Re: [PATCH] kbuild: create .kernelrelease at *config step

Is this expected ?

$ cd /usr/local/src/kernel/linux-2.6.16
$ make O=/home/fredlwm/objdir/ oldconfig
...
make -C /usr/local/src/kernel/linux-2.6.16 O=/home/fredlwm/objdir .kernelrelease
Makefile:480: .config: No such file or directory

.config is in /home/fredlwm/objdir

.kernelrelease gets created in /usr/local/src/kernel/linux-2.6.16 . I thought nothing would be written to the sources directory. What if I were on a read-only filesystem ?

I didn't try to build it. Are these harmless ?
