2010-10-29Drop support for CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOCWolfgang Denk
When this define was introduced, the idea was to provide a soft migration path for ARM boards to get adapted to the new relocation support. However, other recent changes led to a different implementation (ELF relocation), where this no longer works. By now CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC does not only not help any more, but it actually hurts because it obfuscates the actual code by sprinkling it with lots of dead and non-working debris. So let's make a clean cut and drop CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> Tested-by: Heiko Schocher <hs@denx.de> Tested-by: Reinhard Meyer <u-boot@emk-elektronik.de>
2010-10-29Replace CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS by CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOCWolfgang Denk
By now, the majority of architectures have working relocation support, so the few remaining architectures have become exceptions. To make this more obvious, we make working relocation now the default case, and flag the remaining cases with CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOC.

2010-10-22post/i2c: Add ability to ignore I2C devicesPeter Tyser
Add the ability to not report an I2C POST error for a set of given I2C addresses on bootup. This is useful for cases when a device may or may not be present, and neither case is considered an error. For example: - Some form factors such as XMC and Compact PCI Express have an I2C EEPROM whose address changes based on geographical address. Eg installed in one slot its EEPROM address is, 0x50, in another its 0x51, etc. This allows multiple devices to have their EEPROMs present on the same I2C bus. Thus the I2C devices present for an XMC or CPCIe card depend on if and where other cards are installed in the same system. - Some cards have optional I2C devices. Eg one hardware build configuration has different I2C devices than another and software can't determine if the optional device should be present or not. - Some cards have optional daughtercards with I2C devices on them. - I2C EEPROMs address range depends on their size. Its possible to support differently size EEPROMs by only probing the EEPROM's base address and ignoring the other addresses that are impacted by its size. A new CONFIG_SYS_POST_I2C_IGNORES define has been added which specifies a list of I2C addresses for the I2C POST to ignore.

2010-10-20Add memory test feature for mpc85xx POST.York Sun
The memory test is performed after DDR initialization when U-boot stills runs in flash and cache. On recent mpc85xx platforms, the total memory can be more than 2GB. To cover whole memory, it needs be mapped 2GB at a time using a sliding TLB window. After the testing, DDR is remapped with up to 2GB memory from the lowest address as normal. If memory test fails, DDR DIMM SPD and DDR controller registers are dumped for further debugging. Signed-off-by: York Sun <yorksun@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by a simple, table driven script.

2010-10-07p1022ds: add audclk hwconfig setting to enable codec reference clockTimur Tabi

Add a 'audclk' hwconfig option that allows the user to choose which clock he wants. The 12.288MHz clock allows the codec to use sampling rates of 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, and 96KHz. The 11.2896 clock allows 14700, 22050, 29400, 44100, 58800, and 88200Hz. Also configure a pin muxing to select some SSI signals, which will disable I2C1.

2010-07-04Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.Wolfgang Denk
The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to commands. Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done by changing the code into "char * const argv[]". This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused after adding a new command, which used the following argument processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot: int main (int argc, char **argv) { while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') { /* ====> */ while (*++*argv) { switch (**argv) { case 'd': debug++; break; ... default: usage (); } } } ... } The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by the shell. With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with an error: increment of read-only location '*argv' N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this: while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') { char *arg = *argv; while (*++arg) { switch (*arg) { ...
