I don't know when the ZFS port was prepared, but please keep in mind that in last 1-2 years u-boot was massively reworked: - Kconfig migration from <include/configs*.> - all new options shall go to Kconfig - Device Model support - most notably the F2FS would require working on top of "block device" layer, - SPL/TPL rework > > Regards, > Juraj Vijtiuk > _______________________________________________ > U-Boot mailing list > U-Boot@lists.denx.de > https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot Best regards, Lukasz Majewski -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, Managing Director: Wolfgang Denk HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-59 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: lu...@denx.de
