12:33 <NishanthMenon> Tartarus: just curious.. is there a reason we dont use defconfig fragments in u-boot? https://gist.github.com/nmenon/2280bbd05bfb0f56319f1315af772927 it seems to work for sure.. and could help reduce the pain of various configuration combinations..

14:11 <milkylainen> sjg1: You did the mkimage fit signing additions? Is there a step in mkimage/other tool to verify a fit in userspace using the public key?

14:20 <Tartarus> NishanthMenon: Is this related to, or just a happy'ish coincidence to the tegra platform series that's using config fragments?

14:56 <NishanthMenon> Lol. Tartarus just coincidence... That is awesome..

16:10 <Tartarus> Well, I want to figure out how to handle fragments in a supportable way

16:10 <Tartarus> since, thinking out loud, it would be good to have _less_ stuff in configs/

16:10 <Tartarus> I dunno how to work it so we can put them in board/../ instead

17:26 <xypron> Tartarus: out 'Release cycle' page points to

17:26 <xypron> https://source.denx.de/u-boot/gitdm

17:26 <xypron> This is Python2 codr

17:26 <xypron> code

17:27 <xypron> Which gitdm do you use?

17:35 <Tartarus> https://source.denx.de/u-boot/gitdm/-/tree/u-boot?ref_type=heads

17:35 <Tartarus> and lets see if I should update master too then

17:36 <Tartarus> git://git.lwn.net/gitdm.git is the upstream tree

17:48 <Tartarus> NishanthMenon: So, in sum, fragments could be good, but we need some work around tooling too, not being able to "just" buildman them means they'd be missed in CI, which is a problem, and we probably need a little further logic to hunt for .config fragments in $(BOARDDIR) as well, so we don't explode the configs dir even more.

17:48 <Tartarus> it would solve other problems that everyone including TI has, so I do like it overall

19:37 <xypron> Tartarus: in gilab you could set u-boot as the default branch. Then git clone will choose this branch.

19:39 <Tartarus> ah ok, thanks, done.

19:39 <xypron> Tartarus: branch u-boot has in file gitdm print w/o paratheses. So this is Python2

19:43 <Tartarus> you mean that debug print?

19:44 <Tartarus> My main point is that if you have general code cleanups, send them to Jon first

19:44 <Tartarus> And we'll pull them back in that way

19:46 <xypron> https://source.denx.de/u-boot/gitdm/-/blob/u-boot/gitdm#L111

19:51 <xypron> Tartarus: git://git.lwn.net/gitdm.git is on Python3 but our repo is on Python2

19:52 <Tartarus> OK, so I hadn't updated master remotely

19:52 <Tartarus> Now we're in sync there

19:53 <xypron> Tartarus: how about the u-boot branch?

19:53 <Tartarus> Yes, that's always been python 3

19:53 <Tartarus> or rather has been for as long as I've been pushing stuff there

19:54 <xypron> Tartarus: no. our u-boot branch is on Python 2. last commit 2021

19:55 <Tartarus> Sigh, I really thought I had pushed stuff

19:55 <xypron> Hope you have the change locally.

19:55 <Tartarus> Many changes, yes, pushed no

19:55 <Tartarus> w

19:56 <xypron> Looks good now. Thanks

19:57 <Tartarus> Sorry for the confusion, I really thought I had pushed all of that a long while ago

19:57 <xypron> And cloning gives me branch u-boot. So now we are fine.

19:57 <xypron> Thanks
