USB: serial: keyspan: Drop firmware Kconfig options
The USB_SERIAL_KEYSPAN_* firmware options no longer do anything.
No reason to have complex version-dependent conditionals when the
question mark already handles this just as well.
Also add RUNTIME_TESTING_MENU setting which nicely disables all of this
on >= 4.16.
- defined buildLinux as generic.nix instead of manual-config.nix. This
makes kernel derivations a tad more similar to your typical derivations.
- moved $buildRoot to within the source folder, this way it doesn't have to be created before the unpackPhase
and make it easier to work on kernel source without running the unpackPhase
With this disabled, cameras would not get a `/dev/mediaX` entry matching
the `/dev/videoX` which broke any application (e.g: `uvcdynctrl -l`,
`media-ctl -p`) depending on this interface.
Since we don't have a split debug info output yet, don't waste time
writing several gigabytes of debug info that's all going to be stripped
out at the end.
This change only affects Aarch64 (where some joker has enabled it in the
architecture defconfig) and is a no-op on the others.
There is no maintainer for this package, probably not many users.
It requires effort to fix all third-party modules for this old kernel
versions. It might contain unpatched security holes.
For Pixel chromebooks, we have the samus-kernel.
Apart from that https://github.com/GalliumOS/linux might be a good choice.
There's an upstream build failure on ARM (not directly related to Xen
but rather some other config options it enables). The xen package is
x86_64-only anyways.
Linux 4.9 includes experimental amdgpu support for AMD Southern Islands
chipsets. (By default, only Sea Islands and newer chipsets are supported.)
Southern Islands chips will still use radeon by default, but daring users may
set `services.xserver.videoDrivers = [ "amdgpu" ];` to try the experimental
driver.
The plan is to fix mounting DFS shares on NixOS (for which some of these
options are needed), but I figured it might be a good idea to enable all
CONFIG_CIFS_* like Fedora 24 and Ubuntu 16.04 while at it. Ubuntu even
has CONFIG_CIFS_SMB311, but as Fedora do not, I left it out.
Mounting DFS shares still doesn't work; need to configure cifs.upcall
and /etc/request-key.conf. Until then, using GVFS as a workaround.
