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,
|
||||
and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed
|
||||
and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed
|
||||
from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this
|
||||
file.
|
||||
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
What: CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC option
|
||||
When: After Release 2011.03
|
||||
|
||||
Why: The implementation of U-Boot for the ARM architecture has
|
||||
been reworked to support relocation. This allows to
|
||||
efficiently use the same U-Boot binary image on systems with
|
||||
different RAM sizes, and brings the implementation much more
|
||||
in line with the code used for example on Power Architecture
|
||||
systems (eventually allowing to merge into common code). This
|
||||
seems especailly interesting now that ARM is getting Device
|
||||
Tree support as well.
|
||||
|
||||
All ARM boards need to be adapted to this new code, which
|
||||
requires testing on the actual hardware, so this is a task
|
||||
for the respective board maintainers or other users.
|
||||
|
||||
Please see the commit message of commit f1d2b31 for details:
|
||||
|
||||
http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=f1d2b31
|
||||
|
||||
Support for CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC will be removed
|
||||
after release v2011.03; all boards that have not been
|
||||
converted by then, i. e. that are still broken then, are
|
||||
considered unmaintained and without interest for the
|
||||
community and will be removed as well.

|

What: CONFIG_NET_MULTI option
