Normally I'd take it, being x86, but given that there are a good number of generic items in the list, I wanted to see if you would have a look. 27851 2 bruce.ashfield 2012-11-30 13:42:59 +0000 Yep. Let me take this first. It's part of the overall work I'm doing for 1.4 anyway. 31029 3 bruce.ashfield 2013-03-22 12:56:37 +0000 Have you sync'd with Amy on this ? She was actively working on this a few days ago. I just want to be sure that two people aren't doing the same thing. If there are spare cycles, the h/w references getting bumped to 3.8 needs to be considered. 31067 4 liezhi.yang 2013-03-25 02:06:37 +0000 (In reply to comment #3) > Have you sync'd with Amy on this ?

I am not sure about the two params. 7, The reason why kernel 3.8 has less non-hardware warning then 3.4: `drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig' and `drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig' are newly added in hardware.kcf. http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/RT2860.html http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/RT2800PCI.html http://lxr.linux.no/linux/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig http://lxr.linux.no/linux/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/Kconfig 31216 7 hongxu.jia 2013-03-27 09:36:15 +0000 *solution 1, When Kernel version is 3.4.34(default) diff --git a/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg b/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg index e6cbc950..7226c08 100644 --- a/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg +++ b/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg @@ -1,11 +1,4 @@ -CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT=y -CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV=y - -CONFIG_ATH9K_HW=y -CONFIG_ATH9K_COMMON=y CONFIG_ATH9K=y -CONFIG_STAGING=y -CONFIG_RT2860=y - -CONFIG_CRC_CCITT=y +CONFIG_RT2X00=y +CONFIG_RT2800PCI=y diff --git a/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/hardware.kcf b/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/hardware.kcf new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8700349 --- /dev/null +++ b/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/hardware.kcf @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig +drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig 2, When Kernel version is 3.8.1 diff --git a/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg b/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg index e6cbc950..7226c08 100644 --- a/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg +++ b/meta/cfg/kernel-cache/bsp/atom-pc/atom-pc-wifi.cfg @@ -1,11 +1,4 @@ -CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT=y -CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV=y - -CONFIG_ATH9K_HW=y -CONFIG_ATH9K_COMMON=y CONFIG_ATH9K=y -CONFIG_STAGING=y -CONFIG_RT2860=y - -CONFIG_CRC_CCITT=y +CONFIG_RT2X00=y +CONFIG_RT2800PCI=y diff --git a/meta-yocto-bsp/conf/machine/atom-pc.conf b/meta-yocto-bsp/conf/machine/atom-pc.conf index e97b173..1c9a94f 100644 --- a/meta-yocto-bsp/conf/machine/atom-pc.conf +++ b/meta-yocto-bsp/conf/machine/atom-pc.conf @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ MACHINE_FEATURES = "screen keyboard pci usbhost ext2 ext3 x86 wifi acpi alsa" KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "bzImage" PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel ?= "linux-yocto" -PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto ?= "3.4%" +PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto ?= "3.8%" PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/xserver ?= "xserver-xorg" XSERVER ?= "xserver-xorg \ xserver-xorg-extension-glx \ 31217 8 hongxu.jia 2013-03-27 09:38:21 +0000 Hi Bruce, Would you please give some suggestions about the following questions? Q1, Which kernel version will be choosed, 3.4(current for atom-pc) or 3.8? Q2, Is it correct to remove CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV and CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT in atom-pc-wifi.cfg? Thansk, Hongxu 31247 9 dvhart 2013-03-27 16:08:47 +0000 If not already, atom-pc will be moved to 3.8. 31248 10 bruce.ashfield 2013-03-27 16:12:57 +0000 right. We are refreshing the h/w references to 3.8, now that the latest -stable and -rt changes are in place. Atom-pc is one of the easiest to move, so as part of this cleanup. Focuson 3.8 and with confirmed boot tests, we'll bump it to 3.8. 31249 11 bruce.ashfield 2013-03-27 16:25:37 +0000 re: Q2, Is it correct to remove CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV and CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT in atom-pc-wifi.cfg? It is acceptable. If the options are no longer available in 3.8, then we should pull them out of the fragments. We want the warnings to tell us this, so we'll follow the advice :) 31863 12 hongxu.jia 2013-04-11 00:37:14 +0000 Merged into master: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=9c22995dd4af48aa22d8abbe01113d9f34a51dad Please verify.
