The recommended way to - use these is to run "make firmware_install" and to copy the - resulting binary files created in usr/lib/firmware directory - of the kernel tree to the /lib/firmware on your system so - that they can be loaded by userspace helpers on request. - - Enabling this option will build each required firmware blob - into the kernel directly, where request_firmware() will find - them without having to call out to userspace. This may be - useful if your root file system requires a device which uses - such firmware, and do not wish to use an initrd. - - This single option controls the inclusion of firmware for - every driver which usees request_firmare() and ships its - firmware in the kernel source tree, to avoid a proliferation - of 'Include firmware for xxx device' options. - - Say 'N' and let firmware be loaded from userspace. - -config EXTRA_FIRMWARE - string "External firmware blobs to build into the kernel binary" - depends on FW_LOADER - help - This option allows firmware to be built into the kernel, for the - cases where the user either cannot or doesn't want to provide it from - userspace at runtime (for example, when the firmware in question is - required for accessing the boot device, and the user doesn't want to - use an initrd). - This option is a string, and takes the (space-separated) names of the - firmware files -- the same names which appear in MODULE_FIRMWARE() - and request_firmware() in the source. These files should exist under - the directory specified by the EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR option, which is - by default the firmware/ subdirectory of the kernel source tree. - - So, for example, you might set CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="usb8388.bin", - copy the usb8388.bin file into the firmware/ directory, and build the - kernel. Then any request_firmware("usb8388.bin") will be - satisfied internally without needing to call out to userspace. - - WARNING: If you include additional firmware files into your binary - kernel image which are not available under the terms of the GPL, - then it may be a violation of the GPL to distribute the resulting - image -- since it combines both GPL and non-GPL work. You should - consult a lawyer of your own before distributing such an image. - -config EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR - string "Firmware blobs root directory" - depends on EXTRA_FIRMWARE != "" - default "firmware" - help - This option controls the directory in which the kernel build system - looks for the firmware files listed in the EXTRA_FIRMWARE option. - The default is the firmware/ directory in the kernel source tree, - but by changing this option you can point it elsewhere, such as - the /lib/firmware/ directory or another separate directory - containing firmware files. - EOF open_kconfig('../linux', '../linux/drivers/media/Kconfig'); |
