# 299293 10-May-2016 gjb

Update share/examples/* to properly install /usr/share/examples.

As result of this, a new examples package is now created.

Note, this is only effective with 'SHARED=copies' (the default),
as the 'SHARED=symlinks' mechanism will create a symlink to the
source tree version of the file(s).

# 220256 01-Apr-2011 emaste

Uuencode the sample "binary" firmware image file (instead of explicitly
adding \0 bytes). This is a technique that would be used in an actual
driver and is more suitable as an example.

# 220205 31-Mar-2011 emaste

Avoid having a binary file in our source tree and instead create it at
build time, to avoid possible grief maintaining FreeBSD source in
alternative version control tools.


# 154974 29-Jan-2006 mlaier

firmware(9) is a subsystem to load binary data into the kernel via a
specially crafted module. There are several handrolled sollutions to this
problem in the tree already which will be replaced with this. They include
iwi(4), ipw(4), ispfw(4) and digi(4).
