This reverts commit de679165f9.
localmodconfig does not work very well. It can only *un*select things
already enabled as modules if the module is not loaded by the host. It
won't select anything new, nor unselect unneeded things already set to
"y" instead of "m".
Maybe you think we can copy .config from a "mainstream" distro
(producing a highly modular kernel) and use "make localmodconfig", but
when we tested it with a Debian host kernel config, the resulted kernel
refuses to boot.
"make allmodconfig && make localmodconfig" does not work well either:
"allmodconfig" selects many things as y (these thing are not available
as a module) but "localmodconfig" fails to unselect them.
1. Declare UNIX98 PTY requirement in host system requirements and check
it in the script. All desktop or server distros should have it now,
but let's stop anyone from building on a embedded distro w/o UNIX98
PTY early...
2. Use Expect test suite as a guard against mishandled $LFS/dev/pts.
3. No need to test the basic function of Expect in Binutils anymore
because if ($LFS)/dev/pts is not good, the Expect test suite would
have failed.
Let's not encourage users to try tricky things and shoot their own foot.
For systemd, if CONFIG_EXPERT is disable, CONFIG_FHANDLE will be enabled
automatically. So there is no need to enable CONFIG_EXPERT and then set
CONFIG_FHANDLE manually.
libelf.so links to libbz2.so.1.0, liblzma.so.5, and libz.so.1. libz is
really used, but to me liblzma and libbz2 are "unneeded dependencies":
the building system apparently thinks they are needed by zstd but
actually not. I don't want to "fix the upstream" so just list them here
anyway.
- Update to systemd-253
- Update to bc-6.3.1
- Update to linux-6.2.2
- Update to procps-ng-4.0.3
- Update to iproute2-6.2.0
- Update to meson-1.0.1
- Update to make-4.4.1
- Update to elfutils-0.189
- Remove an extra whitespace breaking shebang (though our instruction
does not use the shebang).
- Adjust the regex to allow several letters after the version number,
and match grep version to the text.
- Raise Coreutils to 7.0 (for the host requirement script itself). It
was released in 2008 so I don't think it's a problem.
- Add a colon after the text "Compiler check" to match "Aliases:".
- Use grep -o instead of sed to make kernel version check simpler.
The upstream has splitted [DHCP] into [DHCPv4] and [DHCPv6]. While we
are only enabling DHCPv4 in the example setting (in most scenario DHCPv6
is not strictly needed as SLAAC is sufficient), just use [DHCPv4]
instead of [DHCP].
This update changes the default number of cores used to build
packages to 4. A section is also added to host requirements
to recommend a minumum number of cores and memory size.
