MORIN Date: Mon, 3 Jun 2013 22:15:46 +0200 Subject: [Buildroot] [pull request] Pull request for branch yem-misc-updates Message-ID: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net From: "Yann E. MORIN" Hello All! Here are a few version bumps related to the Raspberry Pi: - rpi_defconfig: bump kernel (many fixes, improvements) - linux-firmware: bump (new firmware files for WiFi dongles) - rpi-firmware: bump (new codecs, mostly) - rpi-firmware: select firmware(s) to install Also, promote genext2fs as a host-package, too, like we have for other filesystem generators. Notes only slightly related to this series: For the Linux kernel for the RPi, there are a few branches available in the raspbberypi repository: - rpi-3.6.y: that branch seems stable, and I just bump to the latest cset in that branch - rpi-3.8.y: I've expereienced many MMC errors using that branch - rpi-3.9.y: ditto, many MMC errors However, with a RAM-based rootfs (eg. initramfs) or a network rootfs (eg. NFS), it might be possible to reliably use those two last branches, as long as the SDcard is not used. Booting one of those two branches with the rpi-firmware currently packaged in Buildroot fails, so it seems we first need to update rpi-firmware before switching to rpi-3.{8,9}.y. I'll report back on any improvement in this area. Regards, Yann E.
