ccache, samba36: fix samba.org addresses to use https

2017-02-01T23:26:05Z

samba.org has started to enforce https and currently plain http downloads with curl/wget fail, so convert samba.org download links to use https. Modernise links at the same time. Also convert samba.org URL fields to have https. Signed-off-by: Hannu Nyman

x86: disable crashlog

2017-01-13T14:15:09Z

It could cause crashes with some forms of virtualization, and it is unlikely to work properly with most systems. It's safer to just disable it. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau

build: remove obsolete parallel build related options

2017-01-10T11:10:20Z

Always use the main make jobserver, which has been the default for ages Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau

kernel: add KERNEL_DEVMEM and KERNEL_DEVKMEM

2016-12-24T13:55:35Z

These options are needed to create /dev/mem or /dev/kmem . /dev/mem is needed by the io tool to access raw hardware memory, which is helpful when debugging and developing drivers. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens Acked-by: John Crispin

x86: revert default root size back to 256 MB

2016-12-15T10:46:01Z

2 GB is overkill and was only added to allow unlimited ext4 resizing, which is a pretty rare use case. 256 MB allows resizing up to 256 GB, which should be good enough for almost all users. A lot of this is mostly irrelevant anyway, since you can just use squashfs + ext4 overlay. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau

kernel: add KERNEL_DEBUG_PINCTRL and KERNEL_DEBUG_GPIO

2016-12-10T15:06:34Z

This makes it possible to activate the gpio and the pinctl debugging from LEDE menuconfig. Acked-by: John Crispin Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens

uml: clean up the kernel config and add squashfs+ext4/f2fs support

Replaces plain ext4 images Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau

x86: bump default kernel partition size to 16M

2016-11-09T11:17:52Z

This leaves more room for sysupgrade config data or for having multiple kernel images to choose from Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau

config: ext4: increase x86 rootfs size to 2GB to support online resize2fs

2016-10-27T17:24:38Z

The current default rootfs size of 256MB in conjunction with 4K blocks produces an ext4 filesystem which lacks the appropriate amount of backup GDT entries to support online-resizing. For x86 targets, increase the default rootfs size to 2048MB which allows online resizing the filesystem to up to 2TB which is the current theoretical maximum for LEDE, due to missing GPT support on the root block device. Note that the filesystem artefact will not occupy 2GB on the build system as the make_ext4fs utility uses sparse files to generate the filesystem images, so the actual disk usage is much lower. Furthermore the filesystem images are gzip compressed, shrinking them to only a few megabytes on the download server. Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich Acked-by: Michael Heimpold

config: ext4: drop option to set maximum number of inodes

2016-10-27T17:24:38Z

There is very little practical use to limit the number of available inodes on an ext4 filesystem and the make_ext4fs utility is able to calculate useful defaults by itself. Drop the option to make resulting ext4 filesystems more flexible by default. Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich Acked-by: Michael Heimpold
