  • 5e8e9245f   firmware: FIRMWARE_NAME_MAX removal ... Browse Code »

    As we're allocating the firmware name dynamically, we no longer need this
    definition.
    This patch must be applied only after the 5 previous patches from this pacth
    set have been applied.

  • 5658c7694   firmware: allow firmware files to be built into kernel image ... Browse Code »

    Some drivers have their own hacks to bypass the kernel's firmware loader
    and build their firmware into the kernel; this renders those unnecessary.

    Other drivers don't use the firmware loader at all, because they always
    want the firmware to be available. This allows them to start using the
    firmware loader.

    A third set of drivers already use the firmware loader, but can't be
    used without help from userspace, which sometimes requires an initrd.
    This allows them to work in a static kernel.

  • b7a39bd0a   firmware: make fw->data const ... Browse Code »

    In preparation for supporting firmware files linked into the static
    kernel, make fw->data const to ensure that users aren't modifying it (so
    that we can pass a pointer to the original in-kernel copy, rather than
    having to copy it).

    There's a slight fault in the stub logic. It fails for FW_LOADER=m and
    the user =y.

    This should fix it.

    This patch fixes the following 2.6.26-rc regression:

  • fbab976d7   firmware: provide stubs for the FW_LOADER=n case ... Browse Code »

    libsas has a case where it uses the firmware loader to provide services,
    but doesn't want to select it all the time. This currently causes a
    compile failure in libsas if FW_LOADER=n. Fix this by providing error
    stubs for the firmware loader API in the FW_LOADER=n case.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
