Subject: [PATCH 6/7] kconfig: keep config.gz around even if CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC is not set
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2009 14:50:28 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090430185222.696995168@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20090430185022.122124349@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0006-kconfig-keep-config.gz-around-even-if-CONFIG_IKCONF.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1120 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

If CONFIG_IKCONFIG is set but CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC is not, then
gcc will optibize the config.gz out, because nobody uses it.

This patch adds "__used" to the config.gz data to keep it around so that
code like extract-ikconfig can still find it.

[ Impact: allow extract-ikconfig to find config.gz ]
