Hi,

do the following assumptions and conclusions make sense?

- The Sciphone G2 is intended as a platform where we want to run L1/2/3 natively on Linux (somewhen).

- Thus, from all the applications in osmocom-bb for the targets, we only need the loader to get the first bootloader onto the system (in case JTAG is not available or wanted)

- Being that different, it doesn't make sense to fit the mediatek-platform into the existing makefile-templates which build all applications for all boards.

I'd suggest to create a new top-level target "mtk" which only builds the loaders for mediatek-phones. All unneeded applications and libraries are skipped. A preview of a possible directory-structure to add mtk-support could look like this then:

. ├── board │ ├── mediatek │ │ ├── exceptions_redirected.S │ │ ├── exceptions_redirect.S │ │ ├── handlers.S │ │ ├── header.S │ │ ├── macros.S │ │ ├── ram.lds │ │ ├── start.ram.S │ │ ├── start.rom.S │ │ └── uart.c │ └── mt62xx │ └── init.c └── include └── mtk ├── bfe.h ├── bpi.h ├── bsi.h ├── emi.h ├── mt6235.h ├── mt6235_sciphone_g2.h ├── system.h └── tdma_timer.h

It can be cleaned up a bit once there is a working state. Of course, a few modifications to makefiles are also needed. Note there is now a seperate uart.c in the mediatek-folder.

Any objections? Anything I missed?

Regards,

Wolfram
