The recommended way to + use these is to run "make firmware_install" and to copy the + resulting binary files created in usr/lib/firmware directory + of the kernel tree to the /lib/firmware on your system so + that they can be loaded by userspace helpers on request. + + Enabling this option will build each required firmware blob + into the kernel directly, where request_firmware() will find + them without having to call out to userspace. This may be + useful if your root file system requires a device which uses + such firmware, and do not wish to use an initrd. + + This single option controls the inclusion of firmware for + every driver which usees request_firmare() and ships its + firmware in the kernel source tree, to avoid a proliferation + of 'Include firmware for xxx device' options. + + Say 'N' and let firmware be loaded from userspace. + +config EXTRA_FIRMWARE + string "External firmware blobs to build into the kernel binary" + depends on FW_LOADER + help + This option allows firmware to be built into the kernel, for the + cases where the user either cannot or doesn't want to provide it from + userspace at runtime (for example, when the firmware in question is + required for accessing the boot device, and the user doesn't want to + use an initrd). + + This option is a string, and takes the (space-separated) names of the + firmware files -- the same names which appear in MODULE_FIRMWARE() + and request_firmware() in the source. These files should exist under + the directory specified by the EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR option, which is + by default the firmware/ subdirectory of the kernel source tree. + + So, for example, you might set CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="usb8388.bin", + copy the usb8388.bin file into the firmware/ directory, and build the + kernel. Then any request_firmware("usb8388.bin") will be + satisfied internally without needing to call out to userspace. + + WARNING: If you include additional firmware files into your binary + kernel image which are not available under the terms of the GPL, + then it may be a violation of the GPL to distribute the resulting + image -- since it combines both GPL and non-GPL work.
