poking around the conf files and i noticed the following two files (one from oe-core, obviously) had the following definitions:
$ grep -r KERNEL.*IMAGETYPE.*vmlinux * meta/conf/machine/qemumips.conf:KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "vmlinux" meta/conf/machine/qemumips.conf:KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE = "vmlinux.bin" ... snip ppc line ... meta-yocto/conf/machine/routerstationpro.conf:KERNEL_IMAGETYPE = "vmlinux" meta-yocto/conf/machine/routerstationpro.conf:KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE = "vmlinux.bin" $ obviously, the above represents the MIPS architecture in both cases and, unsurprisingly, assign the same values to those variables. since both of those files contain the line: require conf/machine/include/tune-mips32.inc under what circumstances could you move those common lines down into the corresponding tune-<arch>.inc file? i know next to nothing about MIPS cross-compiling so i have no idea whether that's feasible, or whether it's reasonable to set default values and let the BSP override them. does this question make any sense? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
