* Convert cmd_usage() calls in common to use a return valueSimon Glass2012-03-06-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Change all files in common/ to use CMD_RET_USAGE instead of calling cmd_usage() directly. I'm not completely sure about this patch since the code since impact is small (100 byte or so on ARM) and it might need splitting into smaller patches. But for now here it is.

* cmd_usage(): simplify return code handlingWolfgang Denk2010-07-24-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lots of code use this construct: cmd_usage(cmdtp); return 1; Change cmd_usage() let it return 1 - then we can replace all these ocurrances by return cmd_usage(cmdtp); This fixes a few places with incorrect return code handling, too.

* 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) { ...

* General help message cleanupWolfgang Denk2009-06-12-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong, but not helpful either. Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help" messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective) were actually redundant. This patch cleans this up - for example: Before: => help dtt dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat Usage: dtt - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat. After: => help dtt dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat Usage: dtt Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>
* Command usage cleanupPeter Tyser2009-01-28-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Remove command name from all command "usage" fields and update common/command.c to display "name - usage" instead of just "usage". Also remove newlines from command usage fields. Signed-off-by: Peter Tyser <ptyser@xes-inc.com>

* SPI API improvementsHaavard Skinnemoen2008-06-03-0/+37
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.
