I know this is a little bit off the beaten path, but any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I will append this post with any new information I discover.
I am trying to unravel exactly how LTIB updates u-boot. The command:
./ltib -m prep -p u-boot
works well and does create a set of working files on my PC.
I know that LTIB unzips the u-boot 2009-08 source from DENX, located in /rpm/SOURCES, then unzips its own updates to a new directory called /patches. There is a /patches/patch-uboot.sh script which applies the 200+ patch files in the directory to the DENX root, creating the Freescale version of u-boot. That said unzipping the files manually and then running /patches/patch-uboot.sh does not yield the same files as using ltib -m prep -p u-boot.
Can anyone point me in the right direction either in the LTIB perl scripts (or elsewhere?) to help me see exactly where the creation of the working u-boot is occurring (so that I can duplicate this myself).
What I am trying to accomplish is the migration of these patches into my subversion repository individually, in order to overlay some internal u-boot mods made to a newer version of the DENX code. If I can see the modifications made to the codebase by Freescale, my hope is it will make merging my changes into the repository a lot simpler (Freescale changes vs DENX updates vs internal mods).
Thanks in advance,
S
