Bug #13221
closed
mapfile name for unix should be less generic
Added by Jason King over 1 year ago.
Updated over 1 year ago.
Description
Upstream of Joyent OS-7838:
While addressing OS-7835, I discovered that all of the uts/*/unix Makefiles use the generic MAPFILE name to build the unix module, rather than something more specific. This gets in the way of other machine-specific modules using such a name that makes sense. The variable for the unix mapfile should probably be renamed to UNIX_MAPFILE.
This change has been in SmartOS for over a year (and thus has been subjected to many builds).
Additionally, after applying the change to illumos-gate, I built and booted an amd64 kernel without issue.
- Description updated (diff)
Toomas was also kind enough to build and successfully boot this change on Sparc as well.
- Status changed from New to Closed
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
