The following is a list of files and features that are going to be
removed from the U-Boot source tree. Every entry should contain what
exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed,
-and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed
+and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed
from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this
file.
---------------------------
-What: "autoscr" command
-When: Release 2009-09
+What: Remove unused CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START/END
+When: Release v2013.10
-Why: "autosrc" is an ugly and completely non-standard name.
- The "autoscr" command is deprecated and will be replaced by
+Why: As the 'mtest' command is no longer default, a number of platforms
+ have not opted to turn the command back on and thus provide unused
+ defines (which are likely to be propogated to new platforms from
+ copy/paste). Remove these defines when unused.
- the "source" command as used by other shells such as bash.
+Who: Tom Rini <trini@ti.com>
- Starting with March 2009, both commands will be supported for
- a transition period of 6 months after which "autoscr" will be
- removed. During the transition period existing scripts and
- environment variable names remain untouched for maximum
- compatibiltiy; thse will be changed when support for the
- "autoscr" command get's finally dropped.

+
+What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code
+When: undetermined
+
+Why: We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY
+ drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and
+ all old drivers should get converted to use it.
-Who: Peter Tyser <ptyser@xes-inc.com>
+Who: Andy Fleming <afleming@gmail.com> and driver maintainers

-What: Individual I2C commands
-When: April 2009
-Why: Per the U-Boot README, individual I2C commands such as "imd", "imm",
- "imw", etc are deprecated. The single "i2c" command which is
- currently enabled via CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE contains the same
- functionality as the individual I2C commands. The individual
- I2C commands should be removed as well as any references to
- CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE.

-What: Legacy NAND code
-When: April 2009
-Why: Legacy NAND code is deprecated. Similar functionality exists in
- more recent NAND code ported from the Linux kernel.
