There are some boards where it's not currently possible to detect all board information at runtime, therefore I introduced a new column called "options" to boards.cfg .
This column can contain multiple options, separated by comma [,] . This column is case sensitive. In case there's a simple options like 256M_U_BOOT, it's plain expanded to "#define CONFIG_256M_U_BOOT" in config.h . In case there's an assignment, like "ram=8192", it's expanded to "#define CONFIG_RAM 8192" in config.h . There can also be multiple such options, then each is expanded to separate "#define CONFIG_xyz" statement.
I don't understand what you mean by "is case sensitive" when in the end you seem to convert everything to upper case?
I would not make any statement about case sensistivity and copy the settings unchanged. It is up to the user to provide valid (upper case) macro names, and it leaves the option to deviate and use locer case identifiers in case this should ever be needed for some special purpose. Also, it makes the code simpler.
And, as Mike pointed out, please reuse the "-y" option.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
