Virtex 5 (and V4) are not yet in their end of life. The plan is to re-factor the code for this platform or just drop all the support? There are also yocto layers that support ml507 and ml405 http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-xilinx-community/tree/conf/machine The xilinx git tree still supports this boards, will you also remove support there?

All support from tools was already removed. There is no testing on it done for a long time that's why this platform is obsolete from my point of view. > The plan is to re-factor the code for this platform or just drop all > the support? Platform needs to be moved to generic board support and none from xilinx will do it. If you want to invest your time and support these boards feel free to do it but from my perspective we should just remove it because it is just old and make no sense to waste our time on it. > There are also yocto layers that support ml507 and ml405 > http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-xilinx-community/tree/conf/machine I am not yocto guy but from cgit it looks like that it is pretty old too. ppc support 4 years ago, ml507 2 years ago. > The xilinx git tree still supports this boards, will you also remove > support there? I am following mainline. It means removing board in mainline is resulting removing the board in xilinx trees. Thanks, Michal ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

So far it has build with no warnings for: ml507 ml507_flash xilinx-ppc440-generic v5fx30teval and I have run it on the ml507 with no issues (is the only hw I have with me this week, but it is VERY similar to the others): Simply adding CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD to the .h file works perfectly As you can see from here: U-Boot 2015.07-rc1-00091-g698a12bef9e7-dirty (May 12 2015 - 10:14:15) CPU: IBM PowerPC 440x5 VIRTEX5 at 400 MHz (PLB=100 OPB=8 EBC=67) 32 KiB I-Cache 32 KiB D-Cache DRAM: 256 MiB Flash: 32 MiB *** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment U-Boot is up and runnining ml507:/# Regarding xilinx-ppc404 and fx12mm It also builds ok, but I have no access to an fx12mm. Perhaps Georg can give it a try to confirm that this still works. Is there any other test that needs to be done after "porting" them to generic board?

So I was about to send another email but then I dug a bit further and see you're already listed as the maintainer for all of these platforms. So the question comes back to you, is there anything else you'd want to test before declaring things OK? This particular change is indeed easy but there's other stuff that'll need doing soon enough (device model releated things), so please read up on that.
