Dear Lin,
The following is the status XU Hong is reporting to me on u-boot-atmel/master. I saw it has been silent for 2 days. I don’t know if we could do something to help maintain all the boards. I will try to help allocate some of my people to handling missing parts for our EK.
I send a message about 2 days ago, asking that the SoC relevant parts are changed in a manner consistent with the changes for the 9260, like in at91sam9260_devices.c, at91sam9260.h, at91sam9260_matrix.h.
Once that is done, and added to u-boot-atmel/master, the board specific patches should be rebased on that and submitted.
Since nobody did volunteer so far, I was going to edit the SoC specific parts and submit them, but unfortunately that could take some time (until next week maybe, I was going to start today with that, but have paid work to finish as well :) )
I am not fond of quick and dirty solutions here, the boards are not going to be removed with this u-boot release, but will be after if no progress is seen - but we do have progress here - so no need to panic.
So lets do it in two distinct steps: 1. fix SoCs 2. fix boards
9261 soc & ek have been merged to atmel branch. 9rl – v3 patches have been pushed out just now and shall be ok. 9263 – soc part has been merged into atmel branch. I’m asking the ek part. 9g45 - patches were sent by 3rd party.
The SoC specific changes will/should be based before those patches, and will replace the current ones.

Dear Friends,
I have received several different patches reworking
"at91sam*_devices.c"
and
"at91sam9*.h".
Lokking at them, none of them is completely done the way the files for at91sam9260 are done.
Examples:
9260, 9263: ATMEL_ID_USART0 9261: ATMEL_ID_US0
9260 uses the CONFIG_AT91_GPIO_PULLUP define, the others do not.
9261 still uses the CONFIG_USARTx defines.
Please have a look at at91sam9260 as a reference.
We do need a properly fixed SoC port for 9261, 9263 and the others before individual board ports can be fixed.
Just because there is a sudden rush to get things fixed for the next release should NOT tempt us to get in interim versions.
With Best Regards, Reinhard
