2012-09-27PXE: FDT: Add support for fdt in PXEChander Kashyap
Now DT support is becoming common for all new SoC's. Hence it is better to have option for getting specific FDT from the remote server. This patch adds support for new label i.e. 'fdt'. This will allow to retrieve 'fdt blob' from the remote server. This patch take care for the following scenarios. The usage of fdt is optional. The 'fdt blob' can be retrieved from tftp or can be available locally or can be absent. If 'fdt_addr_r' environment variable is set and 'fdt' label is defined retrieve 'fdt blob' from tftp. 'fdt_addr_r' is then passed along bootm command. If 'fdt_addr' is set and 'fdt blob' is not retrieved from the tftp pass 'fdt_addr' to bootm command. In this case 'fdt blob' will be available at 'fdt_addr'. If 'fdt_addr' is not set and 'fdt blob' is not retrieve from tftp pass NULL to boot command. In this case 'fdt blob' is not required and absent. Signed-off-by: Chander Kashyap <chander.kashyap@linaro.org> Acked-by: Jason Hobbs <jason.hobbs@calxeda.com>

2012-09-24net: Make netconsole src and dest ports configurableJoe Hershberger
It is desirable to use different port numbers for sending and receiving packets with netconsole in the case where you have more than one device on the local subnet with netconsole enabled for broadcast. When they use the same port for both, any output from one will look like input to the other. This is typlically not desirable. This patch allows the input and output ports to be specified separately in the environment.

2012-09-01at91: atmel_nand: Update driver to support Programmable Multibit ECC controllerWu, Josh
The Programmable Multibit ECC (PMECC) controller is a programmable binary BCH(Bose, Chaudhuri and Hocquenghem) encoder and decoder. This controller can be used to support both SLC and MLC NAND Flash devices. It supports to generate ECC to correct 2, 4, 8, 12 or 24 bits of error per sector of data. To use PMECC in this driver, the user needs to set the PMECC correction capability, the sector size and ROM lookup table offsets in board config file. This driver is ported from Linux kernel atmel_nand PMECC patch. The main difference is in this version it uses registers structure access hardware instead of using macros. It is tested in 9x5 serial boards. Signed-off-by: Josh Wu <josh.wu@atmel.com> [rebase] Signed-off-by: Andreas Bießmann <andreas.devel@googlemail.com>
