When running 'make install' without DESTDIR set the module install rules would mistakenly destroy the 'modules.*' files for ALL of your installed kernels. This could lead to a non-functional system for the alternate kernels because 'depmod -a' will only be run for the kernel which was compiled against. This issue would not impact anyone using the 'make <deb|rpm|pkg>' build targets to build and install packages. The fix for this issue is to only remove extraneous build products when DESTDIR is set. This almost exclusively indicates we are building packages and installed the build products in to a temporary staging location. Additionally, limit the removal the unneeded build products to the target kernel version. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Closes #328
Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
