* Fix number base handling of "load" commandWolfgang Denk2013-10-07-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As documented, almost all U-Boot commands expect numbers to be entered in hexadecimal input format. (Exception: for historical reasons, the "sleep" command takes its argument in decimal input format.) This rule was broken for the "load" command; for details please see especially commits 045fa1e "fs: add filesystem switch libary, implement ls and fsload commands" and 3f83c87 "fs: fix number base behaviour change in fatload/ext*load". In the result, the load command would always require an explicit "0x" prefix for regular (i. e. base 16 formatted) input. Change this to use the standard notation of base 16 input format. While strictly speaking this is a change of the user interface, we hope that it will not cause trouble. Stephen Warren comments (see [1]): I suppose you can change the behaviour if you want; anyone writing "0x..." for their values presumably won't be affected, and if people really do assume all values in U-Boot are in hex, presumably nobody currently relies upon using non-prefixed values with the generic load command, since it doesn't work like that right now.

* fs: rename fsload command to loadStephen Warren2012-11-04-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | When the generic filesystem load command "fsload" was written, I felt that "load" was too generic of a name for it, since many other similar commands already existed. However, it turns out that there is already an "fsload" command, so that name cannot be used. Rename the new "fsload" to plain "load" to avoid the conflict. At least anyone who's used a Basic interpreter should feel familiar with the name! Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com>
* fs: fix number base behaviour change in fatload/ext*loadStephen Warren2012-11-04-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 045fa1e "fs: add filesystem switch libary, implement ls and fsload commands" unified the implementation of fatload and ext*load with the new command fsload. However, this altered the interpretation of command-line numbers from always being base-16, to requiring a "0x" prefix for base-16 numbers. Enhance do_fsload() to allow commands to specify which base to use. Use base 0, thus requiring a "0x" prefix for the new fsload command. This feels much cleaner than assuming base 16. Use base 16 for the pre-existing fatload and ext*load to prevent a change in behaviour. Use base 16 exclusively for the loadaddr environment variable, since that variable is interpreted in multiple places, so we don't want the behaviour to change. Update command help text to make it clear where numbers are assumed to be hex, and where an explicit "0x" prefix is required.

* fs: add filesystem switch libary, implement ls and fsload commandsStephen Warren2012-10-29-0/+65
Implement "ls" and "fsload" commands that act like {fat,ext2}{ls,load}, and transparently handle either file-system. This scheme could easily be extended to other filesystem types; I only didn't do it for zfs because I don't have any filesystems of that type to test with. Replace the implementation of {fat,ext[24]}{ls,load} with this new code too. Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com>
