Would something similar need to be done for the mt76x8 subtarget?
I just have a single one of these but I reckon they are equally
flash-starved...
But if KERNEL_SIZE/IMAGE_SIZE is set properly there, those would just
fail to build, so no harm could be done?
That is a valid point. I checked master:
$ grep "define Device" image/mt7620.mk|wc -l
119
$ grep \ KERNEL_SIZE image/mt7620.mk|wc -l
1
$ grep "define Device" image/mt76x8.mk|wc -l
80
$ grep \ KERNEL_SIZE image/mt76x8.mk|wc -l
0
That's not encouraging I guess :-P. And just having IMAGE_SIZE defined
won't prevent the bootloader from choking on an oversized kernel, or am
I wrong about that?
