# Description: kernel.eclass rewrite for a clean base regarding the 2.6
#              series of kernel with back-compatibility for 2.4
#
# Original author: John Mylchreest <johnm@gentoo.org>
# Maintainer: kernel-misc@gentoo.org
#
# Please direct your bugs to the current eclass maintainer :)

# added functionality:
# unipatch		- a flexible, singular method to extract, add and remove patches.

# A Couple of env vars are available to effect usage of this eclass
# These are as follows:
#
# K_USEPV				- When setting the EXTRAVERSION variable, it should
#						  add PV to the end.
#						  this is useful for thigns like wolk. IE:
#						  EXTRAVERSION would be something like : -wolk-4.19-r1
# K_NOSETEXTRAVERSION	- if this is set then EXTRAVERSION will not be
#						  automatically set within the kernel Makefile
# K_NOUSENAME			- if this is set then EXTRAVERSION will not include the
#						  first part of ${PN} in EXTRAVERSION
# K_NOUSEPR				- if this is set then EXTRAVERSION will not include the
#						  anything based on ${PR}.
# K_PREPATCHED			- if the patchset is prepatched (ie: mm-sources,
#						  ck-sources, ac-sources) it will use PR (ie: -r5) as
#						  the patchset version for
#						  and not use it as a true package revision
# K_EXTRAEINFO			- this is a new-line seperated list of einfo displays in
#						  postinst and can be used to carry additional postinst
#						  messages
# K_EXTRAELOG			- same as K_EXTRAEINFO except using elog instead of einfo
# K_EXTRAEWARN			- same as K_EXTRAEINFO except using ewarn instead of einfo
# K_SYMLINK				- if this is set, then forcably create symlink anyway
#
# K_BASE_VER			- for git-sources, declare the base version this patch is 
#						  based off of.
# K_DEFCONFIG			- Allow specifying a different defconfig target.
#						  If length zero, defaults to "defconfig".
# K_WANT_GENPATCHES		- Apply genpatches to kernel source. Provide any
# 						  combination of "base", "extras" or "experimental".
# K_EXP_GENPATCHES_PULL	- If set, we pull "experimental" regardless of the USE FLAG
#						  but expect the ebuild maintainer to use K_EXP_GENPATCHES_LIST.
# K_EXP_GENPATCHES_NOUSE	- If set, no USE flag will be provided for "experimental";
# 						  as a result the user cannot choose to apply those patches.
# K_EXP_GENPATCHES_LIST	- A list of patches to pick from "experimental" to apply when
# 						  the USE flag is unset and K_EXP_GENPATCHES_PULL is set.
# K_GENPATCHES_VER		- The version of the genpatches tarball(s) to apply.
#						  A value of "5" would apply genpatches-2.6.12-5 to
#						  my-sources-2.6.12.ebuild
# K_SECURITY_UNSUPPORTED- If set, this kernel is unsupported by Gentoo Security
# K_DEBLOB_AVAILABLE	- A value of "0" will disable all of the optional deblob
#						  code. If empty, will be set to "1" if deblobbing is
#						  possible. Test ONLY for "1".
# K_DEBLOB_TAG     		- This will be the version of deblob script. It's a upstream SVN tag
#						  such asw -gnu or -gnu1. 
# K_PREDEBLOBBED		- This kernel was already deblobbed elsewhere.
#						  If false, either optional deblobbing will be available
#						  or the license will note the inclusion of freedist
#						  code.
# K_LONGTERM			- If set, the eclass will search for the kernel source
#						  in the long term directories on the upstream servers
#						  as the location has been changed by upstream
# K_KDBUS_AVAILABLE		- If set, the ebuild contains the option of installing the
#						  kdbus patch.  This patch is not installed without the 'kdbus'
#						  and 'experimental' use flags.
# H_SUPPORTEDARCH		- this should be a space separated list of ARCH's which
#						  can be supported by the headers ebuild

# UNIPATCH_LIST			- space delimetered list of patches to be applied to the
#						  kernel
# UNIPATCH_EXCLUDE		- an addition var to support exlusion based completely
#						  on "<passedstring>*" and not "<passedno#>_*"
#						- this should _NOT_ be used from the ebuild as this is
#						  reserved for end users passing excludes from the cli
# UNIPATCH_DOCS			- space delimemeted list of docs to be installed to
#						  the doc dir
# UNIPATCH_STRICTORDER	- if this is set places patches into directories of
#						  order, so they are applied in the order passed

# Changing any other variable in this eclass is not supported; you can request
# for additional variables to be added by contacting the current maintainer.
# If you do change them, there is a chance that we will not fix resulting bugs;
# that of course does not mean we're not willing to help.
