From f3f431a712729a1af94d01bd1bfde17a252ff02c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Kocialkowski Date: Sun, 26 Jul 2015 18:48:15 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Reproducible U-Boot build support, using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH In order to achieve reproducible builds in U-Boot, timestamps that are defined at build-time have to be somewhat eliminated. The SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable allows setting a fixed value for those timestamps. Simply by setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to a fixed value, a number of targets can be built reproducibly. This is the case for e.g. sunxi devices. However, some other devices might need some more tweaks, especially regarding the image generation tools.
