# Script to apply kernel patches.
#   usage: patch-kernel [ sourcedir [ patchdir [ stopversion ] [ -acxx ] ] ]
#     The source directory defaults to /usr/src/linux, and the patch
#     directory defaults to the current directory.
# e.g.
#   scripts/patch-kernel . ..
#      Update the kernel tree in the current directory using patches in the
#      directory above to the latest Linus kernel
#   scripts/patch-kernel . .. -ac
#      Get the latest Linux kernel and patch it with the latest ac patch
#   scripts/patch-kernel . .. 2.4.9
#      Gets standard kernel 2.4.9
#   scripts/patch-kernel . .. 2.4.9 -ac
#      Gets 2.4.9 with latest ac patches
#   scripts/patch-kernel . .. 2.4.9 -ac11
#      Gets 2.4.9 with ac patch ac11
#   Note: It uses the patches relative to the Linus kernels, not the
#   ac to ac relative patches
#
# It determines the current kernel version from the top-level Makefile.
# It then looks for patches for the next sublevel in the patch directory.
# This is applied using "patch -p1 -s" from within the kernel directory.
# A check is then made for "*.rej" files to see if the patch was
# successful.  If it is, then all of the "*.orig" files are removed.
#
#       Nick Holloway <Nick.Holloway@alfie.demon.co.uk>, 2nd January 1995.
#
# Added support for handling multiple types of compression. What includes
# gzip, bzip, bzip2, zip, compress, and plaintext.
#
#       Adam Sulmicki <adam@cfar.umd.edu>, 1st January 1997.
#
# Added ability to stop at a given version number
# Put the full version number (i.e. 2.3.31) as the last parameter
#       Dave Gilbert <linux@treblig.org>, 11th December 1999.

# Fixed previous patch so that if we are already at the correct version
# not to patch up.
#
# Added -ac option, use -ac or -ac9 (say) to stop at a particular version
#       Dave Gilbert <linux@treblig.org>, 29th September 2001.
#
# Add support for (use of) EXTRAVERSION (to support 2.6.8.x, e.g.);
# update usage message;
# fix some whitespace damage;
# be smarter about stopping when current version is larger than requested;
#	Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>, 2004-AUG-18.
#
# Add better support for (non-incremental) 2.6.x.y patches;
# If an ending version number if not specified, the script automatically
# increments the SUBLEVEL (x in 2.6.x.y) until no more patch files are found;
# however, EXTRAVERSION (y in 2.6.x.y) is never automatically incremented
# but must be specified fully.
#
# patch-kernel does not normally support reverse patching, but does so when
# applying EXTRAVERSION (x.y) patches, so that moving from 2.6.11.y to 2.6.11.z
# is easy and handled by the script (reverse 2.6.11.y and apply 2.6.11.z).
#	Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>, 2005-APR-08.
