1 | +The following is a list of files and features that are going to be | |
2 | +removed from the U-Boot source tree. Every entry should contain what | |
3 | +exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed, | |
4 | +and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed | |
5 | +from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this | |
6 | +file. | |

8 | +--------------------------- | |
9 | + | |
10 | +What: "autoscr" command | |
11 | +When: August 2009 | |
12 | +Why: "autosrc" is an ugly and completely non-standard name. The "autoscr" | |
13 | + command is deprecated and will be replaced the "source" command as | |
14 | + used by other shells such as bash. Both commands will be supported | |
15 | + for a transition period of 6 months after which "autoscr" will be | |
16 | + removed. | |

19 | +--------------------------- | |
20 | + | |
21 | +What: Individual I2C commands | |
22 | +When: April 2009 | |
23 | +Why: Per the U-Boot README, individual I2C commands such as "imd", "imm", | |
24 | + "imw", etc are deprecated. The single "i2c" command which is | |
25 | + currently enabled via CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE contains the same | |
26 | + functionality as the individual I2C commands. The individual | |
27 | + I2C commands should be removed as well as any references to | |
28 | + CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE. | |
29 | +Who: Peter Tyser <ptyser@xes-inc.com> | |

31 | +--------------------------- | |
32 | + | |
33 | +What: Legacy NAND code | |
34 | +When: April 2009 | |
35 | +Why: Legacy NAND code is deprecated. Similar functionality exists in | |
36 | + more recent NAND code ported from the Linux kernel. | |
