* kernel: backport 2 mtd partitioning fixesRafał Miłecki2018-12-031-3/+3
| | | | | | This improves handling of subpartitions. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: drop unused arch_split_mtd_part()Rafał Miłecki2018-11-241-20/+3
| | | | | | | No single target/arch uses it and most likely there is no need to make such a potential code target/arch specific. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: don't auto-split "firmware" if it has "compatible" DT propertyRafał Miłecki2018-11-241-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | If "compatible" is being used that should trigger a proper parser directly. It's more reliable thanks to not trying parsers one by one. In such case partition shouldn't be split automatically to avoid parsing it twice. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: backport mtd support for subpartitions in DTRafał Miłecki2018-07-271-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a new & warm feature that allows nesting partiitons in DT and mixing their types (e.g. static vs. dynamic). It's very useful for boards that have most partitions static but some of them require extra parsing (e.g. a "firmware" partition). It's required to successfully backport support for new devices using that new syntax in their DT files. Since brcm63xx has a custom alternative patch the upstream one is being reverted for it. The plan is to make brcm63xx use the upstream implementation. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

* kernel: backport mtd implementation for "compatible" in "partitions" subnodeRafał Miłecki2018-01-111-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | This backports upstream support for "compatible" DT property set for the "partitions" subnode of flash node. It allows specifying how partitions should be created/parsed. Right now only "fixed-partitions" is supported. It should eventually replace our downstream "linux,part-probe" solution. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
* kernel: generic: Add kernel 4.14 supportHauke Mehrtens2017-12-161-0/+123
This adds initial support for kernel 4.14 based on the patches for kernel 4.9. In the configuration I deactivated some of the new possible security features like: CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM And these overlay FS options are also deactivated: CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR I activated this: CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED I am not sure if I did the porting correct for the following patches: target/linux/generic/backport-4.14/020-backport_netfilter_rtcache.patch target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/220-gc_sections.patch target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/321-powerpc_crtsavres_prereq.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/305-mips_module_reloc.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/611-netfilter_match_bypass_default_table.patch target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/680-NET-skip-GRO-for-foreign-MAC-addresses.patch Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
