1The following is a list of files and features that are going to be 2removed from the U-Boot source tree. Every entry should contain what 3exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed, 4and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed 5from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this 6file. 7 8--------------------------- 9 10What: Remove CONFIG_SYS_ENABLE_PADS_ALL and CONFIG_SYS_CLOCKS_ENABLE_ALL 11When: Release v2013.07 12 13Why: When set these options enable "all" of the pads and clocks found 14 on OMAP4/5 platforms, so that the Linux Kernel does not have to. 15 It has been agreed that this goes against the U-Boot design 16 philosophy and since f3f98bb0 we have not enabled more than is 17 used in U-Boot. The kernel has been updating drivers to enable 18 rather than assume pads/clocks have been enabled already. Our 19 expectation is that by v2013.07 a suitable kernel shall exist that 20 does not need these options set for a reasonable I/O set to function. 21 22Who: Tom Rini <trini@ti.com> and Sricharan R <r.sricharan@ti.com> 23 24--------------------------- 25 26What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code 27When: undetermined 28 29Why: We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY 30 drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and 31 all old drivers should get converted to use it. 32 33Who: Andy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> and driver maintainers 34 35--------------------------- 36 37What: GPL cleanup 38When: August 2009 39Why: Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot 40 source code that are either missing a valid GPL license 41 header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the 42 GPL. 43 Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree. 44 See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files 45 for an old and probably incomplete list of such files. 46 47Who: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> and board maintainers 48
