2014-03-28Start the deprecation process for generic boardSimon Glass
We should move forward to remove the old board init code. Add a prominent message to encourage maintainers to get started on this work. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2014-03-17sandbox: Add LCD driverSimon Glass
Add a simple LCD driver which uses SDL to display the image. We update the image regularly, while still providing for reasonable performance. Adjust the common lcd code to support sandbox. For command-line runs we do not want the LCD to be displayed, so add a --show_lcd option to enable it. Tested-by: Che-Liang Chiou <clchiou@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2014-03-12kbuild: rename TOPDIR to stctreeMasahiro Yamada
Prior to Kbuild, $(TOPDIR) or $(SRCTREE) was used for pointing to the top of source directory. (No difference between the two.) In Kbuild style, $(srctree) is used instead.

2014-03-10m68k: Remove M5271EVB and idmr board supportMasahiro Yamada
CONFIG_SYS_HZ must be always 1000, but M5271EVB.h defines it as 1000000 and idmr.h defines it as (50000000 / 64). When compiling these two boards, a warning message is displayed: time.c:14:2: warning: #warning "CONFIG_SYS_HZ must be 1000 and should not be defined by platforms" [-Wcpp] There are no board maintainers for them so this commit just deletes them.

2014-03-04dm: Remove old driver model documentationSimon Glass
This documentation pertains to the planned implementation of driver model in U-Boot for each subsystem, but it has not been superseded. It is probably better to have this documentation in the source code for each subsystem where possible, so that docbook will pick it up. Where this does not make sense, new documentation can be placed in some suitable file in doc/driver-model. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

2014-02-26arm: Switch to -mno-unaligned-access when supported by the compilerTom Rini
When we tell the compiler to optimize for ARMv7 (and ARMv6 for that matter) it assumes a default of SCTRL.A being cleared and unaligned accesses being allowed and fast at the hardware level. We set this bit and must pass along -mno-unaligned-access so that the compiler will still breakdown accesses and not trigger a data abort. To better help understand the requirements of the project with respect to unaligned memory access, the Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt file has been added as doc/README.unaligned-memory-access.txt and is taken from the v3.14-rc1 tag of the kernel.

2014-02-25kbuild: consolidate version and timestamp headers generationMasahiro Yamada
- Generate include/generated/{timestamp.h, version.h} more simply by using filechk rule. - Add $(UBOOTRELEASE) variable and re-write u-boot.imx rule more simply. - Rename U_BOOT_VERSION in Makefile to UBOOTVERSION Before this commit, the same variable name, "U_BOOT_VERSION" was used for two different strings. One of them was defined in Makefile. It takes the form like "2014.01-rc1" and used in makefiles and script files. The other is defined in include/generated/version.h It takes the form like "U-Boot 2014.01-rc1-00010-gbe6d426-dirty" and used in C and Aseembler. It is confusing when grepping the source tree. So, this commit renames the former to UBOOTVERSION. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.m@jp.panasonic.com>

2014-02-19kbuild: use Linux Kernel build scriptsMasahiro Yamada
Now we are ready to switch over to real Kbuild. This commit disables temporary scripts: scripts/{Makefile.build.tmp, Makefile.host.tmp} and enables real Kbuild scripts: scripts/{Makefile.build,Makefile.host,Makefile.lib}. This switch is triggered by the line in scripts/Kbuild.include -build := -f $(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/)scripts/Makefile.build.tmp obj +build := -f $(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/)scripts/Makefile.build obj We need to adjust some build scripts for U-Boot. But smaller amount of modification is preferable. Additionally, we need to fix compiler flags which are locally added or removed. In Kbuild, it is not allowed to change CFLAGS locally. Instead, ccflags-y, asflags-y, cppflags-y, CFLAGS_$(basetarget).o, CFLAGS_REMOVE_$(basetarget).o are prepared for that purpose.

2014-02-19kbuild: change out-of-tree buildMasahiro Yamada
This commit changes the working directory where the build process occurs. Before this commit, build process occurred under the source tree for both in-tree and out-of-tree build. That's why we needed to add $(obj) prefix to all generated files in makefiles like follows: $(obj)u-boot.bin: $(obj)u-boot Here, $(obj) is empty for in-tree build, whereas it points to the output directory for out-of-tree build. And our old build system changes the current working directory with "make -C <sub-dir>" syntax when descending into the sub-directories. On the other hand, Kbuild uses a different idea to handle out-of-tree build and directory descending. The build process of Kbuild always occurs under the output tree. When "O=dir/to/store/output/files" is given, the build system changes the current working directory to that directory and restarts the make. Kbuild uses "make -f $(srctree)/scripts/Makefile.build obj=<sub-dir>" syntax for descending into sub-directories. (We can write it like "make $(obj)=<sub-dir>" with a shorthand.) This means the current working directory is always the top of the output directory. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.m@jp.panasonic.com> Tested-by: Gerhard Sittig <gsi@denx.de>

2014-02-07net/designware - switch driver to phylib usageAlexey Brodkin
With this change driver will benefit from existing phylib and thus custom phy functionality implemented in the driver will go away: * Instantiation of the driver is now much shorter - 2 parameters instead of 4. * Simplified phy management/functoinality in driver is replaced with rich functionality of phylib. * Support of custom phy initialization is now done with existing "board_phy_config". Note that after this change some previously used config options (driver-specific PHY configuration) will be obsolete and they are simply substituted with similar options of phylib. For example: * CONFIG_DW_AUTONEG - no need in this one. Autonegotiation is enabled by default. * CONFIG_DW_SEARCH_PHY - if one wants to specify attached phy explicitly CONFIG_PHY_ADDR board config option has to be used, otherwise automatically the first discovered on MDIO bus phy will be used I believe there's no need now in "doc/README.designware_eth" because user only needs to instantiate the driver with "designware_initialize" whose prototype exists in "include/netdev.h".
