Hi,

It looks like something changed in the way to find all the bits and
pieces to patch/build the Denx PPC/ipipe/xenomai combo.

Looking here:
http://git.xenomai.org/?p=xenomai-head.git;a=blob;f=ksrc/arch/powerpc/patches/README;h=010a86ecabce19212a8eaa1e0aaf8dc43b4805f3;hb=master

I read:

>>>

from Linux v2.6.22 to v2.6.32
		~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

>>From git://www.denx.de/git/linux-2.6-denx.git

Patch release			Commit #
----------------------------	----------------------------------------
2.6.22-DENX-*/powerpc		3e833ffb06a4ce14f2680a0afe9abd5342188e17
...
2.6.32.3-DENX-*/powerpc		224f363857f05ab44dab3441112965f0a7966788

		from Linux v2.6.20 to v2.6.21
		from Linux v2.6.33 onward
		~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

>>From ftp://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.kernel.org/linux/kernel/v2.6/

	All patches are based on mainline kernel releases.

<<<

Does this mean, that the patches are not anymore against the DENX git
repository, but against mainline?

What I would do up to now is to find in the denx git repository the
corresponding commit or similar;)

There seems to be an 2.6.33 ipipe patch:

http://git.xenomai.org/?p=xenomai-head.git;a=blob;f=ksrc/arch/powerpc/patches/adeos-ipipe-2.6.33-powerpc-2.9-00.patch;h=7b84ba91606e7873227ef70d99aa077362248f4a;hb=master

So I would apply this on:
http://git.denx.de/?p=linux-2.6-denx.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/DENX-v2.6.33-stable

Or should I use
http://git.denx.de/?p=ipipe-2.6.git;a=summary

Or something completely different?

With

http://git.xenomai.org/?p=xenomai-head.git;a=summary

I'm confused what's the recommended way to get the latest and greatest
ipipe/kernel/xenomai combination based on a DENX ppc kernel tree.

Please advise.

Regards,

Robert
