Typos aside, this is past the M3 deadline but RC2 is running late, is there
a good reason to have the upgrade in?

Also what boards has it been tested on?  As it's from Otavio I presume the
Freescale boards have been tested.  Denys, have you tested this version on
your boards?

We are using it internally and we will upgrade meta-freescale for this
release as well. I believe it would be great to upgrade this as U-Boot
bieng up to date allows for a more up to date reference code.

If there is any failure in the automated tests I can try to iron them
out but I believe it should be fine.

Ross,

I haven't personally tested 2017.03 yet, as we are staying on 2017.01 for a 
bit longer...

It that just because you've stabilised, or is there something in .03 that
you're concerned about?

No, I'm not aware of any major issues with .03, although haven't done much 
testing with it due to pending internal release with .01 - the timing is 
rather unfortunate...

Re: [PATCH] u-boot: Update to 2017.03 release

[Philip Balister]

Some background is needed ....

Marex sent in the 2017.01 update after discussions in irc about timing
of u-boot releases and the YP release schedule. The 2017.03 release
would happen after oe-core passed the feature freeze. So, at the time
people felt the release should have 2017.01.

People consuming the u-boot recipe via a bbappends have been using
2017.01 for their bsp's. Changing at this time is potentially a pain
point, and has some technical risk on the release schedule.

On the other hand, people working to get their code upstream, might be
frustrated having to wait until fall to use a current u-boot release.

Should we go ahead and add the 2017.03 recipe and use DEFAULT_PREFERENCE
to turn it off?

Also, this would be a good time to determine who the maintainers of the
recipes are.

Philip

This raises a very valid point which is what any maintainers file is
and what it is not.

The one that exists in meta-yocto today has a very specific meaning. I
know there is discussion about moving it to OE-Core however if we do so
I want to by *really* *really* clear about what being listed there
means and does not mean.

As things stand right now, there is no requirement or advice in any of
our guides to cc "maintainers". People struggle to send patches as it
is and giving them more hoops to jump through doesn't seem like a
brilliant idea to me. I know we can create a file with all kinds of
path matching for files people care/don't care about but I worry this
will descend into complicated scripts and people still getting upset
when they were cc'd needlessly or weren't cc'd etc.

I also quite strongly dislike the "I own X, so only I can change it"
type view, to be the maintainers are people who help look after
specific areas in the absence of anyone else and help review patches
that come in. They certainly get significant influence on things but
the price for that is they also have to help fix issues and figure out
ways of helping others with issues in that area.

So please think very carefully about what you want this "maintainers"
file to be/not be as I worry its a huge can of worms we once tried in
OE before...

Cheers,

Richard

Well, this reminds me of numerous discussions we've had in the past at several 
OEDEMs and OEDAMs about maintainers file and requirements/responsibilities it 
carries - unfortunately we never been able to resolve it one way or another. I 
guess we'll try finalizing it again with the renewed effort now...


As of u-boot - wasn't trying to claim ownership at all. In the past we've had 
a number of updates from TI, as it's a bootloader of choice for our platforms. 
Somehow I got assigned as a maintainer for the corresponding recipes. I know 
Otavio is also responsible for some changes there, from his involvement with 
Freescale. And at OEDEM last fall, I had a good conversation with Marek about 
u-boot recipes, we've discussed restructuring and re-versioning plans and 
since then he's copying me on his updates - I'm trying to review and/or test 
his changes as much as I can. That's all to it.

I see. I'm all for updating to 2017.03 , since it fixes the OMAP serial
bug too :)

I've got a machine under development that boots from the 2013.01 recipe
and a bbappend. I don't think it is a problem moving to .03, but I don't
know. I'm not sure how many other BSP's have done the same.

Meanwhile, I understand the desire of others who have work upstreamed in
u-boot they like to use with the next release.

How many u-boot releases are there a year? How do they line up with YP
releases? Should we carry two u-boot versions, similar to what happens
with the kernel?

If it is a full mainline machine it should be smooth; otherwise
sending the patch to enable it in mainline is the best long term
solution. Keeping a patch on top a recipe is a decision which ends
with the maintenance burden at the developer adding the patch.

External layers should not delay the additions or upgrades of recipes
of OE-Core. If maintenance is a concern, upstreaming is the best
choice or fork the U-Boot and keep the fork with an independent cycle.

And it has been a way to endorse the upstreaming effort to reduce the
maintenance work.

Every two months now. I see no reason to carry two versions. OE-Core
provides the basis and every BSP layers can maintain their own
versions.

Agreed, fwiw.  It's late and u-boot is quite important: cherry-pick the
patch for Pyro and master can upgrade once it has branched.
