Hello Simon,

thanks for pointing me to the right place. I will adjust my patch.

I think we have some design issues with sub-commands:

I want to have auto-completion for the sub-commands. Unfortunately the
"standard way" does not offer it out of the box.

The standard way further forces the creation of redundant code like:

static int do_zynq(cmd_tbl_t *cmdtp, int flag, int argc, char * const
argv[])
{
        cmd_tbl_t *zynq_cmd;
        int ret;

        if (!ARRAY_SIZE(zynq_commands)) {
                puts("No zynq specific command enabled\n");
                return CMD_RET_USAGE;
        }

        if (argc < 2)
                return CMD_RET_USAGE;
        zynq_cmd = find_cmd_tbl(argv[1], zynq_commands,
                                ARRAY_SIZE(zynq_commands));
        if (!zynq_cmd || argc != zynq_cmd->maxargs)
                return CMD_RET_USAGE;

        ret = zynq_cmd->cmd(zynq_cmd, flag, argc, argv);

        return cmd_process_error(zynq_cmd, ret);
}

It would be preferable to reference cmd_tbl_t in U_BOOT_CMD. Furthermore
U_BOOT_CMD_MKENT should allow references to a cmd_tbl_t for sub-sub
commands. This way autocompletion of subcommands could be provided.

This would also allow to place the help texts for subcommands into
U_BOOT_CMD_MKENT where they belong.

Why are U_BOOT_SUBCMD_START and U_BOOT_SUBCMD_END only defined for
CONFIG_CMDLINE=n? This way we cannot use them.

Why do we check CONFIG_SYS_LONGHELP inside cmd/*.c for many commands?
Hasn't this been superseded by _CMD_HELP in include/commands.h?

Best regards

Heinrich
