17.10 failed with a similar message to: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/772848/ but applying that patch did not solve it, apparently there were fixes already on later versions of the tracked package. Update .gitmodules to ignore patches we apply to Buildroot.

## How to update the Linux kernel version?
|
|
|
|
TODO I can only do it "easily" if the kernel headers are supported, check `buildroot/package/linux-headers/Config.in.host` to see if `BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_12` is there. Once you've found a supported version:
|
|
|
|
cd linux
|
|
git rebase --onto v4.12 v4.9.6
|
|
# git rebase --onto <new> <old base with our patches on top>
|
|
|
|
And on `buildroot_config_fragment` edit:
|
|
|
|
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_VERSION_VALUE="4.12"
|
|
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_12=y
|
|
|
|
## How to add new Buildroot options?
|
|
|
|
cd buildroot/output.x86_64~
|
|
make menuconfig
|
|
|
|
Hit `/` and search for the settings.
|
|
|
|
Save and quit.
|
|
|
|
diff .config.olg .config
|
|
|
|
Copy and paste the diff additions to `buildroot_config_fragment`.
