Done. >> ERROR: need consistent spacing around '/' (ctx:WxV) >> +#define CONFIG_ROOTPATH /nfs/root/path > > Actually this is IMO wrong. Should it not be "/nfs/root/path" > instead? Potentially it should be a defined as string literal in the future. It is currently expected to not be a string in common/env_embedded.c, common/env_common.c, and tools/env/fw_env.c where it uses MK_STR. Potentially a future cleanup could change all of these references, however it would break any external definitions of CONFIG_ROOTPATH that may be passed in from the environment (expecting the MK_STR). > >> ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parenthesis >> +#define CONFIG_UBOOTPATH u-boot.bin > > Ditto here.
