The are several advantages to use the yocto recipe as base: - The checkout of the git repo is done differently: it makes the do_fetch task faster than it would be with the default behavior which is to clone the entire repository. - It is possible to share part of the build process by defining the KMACHINE variable: All machines with the same KMACHINE value will share (at least part of) the build environment, speeding up compile time. - It is possible to conditionally add configs through the KERNEL_FEATURES variable, without needing to rebuild from scratch when changing the features. The new recipe also directly takes advantage of the KERNEL_FEATURES to add support for init ram disks. A another change happening with this commit is the kernel modules to autoload being defined in a single file and (as the defconfig) depend on the SOC_FAMILY variable (sitara or armada). id:413752 |
