Subject: [PATCH] kernel.bbclass: Allow modules.tar.gz generation to be inhibited
Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2012 22:45:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1348436710.4444.247.camel@x121e.pbcl.net> (raw)

The modules.tar.gz archive is sometimes of no value and it can take
a noticeable time to build if many modules were enabled in the kernel
configuration.  The extraneous file also contributes to deploy/ clutter
and is a waste of disk space.

Allow it to be suppressed by setting KERNEL_DEPLOY_MODULE_TARBALL=0.
