  15. <title>Installation of the kernel headers</title>
  16. <para>As some packages need to refer to the kernel header files, we're going
  17. to unpack the kernel archive now, set it up, and copy the required files to a
  18. place where <command>gcc</command> can later find them.</para>
  19. <para>Prepare for the header installation with:</para>
  20. <screen><userinput>make mrproper</userinput></screen>
  21. <para>This ensures that the kernel tree is absolutely clean. The kernel team
  22. recommends that this command be issued prior to <emphasis>each</emphasis>
  23. kernel compilation. You shouldn't rely on the source tree being clean after
  24. un-tarring.</para>
  25. <para>Create the <filename>include/linux/version.h</filename> file:</para>
  26. <screen><userinput>make include/linux/version.h</userinput></screen>
  27. <para>Create the platform-specific <filename>include/asm</filename>
  28. symlink:</para>
  29. <screen><userinput>make include/asm</userinput></screen>
  30. <para>Install the platform-specific header files:</para>
  31. <screen><userinput>mkdir /tools/glibc-kernheaders
  32. cp -HR include/asm /tools/glibc-kernheaders
  33. cp -R include/asm-generic /tools/glibc-kernheaders</userinput></screen>
  34. <para>Finally, install the cross-platform kernel header files:</para>
  35. <screen><userinput>cp -R include/linux /tools/glibc-kernheaders</userinput></screen>
