I got th following error while building meta-sysmocom-bsp in my
ArchLinux setup, probably due to using a newer git version.
ExpansionError: Failure expanding variable REPOGITFN,
expression was ${@get_repo_gitfn(d, '.../system-images/git/meta-sysmocom-bsp/recipes-support/lc15-sysdev-remap/files', '')
REPOGITFN is expanded using function get_repo_gitfn in
gitver-repo.bbclass, which ends up calling:
git -C .../system-images/git/meta-sysmocom-bsp/recipes-support/lc15-sysdev-remap/files rev-list --count HEAD ''
fatal: empty string is not a valid pathspec. please use . instead if you meant to match all paths
After switch to linux 4.9.14, make oldconfig run by OE was disabling
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE even if original defconfig had it enabled
as a module. This target is required for osmo-ggsn.
According to documentation, they are deprecated by
KERNEL_MODULE_AUTOLOAD:
WARNING: linux-sysmocom-4.9.14+gitAUTOINC+8d5d275254-r1 do_package: module_autoload_leds-gpio was replaced by KERNEL_MODULE_AUTOLOAD for cases where basename == module name, please drop it

Modules in lib/ net/ and mtd/ are ignored as they do not seem to be
relevant. Previous patch did not include it due to interdependency
problems between kernel modules which are not resolved
automatically. This is fixed now.
Yocto master has introduced GCC5 and this doesn't like to compile
the older linux kernels yet. This year it is time to move to a newer
LTS kernel and this can be Linux-4.1. Make space for the upgrade
by moving the recipe to a new name.
In fido the old autoload feature doesn't work anymore and we
need to remove it. Otherwise our sysmobts.service file will
create the /dev/dspl.. /dev/fpgadl... firmware upload files
and we all think that firmware loading is working.
The reverse dependency appears broken. Add a comment to
the recipes to warn us when updating. The issue does not
appear to exist in master of Yocto.

* Disable ext2/ext3 (as ext4 can be used to mount them).
* Enable AUFS/Squshfs support
* Misc improvements (e.g. ARM optimized AES code, disable
drivers/frameworks unlikely to be used)
Jan prefers to store the fully extended .config file so we will
do it. One advantage is to more easily see what has changed between
two kernel versions.

I think the last device we sold was in 2011 and I am not aware
if anyone has used it for the last couple of years. Remove it
to lower the complexity of the builds.
linux-sysmocom_git.bb is used for the BTS, BSC and IDU. Let's
really use 3.10.76 (from 3.10.50 just rebased and not tested
on the device yet). This should fix the Yocto-Master build
tonight.

It seems like the kernel/package/upgrade/... proceess doesn't deal well
with the fact that some options used to be modules, which are now
built-in. Let's keep it as modules for the time being.
this enables conntrack events, ipset, ebtables, tc
scheduler/classifiers/ematches and much more.
it also disables the ATM code for which I don't think we have any use
case.
