Perhaps we could add some logic to check if common/Kconfig exist?At this point rather than adding extra logic to support different still-experimental versions, I'd rather just have a different branch. Maybe have a branch per Xen release?And I also wonder if the --xen-debug option removal should be a seperate patch?Well the two are related -- the motivation to use the .config is because the debug flag is now controlled by the .config rather than the command-line argument.But not in the 4.7 that is going out - that 'debug=y' is non-Kconfig? OK, I'll split it into two. Feel free to create a stable-47 branch in livepatch-build-tools.git with only the .config patch. Personally, I'd rather not spend much time backporting stuff to support a tech preview feature on an older branch. -- Ross Lagerwall _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
