Wolfram Sang baa91878ab kbuild: fix typos (s/bin_shipped/bin.o_shipped/) in Documentation
The text always mentions ...bin.o_shipped, just the example makefiles
actually use ...bin_shipped. It was corrected in one place some time
ago, these ones seem to have been forgotten.

Richard Hacker 0d96fb20b7 kbuild: Add new Kbuild variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
This patch adds a new (Kbuild) Makefile variable KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS.
The space separated list of file names assigned to KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS
is used when calling scripts/mod/modpost during stage 2 of the Kbuild
process for non-kernel-tree modules.

The Makefile fragment in Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt looks to be
missing some braces.

Sam Ravnborg 040fcc819a kbuild: improved modversioning support for external modules
With following patch a second option is enabled to obtain
symbol information from a second external module when a
external module is build.
The recommended approach is to use a common kbuild file but
that may be impractical in certain cases.
With this patch one can copy over a Module.symvers from one
external module to make symbols (and symbol versions) available
for another external module.

Updated documentation in Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt

Sam Ravnborg 06300b21f4 kbuild: support building individual files for external modules
Support building individual files when dealing with separate modules.
So say you have a module named "foo" which consist of two .o files bar.o
and fun.o.

You can then do:
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.o
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.lst
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` bar.i
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` /            <= will build all .o files
                                           and link foo.o
make -C $KERNELSRC M=`pwd` foo.ko       <= will build the module
                                           and do the modpost step
					   to create foo.ko

The above will also work if the external module is placed in a
subdirectory using a hirachy of kbuild files.
Thanks to Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de> for initial feature
request / bug report.

Sam Ravnborg 253dfa6e46 kbuild: document howto build external modules using several directories
Update modules.txt with info how to build external modules
with files in several directories.
The question popped up on lkml often enough to warrant this,
let's see if people read this stuff - or google hits it.

Brian Strand 98a1e44411 kbuild: patch to Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt
First off, thanks for the kbuild docs, they are very useful!  Second,
I've attached a patch to modules.txt (from 2.6.14.2) with a "compile"
fix to a Makefile example, and some trivial spelling/grammar nits.
Please let me know if you want the patch in some other format (eg not
MIME), or if I should go bother someone else about it.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
