2013-06-26cmd_bootm: Add command line arguments to Plan 9Steven Stallion
This patch introduces support for command line arguments to Plan 9. Plan 9 generally dedicates a small region of kernel memory (known as CONFADDR) for runtime configuration. A new environment variable named confaddr was introduced to indicate this location when copying arguments.

2013-06-26Add verified boot information and testSimon Glass
Add a description of how to implement verified boot using signed FIT images, and a simple test which verifies operation on sandbox. The test signs a FIT image and verifies it, then signs a FIT configuration and verifies it. Then it corrupts the signature to check that this is detected. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2013-06-26image: Add support for signing of FIT configurationsSimon Glass
While signing images is useful, it does not provide complete protection against several types of attack. For example, it it possible to create a FIT with the same signed images, but with the configuration changed such that a different one is selected (mix and match attack). It is also possible to substitute a signed image from an older FIT version into a newer FIT (roll-back attack). Add support for signing of FIT configurations using the libfdt's region support. Please see doc/uImage.FIT/signature.txt for more information. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2013-06-26mkimage: Add -r option to specify keys that must be verifiedSimon Glass
Normally, multiple public keys can be provided and U-Boot is not required to use all of them for verification. This is because some images may not be signed, or may be optionally signed. But we still need a mechanism to determine when a key must be used. This feature cannot be implemented in the FIT itself, since anyone could change it to mark a key as optional. The requirement for key verification must go in with the public keys, in a place that is protected from modification. Add a -r option which tells mkimage to mark all keys that it uses for signing as 'required'. If some keys are optional and some are required, run mkimage several times (perhaps with different key directories if some keys are very secret) using the -F flag to update an existing FIT.

2013-06-26mkimage: Add -c option to specify a comment for key signingSimon Glass
When signing an image, it is useful to add some details about which tool or person is authorising the signing. Add a comment field which can take care of miscellaneous requirements. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de>
2013-06-26mkimage: Add -F option to modify an existing .fit fileSimon Glass
When signing images it is sometimes necessary to sign with different keys at different times, or make the signer entirely separate from the FIT creation to avoid needing the private keys to be publicly available in the system. Add a -F option so that key signing can be a separate step, and possibly done multiple times as different keys are avaiable.

2013-06-26mkimage: Add -K to write public keys to an FDT blobSimon Glass
FIT image verification requires public keys. Add a convenient option to mkimage to write the public keys to an FDT blob when it uses then for signing an image. This allows us to use: mkimage -f test.its -K dest.dtb -k keys test.fit and have the signatures written to test.fit and the corresponding public keys written to dest.dtb. Then dest.dtb can be used as the control FDT for U-Boot (CONFIG_OF_CONTROL), thus providing U-Boot with access to the public keys it needs.

2013-06-26mkimage: Add -k option to specify key directorySimon Glass

2013-06-05lcd: add functions to set up simplefb device treeStephen Warren
simple-framebuffer is a new device tree binding that describes a pre- configured frame-buffer memory region and its format. The Linux kernel contains a driver that supports this binding. Implement functions to create a DT node (or fill in an existing node) with parameters that describe the framebuffer format that U-Boot is using. This will be immediately used by the Raspberry Pi board in U-Boot, and likely will be used by the Samsung ARM ChromeBook support soon too. It could well be used by many other boards (e.g. Tegra boards with built-in LCD panels, which aren't yet supported by the Linux kernel).

2013-05-10ARM: OMAP5: Fix warm reset with USB cable connectedLokesh Vutla
Warm reset on OMAP5 freezes when USB cable is connected. Fix requires PRM_RSTTIME.RSTTIME1 to be programmed with the time for which reset should be held low for the voltages and the oscillator to reach stable state. There are 3 parameters to be considered for calculating the time, which are mostly board and PMIC dependent. -1- Time taken by the Oscillator to shut + restart -2- PMIC OTP times -3- Voltage rail ramp times, which inturn depends on the PMIC slew rate and value of the voltage ramp needed. In order to keep the code in u-boot simple, have a way for boards to specify a pre computed time directly using the 'CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC' option. If boards fail to specify the time, use a default as specified by 'CONFIG_DEFAULT_OMAP_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC' instead. Using the default value translates into some ~22ms and should work in all cases. However in order to avoid this large delay hiding other bugs, its recommended that all boards look at their respective data sheets and specify a pre computed and optimal value using 'CONFIG_OMAP_PLATFORM_RESET_TIME_MAX_USEC' In order to help future board additions to compute this config option value, add a README at doc/README.omap-reset-time which explains how to compute the value. Also update the toplevel README with the additional option and pointers to doc/README.omap-reset-time.

2013-05-01sandbox: Add CONFIG_OF_HOSTFILE to read FDT from host fileSimon Glass
