Cover letter [PATCH 0/9] ARM Versatile multi-platform support
Quoted 15 lines · Peter Maydell
Quoted 8 lines · Rob Herring

This has been tested on QEMU. A previous version was tested on Versatile/AB by Linus Walleij. Linus reported a problem with the display panel detection. Investigation on h/w is needed still as I have not been able to identify the issue by inspection and the display detection seems to work correctly on QEMU.

Linus had also mentioned to me that QEMU users may have some issue with removing non-DT code as the work flow has to change somewhat.

As long as you call out the requirement for a DT now in whatever your equivalent of release notes is that should be fine. (Does the kernel provide a useful message to serial in the absence of a DT or does it now not have enough platform knowledge to do that?)

Peter Maydell here for comment (and there's rumors he may have actual PB h/w with PCI as well).

Will Deacon and Marc Zyngier are currently in possession of that h/w. I'm sure they'd be delighted to pull it out of the cupboard and give it a spin :-)

I'll try to find some time (or a victim to do the testing... ;-). To those interested, I have a few extra PCI backplanes (just the PCB, not the huge noisy carrier rack) I could be convinced to part with...

Thanks,

	M.
