* arm: implement ELF relocationsAlbert Aribaud2010-10-13-3/+5
| | | | | | | | ELF relocation tables generated with linker option -pie can be used to fixup code and data in a single loop at relocation, removing the need for manual fixups anywhere else in the code. Signed-off-by: Albert Aribaud <albert.aribaud@free.fr>
* ARM: add relocation supportHeiko Schocher2010-09-19-5/+519
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | !! This breaks support for all arm boards !! To compile in old style, you must define CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC or you can compile with "CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC=1 ./MAKEALL board" !! This define will be removed soon, so convert your board to use relocation support Portions of this work were supported by funding from the CE Linux Forum.

* ARM V7 (OMAP): add data cache support, test on Beagle boardHeiko Schocher2010-09-19-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add data cache support for ARM V7 systems. Used cache flush functions from linux:arch/arm/mm/cache-v7.S developed from Catalin Marinas.

* ARM: cp15: setup mmu and enable dcacheHeiko Schocher2010-09-19-0/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This has been tested on at91sam9263 and STN8815. Again, I didn't check if it has bad effects on non-arm926 cores. Initially I had a "done" bit to only set up page tables at the beginning. However, since the aligmnent requirement was for the whole object file, this extra integer tool 16kB in BSS, so I chose to remove it. Also, note not all boards use PHYS_SDRAM, but it looks like it's the most used name (more than CONFIG_SYS_DRAM_BASE for example).

* 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>
* Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.Wolfgang Denk2010-07-04-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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) { ...
