This allows kernel developer to embed a default bootconfig file in
the kernel instead of embedding it in the initrd. This will be good
for who are using the kernel without initrd, or who needs a default
bootconfigs.
This needs to set two kconfigs: CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG=y and set
the file path to CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG_FILE.

Note that you still need 'bootconfig' command line option to load the
embedded bootconfig. Also if you boot using an initrd with a different
bootconfig, the kernel will use the bootconfig in the initrd, instead
of the default bootconfig.

 Changes in v3:
  - Avoid updating the default.bconf if the file is not changed.

I think lib/.gitignore is alphabetically sorted.

Please insert the new one
to the proper line.

I did not test this patch, but presumably
"make clean" will miss to clean up default.bconf

The 'targets' must exist outside the ifeq-block.
Move the 'endif' up.


ifeq ($(CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG),y)
$(obj)/bootconfig.o: $(obj)/default.bconf
endif

targets += default.bconf

This will work, but users will be confused when they
try to build out-of-tree with the O= option.

If CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG_FILE is a relative path,
it is actually relative to the object tree, not the source tree.
I am not sure if that is the expected behavior, but it is not documented
anywhere.


If you want to search both in the objtree and srctree,
you can write like follows:   [UNTESTED]


filechk_defbconf = cat $(or $(real-prereqs), /dev/null)
$(obj)/default.bconf: $(CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG_FILE) FORCE
        $(call filechk,defbconf)

You're right! I didn't know this behavior. Thanks for the notice.
I misunderstood that the files in targets always be built...

After moving the 'targets' out of ifeq-block, I confirmed that the
default.bconf was not generated when CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG is not
set, and it is cleaned up when CONFIG_EMBED_BOOT_CONFIG=y.
Thanks!

Yes, that's right. I would like to fix this issue.

Great! let me check it works.
