Apparently it is, which is the answer I was looking for. Surely it is. The last thing I tried was the i.mx deviation which is very much based on what's in the tree. It didn't work out without some bits of hackery and I never got it straight enough to try upstreaming. But nevertheless, IMO XIP is not dead and is not going to be in the closest future. ~Vitaly -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
