u-boot.git/arch/sandbox, branch v2013.04

Merge branch 'master' of git://git.denx.de/u-boot-arm

2013-03-18T18:37:18Z

Albert's rework of the linker scripts conflicted with Simon's making everyone use __bss_end. We also had a minor conflict over README.scrapyard being added to in mainline and enhanced in u-boot-arm/master with proper formatting. Conflicts: arch/arm/cpu/ixp/u-boot.lds arch/arm/cpu/u-boot.lds arch/arm/lib/Makefile board/actux1/u-boot.lds board/actux2/u-boot.lds board/actux3/u-boot.lds board/dvlhost/u-boot.lds board/freescale/mx31ads/u-boot.lds doc/README.scrapyard include/configs/tegra-common.h Build tested for all of ARM and run-time tested on am335x_evm.

Introduce generic link section.h symbol files

2013-03-15T20:13:58Z

We create a separate header file for link symbols defined by the link scripts. It is helpful to have these all in one place and try to make them common across architectures. Since Linux already has a similar file, we bring this in even though many of the symbols there are not relevant to us. Each architecture has its own asm/sections.h where symbols specifc to that architecture can be added. For now everything except AVR32 just includes the generic header. One change is needed in arch/avr32/lib/board.c to make this conversion work. Reviewed-by: Tom Rini (version 5) Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

Refactor linker-generated arrays

2013-03-12T22:28:40Z

Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols which were previously linker-generated are now compiler- generated. This causes relocation records of type R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as well as after. Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker- lists span possibly all target architectures, notably PowerPC.

sandbox: Add a way of obtaining directory listings

2013-03-04T19:19:56Z

This implementation uses opendir()/readdir() to access the directory information and then puts it in a linked list for the caller's use. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Tom Rini

sandbox: Add un/map_sysmen() to deal with sandbox's ram_buf

2013-03-01T03:09:22Z

Sandbox doesn't actually provide U-Boot access to the machine's physical memory. Instead it provides a RAM buffer of configurable size, and all memory accesses are within that buffer. Sandbox memory starts at 0 and is CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE bytes in size. Allowing access outside this buffer might produce unpredictable results in the event of an error, and would expose the host machine's memory architecture to the sandbox U-Boot. Most U-Boot functions assume that they can just access memory at given address. For sandbox this is not true. Add a map_sysmem() call which converts a U-Boot address to a system address. In most cases this is a NOP, but for sandbox it returns a pointer to that memory inside the RAM buffer. To get a U-Boot feature to work correctly within sandbox, you should call map_sysmem() to get a pointer to the address, and then use that address for any U-Boot memory accesses.

sandbox: Improve sandbox serial port keyboard interface

2013-03-01T03:09:21Z

Implements the tstc() interface for the serial driver. Multiplexing the console between the serial port and a keyboard uses a polling method of checking if characters are available; this means that the serial console must be non-blocking when attempting to read characters.

Add architecture-specific global data

2013-02-01T20:07:49Z

We plan to move architecture-specific data into a separate structure so that we can make the rest of it common. As a first step, create struct arch_global_data to hold these fields. Initially it is empty. This patch applies to all archs at once. I can split it if this is really a pain. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
