2018-11-29malloc_simple: Add logging of allocationsSimon Glass
It is sometimes useful to see what memory is being allocated early during boot. Add logging to support this, using a new LOGC_ALLOC category. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2018-08-24malloc_simple: calloc: don't call memset if malloc failedSimon Goldschmidt
malloc_simple() can return 0 if out of memory. Don't call memset from calloc() in this case but rely on the caller checking the return value. Signed-off-by: Simon Goldschmidt <simon.k.r.goldschmidt@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de>
2018-05-07SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel styleTom Rini
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line) and with slightly different comment styles than us. In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style. This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag and have introduced one. Signed-off-by: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>

2016-03-17malloc_simple: Add a little more debuggingSimon Glass
Output the pointer returned by each call to malloc(). This can be useful when debugging memory problems. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com>

2015-10-21malloc_simple: Add debug() informationSimon Glass
It's useful to get a a trace of memory allocations in early init. Add a debug() call to provide that. It can be enabled by adding '#define DEBUG' to the top of the file. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com>
2015-10-20malloc_simple: Add Kconfig option for using only malloc_simple in the SPLHans de Goede
common/dlmalloc.c is quite big, both in .text and .data usage, therefor on some boards the SPL is build to use only malloc_simple.c and not the dlmalloc.c code. This is done in various include/configs/foo.h with the following construct: #ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD #define CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE #endif This commit introduces a SPL_MALLOC_SIMPLE Kconfig bool which allows selecting this functionality through Kconfig instead.

2015-09-28malloc_simple: fix malloc_ptr calculationPhilipp Rosenberger
The gd->malloc_ptr and the gd->malloc_limit are offsets to gd->malloc_base. But the addr variable contains the absolute address. The new_ptr must be: addr + bytes - gd->malloc_base. Signed-off-by: Philipp Rosenberger <ilu@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
2015-08-28malloc_simple: Correct the alignment logic in memalign_simple()Simon Glass
This should use the align parameter, not bytes. Natural alignment is one use case but should not be the only one supported by this function. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>

2015-04-18common: Make sure arch-specific map_sysmem() is definedJoe Hershberger
In the case where the arch defines a custom map_sysmem(), make sure that including just mapmem.h is sufficient to have these functions as they are when the arch does not override it. Also split the non-arch specific functions out of common.h Signed-off-by: Joe Hershberger <joe.hershberger@ni.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2015-02-12malloc_simple: Return NULL on malloc failure rather then calling panic()Hans de Goede
All callers of malloc should already do error checking, and may even be able to continue without the alloc succeeding. Moreover, common/malloc_simple.c is the only user of .rodata.str1.1 in common/built-in.o when building the SPL, triggering this gcc bug: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54303 Causing .rodata to grow with e.g. 0xc21 bytes, nullifying all benefits of using malloc_simple in the first place.

2014-11-21dm: Split the simple malloc() implementation into its own fileSimon Glass
The simple malloc() implementation is used when memory is tight. It provides a simple buffer with an incrementing pointer. At present the implementation is inside dlmalloc. Move it into its own file so that it is easier to find. Rather than using relocation as a signal that the full malloc() is available, add a special GD_FLG_FULL_MALLOC_INIT flag. This signals that the simple malloc() should no longer be used. In some cases, such as SPL, even the code space used by the full malloc() is wasteful. Add a CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_SIMPLE option to provide only the simple malloc. In this case the full malloc is not available at all. It saves about 1KB of code space and about 0.5KB of data on Thumb 2.
