Subject: [PATCHv3 27/28] firmware: Add CONFIG_BUILTIN_FIRMWARE option
Date: Sun, 25 May 2008 18:00:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1211734802.31212.129.camel@shinybook.infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E1K0DOP-0007EW-F0@shinybook.infradead.org>
Feedback/patches from Johannes Berg -- sort $(firmware_dirs) to prevent
make from complaining about duplicates, and don't unconditionally depend
on include/config/64bit.h. Also fix O= compilation again by including
$(srctree) in the filename passed to .incbin in the .S files.
I also fixed up the dependencies for the object files built from
binaries -- the .S file doesn't need to depend on the binary, but the .o
does.
Still don't have the behaviour we want from clean/mrproper, but I think
we need Sam's help with that.

firmware: Add CONFIG_BUILTIN_FIRMWARE option
This allows arbitrary firmware files to be included in the static kernel
where the firmware loader can find them without requiring userspace to
be alive.
