[PATCH v2 00/10] firmware_loader: built-in API and make x86 use it

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changes in this v2:

 o drops two patches which Greg has already merged
 o drop one patch which added the new kconfig symbol FW_LOADER_BUILTIN
   which Greg didn't like, and so instead we rely only on the FW_LOADER
   symbol. If anyone cringes during review because of this, just keep in mind,
   *this* is *why* I added the symbol in the first patch series.

I've ran the firmware selftests test and found no issues. I have also
let 0 day grind on this and it found no issues. This is all based on
linux-next next-20211020, I have a branch 20211020-firmware-builtin
which has these changes in case anyone wants this in a git tree [0].
