Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH] env: Add the ability to merge the saved env with the default.

Dear Doug Anderson,

In message CAD=FV=Ws+FuCqUXRd3-PJS-2y5PTspgegMftvTOQqhK=96y9MQ@mail.gmail.com you wrote:

It's not quite possible to just import the default from the saved for two reasons:

1. I don't know of any way to import the default. It's not stored at any

well-known address or with any well-known size.

Then save it to a well-known address. env reset followed by env export should be a reasonably straughtforward way to get there.

2. The order of precedence would be a little different (default would

override saved).

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. You can chose if you import the saved defaults before or after your private settings.

...but I think you're right that using "env import" is the better way to go. I can always have the default boot command load the "overrides" into memory and the import them. That works just fine for us.

Thank you for your review and suggestion!

Please consider this patch abandoned.

Done. Thanks.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
