Hi Guenter,
H8/300 has been dead for several years, the kernel for it has not compiled for ages, and recent versions of gcc for it are broken. It is time to drop support for it. Yes, I understand it is not that simple to drop an architecture, and it may need some discussion, but someone has to put a stake into the ground. Keeping a virtually dead architecture on life support takes resources which are better spent elsewhere.
Agree. You may add my Acked-by. How do you plan to get this upstream? Do I need to take the watchdog in my tree or do you plan to keep the set of patches together in one tree? Kind regards, Wim.
