OK - that was my plan (to address every previous comment)... I was hoping to get "incremental" comments to indicate that I was resolving them acceptably... My plan was to increment v2, v3, vxxx until it was acceptable.

This seems like the better approach. Maybe I misinterpreted the comments related to: +#if defined(CONFIG_CYGNUS) +#include "iproc_nand_cygnus.h" +#elif defined(CONFIG_NS_PLUS) +#include "iproc_nand_ns_plus.h" +#else +#error "Unsupported configuration" +#endif Scott - I thought the you did not like this logic -- now I am thinking you didn't like the "CONFIG_*" names.... I'm guessing that the names should be: CONFIG_SYS_BCM_CYGNUS CONFIG_SYS_BCM_NSPLUS and that they should be added to Kconfig? > > If you want the info to come via the config header, move it to someplace the > config header can properly include. > > -Scott > _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
