3Migration Schedule
4==================
5
6U-Boot has been migrating to a new driver model since its introduction in
72014. This file describes the schedule for deprecation of pre-driver-model
8features.
9
10CONFIG_DM
11---------
12
13* Status: In progress
14* Deadline: 2020.01
15
16Starting with the 2010.01 release CONFIG_DM will be enabled for all boards.
17This does not concern CONFIG_DM_SPL and CONFIG_DM_TPL. The conversion date for
18these configuration items still needs to be defined.
19
20CONFIG_DM_MMC
21-------------
22
23* Status: In progress
24* Deadline: 2019.04
25
26The subsystem itself has been converted and maintainers should submit patches
27switching over to using CONFIG_DM_MMC and other base driver model options in
28time for inclusion in the 2019.04 rerelease.
29
30CONFIG_DM_USB
31-------------
32
33* Status: In progress
34* Deadline: 2019.07
35
36The subsystem itself has been converted along with many of the host controller
37and maintainers should submit patches switching over to using CONFIG_DM_USB and
38other base driver model options in time for inclusion in the 2019.07 rerelease.
39
40CONFIG_SATA
41-----------
42
43* Status: In progress
44* Deadline: 2019.07
45
46The subsystem itself has been converted along with many of the host controller
47and maintainers should submit patches switching over to using CONFIG_AHCI and
48other base driver model options in time for inclusion in the 2019.07 rerelease.
49
50CONFIG_BLK
51----------
52
53* Status: In progress
54* Deadline: 2019.07
55
56In concert with maintainers migrating their block device usage to the
57appropriate DM driver, CONFIG_BLK needs to be set as well.  The final deadline
58here coincides with the final deadline for migration of the various block
59subsystems.  At this point we will be able to audit and correct the logic in
60Kconfig around using CONFIG_PARTITIONS and CONFIG_HAVE_BLOCK_DEVICE and make
61use of CONFIG_BLK / CONFIG_SPL_BLK as needed.
62
63CONFIG_DM_SPI / CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH
64-----------------------------------
65
66Board Maintainers should submit the patches for enabling DM_SPI and DM_SPI_FLASH
67to move the migration with in the deadline.

93CONFIG_DM_PCI
94-------------
95Deadline: 2019.07
96
97The PCI subsystem has supported driver model since mid 2015. Maintainers should
98submit patches switching over to using CONFIG_DM_PCI and other base driver
99model options in time for inclusion in the 2019.07 release.
100
101
102CONFIG_DM_VIDEO
103---------------
104Deadline: 2019.07
105
106The video subsystem has supported driver model since early 2016. Maintainers
107should submit patches switching over to using CONFIG_DM_VIDEO and other base
108driver model options in time for inclusion in the 2019.07 release.
109
110CONFIG_DM_ETH
111-------------
112Deadline: 2020.07
113
114The network subsystem has supported the driver model since early 2015.
115Maintainers should submit patches switching over to using CONFIG_DM_ETH and
116other base driver model options in time for inclusion in the 2020.07 release.
