kbuild-progress
The progress bar for Linux kernel building.
install
npm install -g kbuild-progress
usage
kbuild-progress [kernel make arguments...]
- Move to your Linux kernel source tree.
- Setup .config file and make kernel.
- Run kbuild-progress, then this tool will begin to monitor kernel building progress. I recommend doing this step in another terminal session(eg. another terminal tab, tmux window or pane).
