We do use Yocto for our SDK, but there's always going to be a need to be able to build kernels outside of Yocto. The kernel should be self-contained regarding its own configuration. merge_config.sh isn't "rolling our own solution". It's a standard kernel tool. x86 already has a couple config fragments defined. -Scott _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
