when something happens. An example is reading a partition table when a new block device is set up.
It is also common to add weak functions and 'hook' functions to modify how U-Boot works. See for example ft_board_setup() and the like. U-Boot would benefit from a generic mechanism to handle these cases, with the ability to hook into various 'events' in a subsystem-independent and transparent way. This series provides a way to create and dispatch events, with a way of registering a 'spy' which watches for events of different types. This allows 'hook' functions to be created in a generic way. It also includes a script to list the hooks in an image, which is a bit easier to debug than weak functions, as well as an 'event' command to do the same from within U-Boot. These 'static' events can be used to replace hooks like misc_init_f(), for example. Also included is basic support for 'dynamic' events, where a spy can be registered at runtime. The need for this is still being figured out. Enabling events uses a little over 200 bytes of extra code space, on 32-bit machines, a one-off cost.
