In chatting w/Wolfgang on IRC he felt that we should maintain the highlevel picking a board implies ARCH and other settings.
However this seems like a lot of boards in one list.. To get a rough order of magnitude MAKEALL is ~880 lines. How can we reduce this to make it a bit more manageable?
I'd arrange them by vendor. The vendor kconfig variable doesn't need to be used in code generation.
Assuming boards/ is grouped by vendor today:
$ ls -1 board/ | wc -l 269
still seems like a long list.
Everyone will know the vendor of their board. You could alphabetize and break the list into groups. I think there are some entries in board/ that should be combined and moved into vendor subdirs.
I believe Kconfig is flexible enough you could have two ways of selecting a board. By arch/cpu or by vendor.
