Summary: Review Request: sparse
Product: Fedora Extras
Version: devel
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: normal
Component: Package Review
AssignedTo: bugzilla-sink at leemhuis.info
ReportedBy: bkyoung at users.sourceforge.net
QAContact: fedora-extras-list at redhat.com
Spec Name or Url: Attached as sparse.spec
SRPM Name or Url: Must build separately
Description: A C semantic parser.
While flailing and failing to resolve a kernel issue, I followed this "sparse" tangent and now have a sparse RPM for Fedora.
The Linux kernel build system directly supports sparse, and including it in Fedora Extras would be a convenience to anyone wishing to attempt to use it.
Because of compat-i386.c, the spec file may require:
ExclusiveArch:i386
The license is OSL V1.1, but exemptions included in the license imply executables linking to the library itself (sparse) are not considered "Original Work".
A kernel-2.6.spec.patch (for kernel-smp-2.6.15-1.2041) is attached to provide a convenient way to use sparse when rebuilding the kernel.
Attached are:
sparse.spec
sparse-0.1-Makefile.patch
kernel-2.6.spec.patch
To git (from git-core) tarball:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git
cd sparse
git-tar-tree HEAD sparse-0.1 | gzip > ../sparse-0.1.tar.gz
rpmlint output:
W: sparse invalid-license OSL
W: sparse-debuginfo invalid-license OSL
W: sparse-debuginfo objdump-failed
W: sparse-devel invalid-license OSL
