Subject: hvmloader: add knob for fixed SMBIOS date string
X-Git-Tag: archive/raspbian/4.8.0-1+rpi1~1^2~3464
X-Git-Url: https://dgit.raspbian.org/%22http://www.example.com/cgi/%22/%22http:/www.example.com/cgi/%22?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b9245b75;p=xen.git

hvmloader: add knob for fixed SMBIOS date string

To allow reproducible builds of hvmloader introduce a make variable
SMBIOS_REL_DATE=mm/dd/yyyy to provide a fixed date string. Without this
change the hvmloader binary changes with every rebuild.
