SubjectRe: [PATCH] /proc/config.gz (take #2)
Date
Well, this is the real mccoy, folks. NJL's patch works a treat on my 2.0.25
system now. It should go into 2.0.34 if I could make a plea ... and on
my system (which has uncompressing libraries), all I have to do is a
cat /proc/config rather than a gunzip -c /proc/config.gz, and out comes
the list :-).

The increase in compressed kernel size appears to be about 1.2KB, as
far as I can tell. I didn't measure the running systems. The extra data
structure is very small. Under 1KB in my case. I think that will be the
memory footprint. I'm happy to donate it.

The output from "cat /proc/config" (gunzip -c /proc/config.gz) is


EXPERIMENTAL=y
MODULES=y
KERNELD=y
NET=y
PCI=y
PCI_OPTIMIZE=y
SYSVIPC=y

BLK_DEV_IDESCSI=y
BLK_DEV_IDE_PCMCIA=y
BLK_DEV_RZ1000=y
BLK_DEV_TRITON=y

bla blah. Here is the patch as adapted for 2.0.*. I made a mistake and
put one too many $(MAKE) proconfig's in the top Makefile, but I don't
know which to remove.
