* powerpc/fsl_pci: Fix device tree fixups for newer platformsKumar Gala2011-05-20-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | We assumed that only a small set of compatiable strings would be needed to find the PCIe device tree nodes to be fixed up. However on newer platforms the simple rules no longer work. We need to allow specifying the PCIe compatiable string for each individual SoC. We introduce CONFIG_SYS_FSL_PCIE_COMPAT for this purpose and set it if the default isn't sufficient. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

Set this variable to initialize the extra register. CONFIG_PL011_SERIAL_FLUSH_ON_INIT On some platforms (e.g. U8500) U-Boot is loaded by a second stage boot loader that has already initialized the UART.

* | cmd_ide: enhance new feature "CONFIG_IDE_AHB"Macpaul Lin2011-04-30-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although most IDE controller is designed to be connected to PCI bridge, there are still some IDE controller support AHB interface for SoC design. The driver implementation of these IDE-AHB controllers differ from other IDE-PCI controller, some additional registers and commands access is required during CMD/DATA I/O. Hence a configuration "CONFIG_IDE_AHB" in cmd_ide.c is required to be defined to support these kinds of SoC controllers. Such as Faraday's FTIDE020 series and Global Unichip's UINF-0301.

* | powerpc: use 'video-mode' environment variable to configure DIUTimur Tabi2011-04-28-7/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the 'video-mode' environment variable (for Freescale chips that have a DIU display controller) to designate the full video configuration. Previously, the DIU driver used the 'monitor' variable, and it was used only to determine the output video port. The old definition of the "monitor" environment variable only determines which video port to use for output. This variable was set to a number (0, 1, or sometimes 2) to specify a DVI, LVDS, or Dual-LVDS port. The resolution was hard-coded into board-specific code. The Linux command-line arguments needed to be hard-coded to the proper video definition string. Signed-off-by: Timur Tabi <timur@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de>
* common: add a grepenv commandKim Phillips2011-04-28-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | u-boot environments, esp. when boards are shared across multiple users, can get pretty large and time consuming to visually parse. The grepenv command this patch adds can be used in lieu of printenv to facilitate searching. grepenv works like printenv but limits its output only to environment strings (variable name and value pairs) that match the user specified substring. the following examples are on a board with a 5313 byte environment that spans multiple screen pages: Example 1: summarize ethernet configuration: => grepenv eth TSEC etact=FM1@DTSEC2 eth=FM1@DTSEC4 ethact=FM1@DTSEC2 eth1addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:01 eth2addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:02 eth3addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:03 eth4addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:04 eth5addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:05 eth6addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:06 eth7addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:07 eth8addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:08 eth9addr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:09 ethaddr=00:E0:0C:00:8b:00 netdev=eth0 uprcw=setenv ethact $eth;setenv filename p4080ds/R_PPSXX_0xe/rcw_0xe_2sgmii_rev2_high.bin;setenv start 0xe8000000;protect off all;run upimage;protect on all upuboot=setenv ethact $eth;setenv filename u-boot.bin;setenv start eff80000;protect off all;run upimage;protect on all upucode=setenv ethact $eth;setenv filename fsl_fman_ucode_P4080_101_6.bin;setenv start 0xef000000;protect off all;run upimage;protect on all usdboot=setenv ethact $eth;tftp 1000000 $dir/$bootfile;tftp 2000000 $dir/initramfs.cpio.gz.uboot;tftp c00000 $dir/p4080ds-usdpaa.dtb;setenv bootargs root=/dev/ram rw console=ttyS0,115200 $othbootargs;bootm 1000000 2000000 c00000; => Example 2: detect unused env vars: => grepenv etact etact=FM1@DTSEC2 => Example 3: reveal hardcoded variables; e.g., for fdtaddr: => grepenv fdtaddr fdtaddr=c00000 nfsboot=setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=$serverip:$rootpath ip=$ipaddr:$serverip:$gatewayip:$netmask:$hostname:$netdev:off console=$consoledev,$baudrate $othbootargs;tftp $loadaddr $bootfile;tftp $fdtaddr $fdtfile;bootm $loadaddr - $fdtaddr ramboot=setenv bootargs root=/dev/ram rw console=$consoledev,$baudrate $othbootargs;tftp $ramdiskaddr $ramdiskfile;tftp $loadaddr $bootfile;tftp $fdtaddr $fdtfile;bootm $loadaddr $ramdiskaddr $fdtaddr => grep $fdtaddr fdtaddr=c00000 my_boot=bootm 0x40000000 0x41000000 0x00c00000 my_dtb=tftp 0x00c00000 $prefix/p4080ds.dtb nohvboot=tftp 1000000 $dir/$bootfile;tftp 2000000 $dir/$ramdiskfile;tftp c00000 $dir/$fdtfile;setenv bootargs root=/dev/ram rw ramdisk_size=0x10000000 console=ttyS0,115200;bootm 1000000 2000000 c00000; => This patch also enables the grepenv command by default on corenet_ds based boards (and repositions the DHCP command entry to keep the list sorted).

