Kernel configuration of zImage_mfgtool

[ko-hey]

Hi all

I want to know the kernel configuration setting of zImage_mfgtool.

How can I know it ?

I used the MFGTool to write a image to eMMC.

When I use the our custom kernel, it failed to write.

On the other hand, when I use the zImage_mfgtool, it success.

So I want to compare the kernel to know the difference between them.

Hello,

  From section 6.2 (Manufacturing Tool, MFGTool) of “i.MX_Yocto_Project_User's_Guide.pdf”

  A manufacturing tool kernel is built using the imx_v7_mfg_defconfig

while the default kernel is built by using the imx_v7_defconfig.

(/arch/arm/configs/imx_v7_mfg_defconfig)

  Since the mfg recipe uses default configuration file to build u-boot and kernel - adaptation of default kernel and U-boot configurations may be needed.

  In krogoth release there are sometimes task hask mismatch errors.

A fix for this is to build linux-imx first then clean the linux-mfgtools then bitbake the fsl-image-mfgtool-initramfs.

Have a great day,
Yuri
