Hi Wolfgang,

The GPBR is optional in my code. I just use it because it's the nicest
solution for me over the following options :
I haven't seen your code yet, so I may misunderstand what you are actually referring to, but from what it sounds I think that should not be optional, but strictly separate from the DFU code.
It is separate or I will make sure it is when I post it.
Do you mean separate patches to add for example the sam9g45 USB controller and another patch to add DFU and another one to add my board ?
Yes.
OK.
It does make sense to that, I just wonder how to generate those patches...... I know which files I want to include in separate patches, but how do I do that ?
Normally you do this when developing the code.
Than I just check out a new u-boot-usb and port my code in there in order of the patches. It sounds not very difficult and at least makes sure I have several patches created the way it should.
If you already have alltogehter as a huge pile of a mess, then you will have to go thtrough splitting this up. Either completely manually (ouch...) or by using git's interactive capabilities - for example, "git add --interactive" can be used to select even single lines from hunks of changes into the next commit.
Yes, this is a painful work, but it needs to be done to make your code acceptable for mainline.
Understood. I will go for the manual way as I didn't do much changes to the existing u- boot code anyway. It's a fairly clean implementation so I should be finished with in a couple of hours I think.
I'll post the items this weekend.
Thanks for all the help so far, Marcel
