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 unused CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_START/END 11When: Release v2013.10 12 13Why: As the 'mtest' command is no longer default, a number of platforms 14 have not opted to turn the command back on and thus provide unused 15 defines (which are likely to be propagated to new platforms from 16 copy/paste). Remove these defines when unused. 17 18Who: Tom Rini <trini@ti.com> 19 20--------------------------- 21 22What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code 23When: undetermined 24 25Why: We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY 26 drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and 27 all old drivers should get converted to use it. 28 29Who: Andy Fleming <afleming@gmail.com> and driver maintainers 30 31--------------------------- 32 33What: GPL cleanup 34When: August 2009 35Why: Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot 36 source code that are either missing a valid GPL license 37 header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the 38 GPL. 39 Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree. 40 See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files 41 for an old and probably incomplete list of such files. 42 43Who: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> and board maintainers 44