* | Default to bootm_size() when CONFIG_SYS_BOOTMAPSZ is not definedGrant Likely2011-04-25-2/+14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a function getenv_bootm_mapsize() for obtaining the size of the early mapped region accessible by the kernel during early boot.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Moved the SRIO init out of corenet_ds and into common code for 8xxx/QorIQ processors that have SRIO. We mimic what we do with PCIe controllers for SRIO. We utilize the fact that SRIO is over serdes to determine if its configured or not and thus can setup the LAWs needed for it dynamically. We additionally update the device tree (to remove the SRIO nodes) if the board doesn't have SRIO enabled. Introduced the following standard defines for board config.h: CONFIG_SYS_SRIO - Chip has SRIO or not CONFIG_SRIO1 - Board has SRIO 1 port available CONFIG_SRIO2 - Board has SRIO 2 port available (where 'n' is the port #) CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_VIRT - virtual address in u-boot CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_PHYS - physical address (for law setup) CONFIG_SYS_SRIOn_MEM_SIZE - size of window (for law setup) [ These mimic what we have for PCI and PCIe controllers ] Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org> Acked-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>

To let the driver know which devices are 16-pin it is necessary to define CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH in your board config file. This is used to create an array of {chip, ngpio} tuples that are used to determine the width of a particular chip. For backwards compatibility it is assumed that any chip not defined in CONFIG_SYS_I2C_PCA953X_WIDTH has 8 pins.

Multi-line variables have never been formally defined, allthough there is no reason not to use them. Now we define rules how to deal with them, allowing for import and export. - Function forceenv() and the related code in saveenv() was removed. At the moment this is causing build problems for the only user of this code (schmoogie - which has no entry in MAINTAINERS); may be fixed later by implementing the "env set -f" feature. Inconsistencies: - "printenv" will '\\'-escape the '\n' in multi-line variables, while "printenv var" will not do that. ====================================================================== Advantages: - "printenv" output much better readable (sorted) - faster! - extendable (additional variable properties can be added) - new, powerful features like "factory reset" or easy switching between several different environment settings ("profiles") Disadvantages: - Image size grows by typically 5...7 KiB (might shrink a bit again on systems with redundant environment with a following patch series) ====================================================================== Implemented: - env command with subcommands: - env print [arg ...] same as "printenv": print environment - env set [-f] name [arg ...] same as "setenv": set (and delete) environment variables ["-f" - force setting even for read-only variables - not implemented yet.] - end delete [-f] name not implemented yet ["-f" - force delete even for read-only variables] - env save same as "saveenv": save environment - env export [-t | -b | -c] addr [size] export internal representation (hash table) in formats usable for persistent storage or processing: -t: export as text format; if size is given, data will be padded with '\0' bytes; if not, one terminating '\0' will be added (which is included in the "filesize" setting so you can for exmple copy this to flash and keep the termination). -b: export as binary format (name=value pairs separated by '\0', list end marked by double "\0\0") -c: export as checksum protected environment format as used for example by "saveenv" command addr: memory address where environment gets stored size: size of output buffer With "-c" and size is NOT given, then the export command will format the data as currently used for the persistent storage, i. e. it will use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE as output block size and prepend a valid CRC32 checksum and, in case of resundant environment, a "current" redundancy flag. If size is given, this value will be used instead of CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE; again, CRC32 checksum and redundancy flag will be inserted. With "-b" and "-t", always only the real data (including a terminating '\0' byte) will be written; here the optional size argument will be used to make sure not to overflow the user provided buffer; the command will abort if the size is not sufficient. Any remainign space will be '\0' padded. On successful return, the variable "filesize" will be set. Note that filesize includes the trailing/terminating '\0' byte(s). Usage szenario: create a text snapshot/backup of the current settings: => env export -t 100000 => era ${backup_addr} +${filesize} => cp.b 100000 ${backup_addr} ${filesize} Re-import this snapshot, deleting all other settings: => env import -d -t ${backup_addr} - env import [-d] [-t | -b | -c] addr [size] import external format (text or binary) into hash table, optionally deleting existing values: -d: delete existing environment before importing; otherwise overwrite / append to existion definitions -t: assume text format; either "size" must be given or the text data must be '\0' terminated -b: assume binary format ('\0' separated, "\0\0" terminated) -c: assume checksum protected environment format addr: memory address to read from size: length of input data; if missing, proper '\0' termination is mandatory - env default -f reset default environment: drop all environment settings and load default environment - env ask name [message] [size] same as "askenv": ask for environment variable - env edit name same as "editenv": edit environment variable - env run same as "run": run commands in an environment variable ====================================================================== TODO: - drop default env as implemented now; provide a text file based initialization instead (eventually using several text files to incrementally build it from common blocks) and a tool to convert it into a binary blob / object file. - It would be nice if we could add wildcard support for environment variables; this is needed for variable name auto-completion, but it would also be nice to be able to say "printenv ip*" or "printenv *addr*" - Some boards don't link any more due to the grown code size: DU405, canyonlands, sequoia, socrates. => cc: Matthias Fuchs <matthias.fuchs@esd-electronics.com>, Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>, Heiko Schocher <hs@denx.de> - Dropping forceenv() causes build problems on schmoogie => cc: Sergey Kubushyn <ksi@koi8.net> - Build tested on PPC and ARM only; runtime tested with NOR and NAND flash only => needs testing!!

* Rename getenv_r() into getenv_f()Wolfgang Denk2010-08-04-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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"] Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> Acked-by: Detlev Zundel <dzu@denx.de>
* i2c: soft_i2c: add simple GPIO implementationMike Frysinger2010-07-22-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | Since the vast majority of GPIO I2C implementations behave the same way, support the common GPIO framework with default settings. This adds two new defines CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_{SCL,SDA} so that boards which want GPIO I2C support need only define these.
