Dear Tom,

My concern is that we'll get people complaining about things not being mapped back exactly right. For example, MAKEALL am335x_evm builds one board, am335x_evm_config but buildman am335x_evm builds the whole family of configs. For a build test bisect run, that's fine (even if not optimal in that it'll build more than required). In fact if I read things right (Simon?) buildman is bad for a single board/config.
This is one of my open questions with buildman, too. Simon?
Yes it does a substring match. I'm open to suggestions on this though. It actually supports regular expressions.
If we map out MAKEALL's -m/-M to just fail and say use get_maintainer.pl I think we can "good enough" map out everything else. With perhaps an echo to please use buildman directly when possible?
Sounds good enough to me.
Thanks!
Regards, Simon
