Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 3/9] grub: replace string option for filesystem selection by booleans
Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2013 20:38:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131228193827.GH3373@free.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1388242600-2580-4-git-send-email-thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
Thomas, All,
On 2013-12-28 15:56 +0100, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> In 1cece2813bf635ae29e9a8287322439b9c5992f7 (grub: add option to
> configure the list of supported filesystems), we introduced the
> BR2_TARGET_GRUB_FS_SUPPORT option which allows to provide a
> space-separated list of filesystems that Grub should support.
>
> However, it turns out that this not very practical, because the
> iso9660 filesystem logic in Buildroot should force the ISO9660 support
> to be enabled in Grub, which is not easy to do with a string option.
>
> Therefore, this patch changes this option from a string option to a
> list of boolean option, one per filesystem supported.
>
> A few useful details:
>
> - Since Grub legacy is dead, the list of filesystem, and therefore
> the number of options, will not grow.
>
> - We have only added options for filesystems that are likely to be
> used in an embedded Linux context. Filesystems such as VSTAfs,
> Minix, UFS2 or FFS2 are not supported.
>
> - There is no need to add some Config.in.legacy support for the
> previous option, since it was added after Buildroot 2013.11, and
> was therefore never part of an official Buildroot release.
>
> Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
