WHENCE: use https://linuxtv.org for LinuxTV URLs

2015-12-04T12:35:11+00:00

While https was always supported on linuxtv.org, only in
Dec 3 2015 the website is using valid certificates.

As we're planning to drop pure http support on some
future, change the http://linuxtv.org references at firmware/WHENCE
file to point to https://linuxtv.org instead.

firmware: Update information in linux.git about adding firmware

2015-05-07T15:48:42+00:00

Kyle McMartin joined the linux-firmware maintainers, and we now
have an alias  which reaches all of us.
Include that instead of the individual addresses.

Add some further recommendations that were already included in the
README in linux-firmware.git added by Xose Vazquez Perez
.

firmware/ihex2fw.c: restore missing default in switch statement

2015-04-17T13:03:56+00:00

Commit 2473238eac95 ("ihex: add support for CS:IP/EIP records") removes
the "default:" statement in the switch block, making the "return
usage();" line dead code and ihex2fw silently ignoring unknown options.
Restore this statement.

This bug was found by building with HOSTCC=clang and adding
-Wunreachable-code-return to HOSTCFLAGS.

kbuild: remove obj-n and lib-n handling

2014-10-02T11:55:02+00:00

Kconfig never defines CONFIG_* as 'n'.
Now obj-n is only used in firmware/Makefile and it can be
replaced with obj-.  No makefile uses lib-n.

Let's rip off obj-n and lib-n.

firmware: Create directories for external firmware

2014-07-09T13:16:35+00:00

Commit 5180d5f4 ("firmware: Simplify directory creation") broke
including firmware specified in CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE:

  MK_FW   firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S
/bin/sh: firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S: No such file or directory
...
firmware/Makefile:185: recipe for target
'firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin.gen.S' failed

It works with O= builds, because the directory is created by
Makefile.build. Create the directory in firmware/Makefile in non-O
builds.

Merge branch 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild

2014-06-13T04:23:38+00:00

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek:
 "Kbuild changes for v3.16-rc1:

   - cross-compilation fix so that cc-option is testing the right
     compiler
   - Fix for make defconfig all
   - Using relative paths to the object and source directory where
     possible, plus fixes for the fallout of the change
   - several cleanups in the Makefiles and scripts

  The powerpc fix is from today, because it was only discovered
  recently.  The rest has been in linux-next for some time"

* 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
  powerpc: Avoid circular dependency with zImage.%
  kbuild: create include/config directory in scripts/kconfig/Makefile
  kbuild: do not create include/linux directory
  Makefile: Fix unrecognized cross-compiler command line options
  kbuild: do not add "selinux" to subdir- twice
  um: Fix for relative objtree when generating x86 headers
  kbuild: Use relative path when building in a subdir of the source tree
  kbuild: Use relative path when building in the source tree
  kbuild: Use relative path for $(objtree)
  firmware: Use $(quote) in the Makefile

firmware: Simplify directory creation

2014-05-14T20:43:04+00:00

When building the firmware blobs, use a simple loop to create
directories in $(objtree), like in Makefile.build. This simplifies the
rules and also makes it possible to set $(objtree) to '.' later. Before
this change, a dependency on $(objtree)/ would be satisfied by
 in $(srctree).

When installing the firmware blobs, call mkdir like in Makefile.modinst.

Documentation/serial: Delete obsolete driver documentation

2014-04-16T21:20:34+00:00

These serial drivers were removed in kernel v3.1, so we can drop their
documentation files and references to their magic numbers and
parameters.

There are still references to these old drivers in
Documentation/devices.txt but I'm afraid they can't be removed.

USB: emi62: Provide the correct bitstream firmware

2013-12-11T06:38:45+00:00

Commit b8e24bfabb03 ('emi62: use request_firmware()') made
emi62/bitstream.HEX a copy of emi26/bitstream.HEX.  Re-do the
conversion from drivers/usb/misc/emi62_fw_{m,s}.h (these headers
contained the same bitstream but different firmware).

This produces an identical blob to the known working version in
http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/emagic/emi-20131209.tgz
