2016-03-01pitft: Add basic support for PiTFTPetter Mabäcker
Add basic support for PiTFT display by using device-trees. In order get it working below configurations must be active in local.conf: MACHINE_FEATURES += "pitft" - This will enable SPI bus and i2c device-trees, it will also setup framebuffer for console and x server on PiTFT.

2016-03-01rpi-config: I2C supportPetter Mabäcker
With newer kernels (>=3.18) that supports device-trees I2C should be enabled with device-trees. This is now support by adding: ENABLE_I2C = "1" in local.conf This will enable the dtparams: i2c1 i2c_arm Signed-off-by: Petter Mabäcker <petter@technux.se> Signed-off-by: Andrei Gherzan <andrei@gherzan.ro>

2015-08-10linux-raspberrypi.inc: Make kgdboc kernel param optionalMauro Carvalho Chehab
The kernel debugger over console (kgdboc) parameter is being added unconditionally to the kernel command line but this means that the kernel will stop and wait for gdb to attach in case of a exception or when sending a sysrq-g key. This behaviour may not be what most users wants that are not remotely debugging the kernel over serial console so make it optional by adding a ENABLE_KGDB config option.

2014-08-14rpi-config,README: Add option to enable offline image compositingAlex J Lennon
Set this variable to enable support for dispmanx offline compositing DISMANX_OFFLINE = "1" This will enable the firmware to fall back to off-line compositing of Dispmanx elements. Normally the compositing is done on-line, during scanout, but cannot handle too many elements. With off-line enabled, an off-screen buffer is allocated for compositing. When scene complexity (number and sizes of elements) is high, compositing will happen off-line into the buffer. Heavily recommended for Wayland/Weston.
