* arm: move gd handling outside of C codeAlbert ARIBAUD2016-01-13-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of gcc 5.2.1 for Thumb-1, it is not possible any more to assign gd from C code, as gd is mapped to r9, and r9 may now be saved in the prolog sequence, and restored in the epilog sequence, of any C functions. Therefore arch_setup_gd(), which is supposed to set r9, may actually have no effect, causing U-Boot to use a bad address to access GD. Fix this by never calling arch_setup_gd() for ARM, and instead setting r9 in arch/arm/lib/crt0.S, to the value returned by board_init_f_alloc_reserve().

* Fix board init code to respect the C runtime environmentAlbert ARIBAUD2016-01-13-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | board_init_f_mem() alters the C runtime environment's stack it is actually already using. This is not a valid behaviour within a C runtime environment. Split board_init_f_mem into C functions which do not alter their own stack and always behave properly with respect to their C runtime environment.

* arm: Switch 32-bit ARM to using generic global_data setupSimon Glass2015-10-24-24/+4
| | | | | | | | | | There is quite a bit of assembler code that can be removed if we use the generic global_data setup. Less arch-specific code makes it easier to add new features and maintain the start-up code. Drop the unneeded code and adjust the hooks in board_f.c to cope.

* arm: relocation: clear .bss section with arch memset if definedPrzemyslaw Marczak2015-03-09-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For ARM architecture, enable the CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET/MEMCPY, will highly increase the memset/memcpy performance. This is able thanks to the ARM multiple register instructions. Unfortunatelly the relocation is done without the cache enabled, so it takes some time, but zeroing the BSS memory takes much more longer, especially for the configs with big static buffers. A quick test confirms, that the boot time improvement after using the arch memcpy for relocation has no significant meaning. The same test confirms that enable the memset for zeroing BSS, reduces the boot time. So this patch enables the arch memset for zeroing the BSS after the relocation process. For ARM boards, this can be enabled in board configs by defining: 'CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMSET'. This was tested on Trats2. A quick test with trace. Boot time from start to main_loop() entry: - ~1384ms - before this change - ~888ms - after this change Signed-off-by: Przemyslaw Marczak <p.marczak@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Cc: Albert Aribaud <albert.u.boot@aribaud.net> Cc: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>
* arm: spl: Allow board_init_r() to run with a larger stackSimon Glass2015-03-04-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At present SPL uses a single stack, either CONFIG_SPL_STACK or CONFIG_SYS_INIT_SP_ADDR. Since some SPL features (such as MMC and environment) require a lot of stack, some boards set CONFIG_SPL_STACK to point into SDRAM. They then set up SDRAM very early, before board_init_f(), so that the larger stack can be used. This is an abuse of lowlevel_init(). That function should only be used for essential start-up code which cannot be delayed. An example of a valid use is when only part of the SPL code is visible/executable, and the SoC must be set up so that board_init_f() can be reached. It should not be used for SDRAM init, console init, etc. Add a CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R option, which allows the stack to be moved to a new address before board_init_r() is called in SPL. The expected SPL flow (for CONFIG_SPL_FRAMEWORK) is documented in the README.

| * imx: fix exception vectors relocation in imx27Albert ARIBAUD2014-11-20-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3ff46cc4 fixed exception vectors setting in the general ARM case, by either copying the exception and indirect vector tables to normal (0x00000000) or high (0xFFFF0000) vectors address, or setting VBAR to U-Boot's base if applicable. i.MX27 SoC is ARM926E-JS, thus has only normal and high options, but does not provide RAM at 0xFFFF0000 and has only ROM at 0x00000000; it is therefore not possible to move or change its exception vectors. Besides, i.MX27 ROM code does provide an indirect vectors table but at a non-standard address and with the reset and reserved vectors missing. Turn the current vector relocation code into a weak routine called after relocate_code from crt0, and add strong version for i.MX27.

* arm: Set up global data before board_init_f()Simon Glass2014-08-04-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At present arm defines CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA, meaning that the global_data pointer is set up in board_init_f(). However it is actually set up before this, it just isn't zeroed. If we zero the global data before calling board_init_f() then we don't need to define CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA. Make this change (on arm32 only) to simplify the init process. I don't have the ability to test aarch64 yet. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Acked-by: Tom Rini <trini@ti.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* arm: move C runtime setup code in crt0.SAlbert ARIBAUD2013-01-08-0/+173
Move all the C runtime setup code from every start.S in arch/arm into arch/arm/lib/crt0.S. This covers the code sequence from setting up the initial stack to calling into board_init_r(). Also, rewrite the C runtime setup and make functions board_init_*() and relocate_code() behave according to normal C semantics (no jumping across the C stack any more, etc). Some SPL targets had to be touched because they use start.S explicitly or for some reason; the relevant maintainers and custodians are cc:ed. Signed-off-by: Albert ARIBAUD <albert.u.boot@aribaud.net>
