The problem we have with mkimage, unlike DTC at the moment, is that it _is_ used on other architectures. There's already a mkuboot.sh script, which calls mkimage, in scripts/ right now. Adding mkimage to arch/powerpc only seems pretty wrong. So if mkimage is going to be put in-kernel, I'd rather it be in a more generic place. Arguably, dtc should go there as well seeing as how microblaze could probably use it too. josh _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
