Adding a skeleton/refrence recipe for using a subset of the yocto
kernel tools against kernel git repositories.
Sample/reference configuration fragments, features and a patch are
provided and documented in the recipe.
From the recipe itself:
Provides an example/minimal kernel recipe that uses the linux-yocto
and oe-core kernel classes to apply a subset of yocto kernel
management to git managed kernel repositories.
Notes:
kconfig(s): the kernel must be configured with a defconfig, or via
configuration fragment(s). Either of these can be added
via bbappend.
patches: patches can be merged into to the source git tree itself, added
using standard bbappend syntax or controlled via .scc feature
descriptions (also via bbappends)
example configuration addition:
SRC_URI += "file://smp.cfg"
example patch addition (for kernel v3.4 only):
SRC_URI += "file://0001-linux-version-tweak.patch
example feature addition (for kernel v3.4 only):
SRC_URI += "file://feature.scc"
Warning:
Building the sample kernel tree (kernel.org) without providing any
configuration will result in build or boot errors. This is not a bug
it is a required element for creating a valid kernel.
