Please let me know how to provide a patch. Basically when I type "git format-patch -M -n -s -o outgoing origin/master", nothing happens. Because you didn't do a git commit. Also, your file is a full .config file, while defconfig have to be minimal configuration files. So basically, you have do: 1/ make savedefconfig 2/ mv defconfig configs/sama5d4ek_defconfig 3/ git add configs/sama5d4ek_defconfig 4/ git commit -s 5/ git format-patch ... Note that my colleague Alexandre Belloni has anyway planned to do a refresh of all the Atmel defconfig in Buildroot.
