scripts/package: snap-pkg target Following in footsteps of other targets like 'deb-pkg, 'rpm-pkg' and 'tar-pkg', this patch adds a 'snap-pkg' target for the creation of a Linux kernel snap package using the kbuild infrastructure. A snap, in its general form, is a self contained, sandboxed, universal package and it is intended to work across multiple distributions and/or devices. A snap package is distributed as a single compressed squashfs filesystem. A kernel snap is a snap package carrying the Linux kernel, kernel modules, accessory files (DTBs, System.map, etc) and a manifesto file. The purpose of a kernel snap is to carry the Linux kernel during the creation of a system image, eg. Ubuntu Core, and its subsequent upgrades.

kbuild: remove the last use of old cmd_src_tar rule in packaging The rpm-pkg and deb-pkg targets have transitioned to using 'git archive' for tarball creation. Although the old cmd_src_tar is still used by snap-pkg, there is no need to pack and unpack a tarball solely for passing the source to snapcraft. Instead, you can use 'source-type: local' to tell the source location to snapcraft. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> 2023-11-23 16:18:24 +09:00
