2017-09-27kernel-imximage.bbclass: Linux kernel with DCD headersOtavio Salvador
This new image type adds support to generate a Linux kernel with DCD headers. Essentially it adds support to directly boot a Linux kernel without a bootloader. As the Linux kernel will be boot directly, it required that the Device Tree is appended to the kernel image, which had support included in OE-Core. To have the Linux kernel generated with the DCD headers, following steps must be followed: - Linux kernel recipe must inherit kernel-imximage class; - Device Tree appended Linux kernel must be used (KERNEL_DEVICETREE_BUNDLE = "1"); - DCD header configuration must be provided (dcd.cfg or dcd-<devicetree>.cfg); Signed-off-by: Otavio Salvador <otavio@ossystems.com.br>
