We cannot use both the legacy and driver-model block + drivers since they implement the same functions +sandbox_spl - builds sandbox with SPL support, so you can run spl/u-boot-spl + and it will start up and then load ./u-boot. It is also possible to + run ./u-boot directly. + +Of these sandbox_noblk can be removed once CONFIG_BLK is used everwhere, and +sandbox_spl can probably be removed since it is a superset of sandbox. + +Most of the config options should be identical between these variants. + + Linux RAW Networking Bridge --------------------------- -- 2.25.1
