--- Comment #5 from Alexander Enchevich <a.enchevich at gmail.com> ---
The git repo for Broadcom's stblinux 3.3 is
https://github.com/Broadcom/stblinux-3.3.git. However it can not be used as a
git URL directly because the kernel is not at the top level but dir down. The
version I used is latest at time of filing this bug (tag: stblinux-3.3-4.2).

To make this kernel compile with the standard buildroot gcc compiler and
binutils I made a patch, because there was a problem with binutils > v.2.24.51
not being able to mix hard- and softfloat FPU mode/instructions.

Also the the gzip compression option was ignored, for which there is also
patch.
