I've only finished reviewing the first 2 patches today. Some general comments regarding to this patch set: - Some of my previous comments against v1/v2 series are not completely addressed. I still see them in this v3. - There are building warnings of qemu with this patch - There are lots of coding convention issues here and there like 80 cols. Can you please make sure before you submit the patch, run patman or checkpatch.pl to make sure it is in a good shape? > Changes from v2: > - Fixes issues with using MMCONFIG for q35. > - Fixes various entries in ACPI tables that OS was not able to parse. > > Changes from v1: > - Dynamic generation of AML code for DSDT table. > -Reading PCI registers for FADT table. > -Incorporated review comments. > Regards, Bin _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
