What do you need?
One of the big problems that I have, I don't know how the u-boot mechanism is support to work. What components (such as the pmufw) need to be present, where the place the device tree, how it should be compiled, and how the disk image needs to be constructed. This is all pretty fundamental to trying to support this workflow. If we (collectively, thanks to the others who also offered to help) can write up how this should be configured and working that would give me a basis to start doing testing. The next step of course is actually having the machine configuration(s). > This might also pave the way for moving our SOM/board support into > meta-xilinx-contrib, so it's beneficial for both of us. Yes, one thing we've discussed is what to do with the meta-xilinx-contrib. Much of the stuff was added without us really knowing what it is, who to contact or how to make sure it's still working. I really would like to keep the contrib layer, but we're going to have to sort out some of the issues around that. I'm open to suggestions how best to enable these machines, while keeping them in a state where they are useful to people long-term. When I've done some of this in the past, we had setup a requirement that each contributed machine required a named contact, some basic documentation on what they were intended to be used for, etc. The only thing the contact would be required to do is to occasionally answer questions, and probably verify that it's still functional.
