[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH 0/3] PPC: Barco SMD 8245/8347E boards

Company: Barco, Security and Monitoring Division Maintainer: Marc Leeman marc.leeman@barco.com
In the following mails, we'll be submitting a number of patches to include support of 8 new Barco Boards:
Barco SVC2 Barco NGS101 Barco H-DGUC Barco NGP101 Barco NGS103 Barco NGS104 Barco NGS105 Barco NGS107
1. remove-barco-uboot.diff Since my first submission to the mailing list was rather naive (the board name was the company name), the first patch will remove the existing barco platform from the source tree (to include it again afterwards).
2. barco_smd_barco8245g1.diff The second patch provides an updated version of what was removed in remove-barco-uboot.diff and adds two extra boards: NGS101 and H-DGUC.
3. barco_smd_barco8347g1.diff The third patch adds support for 6 new boards (SVC2, NGS103, NGS104, NGS105 and NGS107 and NGP101). This board port is a branch off Denx' MPC8349EMDS port, but since a lot of specific stuff got included, we branced it to a seperate platform in order to avoid 'polluting' mpc8349emds.c.
This board re-used/re-creates the board/barco/ dir in which the several board families will be placed (from other divisions/branches). board/<vendor>/<boardport>/
linux-2.6.23/scripts/Lindent has been run on the files and the patches are against u-boot-1.3.1 and were generated with quilt.
As always, comments are welcome, I assume a number of feedback rounds will be needed.

Please don't.
Don't remove + re-add, as this breaks history. Use rename, and use git to create a patch that shows the rename instead of remove/add.
Second, please do only one thing per patch. If you want to add two boards, then submit two separate patches.
This will also help to keep your patches in an acceptable size.
- barco_smd_barco8347g1.diff
The third patch adds support for 6 new boards (SVC2, NGS103, NGS104, NGS105 and NGS107 and NGP101). This board port is a branch off Denx' MPC8349EMDS port, but since a lot of specific stuff got included, we branced it to a seperate platform in order to avoid 'polluting' mpc8349emds.c.
Please separate patches, one per board.
This board re-used/re-creates the board/barco/ dir in which the several board families will be placed (from other divisions/branches). board/<vendor>/<boardport>/
board/barco/ should have been used in the first patch above already.
Also, there are cosing style violations with youyr patches: C++ comments, indentation not by TAB, incorrect comment style, too long lines, code in "#if 0" blocks, etc.
It seems you are using custom flah code even though you have CFI conformant flashes. Please don't - use the CFI driver instead.
Also, I didn't see signed-off-by lines.
Please cleanup and resubmit. [I will reject the submitted patches, because of their size and because of the problems mentioned above.]
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
