2013-10-31powerpc: convert makefiles to Kbuild styleMasahiro Yamada
Note: arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/Makefile is originally like follows: ---<snip>--- START = start.o kgdb.o COBJS = traps.o serial_smc.o serial_scc.o cpu.o cpu_init.o speed.o \ ---<snip>--- COBJS-$(CONFIG_ETHER_ON_SCC) = ether_scc.o ---<snip>--- $(LIB): $(OBJS) $(call cmd_link_o_target, $(OBJS) $(obj)kgdb.o) The link rule `$(call cmd_link_o_target, $(OBJS) $(obj)kgdb.o)' is weird. kbdg.o is not included in $(OBJS) but linked into $(LIB) and $(LIB) is not dependent on kgdb.o. (Broken dependency tracking) So, START = start.o kgdb.o shoud have been START = start.o SOBJS = kgdb.o That is why this commit adds kgdb.o to obj-y, not to extra-y.

2013-03-15Replace __bss_end__ with __bss_endSimon Glass
Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures. At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead. Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all archs. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2013-03-12Refactor linker-generated arraysAlbert ARIBAUD
Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols which were previously linker-generated are now compiler- generated. This causes relocation records of type R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as well as after. Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker- lists span possibly all target architectures, notably PowerPC.

2012-11-278xxx: Change all 8*xx_DDR addresses to 8xxxAndy Fleming
There were a number of shared files that were using CONFIG_SYS_MPC85xx_DDR_ADDR, or CONFIG_SYS_MPC86xx_DDR_ADDR, and several variants (DDR2, DDR3). A recent patchset added 85xx-specific ones to code which was used by 86xx systems. After reviewing places where these constants were used, and noting that the type definitions of the pointers assigned to point to those addresses were the same, the cleanest approach to fixing this problem was to unify the namespace for the 85xx, 83xx, and 86xx DDR address definitions. This patch does: s/CONFIG_SYS_MPC8.xx_DDR/CONFIG_SYS_MPC8xxx_DDR/g All 85xx, 86xx, and 83xx have been built with this change.

2012-10-22powerpc/mpc85xx: software workaround for DDR erratum A-004468York Sun
Boot space translation utilizes the pre-translation address to select the DDR controller target. However, the post-translation address will be presented to the selected DDR controller. It is possible that the pre- translation address selects one DDR controller but the post-translation address exists in a different DDR controller when using certain DDR controller interleaving modes. The device may fail to boot under these circumstances. Note that a DDR MSE error will not be detected since DDR controller bounds registers are programmed to be the same when configured for DDR controller interleaving.

2011-10-09powerpc/mpc86xx: Disable translation for BAT setupBecky Bruce
We really shouldn't be overwriting bat registers with translation enabled, especially when we're executing code using one of them for translating the current instruction stream. Instead, disable address translation while doing the final BAT setup. In order to do this, setup_bats has to move back to asm code, because we require translation to be enabled to have a stack for C code. The yucky thing about that is that the assembler doesn't like ULL so we have to switch to using HIGH/LOW pairs for physical addresses that are > 32 bits in length.

We now implement the following hierarchy: - Highest priority has a "#define CONFIG_SYS_LDCONFIG" in the board config file. - If CONFIG_SYS_LDCONFIG is not set, and the system is booting from NAND (CONFIG_NAND_SPL is set), then a board specific linker script board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds gets used. - If we are not booting from NAND, we test if a processor specific linker script arch/powerpc/cpu/$(CPU)/u-boot.lds exists; if so we use that. - As default, arch/powerpc/config.mk gets used.

2010-11-17Switch from archive libraries to partial linkingSebastien Carlier
Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols". This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended. This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is inspired. The name of each former library archive is preserved except for extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker scripts. This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but include source files that depend these disabled features in the build, resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include: - disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS; - enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE. Signed-off-by: Sebastien Carlier <sebastien.carlier@gmail.com>
2010-11-14PowerPC: Don't destroy fixup table while doing fixupsJoakim Tjernlund

2010-10-26Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated valueWolfgang Denk
CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files. Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not reliable enough. This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the asm-offsets tool. In the result, all definitions of this value can be deleted from the board config files. We have to make sure that all files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file. No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro definitions as well.

Currently, 83xx, 86xx, and 85xx have a lot of duplicated code dedicated to defining and manipulating the LBC registers. Merge this into a single spot. To do this, we have to decide on a common name for the data structure that holds the lbc registers - it will now be known as fsl_lbc_t, and we adopt a common name for the immap layouts that include the lbc - this was previously known as either im_lbc or lbus; use the former. In addition, create accessors for the BR/OR regs that use in/out_be32 and use those instead of the mismash of access methods currently in play.

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) { ...
