The main goal is to catch up with FreeBSD and unify the baseline of the different parts of the libbsd. The network, USB and SD/MMC card parts used different FreeBSD versions. Thus, using an USB network component didn't work before due to incompatible network stack interfaces. There will be some work to do for each supported BSP after the update, e.g. adjustment of network interface drivers. I cannot do this for everything.

Do you have a specific list of what BSPs need what done? Maybe file one ticket or multiple to cover it?


A list of BSPs that use the libbsd would be helpful. I test with the following BSPs

powerpc/qoriq_t4240rdb
arm/xilinx_zynq_a9_qemu
arm/atsamv
arm/altcycv_devkit_smp
m68k/m5484FireEngine

Instructions? Examples?


Its a very big update (about 900 source files), problems can be everywhere.

Thanks.

Any idea how this impacted performance? I know Chris had mentioned seeing a regression on Zynq.


There are so many ways to measure performance and this is a big update with thousands of changes. So, I don't know.
