[Buildroot] Wandboard Solo/Dual/Quad support

[Sergio Prado]

Hello all,

I'm working on the config files for the wandboard solo, dual and quad, and
I have a few questions:

1. Are you guys OK with this organization?

$ ls configs/wandboard*
configs/wandboard_solo_defconfig
configs/wandboard_dual_defconfig
configs/wandboard_quad_defconfig

$ tree board/wandboard/
board/wandboard/
??? dual
?   ??? readme.txt
?   ??? uboot-env.txt
??? genimage.cfg
??? post-image.sh
??? quad
?   ??? readme.txt
?   ??? uboot-env.txt
??? solo
    ??? readme.txt
    ??? uboot-env.txt

2. After renaming wandboard_defconfig to wandboard_solo_defconfig, I will
bump its u-boot and kernel version. Should I send you two separate patches
(renaming and then bumping versions) or just one patch including both
changes?

Best regards,

Is there a reason to have 3 separate defconfigs? In the Linux kernel, a
single configuration can support all three variants, and it seems to be
the case in U-Boot as well:

  ./configs/wandboard_defconfig

Thanks!

Thomas

Dear Thomas,

Yes, you are right.

I was bumping to the 2015.04 version of U-Boot from the official Freescale
repository (git://github.com/Freescale/u-boot-fslc.git) that has 3 separate
defconfigs.

But I can see that since U-Boot mainline version 2015.07, SPL is used and
we have only one defconfig. So I will bump to this version.

Thanks!
