Peter, All,

Of course, I missed providing a suggestion, so here it is, see below...

First, I think we should merge INSTALL_FILES and INSTALL_DIRS together
in a single command; there is no reason why we could not put directories
in a tarball...
Seconf, we should =create the archive once in _BUILD_CMDS. Then we can
extract it in _INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS and _INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS.
define LINUX_FIRMWARE_BUILD_CMDS
cd $(@D) && \
$(TAR) cf br-firmware.tar $(sort $(LINUX_FIRMWARE_FILES) $(LINUX_FIRMWARE_DIRS))
endef
define LINUX_FIRMWARE_INSTALL
mkdir -p $(1)
$(TAR) xf $(@D)/br-firmware.tar -C $(1)
sed -r -e '/^Link: (.+) -> (.+)$$/!d; s//\1 \2/' $(@D)/WHENCE |
blabla actual code to create symlinks
endef
define LINUX_FIRMWARE_INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS
$(call LINUX_FIRMWARE_INSTALL, $(TARGET_DIR)/lib/firmware)
endef
define LINUX_FIRMWARE_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS
$(call LINUX_FIRMWARE_INSTALL, $(IMAGES_DIR)/linux-firmware)
endef
Totally untested, written directly in the mail...
