Boards that still manually run mkconfig in the - top level Makefile are either dead, or the maintainer doesn't care, - or they are doing something weird/wrong that should be fixed in a - different way, or they need to extend boards.cfg syntax (unlikely). +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. - In any case, if no one cares about these boards to figure out how - to make boards.cfg work, then we'll just punt them. - -Who: Mike Frysinger +Who: Tom Rini --------------------------- -What: CONFIG_NET_MULTI option -When: Release 2009-11 - -Why: U-boot currently implements two network driver APIs. New drivers with - the older-style implementation have not been accepted for a while, and - this parallel system makes the code confusing and hard to augment. +What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code +When: undetermined - All existing in-tree boards will be converted to use CONFIG_NET_MULTI - over the span of two releases (2009-07 and 2009-09). - In the 2009-11 release, all code that is compiled when CONFIG_NET_MULTI - is not set will be removed, and all references to CONFIG_NET_MULTI - will be removed, effectively making it the only API. This should - provide ample time for out-of-tree users to adjust, and for tools on - all architectures to be made to work with weak functions. +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: Ben Warren +Who: Andy Fleming and driver maintainers ---------------------------
