[PATCH v5] arm: Add Kconfig entry to select CONFIG_DTB_FILE
Posted by Michal Orzel 3 years ago
Currently in order to link existing DTB into Xen image
we need to either specify option CONFIG_DTB_FILE on the
command line or manually add it into .config.
Add Kconfig entry: CONFIG_DTB_FILE
to be able to provide the path to DTB we want to embed
into Xen image. If no path provided - the dtb will not
be embedded.

Remove the line: AFLAGS-y += -DCONFIG_DTB_FILE=\"$(CONFIG_DTB_FILE)\"
as it is not needed since Kconfig will define it in a header
with all the other config options.

Make a change in the linker script from:
_sdtb = .;
to:
PROVIDE(_sdtb = .);
to avoid creation of _sdtb if there is no reference to it.

.. the now pointless (always true) #ifdef here should also go
away.
