BSP 5.10.9 Kernel patching with quilt

[bensonyoung]

Hello,

I am using iMX7D processor on my project, and I am migrating from BSP 4.9.11 to BSP 5.10.9. With the latest BSP, I have noticed that patches applied to the kernel was done using git rather than quilt.

this makes kernel patch creation to be a pain, as I will have to compile the entire linux kernel with all the patches applied to the kernel, and unable to leverage quilt's push and pop function to let me apply/remove patches.

Is there any configuration setting I can use to set quilt as the default tool for kernel patching?

Maybe you can try git-quiltimport command. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/766759/what-is-a-quilt-patchset for details.
