pci: sandbox: Support dynamically binding device driver

2018-08-08T11:49:31+00:00

At present all emulated sandbox pci devices must be present in the
device tree in order to be used. The real world pci uclass driver
supports pci device driver matching, and we should add such support
on sandbox too.

SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style

2018-05-07T13:34:12+00:00

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

dtoc: Rename the phandle struct

2017-09-15T11:27:47+00:00

Rather than naming the phandle struct according to the number of cells it
uses (e.g. struct phandle_2_cell) name it according to the number of
arguments it has (e.g. struct phandle_1_arg). This is a more intuitive
naming.

dm: Add migration plan for CONFIG_BLK

2017-09-04T08:10:06+00:00

The CONFIG_BLK conversion involves quite invasive changes in the U-Boot
code, with #ifdefs and different code paths. We should try to move over to
this soon so we can drop the old code.

Set a deadline of 9 months for this work, rounded up to the next release.

dtoc: Support multiple compatible strings in a node

2017-07-11T16:08:19+00:00

Sometimes a node will have multiple compatible strings. Drivers may use
one or the other so the best approach seems to be to #define them to be
equivalent.

Update dtoc to support this.
