Hi Bruce, The changes are against 3.14 kernel on standard/base branch. There are more patches need to be applied for booting the kernel on Octeon3. We are working on them and will be submitting in the upcoming weeks.
With these patches, we are targeting the CN78xx but currently we are just ensuring that the support for previous simulators (like CN56xx, CN68xx) are not broken while submitting.

Hi Abhishek, The changes all look sane to me (in particular the upstream backports are easy to integrate). But the big question is .. what linux-yocto variant is this for ? We have a few choices: 3.10, 3.14 or 3.17 at the moment. I could figure it out by seeing where your upstream commits land in the kernel history, but I'd rather ask and see your response. And finally, can you elaborate on a particular OcteonIII board that is known to work with this series applied ?
