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>
2016-07-15ARM: Add an empty secure stack sectionChen-Yu Tsai
Until now we've been using memory beyond psci_text_end as stack space for the secure monitor or PSCI implementation, even if space was not allocated for it. This was partially fixed in ("ARM: allocate extra space for PSCI stack in secure section during link phase"). However, calculating stack space from psci_text_end in one place, while allocating the space in another is error prone. This patch adds a separate empty secure stack section, with space for CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI_NR_CPUS stacks, each 1 KB. There's also __secure_stack_start and __secure_stack_end symbols. The linker script handles calculating the correct VMAs for the stack section. For platforms that relocate/copy the secure monitor before using it, the space is not allocated in the executable, saving space. For platforms that do not define CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI_NR_CPUS, a whole page of stack space for 4 CPUs is allocated, matching the previous behavior.

2016-03-15efi_loader: Add runtime servicesAlexander Graf
After booting has finished, EFI allows firmware to still interact with the OS using the "runtime services". These callbacks live in a separate address space, since they are available long after U-Boot has been overwritten by the OS. This patch adds enough framework for arbitrary code inside of U-Boot to become a runtime service with the right section attributes set. For now, we don't make use of it yet though. We could maybe in the future map U-boot environment variables to EFI variables here.

2014-07-28ARM: HYP/non-sec: add separate section for secure codeMarc Zyngier
In anticipation of refactoring the HYP/non-secure code to run from secure RAM, add a new linker section that will contain that code. Nothing is using it just yet. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Acked-by: Ian Campbell <ijc@hellion.org.uk>

This prevents references to _end from generating absolute relocation records. This change is binary invariant for ARM targets. Signed-off-by: Albert ARIBAUD <albert.u.boot@aribaud.net>

2013-06-21arm: make __rel_dyn_{start, end} compiler-generatedAlbert ARIBAUD
This change is only done where needed: some linker scripts may contain relocation symbols yet remain unchanged. __rel_dyn_start and __rel_dyn_end each requires its own output section; putting them in relocation sections changes their flags and breaks relocation.

2013-06-21arm: generalize lib/bss.c into lib/sections.cAlbert ARIBAUD
File arch/arm/lib/bss.c was initially defined for BSS only, but is now going to also contain definitions for other section-boundary-related symbols, so rename it for better accuracy. Also, remove useless 'used' attributes.
