[U-Boot-Users] ColdFire: MCF52x2 update

[Liew Tsi Chung-r5aahp]

Stefan,

	There are 17 patches and over 234KB. I kept sending over 40KB
limit. Can you pull from our git at http://opensource.freescale.com/git
? The branch will name as mcf52x2.

	Sorry for the trouble. Thanks!

Regards,
TsiChung

Sorry, patches have to be submitted over the mailing list for review.

Best regards,

Hmmm. I'm having trouble locating your branch "mcf52x2". In the 
u-boot-coldfire repository at the Freescale page I can only see:

13 days ago	u-boot-5329-early
5 weeks ago	master

What am I missing? I would really like to pull from your git repo instead of 
applying all the patches from the mails.

A few notes right now:

o Please make sure not to indent with spaces like in the patch 0001-xxx:

+#if defined(CONFIG_M5249) || defined(CONFIG_M5253)
+        u16 tmr;                /* 0x00 Mode register */
+        u16 res1;               /* 0x02 */

o Please don't use too long lines in your commit messages

o I merged the u-boot-coldfire custodian repository today with
  Wolfgangs master repository. So now the new CONFIG_CMD_
  structure is in place. All CFG_CMD_xxx are not available
  anymore!
  -> Please update your new board config files accordingly
     (M5329EVB and new ones)
  -> Please update driver (board/freescale/m5329evb/mii.c,
     board/freescale/m5329evb/nand.c, common/cmd_bdinfo.c,
     drivers/net/mcffec.c, rtc/mcfrtc.c
  Please grep through your repo and replace all CFG_CMD_xxx
  instances with the correct CONFIG_CMD_xxx alternatives.

Please rebase your repository against the new updated u-boot-coldfire 
repository and make the CFG_CMD_xxx changes I mentioned above. Hopefully we 
can still get this done in this merge window.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Stefan

[U-Boot-Users] ColdFire merge? (was: MCF52x2 update)

[w.wegner at astro-kom.de]

Hi Coldfire experts,

just a question:

how about my cache patch for SDRAM size other than 16MB on MCF532x?

I did not hear anything about it, not even a "go away, your patch format is wrong!". ;-)

In case the MCF532x stuff is merged into mainline now, I think this really should
go in or at least be commented on.

Personally I would also like to have support for CFG_MONITOR_IS_IN_RAM,
but if this is not wanted anyways, I do not have to take the time to prepare a patch...

Thank you and best regards,
Wolfgang

[U-Boot-Users] ColdFire custodian change?

[Stefan Roese]

Hi TsiChung,

we already talked about it in private mail, but I would like to switch this to 
the list, so that the community can follow (and comment) this thread. You are 
very active in ColdFire U-Boot development and seem to be much better suited 
to do this custodian job for this platform than I am right now.

So again my question to you: Are you willing to become the new ColdFire U-Boot 
custodian? Please let me know if you have any questions about this. I would 
welcome a "yes" very much. ;)

Best regards,
Stefan

[U-Boot-Users] ColdFire custodian change?

[Liew Tsi Chung-r5aahp]

Stefan,

	Before answering your question, I would like to know more about becoming a ColdFire U-boot custodian. What are the job duties as a U-boot custodian other than maintaining, updating and merging the u-boot source from/to main branch? Do I need a user account at Denx?

	Thanks!

Regards,
TsiChung

That's it. This includes reviewing ColdFire related patches of course. And 
making sure that everything in your custodian repository is according to the 
U-Boot standards (coding style etc.). You can of course always ask, if you 
are unsure or have any questions. Please take a loot at this page too:

> Do I need a user account at Denx? 

You just need to send us your ssh public key, so that we can give you write 
access to the ColdFire custodian repository.

Best regards,
Stefan

Stefan,

	We have one candidate is better suit for ColdFire custodian, and his name is John Rigby. He will be transition to take the ColdFire custodian responsibilites in this coming early October. For now, I can temporary take the responsibilites until then. Is this proposal okay with you and Wolfgang?

May I ask why this is the case? I have a few mails from John, but most of the 
CodFire stuff sent to the list was done by yourself.

Stefan
