We have a new hardware crypto device driver currently out for RFC on the linux-crypto mailing list and would like to back-port it to the Yocto Linux kernels once it is committed upstream. What is the process for getting it into the current dev kernel as well as linux-yocto-3.10 and linux-yocto-3.14? I've already done the back-port to the three Yocto Linux kernels and found that just 1 or 2 (depending on the kernel) other patches would also be needed. Is back-porting these patches also allowed as long as they do no harm to anything else?
The device also requires a firmware component which has already been committed to the upstream linux-firmware repository. How does this get into Yocto? Thanks, Bruce Allan.
