Subject: Using openembedded with externally built kernel
Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2014 14:48:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <532065C9.30300@pseudoterminal.org> (raw)
I have a platform with a very barebones BSP that builds and patches a
2.6 kernel using a whole lot of shell scripts and patch files.
Integrating this build process into a .bb file is too complicated at the
moment.
Since cross compiling all packages I need is a nightmare to do manually,
I wonder if I can get OE to use the prebuilt kernel along with
its kernel modules and headers instead of trying to build a new kernel.
Ideally, I would just tell it where the kernel headers are, where
the uImage is, and where the modules are. I imagine this as some kind of
kernel .bb file setting things up to not actually build anything.
My question is: is this possible? All I could find was about external
toolchains and external kernel modules.
Carlos
