Dear Wolfgang Denk,
Dear Reinhard Meyer,

We should have one function like "show_status(int status)" with various statuses defined like: LED_STATUS_RESET, _BEFORE_RELOC, _AFTER_RELOC, _SENT_DHCP, _STARTING_KERNEL, _CRASHED, ...
Keep the existing code, and just turn the current set of numbers into an enum.
What current code?
1. show_boot_progress() is quite close, but has hundreds of values... Not sure a enum would be useful there, the values have gaps; rather an errno.h like implementation makes sense there.
2. the LED current code (in some non-ARM) places has LED types (BOOT, ...) and LED modes (OFF, BLINK, ON). That is totally different and quite useless for seven segment and simple LCDisplays.
Best Regards, Reinhard
