This is the third patch-set of the new uImage format work. It concludes the phase of clean-up and reorganization of the old format code, preparing the ground for adding the code implementing the new format.
All the new uImage patches sent to the list so far, as well as updates resulting from the feedback received, will be soon available from the new-image branch of the u-boot-testing repository (there will be a separate announcement).
The completion of the clean-up phase is a good moment to review the patches posted to date, and help with testing. This work affects all architectures and operating systems, so it would be much appreciated if people could give u-boot-testing#new-image a try and report back. So far, the changes were tested on a lite5200b board and successfully built for ppc, arm, mips and coldfire targets.
Work is now ongoing on adding support for the new format, results will be posted to the list, and also available from u-boot-testing#new-image. Once the implementation is complete, and the code is reviewed and tested, it will be merged to the master.
