I would like to get your feedback regarding the status of the Samsung SMDK6400 board: - It is not in boards.cfg, so, according to commit 1285a28, support for it should already have been removed a long time ago. It also seems to be the only board remaining in the main Makefile. - It uses the deprecated NAND SPL. - MAKEALL does not test its build, which has been broken for a while. - If it were removed or fixed, ARM1176's start.S' relocate_code() could be made identical to all the other implementations of this function, so all this duplicated code could be moved to a common location like crt0.S. Besides that, it would be possible to completely get rid of the legacy NAND SPL on ARM.
I have no intention of fixing this board, but dropping it and cleaning up ARM after that would be easy.
Best regards, Benoît
