Parse kernel.org changelogs

February 4, 2011 by Igor Drobot Leave a Comment

Parsing kernel orgs changelogs can be a pain.

Here’s a handy one-liner to make it easier to read:

1
wget --quiet -O - http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.37 | grep -A 4 ^commit | grep -B 1 "^--" | grep -v "^--"

wget --quiet -O - http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.37 | grep -A 4 ^commit | grep -B 1 "^--" | grep -v "^--"

You should become human readable output like this one:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
    perf: Remove unused variable
    x86, bios: By default, reserve the low 64K for all BIOSes
    mlx4_en: Fix build warning in mlx4_en_create_rx_ring.
    mlx4_en: updated driver version
    mlx4_en: Moving to work with GRO
    mlx4_en: UDP RSS support
    mlx4_en: reconfiguring mac address.
