there is a device name PI, the CPU is Ingenic 4740 [1], now we have the u-boot-1.1.6 patch.[2]
I want the u-boot Integrate with 'upstream' what am I got do. just give some advice or step.
Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/CodingStyle and http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches .
We appreciate if you submit your patches following the above guidelines - but you got to spend a lot of work before being able to do that. U-Boot 1.1.6 is extremely old, so you must rebase your code first against current top of tree.
Thanks Wolfgang. Sorry for so later to reply your email. those weeks I follow the CodingStyle, and also merge ingenic u-boot to V2009.06.
for now it can not boot the kernel. but it's boot the device and output something from the serial console.
there is two branch in my git[2]. [xiangfu] this one , I try to merge with the upstream. [u-boot] is the upstream.
I use "git diff u-boot..xiangfu > ~/pi_project.patch" to generate the patch[1].
what am I got do next? thanks.

No. Please use git-format-patch to create patches.
Make sure to split your changes lgically into commits - the commits should be small and orthogonal to each other. Please see http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
