<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello All,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does anyone know the concept (if any) behind
the lib_xxx directories and the board.c file ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Although lib__xxx would indicate a generic/common
set of cpu architecture specific functions, the board.c file actually contains
board related initialization functions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Wouldn't these functions better live in the board
specific directories ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There is a long text in board.c explaining that now
there is an array of functions to be called during startup/initialization, but
the functions included are still listed in board.c - so any board specific
function would (still) have to be selected using ifdef's.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now it seems I need to change the existing board.c
file for the architecture I'm dealing with (microblaze), which means I
could potentially break the existing (suzaku) code that's already
there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also does anyone have a list of initialization
functions (I won't get all by grepping for *_init ).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Regards,</FONT></DIV>
