- 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
- from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this
- file.
- ---------------------------
- What: Remove CONFIG_SYS_ENABLE_PADS_ALL and CONFIG_SYS_CLOCKS_ENABLE_ALL
- When: Release v2013.07
- Why: When set these options enable "all" of the pads and clocks found
- on OMAP4/5 platforms, so that the Linux Kernel does not have to.
- It has been agreed that this goes against the U-Boot design
- philosophy and since f3f98bb0 we have not enabled more than is
- used in U-Boot. The kernel has been updating drivers to enable
- rather than assume pads/clocks have been enabled already. Our
- expectation is that by v2013.07 a suitable kernel shall exist that
- does not need these options set for a reasonable I/O set to function.
- Who: Tom Rini <trini@ti.com> and Sricharan R <r.sricharan@ti.com>
- ---------------------------
- 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: Andy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> and driver maintainers
- ---------------------------
- What: GPL cleanup
- When: August 2009
- Why: Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot
- source code that are either missing a valid GPL license
- header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the
- GPL.
- Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree.
- See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files
- for an old and probably incomplete list of such files.
- Who: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> and board maintainers
