2008-07-20Complete firmware compilation scriptsMauro Carvalho Chehab
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> This patch completes firmware compilation scripts: - linux/firmware/Makefile is just a copy of kernel script make file. It is not currently used by the building system; - Added two new targets for firmware compilation and instalation; - Fixes the COPYING file to explicitly state that the firmwares aren't covered by GPL; - make distclean will also cleanup the firmwares.

2007-12-10Improve check.pl to support gcc error style, and terseMauro Carvalho Chehab
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> With "make checkpatch", all c-compilation error parsers will be able to handle the error codes, allowing the user to navigate inside codingstyle errors as if they where generated by gcc. "make terse" will produce error codes using terse syntax, also common on development tools. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2007-12-10Add a tool for checking codingstyle and report to emacs "Compile" commandMauro Carvalho Chehab
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> For those who develp using emacs, checking a patch is now a matter of asking emacs to compile, using "make checkemacs" command. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>

2006-04-28Improved make release method to allow compiling against an arbitrary dirMauro Carvalho Chehab
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org> Now, with make DIR=<foo>, it is possible to compile V4L/DVB with a non-installed dir. This will allow better checking on compatibility issues (especially for -git tree) Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>
2006-04-27move install / rminstall invocation rules to v4l/MakefileMichael Krufky
From: Michael Krufky <mkrufky@linuxtv.org> This patch moves the 'make install' and 'make rminstall' rules into the central Makefile. This allows for us to assign dependencies to these rules, so that modules built as a reult of a tree-merge don't have to be installed separately. Now, instead of doing 'make install && make ivtv-install', the simple command, 'make install' will call the sub-install rules and take care of the entire task.
