[Buildroot] [git commit] rtl8188eu: new package

From: Thomas Petazzoni <hidden>
Date: 2015-07-27 21:40:56
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=ff6ba2f7e512ab8617265003ea2917187e2f74af
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

[Thomas:
  - remove patches 0001 and 0002, they are not needed since when using
    the kernel-module infrastructure, we directly call the kernel
    build system and bypass the one provided by the external module
  - install the firmware directly in the Buildroot .mk file, which
    allows to also remove patch 0003.
  - remove RTL8188EU_DEPENDENCIES = linux, since this is already
    handled by the kernel-module infrastructure.]

+	  A standalone driver for the RTL8188EU USB Wi-Fi adapter.
+	  This is needed only for Linux kernels before 3.12.
+	  Since 3.12, there is a (staging) driver in mainline, with a similar
+	  codebase.
+
+	  Make sure your target kernel has the CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT config
+	  option enabled.
+
+	  Note: this package needs a firmware loading mechanism to load the
+	  binary blob for the chip to work.
