As you can see they are identical.
So no changes there then.

This bodes well for us. no kernel tweaks required for 3.4 compliance. Happy days.
Looking at the Src bz2's they appear identical.
Any bets on updated headers???

I just had to be the first one to use a cross-site, thoughtless, request title.
At this site:
http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/
Is described the (original) bsdiff / bspatch program, with sources:
http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/bsdiff-4.3.tar.gz
If you would please wire that into your build system?
If you want to practice building it (to find problems in the build), we could use an Intel, 32bit version also (in BR, jsut call both the 'target' and the 'host' builders).
Once some testing confirms that the above is the same bsdiff / bspatch being used by lab126 . . .

For the vendor (binary) tarballs released for Media Players, a file changes audit report generator already exists.
HowTo install binfmt_misc support for it (not required, and in supplement to what you have already written up here):
http://minimodding.com/LuaBinFmt
HowTo on building and installing LuaFileAudit:
http://minimodding.com/LuaFileAudit
HowTo use LFA and example reports generated:
http://minimodding.com/FW121NTSCcomp
The above example is on comparison of binary trees, but should work just the same on source trees.

For the "Describe this for Me" to-do list ::
- Write-up for everyone how to use the update tool to unpack a Kindle update ;
- Apply that update to a file image - using a "non-Kindle" machine ;
- Generate a File Audit report of the changes to the image ;
- Then on using the update tool to re-pack the updated "forensic" image.
It should all be a "piece of cake" for the crew at either of our cross-scripted web-sites:
- Lua will build and run on anything that supports a standard "C" compiler ;
- The LFA application is a Lua script ;
- We already have the un-pack/re-pack tool in several versions, by several people.
