In a RELENG_4 kernel build, I'm accustomed to setting 'config foo' in
a kernel configuration file and ending up with a kernel called 'foo'.
In current, kern.pre.mk contains:
KERNEL_KO?= kernel
KERNEL?= kernel
KODIR?= /boot/${KERNEL}
however kern.post.mk only uses KERNEL_KO, so even though config(8) has
set KERNEL for me, that name only gets used for the boot directory.
There doesn't seem to be any way of getting KERNEL_KO set from the
kernel config file.
It would make more sense to me if kern.pre.mk contained this:
KERNEL?= kernel
KERNEL_KO?= ${KERNEL}
KODIR?= /boot/${KERNEL}
Comments?
