Michael Ellerman 627e66f29a Merge changes from Paul Gortmaker Merge the changes to retire the legacy WR sbc8548 and sbc8641 platforms from Paul. These were sent as a pull request, but I rebased them onto rc2 so as not to pull too many unrelated changes in to my next. Description from Paul's pull request follows: In v2.6.27 (2008, `917f0af9e5`) the sbc8260 support was implicitly retired by not being carried forward through the ppc --> powerpc device tree transition. Then, in v3.6 (2012, `b048b4e17c`) we retired the support for the sbc8560 boards. Next, in v4.18 (2017, `3bc6cf5a86`) we retired the support for the 2006 vintage sbc834x boards. The sbc8548 and sbc8641d boards were maybe 1-2 years newer than the sbc834x boards, but it is also 3+ years later, so it makes sense to now retire them as well - which is what is done here. These two remaining WR boards were based on the Freescale MPC8548-CDS and the MPC8641D-HPCN reference board implementations. Having had the chance to use these and many other Fsl ref boards, I know this: The Freescale reference boards were typically produced in limited quantity and primarily available to BSP developers and hardware designers, and not likely to have found a 2nd life with hobbyists and/or collectors. It was good to have that BSP code subjected to mainline review and hence also widely available back in the day. But given the above, we should probably also be giving serious consideration to retiring additional similar age/type reference board platforms as well. I've always felt it is important for us to be proactive in retiring old code, since it has a genuine non-zero carrying cost, as described in the `930d52c012` merge log. But for the here and now, we just clean up the remaining BSP code that I had added for SBC platforms. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210824174209.GB160508@windriver.com		2021-08-27 00:49:06 +10:00

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
