Thanks, and thanks for your work on U-Boot improvements in general over the last few years! I've been out of the development loop, but it's neat to see the improvements you've been shepherding. > However, many of the options in these boards define I2C addresses, > which these days should be done with driver model / device tree. >=20 > I wonder if you have any interest in converting these boards as part > of ongoing work? I definitely have interest, but am iffy on the time:) =C2=A0From what I understand PowerPC has been pretty tardy on moving to the driver model / device tree, and no PowerPC board uses the device tree control at this point. To make sure I understand the end goal, you're asking about defining CONFIG_OF_CONTROL for the XPedite boards? This would primarily entail getting CONFIG_OF_CONTROL working, at which point the driver model should "just work"? Let me know if I'm missing the high level picture. Regards, Peter
