For the record, I do not believe that using git submodules is a good approach
here. We have a small amount of code that we need here, and happily we can
leverage infrastructur e from the Linux Kernel.
Speaking of, this is not the first time we have run into problems deviating
from the workflow of the kernel. The problems of having large number of
warnings, or not stemmed from not just leve raging all of the infrastructure
from the kernel. So related, yes, fixes for these warnings should come in,
and as always, if they're in the upstream kernel dts as well, they should be
fixed there.
So any comments regarding bundling external tools were ignored, even
though the discussion was not finished, great.
Furthermore, there was zero time to review this series, it was just
applied and posted afterward ? What sort of practice is this ?
Yes. I put on my slightly-less-than-benevolent dictator hat today, and
Linus style? :D Management
explained my reasoning. I do feel bad that you're rather unhappy with
the overall situation, but no, I believe this is the right answer.
Now, there's some follow up further re-syncing with the kernel that
could be done (scripts/Makefile.lib/extrawarn can be further re-matched
up with the kernel now, but that would have made a larger delta than
"just migrate to providing the tool").
But seriously, do we have some kind of road map for this?
I mean if we have copied the dtc tool into u-boot temporarily (until
distros catch up) or will it stay with us forever ?
