The helpful shortcut for doing a board config + make was dropped recently as it conflicted with some new build code. However, the reason for using pattern targets originally was to avoid managing a duplicate list of boards. Since we now have one centralized place for a list of boards (the new boards.cfg), we don't need a pattern target -- we can generate the exact list of boards on the fly. So do just that.
hmm, i guess boards.cfg doesnt contain 100% of the boards as it doesnt support the ones that use the -t option to mkconfig or other exotic things, but i think this patch is still good to go
Yep, the generalization of the "-t" construct for boards.cfg is still missing. This will end up by being one entry in boards.cfg for all supported targets and then "-t" for mkconfig can go away.
So yes, the patch is good.
Wolfgang, what was our last idea that "-t" construct? Unfortunately I cannot remember...
