uboot4extlinux-ti-soc
uboot4extlinux-am335x and uboot4extlinux-omap3 were almost identical, the
only difference was the extlinux.conf file. So they were migrated together
in a single package for all TI SOCs.
I think having a single package saves maintenance time: We only have one
package to update for all the supported boards.
One downside is that it can increase the compilation time, but in overal it
probably saves a lot of time.
Another downside is that we cannot test the package separately for each
boards and have to test all the boards for each new update. However since
we are very close to upstream u-boot, there is very few probability of
having breakages that we don't know about. Factorizing the package can also
increase confidence that it will work on the boards we don't have, by
testing on the boards we have.
For instance I've only been able to test this package on the following
boards as I don't have any of the other boards:
- Beagleboard XM
- Beaglebone Green
The support for the Pandaborad from uboot-omap4_panda was added along the
way to furthurer unify u-boot packages.
In addition the version was updated and some whitespace fixes were done.

Booting was tested on a beaglebone green both with a microSD and
the internal eMMC.

Before that u-boot.img was to be located at 384k on the microSD,
as CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_SECTOR defaults to 0x300.
CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_SECTOR states:
Address on the MMC to load U-Boot from, when the MMC is being used
in raw mode. Units: MMC sectors (1 sector = 512 bytes).
However since once built, u-boot.img size was 692k, it went over
the 1MB empty space that is usually created when parititoning
block devices, effectively corrupting the first partition.

0001-parabola-arm-modifications.patch was removed because:
- CONFIG_DISTRO_DEFAULTS=y is in am335x_evm_defconfig
- #include <config_distro_bootcmd.h> is in am335x_evm.h
More details are available in doc/README.distro in the u-boot
source code.
