Hi All!


For several years, my organization has built and maintained boards SPARCH-architecture processors (specifically Gaisler's implementation of the LEON3), and we have depended on u-boot as our primary bootloader.  But when attempting to update u-boot this morning, we were disappointed to find that the SPARC support was completely removed last March with commits:


936478e797a87bcd4e002bf70430b6f58584b155

54f302f1197a490c2c4e3564c698ecd090d5013b


What was the reasoning for completely removing support for SPARC?  What will it take to get it back in?


Thanks!
