Thanks Jean for bringing up old stuff :-), and nice to see the first (workable) MIPS port of barebox this time, Antony.
Is it runnable at all?
Not at all, unfortunately.
I think, that Shinya's concepts can be used in the future, but they are very complex for initial mips support. IMHO, the Shinya's code is redundant (> 200K ) --- initial support must be as small as possible.
I didn't care about code size, complexity, workable or not (ok, this is important) when I was working on it. What did care about is its boot design.Having a glance at your head.S, compute_offset part looks good. That's a part of what I have in mind, and implemented as ADR macro in my prototype. I'll write a lot more some other day. _______________________________________________ barebox mailing list barebox@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/barebox
