<title>Building Kernels - <filename>kernel.bbclass</filename></title>
<para>
This class handles building Linux kernels.
The class contains code to build all kernel trees.
All needed headers are staged into the
<filename><link linkend='var-STAGING_KERNEL_DIR'>STAGING_KERNEL_DIR</link></filename>
directory to allow out-of-tree module builds using <filename>module.bbclass</filename>.
</para>
<para>
This means that each built kernel module is packaged separately and inter-module
dependencies are created by parsing the <filename>modinfo</filename> output.
If all modules are required, then installing the <filename>kernel-modules</filename>
package installs all packages with modules and various other kernel packages
such as <filename>kernel-vmlinux</filename>.
</para>
<para>
Various other classes are used by the kernel and module classes internally including
<filename>kernel-arch.bbclass</filename>, <filename>module_strip.bbclass</filename>,
<filename>module-base.bbclass</filename>, and <filename>linux-kernel-base.bbclass</filename>.
