the following patch was just integrated into master: commit e8e118dd324e32070a1550e3f8ff90dd6fad72f8 Author: Aaron Durbin adurbin@chromium.org Date: Fri Aug 12 15:00:10 2016 -0500
Kconfig: introduce writable boot device notion
Indicate to the build system that a platform provides support for a writable boot device. The following will provide the necessary support:
COMMON_CBFS_SPI_WRAPPER users soc/intel/apollolake soc/intel/baytrail soc/intel/braswell soc/intel/broadwell soc/intel/skylake
The SPI_FLASH option is auto-selected if the platform provides write supoprt for the boot device and SPI flash is the boot device.
Other platforms may provide similar support, but they do that in a device specific manner such as selecting SPI_FLASH explicitly. This provides clearance against build failures where chipsets don't provide SPI API implementations even though the platform may use a SPI flash to boot.
