Hi All,
Here is a patch-set adding sun4i support on top of Ian's recent 1st attempt to get sun7i upstream patch-set.
Note I've had to drop the raising of the cpu core clock, without matching axp209 changes this causes issues on sun4i.
Yes, I was going to drop this from the base series based on the feedback so far.
I've been thinking about how to best move forward with this patch-set, and I think it would be best to first complete the job of splitting up what we've in u-boot-sunxi now (at least most of it), keeping this based on v2014.01 so that we can easily diff.
I was actually planning to ask if we could merge up to at least v2014.04-rc2, in general it is easier to upstream the closer we are starting from.
In particular between v2014.01 and v2014.04.rc the following are going to be relevant for upstreaming: * Switch to Kbuild has made the Makefile stuff very different * Based on Wens' feedback it looked like there are changes to the designware stuff upstream which will need integrating * The generic distro stuff which Dennis asked for isn't in v2014.01 AFAIK.
The merge up doesn't seem too bad, I've got it mostly done locally. Not sure what the best way to send it out is -- probably as a git pull request?
I've also got a small series which addresses the initial upstream review feedback in sunxi.git which I hope to send out soon.
We can even paralellize things. I can stick with Ian's v1 patchset for now, adding patches on top adding what is missing in piecemeal patches, and Ian can start working on making his initial series ready to go upstream.
I'd prefer this approach to tacking your patches onto the end of my series and managing them myself.
Ian.
