      MIPS: Ingenic XBurst Jz4740 processor support · 80421fcc
      Xiangfu Liu authored 
      Jz4740 is a multimedia application processor targeting for mobile
devices like e-Dictionary, eBook, portable media player (PMP) and
GPS navigator.  Jz4740 is powered by Ingenic 360 MHz XBurst CPU core
(JzRISC), in which RISC/SIMD/DSP hybrid instruction set architecture
provides high integration, high performance and low power consumption.

JzRISC incorporated in Jz4740 is the advanced and power-efficient
32-bit RISC core, compatible with MIPS32, with 16K I-Cache and 16K
D-Cache, and can operate at speeds up to 400 MHz.

On-chip modules such as LCD controller, embedded audio codec, multi-
channel SAR-ADC, AC97/I2S controller and camera I/F offer a rich
suite of peripherals for multimedia application.  NAND controller
(SLC/MLC), USB (host 1.1 and device 2.0), UART, I2C, SPI, etc. are
also available.

This patch introduces XBurst CPU support in U-Boot.  It's compatible
with MIPS32, but requires a bit different cache maintenance, timer
routines, and boot mechanism using USB boot tool, so XBurst support
can go into a separate new home, cpu/xburst/.

      MIPS: Move timer code to arch/mips/cpu/$(CPU)/ · 68cebb80
      Shinya Kuribayashi authored 
      
Current timer routines (arch/mips/lib/timer.c) are implemented assuming
that MIPS32 coprocessor (CP0) resources, Counter and Compare registers
in this case, are available.  But this doesn't always work.

We need to make sure that all MIPS-based systems don't necessarily use
CP0 counter/compare registers as time keeping resources.  And some MIPS
variant processors might come with different hardware specs with genuine
MIPS32 CP0 registers.

With this change, each $(CPU)/ directory can have its own timer code.

      Switch from archive libraries to partial linking · 6d8962e8
      Sebastien Carlier authored 
      
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.

      Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated value · 25ddd1fb
      Wolfgang Denk authored 
      
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.

      Rename getenv_r() into getenv_f() · cdb74977
      Wolfgang Denk authored 
      
While running from flash, i. e. before relocation, we have only a
limited C runtime environment without writable data segment. In this
phase, some configurations (for example with environment in EEPROM)
must not use the normal getenv(), but a special function.  This
function had been called getenv_r(), with the idea that the "_r"
suffix would mean the same as in the _r_eentrant versions of some of
the C library functions (for example getdate vs. getdate_r, getgrent
vs. getgrent_r, etc.).

Unfortunately this was a misleading name, as in U-Boot the "_r"
generally means "running from RAM", i. e. _after_ relocation.

To avoid confusion, rename into getenv_f() [as "running from flash"]

      Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified. · 54841ab5
      Wolfgang Denk authored 
      
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) {
			...
