* arch/powerpc/*/config.mk: make CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT settings workWolfgang Denk2010-11-26-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As we try to get rid of board specific config.mk files we must provide a way for board specific settings of the LDSCRIPT variable (path to the linker script) where needed. We now implement the following hierarchy: - Highest priority has a "#define CONFIG_SYS_LDCONFIG" in the board config file. - If CONFIG_SYS_LDCONFIG is not set, and the system is booting from NAND (CONFIG_NAND_SPL is set), then a board specific linker script board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds gets used. - If we are not booting from NAND, we test if a processor specific linker script arch/powerpc/cpu/$(CPU)/u-boot.lds exists; if so we use that. - As default, arch/powerpc/config.mk gets used.

* Switch from archive libraries to partial linkingSebastien Carlier2010-11-17-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Sebastien Carlier <sebastien.carlier@gmail.com>
* PowerPC: Don't destroy fixup table while doing fixupsJoakim Tjernlund2010-11-14-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | The fixup procedure just stored a constant value in the fixup table rather than just adjusting the table. Although that doesn't seem to do any harm, it prevents relocation more that once. Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@transmode.se>
* Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated valueWolfgang Denk2010-10-26-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* powerpc: do not fixup NULL ptrsJoakim Tjernlund2010-10-18-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fixup routine must not fixup NULL pointers. Problem can be seen by char *testfun(void) __attribute__((weak)); char *(*myfun)(void) = testfun; Then add printf("myfun:%p, &myfun:%p\n", myfun, &myfun); before relocation and after relocation. myfun should be NULL in both cases but it is not.

* powerpc: Cleanup BOOTFLAG_* referencesPeter Tyser2010-10-18-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Now that warm booting is not supported, there isn't a need for the BOOTFLAG_COLD and BOOTFLAG_WARM defines, so remove them. Note that this change makes the board info bd_bootflags field useless. It will always be set to 0, but we leave it around so that we don't break the board info structure that some OSes are expecting to be passed from U-Boot.

* Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.Wolfgang Denk2010-07-04-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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) { ...

* Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpcStefan Roese2010-04-21-0/+3800
As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to better match the Linux directory structure. Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc" is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with scripts using this name.
