Clarification - Missing tsec.c in cpu/mpc85xx ???

Just to clarify my previous message, there was an error in it.

I did not actually modify the

cpu/mpc85xx/Makefile

Instead, I fixed the linker problem by removing the reference to

    cpu/mpc85xx/tsec.o

in the u-boot.lds file for my board. I had copied this from

    board/tqm8540/u-boot.lds

in the June 15th download.

I am still puzzled as to my tsec.c was moved though.

I have a problem with a missing file.

On August 10th I downloaded the latest copy of U-Boot from CVS.

I found that when trying to ?make? for an 8540 based board, I received an error from the linker that

           cpu/mpc85xx/tsec.o

was missing.

I checked the CVS repository via the Web on the SourceForge site today and confirmed that

tsec.c

is no longer in the

          cpu/mpc85xx/

directory - but exists in

drivers/

instead.

On checking my previous downloads (Apr 11th and June 15th) I see that the file tsec.c existed in

          cpu/mpc85xx.

Obviously, modifying the cpu/mpc85xx/Makefile to remove tsec.o from the COBJS list fixed the problem.

I want to check with the rest of the list though to see if this is maybe a symptom of something more serious that I have done wrong. Maybe it was indeed just a simple bug - hopefully!

Charles.

If you had your board included in the public source tree you would not have run into this problem as we cleaned up all existing boards when adding the patch.

As to my? You mean why? I already pointed this out: see
http://source.denx.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=63be111e72371b6edc6d02134dd785abb6be188c
