another observation about header files, this time related to nios/nios2:
$ grep -r CONFIG_NIOS * arch/nios2/config.mk:PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS += -DCONFIG_NIOS2 -D__NIOS2__ arch/nios2/cpu/epcs.c:#endif /* CONFIG_NIOS_EPCS */ board/psyent/common/AMDLV065D.c:#if defined(CONFIG_NIOS) <-- ??? board/altera/common/AMDLV065D.c:#if defined(CONFIG_NIOS) <-- ??? common/cmd_bdinfo.c:#elif defined(CONFIG_NIOS2) examples/standalone/stubs.c:#elif defined(CONFIG_NIOS2) $
first, given that there is no "nios" architecture anymore, isn't that preprocessor test of:
#if defined(CONFIG_NIOS)
in those two files always going to be false? the usage is:
#if defined(CONFIG_NIOS) #include <nios.h> #else #include <asm/io.h> #endif
and there *is* no nios.h file, anyway, so that pretty clearly looks like a removable test. more to the point, the same source file -- AMDLV065D.c -- is in two different directories, and they differ slightly:
$ diff board/{altera,psyent}/common/AMDLV065D.c 175c175 < writeb (b, dst); ---
writeb (dst, b);
$
that looks kind of weird, doesn't it? i haven't looked any more closely but for two source files with the same name to have that single, subtle difference just looks strange.
