use them as they build with these chips. So I am looking for an opinion as to which strategy to use: Put the #ifdefs in Put the new options in without #ifdefs (a mpc8260 define changes the same bit as a mpc8272 one does) Duplicate the mpc8260.h into a mpc8272.h file or split out the processor specific sections into a separate include and have a single ifdef in the mpc8260.h that includes the right one. Or maybe no one is interested in these changes, I am open to suggestions.
We already support other MPC8272 based systems. They did not need such changes. What am I missing?
Also this platform has two processors (core disabled on the second one) and was wondering if anyone was interested in supporting more than one iop_conf_tab in the system. Right now the functions that set up the CPM
Sure - if it's done in a clean way.
interest I can also clean up these changes and send them up. Or did slave processors go out of vogue with the 68360.
I know only a single customer who did this (1 x MPC860 + 3 x 68360), but this predates U-Boot and Embedded Linux by a couple of years.
