Thanks. I was checking there as I went along, which is why I added
patches 158-160. (It looks like you turned on some new config options
for those architectures recently, as the bugs those fix don't seem to
be triggered by earlier patches.)


Hi Ben,

I added several 'allnoconfig' and 'allmodconfig' builds. At the same time,
I changed the approach on how known failures are handled; those are now added
to an exception list which won't be built in the first place.

The current exception list for builds in 3.2 is:

> alpha:allnoconfig
> arm:allnoconfig
> arm:allmodconfig
> avr32:allnoconfig
m68k:allnoconfig
> microblaze:allnoconfig
> mips:allmodconfig
openrisc:allnoconfig
> parisc:allnoconfig
> sparc32:allmodconfig
xtensa:defconfig
> xtensa:allmodconfig
> xtensa:allnoconfig

I would be interested to get the arm and mips allmodconfig builds
working if it's not too hard.

I had a look, but I think it is just too hard. Too many changes between 3.2
and 3.10 (which is the first building kernel for arm).
