Hello All,
I started a server to do only daily builds of all U-boot board configurations. (currently on a old slow box, but it works, it takes about 2 hours to build all boards for ARM only)
The primary goal was to find early compile regressions in the u-boot-USB tree that I maintain, before pushing patches to mainline. To find a regression compared to u-boot mainline, the u-boot mainline (master branch) also needs to build, so I build that tree also daily from now.
Currently I only build for ARM based boards, but there is no limit on architectures, if I have all the cross-compilers. I use the Denx ELDK for ARM as cross-compile toolchain.
First, I discovered some build failures of which the logging is listed below. What can we do about these errors? Are these boards still maintained? Should these be fixed? Who wants to fix them? I currently run the 'MAKEALL arm' script to build all these boards, so either the boards should be fixed, or if no longer maintained removed (at least from the MAKEALL script)
I do the same weekly and on patch commit on arm and other arch as ppc, mips, sh4
for ARM I use different toolchains
Further, is there any interest to make the daily build results public?
- Is it appreciated if I post the build results in a daily post to the
mailinglist, _if_ there is a build failure? (No news is good news) What format is preferred?
- Or is it preferred to post the results on a website?
- Or ...
a mail notice to the custodian will nice on new build issue and a website

The problem are already known and I've send patch to fix it just before my vacation

we can not add the IxNpeMicrocode.c due to licencing issue a new way has be commit to allow the FW to be load from flash instead of built-in
