- 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: 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: boards with xxx_config targets in top level Makefile
- When: Release v2012.03
- Why: We have a boards.cfg file which the vast majority of boards have
- converted over to. 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).
- 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 <vapier@gentoo.org>
- ---------------------------
- 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
