Subject: [PATCH 0/3][RFC] Remove ELF Image Type
Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2017 17:10:32 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171205011035.14908-1-sgw@linux.intel.com> (raw)
The ELF Image type is not currently used any more by the
coreboot project which was the original creator of this
image type along with the mkelfimage tool. The tool was
removed from the coreboot repo back in 2014 and has no
updates. Each time binutils changes, the mkelfimage tool
breaks and requires a patch to the convert.bin.c special
header file.
I beleive I got all the bit.
If I don't hear any concerns, I will move this to a regular
patch later this week.
Sau!
