It's not intended to break things - are you saying that every arch is defined to use a different variant of bd_t in these OSes, or are you just referring to PPC? > > If you meant for the unified bd_info to be backwards compatible, it's > missing bi_ip_addr. OK, I see. I saw a commit that punted it, so I punted it. I didn't notice the re-add later. I will put it back.

It's not intended to break things - are you saying that every arch is defined to use a different variant of bd_t in these OSes, or are you just referring to PPC? Any OS that uses bd_info is going to rely on things not changing (other than additions to the end) from whatever was used for that particular platform at the time the OS copied the struct definition. -Scott ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
