[armbian/build] How to configure U-Boot source before applying patches?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I am working on a PR[0] to the Armbian build framework. As suggested in the PR, I am trying to use the upstream U-Boot source and apply the required patches[1][2] on top of it. One of the patch series[2] requires a git subtree[3] to be added to the U-Boot source before applying the patch itself. However, it seems that Armbian's build framework first attempts to apply the required patches[4] on the U-Boot source and then calls the pre_config_uboot_target hook[5]. Currently, I've put the code to add the git subtree in the pre_config_uboot_target hook. As a result, the required patch series are not getting applied.
 

Is there any way in which we can configure the U-Boot source first before applying the patches to it?

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
