[U-Boot] [ANN] U-Boot v2018.07 released

[Tom Rini]

Hey all,

It's release day, and here we are doing the release.  It's live on git
and FTP and ACD (along with the PGP sig file).

Looking over the release email for v2018.05, I see I had a lot to say
then.  This time?  Not quite so much.  On the ARM side of things, we
have the framework in, and in some cases, it is now enabled, what
portion of the "Spectre" work-arounds.  Since dealing with the issues
entirely is a system-level problem and not just "whack some bits once
and you're good" I want to stress that to deal with the issue entirely
you're going to need more than just these changes enabled.

Next, the deadline for migration to CONFIG_BLK was supposed to be
v2018.05, but we didn't enforce it.  I'd really like to enforce this for
the v2018.09 release, and at least right now the only big hang-up is
USB.  That's a pretty big hang-up, but I am hopeful.

Finally, DM_SPI migration has a deadline of also v2018.09 and I'd like
to see if we can stick to it.

Thanks all!

Can you add all the @baylibre.com e-mails under the BayLibre employer section ?

It's a clone of Jonathan Corbet's gitdm script; the U-Boot
configuration can be found at [1].

looks good. I expect there was consideration to keep these config files
out of the main repo.

Thanks,

I can't remember clearly. I think there was.

I have no real preferences.

Full circle, nice.

So has anybody any suggestions what to do?

The problem I see is that we need yet another non-standard tool
(gitdm) which AFAICT is not part of the standard distros. Including
this into U-Boot seems not attractive to me; keeping it outside (as
I'm doing it now) means you need the config files outside the U-Boot
tree as well.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

OK, sorry, let me try and be smarter.  Can we "just" store the gitdm
config file in U-Boot proper?  Would that be OK with you if we can?

Having a dependency on non standard tool has lower priority for me
compare to keeping track on configs together with u-boot source.
But that's just my opinion.

Of course we can do that (actually it's two files,
"u-boot-config/aliases" and "u-boot-config/domain-map").

But would that really be useful?  Configuration files for some
out-of-tree, non-standard tool?

I don't think this is a good idea, but if you like, we can do this.

Best regards,

and gitdm.config right? (not sure if that sample-config/filetypes.txt is
used)

Actually it's even more involved.  There are also patches to
database.py and gitdm.config ...

Ah, and now I see the other details.  Yes, if there's stuff out of tree
in "gitdm" that would be needed to use it here, then no, it doesn't make
sense to try and put the config files under doc/ or something in U-Boot
proper.  But perhaps we need a link off the ReleaseCycle page to point
at the copy of gitdm you use?  Thanks!
