b4[1] is a very nice tool for mail-based contribution. A config[2] file exists to set up a few defaults. We can use it to set the To recipients to always add, in our case the mailing list. This shouldn't be necessary if we had a script that b4 prep --auto-to-cc could call to find the mail address(es) to send to. While we could do that, this opens the door to people trying to add a way to notify some people (e.g. a MAINTAINERS file) which is not somewhere the project wants to go right now, and this also makes sure the address is always added even if one forgets to run b4 prep --auto-to-cc (which is part of the typical workflow for U-Boot and Linux kernel, but is not necessary thanks to this patch). Additionally, automatically provide a default prefix so that one doesn't need to not forget to run `b4 prep --set-prefixes meta-rockchip` for each series.

OpenEmbedded BSP layer for Rockchip boards
About:
The purpose of this layer is to provide OpenEmbedded BSP support for
Rockchip-based devices using upstream sources as much as possible.
Dependencies:
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core
layers: meta
branch: matched branches (e.g. master, sumo, ...)
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-arm
layers: meta-arm, meta-arm-toolchain
branch: matched branches (e.g. master, sumo, ...)
Status of supported boards:
builds and boots wic image:
nanopi-m4
nanopi-m4-2gb
rock-pi-e
rock-pi-4a
rock-pi-4b
rock-pi-4c
rock64
tinker-board
tinker-board-s
vyasa-rk3288
firefly-rk3288
nanopi-r4s

nanopi-m4b
rock-pi-s
rock-5a
roc-rk3328-cc
roc-rk3308-cc
orangepi-5-plus
rock-3a
rock-4c-plus
builds:
marsboard-rk3066
radxarock
rock2-square
Notes:
The latest ddr initializer for the rk3308 platform does not output
diagnostic messages to uart0. This causes a bunch of gibberish to
be printed to the console window which only becomes legible once
the linux kernel starts. I.e. the console output of the ddr
initialization routine, as well as u-boot is lost. An older
version of this same binary blob does, however, support output to
uart0 (making its diagnostic messages as well as u-boot available
on the console). By default the build assumes the user would like
to see these message and be able to have the option to interact
with u-boot.
IOW: for rk3308-based devices, an older version of rkbin is used.
If, however, the user would prefer to use the latest binary ddr
initializer from rkbin, simply set:
RKBIN_RK3308_LATEST = "1"
in the configuration (e.g. conf/local.conf).
U-Boot Environment:
In order to configure U-Boot to be able to store its environment into the
device from which it was booted, for any device supported in this BSP,
simply add the following to MACHINE_FEATURES:
rk-u-boot-env
If enabled, to additionally have the U-Boot environment generated and
stored in the image, also enable the following variable (default: off):
RK_IMAGE_INCLUDES_UBOOT_ENV
The script:
scripts/dump-uboot-env-from-yocto-image.sh
can be used on a rockchip wic image to see the contents of the U-Boot
environment partition at build time.
Maintenance:
