We cannot rely on execute bits to be set on files in the repository.
The build script should use the explicit interpreter when invoking any
script from the repository.

Here is an instance of what Masahiro-san pointed out being wrong.

Ujjwal, will you send a v3?

Following is the quoted text from the reply mail from Masahiro

-GAS_STATUS     = $(shell $(srctree)/arch/ia64/scripts/check-gas "$(CC)" "$(OBJDUMP)")
-KBUILD_CPPFLAGS += $(shell $(srctree)/arch/ia64/scripts/toolchain-flags "$(CC)" "$(OBJDUMP)" "$(READELF)")

These changes look wrong to me.

$($(CONFIG_SHELL)    ->  $(shell $(CONFIG_SHELL)

From the above text, I understand as follows:

That my proposed change:
$(shell $(src...)    ->  $($(CONFIG_SHELL) $(src...)

is WRONG

and in the next line he suggested the required correction.
That being:
$($(CONFIG_SHELL)    ->  $(shell $(CONFIG_SHELL)

Which is in v2 of the patch series.

Lukas, please correct me if I'm wrong so that I can work on v3
if required.

Sorry, my memory tricked me; I got it confused. Your patch looks good.
 

Also, Nathan reviewed both the patches in v1 of this series. So,
should I be the one who adds his tag in next iterations?

Masahiro-san will probably just add them when he picks the patches.

Lukas
