This page contains information what is expected from a Mer Hardware Adaptation.

Kernel

Required kernel options:

Option Required since
Systemd
CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y
CONFIG_CGROUPS=y
CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS=[y|m]
CONFIG_IPV6=[y|m] optional, but highly recommended
 CONFIG_RTC_DRV_CMOS=y optional, but highly recommended
CONFIG_FANOTIFY=y optional, required for systemd readahead.
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH should be empty, if you want to use systemd without initramfs
CONFIG_AUDIT=y optional, but recommended
CONFIG_TMPFS_POSIX_ACL=y recommended, if you want pam_systemd.so to setup your "seats"

Patches

When compiling kernel for ARM with Mer 0.20110105.1 or newer

You will need to apply this patch to your kernel with this new Mer and toolchain release, if your kernels break on boot (they likely will). It will enable -mno-unaligned-access in your kernel compilation flags.
