* Feature Removal: disable "mtest" command by defaultWolfgang Denk2013-03-11-0/+115
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "mtest" command is of little practical use (if any), and experience has shown that a large number of board configurations define useless or even dangerous start and end addresses. If not even the board maintainers are able to figure out which memory range can be reliably tested, how can we expect such from the end users? As this problem comes up repeatedly, we rather do not enable this command by default, so only people who know what they are doing will be confronted with it. As this changes the user interface, we allow for a grace period before this change takes effect. For now, we make "mtest" configurable through the CONFIG_CMD_MEMTEST variable, which is defined in include/config_cmd_default.h; we also add an entry to doc/feature-removal-schedule.txt which announces the removal of this default setting in two releases from now, i. e. with v2013.07.

* | powerpc/mpc8xxx: Enable entering DDR debugging by key pressYork Sun2013-01-30-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using environmental variable "ddr_interactive" to activate interactive DDR debugging seomtiems is not enough. For example, after updating SPD with a valid but wrong image, u-boot won't come up due to wrong DDR configuration. By enabling key press method, we can enter debug mode to have a chance to boot without using other tools to recover the board. CONFIG_FSL_DDR_INTERACTIVE needs to be defined in header file. To enter the debug mode by key press, press key 'd' shortly after reset, like one would do to abort auto booting. It is fixed to lower case 'd' at this moment.

CONFIG_NAND_SPL can be removed once the last mpc85xx nand_spl target is gone. CONFIG_RAMBOOT will need to remain for other use cases, but it doesn't seem right to overload it for meaning SPL as well as nand_spl does. Even if it's somewhat appropriate for the main u-boot, the SPL itself isn't (necessarily) ramboot, and we don't have separate configs for SPL and main u-boot. It was also inconsistent, as other platforms such as mpc83xx didn't use CONFIG_RAMBOOT in this way. Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com> Cc: Andy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes the FAT and ext4 filesystem implementations build if CONFIG_FS_{FAT,EXT4} are defined, rather than basing the build on whether CONFIG_CMD_{FAT,EXT*} are defined. This will allow the filesystems to be built separately from the filesystem-specific commands that use them. This paves the way for the creation of filesystem-generic commands that used the filesystems, without requiring the filesystem- specific commands. Minor documentation changes are made for this change. The new config options are automatically selected by the old config options to retain backwards-compatibility.
