Hi Tom,

Sure. I will send out a V8 set just dropping listed xleafs and doing the cleanups.

Thanks,

Lizhi

Hi Tom,

I am working on v8 patchset which I followed your guidance to move the listed xleaf to suggested subsystems. And the spelling error fixes, and fpga-xrt.h cleanup are all included.
Does that make senses to you? If yes, I may send the V8 patchset early next week for you to review.

Can handling the move be done in a followup ?

AFAIK, there are no other problems with v7 and I would rather see a
smaller subset of v7 make it intree sooner.

This would mean dropping the (maybe) contentious xleafs from v8 just
doing the cleanups.

Tom


Thanks,
Lizhi

Lizhi

This pathset has stalled.

The spelling changes should be fixed.

Some of xleafs may need to be moved and reworked.

The addition of building outside of fpga/xrt is a new feature, and I
think is best considered when the first foundational change (this
patchset) is in tree.

Could the xleafs' below be dropped from this set ?
