Dear Haarvard,

I've created a stripped-down patchset for AVR32 which can be downloaded from http://avr32linux.org/patches/u-boot/1.1.4-hs1/. The various files there should be familiar to anyone who have used -mm versions of the Linux kernel. The various formats are also explained at http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/UbootPatches
Ummm.. I assume that http://avr32linux.org/patches/u-boot/1.1.4-hs1/u-boot-1.1.4-hs1.patch.bz2 contains everything, right?
Well, everything and more, actually. It also contains "upstream.patch" which is everything between U-Boot 1.1.4 and the git head I rebased against.
Sorry I forgot to mention that. It's explained on the UbootPatches page I mentioned, though.
If anyone would take a look and tell me what you think should be done differently, I would be very grateful. Ulf, have you looked at the patches before? Do you have any comments?
Yes, please read the README, and follow the rules given there.
Uh...could you please be more specific? I know some of the patches are too large, but it's hard to split them up any further. I thought I'd keep them off the list to avoid bothering people who don't really care about the AVR32 port, but I can of course post them if you want me to.
The only other things I can think about are CHANGELOG and CREDITS entries, although the Subject: line in each patch should be suitable for the changelog, no?
The patch might have been built against an ancient version of the software - this is of no use.
Indeed. But you really shouldn't apply the "combined" patch -- I intended that one for people who want to test stuff without having to figure out the exact git state I made the patchset against.
Also, as I mentioned in the previous mail, some of the patches have been submitted before, and some should not be applied at all. Here are the patches you may want consider:
http://avr32linux.org/patches/u-boot/1.1.4-hs1/broken-out/avr32-arch.patch http://avr32linux.org/patches/u-boot/1.1.4-hs1/broken-out/at32ap-cpu.patch http://avr32linux.org/patches/u-boot/1.1.4-hs1/broken-out/atmel-usart.patch http://avr32linux.org/patches/u-boot/1.1.4-hs1/broken-out/atstk1000-board.pa...
These patches are all on mbox format, so if you want to merge them into a git branch for testing, simply feed them to git-am.
If you want me to combine these patches into a single package, please let me know.
Sorry for the noise.
