Hi,
I'm just working on a new, updated version of ams_delta_defconfig. Starting
from the current version, created over 2 years ago for 2.6.22, I turned on a
few device drivers that was added recently, turned on thumb instructions
support, turned on EABI, kept old ABI compatibility and NWFPE, and got a
resulting kernel that is ~170kB too large to be successfully booted using
tools available at http://the.earth.li/pub/e3/.
Of course, I am able to trim that down, even adding a few more drivers for
add-on hardware that I am using, and get a kernel that works perfectly for
me, but since I have never prepared a default config, I'd like to get your
advice on what I can remove and what should rather be kept untouched.
Instead of pasting sixteen hundred lines here, I'd rather ask about the
simplest change I can see:
-# CONFIG_EMBEDDED is not set
-CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y
+CONFIG_EMBEDDED=y
+# CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set
That would give me a kernel that is small enough, but since only a few of arm
defconfigs have CONFIG_KALLSYMS not set, I am not sure if it is generally
acceptable.
Send that as a fix to this list with the minimal changes,
we should still be able to get it in as a fix during the -rc
series.
If you want to update the whole defconfig, we need to wait
for the merge window.
Just do the diff -u, then edit the patch to leave out all
the other hunks except the one above.
Regards,
Tony
