2023-12-13rpi-cmdline, rpi-u-boot-src: Support USB bootHarunobu Kurokawa
The Raspberry Pi 4 board can boot the image from USB memory. But current meta-raspberrypi supports only SD boot. This commit allows switching SD boot to other device. For example, if you want to use USB boot, please define the following parameters in your conf/local.conf file. CMDLINE_ROOT_PARTITION = "/dev/sda2" BOOT_MEDIA = "usb" v4: Update extra-build-config.md to explain more detail for new variable. v3: Changed variable name to "BOOT_MEDIA" (was "BOOT_DEVTIPE"). v2: Set existing microSD parameter as default. User can overwrite some parameters. Signed-off-by: Harunobu Kurokawa <harunobu.kurokawa.dn@renesas.com>

2022-07-31linux-firmware-rpidistro: Guard the recipe under a license flagAndrei Gherzan
We do this as a result of an upstream issue[1]. Some of the firmware blobs are provided under the 'Synapse' license including a clause that can (at least theoretically) be used as a 'killswitch'. To make sure users are aware of this, we guard this behind a license flag. Users of this recipe will need to add to their configuration: LICENSE_FLAGS_ACCEPTED = "synaptics-killswitch" [1] https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/issues/29 Signed-off-by: Andrei Gherzan <andrei.gherzan@huawei.com>

2018-07-16sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass: drop KERNEL_INITRAMFS variableMartin Jansa
* use INITRAMFS_SYMLINK_NAME from new kernel-artifact-names.bbclass instead of KERNEL_INITRAMFS * the documentation says that KERNEL_INITRAMFS should be used to define extension of initramfs, but in linux-raspberrypi.inc it's defined only to 1 or empty based on INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE variable and I don't see any code in meta-raspberry or oe-core which would use KERNEL_INITRAMFS to actualy name the initramfs artifact to create: ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin used in classes/sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass * also fix the assumption that there is -${MACHINE} suffix in: ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin because that's defined as KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME and some DISTROs might use different value * this depends on oe-core changes which were merged today: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=7d0ef0eaa1bfe97015a774c26f5791622e7e8b12 * this is the last piece of previous pull-request: https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/pull/159 Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa <Martin.Jansa@gmail.com>
