Now that this is the case, both in GRUB and in the respective kernel trees, we should no longer be using the LinuxLoader, which means it certainly does not belong in a reference code base such as Tiancore. So replace or remove existing references (#1, #2) before deleting the code altogether (#3) Ard Biesheuvel (3): EmbeddedPkg/AndroidFastboot: drop dependency on the LinuxLoader BeagleBoardPkg/BeagleBoardPkg.dsc: remove the LinuxLoader application ArmPkg: remove the LinuxLoader application ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/AArch64/LinuxStarter.c | 370 ------------------ ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/AArch64/LinuxStarterHelper.S | 58 --- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/Arm/LinuxAtag.c | 177 --------- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/Arm/LinuxAtag.h | 124 ------ ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/Arm/LinuxStarter.c | 346 ---------------- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.c | 248 ------------ ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.h | 166 -------- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.inf | 91 ----- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.uni | 87 ----- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderEfiApp.c | 303 --------------- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderFdt.c | 411 -------------------- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderHelper.c | 192 --------- ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderShellApp.c | 298 -------------- ArmPkg/ArmPkg.dsc | 2 - BeagleBoardPkg/BeagleBoardPkg.dsc | 12 - BeagleBoardPkg/BeagleBoardPkg.fdf | 3 - EmbeddedPkg/Application/AndroidFastboot/Arm/BootAndroidBootImg.c | 70 ++-- 17 files changed, 22 insertions(+), 2936 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/AArch64/LinuxStarter.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/AArch64/LinuxStarterHelper.S delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/Arm/LinuxAtag.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/Arm/LinuxAtag.h delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/Arm/LinuxStarter.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.h delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.inf delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoader.uni delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderEfiApp.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderFdt.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderHelper.c delete mode 100644 ArmPkg/Application/LinuxLoader/LinuxLoaderShellApp.c -- 2.7.4
