Subject: [Buildroot] [pull request] Remove Xtensa architecture and target/ directory
Date: Tue,  4 Sep 2012 16:04:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1346767209.git.thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> (raw)

Hello,

The goal of this branch is to get rid of the Xtensa architecture, and
then get rid of the target/ directory, which becomes mostly useless
once the Xtensa architecture has been removed.

 * Patch 1 removes the Xtensa architecture and all related files and
   references in Buildroot. It allows to review a bunch of special
   stuff here and there which were annoying. The Xtensa architecture
   has been introduced a few years ago in Buildroot, and has never
   been maintained since then, despite being marked deprecated since
   several months.

 * Patch 2 creates a new top-level directory called 'system' to store
   the default device table, the default skeleton, and system-wide
   configuration options.

 * Patch 3 removes an useless file in target/

 * Patch 4 removes the last file from target/, Config.in.arch, by
   splitting it into smaller chunks into a new top-level arch/
   directory.

Note that Patch 1 can be applied independently of the last three
patches, which may require more discussion.

Best regards,

Thomas
