Dear Simon Glass,
In message BANLkTi=ZL-WHPE9mXDgBZzXoEaZ10pBhsg@mail.gmail.com you wrote:
Being a boot loader, charged with basic hardware initialisation, I believe bitfield access primitives should be well-supported by U-Boot.
I agree, and they are.
Would you consider an RFC patch to add pan-U-Boot bitfield operations? Failing that, how about just for ARM?
I fail to understand what you mean. We already have such implementations in place. I just oobject against adding new, non-standard ones when the existing ones perform the same purpose.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

I think it's a new feature. Don't tell anyone it was an accident. :-)
