OK, so what is the deal with the 85xx patches
that have been submitted for more FDT support?
I get a variety of mixed stories, message and
vague comments. I want some facts and direction.
Can anyone verify, validate, refute, deny or
support any of these statements? Not trying to
be mean, point fingers or sound negative here,
I'm just trying to pinpoint the apparent log-jam.
1. The 85xx patches that Andy submitted, that
have been pulled into Kumar's 85xx git tree
are going to sit there until further patches
are submitted that _remove_all_85xx_support_
from the arch/ppc tree as well.
2. The same patches are going to sit in Kumar's
tree until 8560 patches with support for CPM
are released and all 85xx ports appear fully
and completely in arch/powerpc. BTW, CPM is
waiting on approval of Vitaly's CPM proposal
for OF FDT support.
3. Statements 1 and 2 combined.
4. The same 85xx patches have just slipped through
some mental crack and simply need to be pulled,
re-applied, re-drafted, re-submitted. Oops, sorry.
The action item is in _________'s lap.
5. There was an unresolved comment/issue that
FSL still needs to address. BTW, that issue
is ________.
6. We are waiting on something else and that
item is _______.
7. You know, you really need to address the _other_
85xx ports (such as TQMs) as well. Can you
please do something about those as well?
8. These Linux patches aren't going to be picked
up until the corresponding U-Boot patches are
picked up as well.
Thanks,
jdl
