- Patch by Steven Scholz, 25 Oct 2004:
- Introducing CONFIG_BOARD_PRE_RESET and board_pre_reset() to allow code to be executed before actually rebooting
any new opinions on this topic?
No.
[Actually I think that it might make sense to perform certain cleanup operations in case of an orderly reboot; on the other hand the reboot code _must_not_ depend on such cleanup. In your case there seems to be such a dependency. I'd rather see that you fix the reset code first, and then (if there is still need for it) we might allow for pre-reset cleanup functions.]
