2019-07-11arm: spear: Do not link the _main branchMiquel Raynal
The _main call is not supposed to return at all: don't link the branch. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
2019-07-11arm: spear: Support returning to BootROMMiquel Raynal
Implement the weak board_return_to_bootrom() function so that when enabling the spl_bootrom.c driver, one can make use of usbboot on spear platforms. All necessary information to return to the BootROM are stored in the BootROM's stack. The SPL stack pointer is reset so we save the BootROM's stack pointer into the SPL .data section.

2019-07-11arm: spear: Simplify start.S organizationMiquel Raynal
There is no reason to do the few spear-related initialization, in a different procedure than 'reset'. Spare one branching and get a linear code flow by removing this indirection. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
2019-07-11arm: spear: Reference the link register with LR instead of R14Miquel Raynal
The link register is stored in R14. ARM assembly code allows to use the 'lr' name to reference it instead of 'r14' which is not very meaningful. Do the substitution to ease the reading. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
2019-07-11arm: spear: Use PUSH/POP mnemonics when relevantMiquel Raynal
Quoting ARM "RealView Compilation Tools Assembler Guide v4.0": PUSH and POP are synonyms for STMDB and LDM (or LDMIA), with the base register sp (r13), and the adjusted address written back to the base register. PUSH and POP are the preferred mnemonic in these cases. Let's follow this recommandation to ease the reading and substitute LDMIA/STMDB operations with PUSH/POP mnemonics.

2019-07-11arm: spear: Purely cosmetic changes in start.SMiquel Raynal
Before cleaning a bit further the spear/start.S file, apply a few cosmetic changes: capital letters, comment indentation and small rewriting. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
2019-07-11arm: spear: Fix the main comment in start.SMiquel Raynal
This comment describes the board state at the moment where we enter the SPL. The description is entirely wrong; re-write it to fit the reality. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
2019-07-11arm: spear: Drop false commentMiquel Raynal
SPL BSS lies in SRAM and is actually initialized to 0 by the SPL in arch/arm/lib/crt0.S:_main(), which is called by cpu_init_crit. Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stefan Roese <sr@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>
2015-08-28arm: spear: Move to common SPL infrastructureStefan Roese
The SPL implementation for SPEAr600 is older than the common SPL infrastructure. This patch now moves the SPEAr600 SPL over to the common SPL code. Tested on the only SPEAr board that currently uses SPL in mainline U-Boot, the x600.

2014-05-15arm: move exception handling out of start.S filesAlbert ARIBAUD
Exception handling is basically identical for all ARM targets. Factorize it out of the various start.S files and into a single vectors.S file, and adjust linker scripts accordingly. Signed-off-by: Albert ARIBAUD <albert.u.boot@aribaud.net>

2012-07-07SPL: ARM: spear: Add SPL support for SPEAr600 platformStefan Roese
This patch adds SPL support for SPEAr600. Currently only SNOR (Serial NOR) flash support is included. Other boot devices (NAND, MMC, USB ...) may be added with later patches. Tested on the STM SPEAr600 evaluation and x600 SPEAr600 boards. Signed-off-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de> Cc: Amit Virdi <amit.virdi@st.com> Cc: Vipin Kumar <vipin.kumar@st.com>
