The following is a list of files and features that are going to be
|
|
|
|
|
removed from the U-Boot source tree. Every entry should contain what
|
|
|
|
|
exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed,
|
2010-09-29 09:25:55 +00:00
|
|
|
and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed
|
2009-01-30 22:36:40 +00:00
|
|
|
from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this
|
|
|
|
|
file.

|
What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code
|
|
|
|
|
When: undetermined
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why: We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY
|
|
|
|
|
drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and
|
|
|
|
|
all old drivers should get converted to use it.

Who: Andy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> and driver maintainers

|
|
|
What: boards with xxx_config targets in top level Makefile
|
|
|
|
|
When: Release v2012.03
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why: We have a boards.cfg file which the vast majority of boards have
|
|
|
|
|
converted over to. Boards that still manually run mkconfig in the
|
|
|
|
|
top level Makefile are either dead, or the maintainer doesn't care,
|
|
|
|
|
or they are doing something weird/wrong that should be fixed in a
|
|
|
|
|
different way, or they need to extend boards.cfg syntax (unlikely).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In any case, if no one cares about these boards to figure out how
|
|
|
|
|
to make boards.cfg work, then we'll just punt them.

|
|
What: GPL cleanup
|
|
|
|
|
When: August 2009
|
|
|
|
|
Why: Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot
|
|
|
|
|
source code that are either missing a valid GPL license
|
|
|
|
|
header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the
|
|
|
|
|
GPL.
|
|
|
|
|
Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree.
|
|
|
|
|
See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files
|
|
|
|
|
for an old and probably incomplete list of such files.
