[U-Boot] A few things for the release?
Hi,
I have a few more series that I hope will go in this time.
1. I think bootstage is ready
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/sjg/bootstage/
2. The generic board init series needs some updates to create asm/sections.h for each architecture. This changes quite a few patches, plus there is one that I can drop since Mike fixed s520_timer already. So I will resend the whole series today. The is enabled only by a config option.
3. For generic relocation, there is the issue of creating lib/membasic.c (which is safe I think, but changes things for everyone) versus using -ffunction-sections and possibly breaking some boards. The latter solution is probably preferred in the long term, but I'm not sure if Albert is keep on this happening now. See here for details:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/142216/
Albert, can you please take a look?
4. I have created a bundle for the ARM link-script series as it is today:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/sjg/lds/
Albert you had some comments, the latest of which I answered here:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/142254/

Using the nice subject ;)
5. I'm still hoping that we could get

into 2012.0{3,4}.

Yes, I'm not sure. I think we have a new network maintainer now...

Uh, great! Many thanks! :)
Do you plan to send a u-boot-net pull request to get this into 2012.04?
Many thanks again and best regards

Do you have any comments on 3 and 4 below please? Otherwise lds can perhaps go in as it in. For generic reloc I will issue a new series which tidies up SPL a bit if there are no further comments, but keeping the membasic.c approach for now.

For bootstage I still have to sort out the timer function. The current patch is here, but I think I will change it to put the timer function into bootstage.c instead of time.c:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/147745/
One thing I forgot to ask about is patman - the patch submission script, now at v4. Do you want this in U-Boot at least for now?
The discussion is here:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/136136/
and the README in the patch has instructions.
