The following is a list of files and features that are going to be removed from the U-Boot source tree. Every entry should contain what exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed, and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this file. --------------------------- What: Remove unused CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START/END When: Release v2013.10 Why: As the 'mtest' command is no longer default, a number of platforms have not opted to turn the command back on and thus provide unused defines (which are likely to be propogated to new platforms from copy/paste). Remove these defines when unused. Who: Tom Rini --------------------------- What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code When: undetermined Why: We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and all old drivers should get converted to use it. Who: Andy Fleming and driver maintainers --------------------------- What: GPL cleanup When: August 2009 Why: Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot source code that are either missing a valid GPL license header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the GPL. Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree. See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files for an old and probably incomplete list of such files. Who: Wolfgang Denk and board maintainers
