net ppc: fix ethernet device names with spaces

2010-08-09T18:52:28+00:00

since commit 1384f3bb8a4f9066805b70c1418eda78ecb73fdd ethernet names
with spaces drop a

Warning: eth device name has a space!

message. This patch fix it for:

- "FEC ETHERNET" devices found on
  mpc512x, mpc5xxx, mpc8xx and mpc8220 boards.
  renamed to "FEC".
- "SCC ETHERNET" devices found on
  mpc8xx, mpc82xx based boards. Renamed to "SCC".
- "HDLC ETHERNET" devices found on mpc8xx boards
  Renamed to "HDLC"
- "FCC ETHERNET" devices found on mpc8260 and mpc85xx based
  boards. Renamed to "FCC"

Tested on the kup4k board.

Rename getenv_r() into getenv_f()

2010-08-03T22:45:36+00:00

While running from flash, i. e. before relocation, we have only a
limited C runtime environment without writable data segment. In this
phase, some configurations (for example with environment in EEPROM)
must not use the normal getenv(), but a special function.  This
function had been called getenv_r(), with the idea that the "_r"
suffix would mean the same as in the _r_eentrant versions of some of
the C library functions (for example getdate vs. getdate_r, getgrent
vs. getgrent_r, etc.).

Unfortunately this was a misleading name, as in U-Boot the "_r"
generally means "running from RAM", i. e. _after_ relocation.

To avoid confusion, rename into getenv_f() [as "running from flash"]

i2c: soft_i2c: add simple GPIO implementation

2010-07-22T06:03:47+00:00

Since the vast majority of GPIO I2C implementations behave the same way,
support the common GPIO framework with default settings.

This adds two new defines CONFIG_SOFT_I2C_GPIO_{SCL,SDA} so that boards
which want GPIO I2C support need only define these.

The nios-32 arch is obsolete and broken. So it is removed.

nios2: fix r15 issue for gcc4

2010-05-28T14:56:03+00:00

The "-ffixed-r15" option doesn't work well for gcc4. Since we
don't use gp for small data with option "-G0", we can use gp
as global data pointer. This allows compiler to use r15. It
is necessary for gcc4 to work properly.

Program net device MAC addresses after initializing

2010-05-03T21:52:49+00:00

Add a new function to the eth_device struct for programming a network
controller's hardware address.

After all network devices have been initialized and the proper MAC address
for each has been determined, make a device driver call to program the
address into the device.  Only device instances with valid unicast addresses
will be programmed.

Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpc

2010-04-21T21:42:38+00:00

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.

Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.
