* SPI API improvementsHaavard Skinnemoen2008-06-03-14/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch gets rid of the spi_chipsel table and adds a handful of new functions that makes the SPI layer cleaner and more flexible. Instead of the spi_chipsel table, each board that wants to use SPI gets to implement three hooks: * spi_cs_activate(): Activates the chipselect for a given slave * spi_cs_deactivate(): Deactivates the chipselect for a given slave * spi_cs_is_valid(): Determines if the given bus/chipselect combination can be activated. Not all drivers may need those extra functions however. If that's the case, the board code may just leave them out (assuming they know what the driver needs) or rely on the linker to strip them out (assuming --gc-sections is being used.) To set up communication parameters for a given slave, the driver needs to call spi_setup_slave(). This returns a pointer to an opaque spi_slave struct which must be passed as a parameter to subsequent SPI calls. This struct can be freed by calling spi_free_slave(), but most driver probably don't want to do this. Before starting one or more SPI transfers, the driver must call spi_claim_bus() to gain exclusive access to the SPI bus and initialize the hardware. When all transfers are done, the driver must call spi_release_bus() to make the bus available to others, and possibly shut down the SPI controller hardware. spi_xfer() behaves mostly the same as before, but it now takes a spi_slave parameter instead of a spi_chipsel function pointer. It also got a new parameter, flags, which is used to specify chip select behaviour. This may be extended with other flags in the future. This patch has been build-tested on all powerpc and arm boards involved. I have not tested NIOS since I don't have a toolchain for it installed, so I expect some breakage there even though I've tried fixing up everything I could find by visual inspection. I have run-time tested this on AVR32 ATNGW100 using the atmel_spi and DataFlash drivers posted as a follow-up. I'd like some help testing other boards that use the existing SPI API. But most of all, I'd like some comments on the new API. Is this stuff usable for everyone? If not, why? Changed in v4: - Build fixes for various boards, drivers and commands - Provide common struct spi_slave definition that can be extended by drivers - Pass a struct spi_slave * to spi_cs_activate and spi_cs_deactivate - Make default bus and mode build-time configurable - Override default SPI bus ID and mode on mx32ads and imx31_litekit. Changed in v3: - Add opaque struct spi_slave for controller-specific data associated with a slave. - Add spi_claim_bus() and spi_release_bus() - Add spi_free_slave() - spi_setup() is now called spi_setup_slave() and returns a struct spi_slave - soft_spi now supports four SPI modes (CPOL|CPHA) - Add bus parameter to spi_setup_slave() - Convert the new i.MX32 SPI driver - Convert the new MC13783 RTC driver Changed in v2: - Convert the mpc8xxx_spi driver and the mpc8349emds board to the new API.

* Fix linker scripts: add NOLOAD atribute to .bss/.sbss sectionsWolfgang Denk2008-01-12-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with ELDK 4.2 beta): ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab] For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above. The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in the image. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>

* board/[j-z]*: Remove lingering references to CFG_CMD_* symbols.Jon Loeliger2007-07-10-3/+3
| | | | | | | | Fixed some broken instances of "#ifdef CMD_CFG_IDE" too. Those always evaluated TRUE, and thus were always compiled even when IDE really wasn't defined/wanted. Signed-off-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@freescale.com>

* board/[k-z]*: Augment CONFIG_COMMANDS tests with defined(CONFIG_CMD_*).Jon Loeliger2007-07-04-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a compatibility step that allows both the older form and the new form to co-exist for a while until the older can be removed entirely. All transformations are of the form: Before: #if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) After: #if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) Signed-off-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@freescale.com>
* Move "ar" flags to config.mk to allow for silent "make -s"Wolfgang Denk2006-10-09-1/+1

* Add support for a saving build objects in a separate directory.Marian Balakowicz2006-09-01-9/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and support two use cases: 1) Add O= to the make command line 'make O=/tmp/build all' 2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location 'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build' 'make' The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script 'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build' './MAKEALL' Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable. When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and the object files are placed in the source directory.
