I have a patch for the support of a generic MMC driver for kirkwood Soc. I want to make some few more fix to have sheevaplugs been updated also.
sounds great.
Here is the complete changelog of my patch :
- Add Marvell SDIO/MMC driver for Kirkwood SoC
- Add SDIO/MMC support for Sheevaplug board
- Fix env address for Sheevaplug board
- Fix mtdparts for Sheevaplug board
- Fix mtdids for Sheevaplug board
- Add default mtdparts for Sheevaplug board
- Add default mtdids for Sheevaplug board
- Add SATA support for Sheevaplug board
But all these changes are split into atomic patches, aren't they?
Is there any guide to help for making cumulative patch, and for using git diff to make some local branch ?
Well, read http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches and if I got your question right you should read http://git-scm.com/book first.
I need, I suppose, to make patch for each subject and segment my diff into few proposal ?
- MMC Driver
- MMC support
- Fix env
...
Is there any guide for proposing patch to be mainline supported into uboot ?
