[ Upstream commit 28bbbb9875a35975904e46f9b06fa689d051b290 ] When cross compiling a MIPS kernel on a BSD based HOSTCC leads to errors like SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd - due to: .config egrep: empty (sub)expression UPD include/config/kernel.release HOSTCC scripts/dtc/dtc.o - due to target missing It turns out that egrep uses this egrep pattern: (|MINOR_|PATCHLEVEL_) This is not valid syntax or gives undefined results according to POSIX 9.5.3 ERE Grammar https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap09.html It seems to be silently accepted by the Linux egrep implementation while a BSD host complains. Such patterns can be replaced by a transformation like "(|p1|p2)" -> "(p1|p2)?" Fixes: 48c35b2d245f ("[MIPS] There is no __GNUC_MAJOR__") Signed-off-by: H.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
