This patchset adds support for Rock960 and Ficus 96Boards from Vamrs. Since both boards share most of the configurations, a common Rock960 family support is added with common support and the actual boards are based on this.

The previous version of the patchseries were adding Rock960 [1] and Ficus [2] board support individually, but this series fuses them together based on the common board support as per Linux kernel.

[2] https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2018-August/339059.html

This patchseries has been tested on Rock960 v1.2 board and expecting Ezequiel to do the testing for Ficus.

PS: I have explicitly removed the previous Ack's for the Ficus board since there has been a heavy modification done on these patches.

Hi,

Is there any update on this patchset? AFAIK everyone is happy to get this merged!

It’s on pretty high up my list for the next merge window, but I didn’t get it into the current version.

So there goes another merge window. Any progress here?

So, I'm going to call out here that this new board is entirely missing a MAINTAINERS file. Causing ./tools/genboardscfg.py to complain about new defconfigs without a MAINTAINER. I'm gonna fix it now, but, grumble. I know checkpatch.pl does complain "Hey, new file, do you need to update MAINTAINERS" from Linux.

Hi Tom,

Sorry for that! It was my bad to left MAINTAINERS entry for Ficus board. Since there are two boards (Rock960 and Ficus) sharing common board support, I forgot to update the later one.
