[U-Boot] query about USB gadget framework
Hi,
I'm curious what are the current plans for merging the USB gadget framework [1] into mainline tree? Looks like there were attempts [2] to do so but I failed to figure out why it was not actually merged. Or was it dropped at some point later? Interesting why.
Thanks, Dmitry

Hi Dmitry,

You should address this question to the USB custodian Remy Bohmer (I put him on CC).

Well this is strange. From the link you provide, it seems like Wolfgang applied that to mainline, but I also cannot find any trace here of the commits of the pull-request.
Around the time in question, I can only find this commit:
commit f97db54d7e773a32100247ee002686b6a014a87d Merge: 0c24dec faa14ba Author: Wolfgang Denk wd@denx.de Date: Tue Jun 9 22:53:03 2009 +0200
Merge branch 'master' of git://git.denx.de/u-boot-usb
Whereas Remy asked Wolfgang to pull the next branch. Maybe this was a misunderstanding and nobody (except you) found out....
Remy, what do you think?
Cheers Detlev

It has been reverted quite fast after merging into mainline, since it touched some ARM code that conflicted with other work in progress at that time. I planned to push it back in later but did not had the time to do it properly, and I have to say that there were not many requests last year to move it forward ;-)
The current status of the CDC branch in the u-boot-usb tree is that it is fully operational to provide CDC-ECM support (ethernet-over-USB) on Atmel at91based cores, but it need to be worked up for mainline integration.

nope, it was just reverted...
Remy, what do you think?
I do not expect to have some time for it soon, so if you want to work it up for mainline inclusion, go ahead!
Kind regards,
Remy
