email-ddaney.cavm@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1321645068-20475-1-git-send-email-ddaney.cavm@gmail.com>
From: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com>
Define a config variable BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT to control build time
sorting of the kernel's exception table.
Patch Makefile to do the sorting when BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT is
selected.
