- Add packaging of .dtb files into linux-image-linaro-* packages.
Loic and I discussed putting them under /lib/dtb/`uname -r`/, but thinking about it more, it might make more sense to share the modules directory and use /lib/modules/`uname -r`/dtbs. The dtc tool needed
As the .dtb files will be naturally generated in the same kernel folder as kernel image sits, why do not we ship .dtb in the same folder as kernel image /boot?
to build the .dtbs is included with the kernel tree.
- Add relevant dtb files to boot partition in linaro-image tools
The .dtb files will be generated and shipped with unique name, which comes from .dts file name. But I intend to use the generic name, maybe something like board.dtb along with l-m-c, just like we use zImage and u-boot for all platforms in boot partition, so that l-m-c does not need to encode platform specific dtb filename.
Thoughts?
