SubjectRe: 2.6.25-rc2 vdso_install breaks user "make install"
Date
Perhaps it makes more sense to have vdso_install be a dependency of
modules_install rather than install, since they both put things in /lib/modules.
The installed vdso images are potentially useful for a kernel when you
aren't bothering to build or install any modules, but those images are only
ever useful for sophisticated debugging uses anyway.

Sam, any thoughts? (See arch/x86/Makefile and arch/powerpc/Makefile.)

The only kind of install runs I actually care about are for packaging
system builds. There the packaged build does 'make vdso_install'
explicitly anyway (at least Fedora rpms' .spec does). So if the consensus
is just to drop the dependency on vdso_install completely, I don't object.


Thanks,
Roland
