From f55f2328bb28a8517620518c5d124f5194673309 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrzej Pietrasiewicz Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2018 14:03:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: make sorting initramfs contents independent of locale Some LANG values (e.g. pl_PL.UTF-8) cause the sort command to output files before their parent directories, which makes them inaccessible for the kernel. In other words, when the kernel populates the rootfs, it is unable to create files whose parent directories have not been yet created. This patch makes sorting use the default (LANG=C) locale, which results in correctly laid out initramfs images (parent directories before files).
