* x86: Add CBMEM console driver for corebootVadim Bendebury2012-11-30-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch builds upon the recently introduced CBMEM console feature of coreboot. CBMEM console uses a memry area allocated by coreboot to store the console output. The memory area has a certain structure, which allows to determine where the buffer is, the buffer size and the location of the pointer in the buffer. This allows different phases of the firmware (rom based coreboot, ram based coreboot, u-boot after relocation with this change) to keep adding text to the same buffer. Note that this patch introduces a new console driver and adds the driver to the list of drivers to be used for console output, i.e. it engages only after u-boot relocates. Usiong CBMEM console for capturing the pre-relocation console output will be done under a separate change. >From Linux, run the cbmem.py utility (which is a part of the coreboot package) to see the output, e.g.: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv SCSI: AHCI 0001.0300 32 slots 6 ports ?

Magic signature found Kernel command line: "cros_secure quiet loglevel=1 console=tty2... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Note that the entire u-boot output fits into the buffer only if the coreboot log level is reduced from the most verbose. Ether the buffer size will have to be increased, or the coreboot verbosity permanently reduced. Signed-off-by: Vadim Bendebury <vbendeb@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
* ARM: drop unsupported 'trab' boardWolfgang Denk2011-06-22-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The 'trab' board configuration is broken, and there is nobody who is interested and willing to fix it. Drop it. This includes support for VFD displays which have always been used by this board only. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>

* stdio/device: rework function naming conventionJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD2009-07-18-0/+126
So far the console API uses the following naming convention: ======Extract====== typedef struct device_t; int device_register (device_t * dev); int devices_init (void); int device_deregister(char *devname); struct list_head* device_get_list(void); device_t* device_get_by_name(char* name); device_t* device_clone(device_t *dev); ======= which is too generic and confusing. Instead of using device_XX and device_t we change this into stdio_XX and stdio_dev This will also allow to add later a generic device mechanism in order to have support for multiple devices and driver instances.
