-Subject: [PATCH] arm: compressed: add appended DTB section
-
-This adds a appended_dtb section to the ARM decompressor
-linker script.
-
-This allows using the existing ARM zImage appended DTB support for
-appending a DTB to the raw ELF kernel.
-
-Its size is set to 1MB max to match the zImage appended DTB size limit.
-
-To use it to pass the DTB to the kernel, objcopy is used:
-
-objcopy --set-section-flags=.appended_dtb=alloc,contents \
- --update-section=.appended_dtb=<target>.dtb vmlinux
-
-This is based off the following patch:
-https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/c063e27e02a9dcac0e7f5877fb154e58fa3e1a69
