2010-08-04Rename getenv_r() into getenv_f()Wolfgang Denk
While running from flash, i. e. before relocation, we have only a limited C runtime environment without writable data segment. In this phase, some configurations (for example with environment in EEPROM) must not use the normal getenv(), but a special function. This function had been called getenv_r(), with the idea that the "_r" suffix would mean the same as in the _r_eentrant versions of some of the C library functions (for example getdate vs. getdate_r, getgrent vs. getgrent_r, etc.). Unfortunately this was a misleading name, as in U-Boot the "_r" generally means "running from RAM", i. e. _after_ relocation. To avoid confusion, rename into getenv_f() [as "running from flash"] Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> Acked-by: Detlev Zundel <dzu@denx.de>
2010-07-22i2c: soft_i2c: add simple GPIO implementationMike Frysinger
Since the vast majority of GPIO I2C implementations behave the same way, support the common GPIO framework with default settings. This adds two new defines CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_{SCL,SDA} so that boards which want GPIO I2C support need only define these.

2010-05-28nios2: fix r15 issue for gcc4Thomas Chou
The "-ffixed-r15" option doesn't work well for gcc4. Since we don't use gp for small data with option "-G0", we can use gp as global data pointer. This allows compiler to use r15. It is necessary for gcc4 to work properly. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou <thomas@wytron.com.tw> Signed-off-by: Scott McNutt <smcnutt@psyent.com>
2010-05-03Program net device MAC addresses after initializingBen Warren
Add a new function to the eth_device struct for programming a network controller's hardware address. After all network devices have been initialized and the proper MAC address for each has been determined, make a device driver call to program the address into the device. Only device instances with valid unicast addresses will be programmed.

2010-04-21Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpcStefan Roese
As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to better match the Linux directory structure. Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc" is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with scripts using this name.

2010-04-19fsl_i2c: Added a callpoint for i2c_board_late_initRichard Retanubun
This patch adds a callpoint in i2c_init that allows board specific i2c board initialization (typically for i2c bus reset) that is called after i2c_init operations, allowing the i2c_board_late_init function to use the pre-configured i2c bus speed and slave address.

2010-03-21TFTP: allow for adjustable retransmission timoutWolfgang Denk
So far, TFTP negotiated a fixed retransmission timeout of 5 seconds. In some cases (busy networks, slow TFTP servers) this caused very slow transfers. A new environment variable "tftptimeout" allows to set this timeout. Lowering this value may make downloads succeed faster in networks with high packet loss rates or with unreliable TFTP servers.

2009-10-27Revert "env: only build env_embedded and envcrc when needed"Wolfgang Denk
Breaks building on many boards, and no really clean fix available yet. This reverts commit 6dab6add2d8ee80905234b326abc3de11be1d178.
2009-10-18env: only build env_embedded and envcrc when neededMike Frysinger
The env code is protected by the ENV_IS_EMBEDDED define, so attempting to compile the code when this isn't defined is pointless. Now that the env headers have unified around CONFIG_ENV_IS_EMBEDDED, convert the build system to only build the env objects when this is enabled. And now that the env code is conditionally compiled, we can drop the source code checks. For people who want to extract the environment manually, add a new option CONFIG_BUILD_ENVCRC that only enables the envcrc utility. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
2009-09-25mucmc52, uc101: delete ata@3a00 node, if no CF card is detectedHeiko Schocher
U-Boot can detect if an IDE device is present or not. If not, and this new config option is activated, U-Boot removes the ATA node from the DTS before booting Linux, so the Linux IDE driver does not probe the device and crash. This is needed for buggy hardware (uc101) where no pull down resistor is connected to the signal IDE5V_DD7. Signed-off-by: Heiko Schocher <hs@denx.de>

2009-09-06Reset i2c slave devices during init on mpc5xxx cpusEric Millbrandt
Reset any i2c devices that may have been interrupted during a system reset. Normally this would be accomplished by clocking the line until SCL and SDA are released and then sending a start condtiion (From an Atmel datasheet). There is no direct access to the i2c pins so instead create start commands through the i2c interface. Send a start command then delay for the SDA Hold time, repeat this by disabling/enabling the bus a total of 9 times. Signed-off-by: Eric Millbrandt <emillbrandt@dekaresearch.com>
2009-09-02Blackfin: change global data register from P5 to P3Robin Getz
Since the Blackfin ABI favors higher scratch registers by default, use the last scratch register (P3) for global data rather than the first (P5). This allows the compiler's register allocator to use higher number scratch P registers, which in turn better matches the Blackfin instruction set, which reduces the size of U-Boot by more than 1024 bytes...

2009-07-16Remove legacy NAND and disk on chip code.Scott Wood
Legacy NAND had been scheduled for removal. Any boards that use this were already not building in the previous release due to an #error. The disk on chip code in common/cmd_doc.c relies on legacy NAND, and it has also been removed. There is newer disk on chip code in drivers/mtd/nand; someone with access to hardware and sufficient time and motivation can try to get that working, but for now disk on chip is not supported.

2009-07-07nand_spl: read environment early, when booting from NAND using nand_splGuennadi Liakhovetski
Currently, when booting from NAND using nand_spl, in the beginning the default environment is used until later in boot process the dynamic environment is read out. This way environment variables that must be interpreted early, like the baudrate or "silent", cannot be modified dynamically and remain at their default values. Fix this problem by reading out main and redundand (if used) copies of the environment in the nand_spl code.

We now have the 2 MTD infrastructure defines, CONFIG_MTD_DEVICE and CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS.

2009-04-04Add support for building native win32 toolsPeter Tyser
Add support for compiling the host tools in the tools directory using the MinGW toolchain. This produces executables which can be used on standard Windows computers without requiring cygwin. One must specify the MinGW compiler and strip utilities as if they were the host toolchain in order to build win32 executables, eg: make HOSTCC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc HOSTSTRIP=i586-mingw32msvc-strip tools Signed-off-by: Peter Tyser <ptyser@xes-inc.com>

According to the doc/feature-removal-schedule.txt, the "autoscr" command will be replaced by the "source" command in approximately 6 months from now. This patch prepares this change and starts a 6 month transition period as follows: - The new "source" command has been added, which implements exactly the same functionlaity as the old "autoscr" command before - The old "autoscr" command name is kept as an alias for compatibility - Command sequences, script files atc. have been adapted to use the new "source" command - Related environment variables ("autoscript", "autoscript_uname") have *not* been adapted yet; these will be renamed resp. removed in a separate patch when the support for the "autoscr" command get's finally dropped.

This patch will create a configuration option for a minimum configuration for the ns16550 serial driver at drivers/serial/ns16550.c and will apply this new configuration option to the SIMPC8313.h config file in order to fix the NAND bootstrap build error.
