net: Remove all calls to net_random_ethaddr()

2015-05-20T16:07:27+00:00

Remove the calls to net_random_ethaddr() that some boards and some
drivers are calling. This is now implemented inside of net/eth.c

Enable the feature for all boards that previously enabled it.

net: cosmetic: Name ethaddr variables consistently

2015-04-18T17:11:32+00:00

Use "_ethaddr" at the end of variables and drop CamelCase.
Make constant values actually 'const'.

MAINTAINERS: comment out invalid maintainers

2014-09-24T22:30:28+00:00

The "S:    Orphan" in MAINTAINERS means that the maintainer in the
"M:" field is unreachable (i.e. the email address is not working).
(Refer to the definition of "Orphan" adopted in U-Boot
in the log of commit 31f1b654b2f395b69faa5d0d3c1eb0803923bd3b,
"boards.cfg: move boards with invalid emails to Orphan")

For patch files adding global changes, scripts/get_maintainer.pl
adds bunch of such invalid email addresses, which results in
tons of annoying bounce emails.

This commit can be reproduced by the following command:

find . -name MAINTAINERS | xargs sed -i -e '
/^M:[[:blank:]]/ {
      N
      /S:[[:blank:]]Orphan/s/^/#/
}

kconfig: remove redundant "string" type in arch and board Kconfigs

2014-09-13T20:43:55+00:00

Now the types of CONFIG_SYS_{ARCH, CPU, SOC, VENDOR, BOARD, CONFIG_NAME}
are specified in arch/Kconfig.

We can delete the ones in arch and board Kconfig files.

This commit can be easily reproduced by the following command:

find . -name Kconfig -a ! -path ./arch/Kconfig | xargs sed -i -e '
/config[[:space:]]SYS_\(ARCH\|CPU\|SOC\|\VENDOR\|BOARD\|CONFIG_NAME\)/ {
    N
    s/\n[[:space:]]*string//
}
'

Add board MAINTAINERS files

2014-07-30T12:48:06+00:00

We have switched to Kconfig and the boards.cfg file is going to
be removed. We have to retrieve the board status and maintainers
information from it.

The MAINTAINERS format as in Linux Kernel would be nice
because we can crib the scripts/get_maintainer.pl script.

After some discussion, we chose to put a MAINTAINERS file under each
board directory, not the top-level one because we want to collect
relevant information for a board into a single place.

TODO:
Modify get_maintainer.pl to scan multiple MAINTAINERS files.

kconfig: add board Kconfig and defconfig files

2014-07-30T12:48:01+00:00

This commit adds:
 - arch/${ARCH}/Kconfig
    provide a menu to select target boards
 - board/${VENDOR}/${BOARD}/Kconfig or board/${BOARD}/Kconfig
    set CONFIG macros to the appropriate values for each board
 - configs/${TARGET_BOARD}_defconfig
    default setting of each board

(This commit was automatically generated by a conversion script
based on boards.cfg)

In Linux Kernel, defconfig files are located under
arch/${ARCH}/configs/ directory.
It works in Linux Kernel since ARCH is always given from the
command line for cross compile.

But in U-Boot, ARCH is not given from the command line.
Which means we cannot know ARCH until the board configuration is done.
That is why all the "*_defconfig" files should be gathered into a
single directory ./configs/.

blackfin: replace bfin_gen_rand_mac() with eth_random_addr()

2014-05-12T19:19:46+00:00

bfin_gen_rand_mac() uses __DATE__ as the seed for random ethernet
address. This makes the build non-deterministic.

In the first place, it should not be implemented as a Bfin-specific
function. Use eth_random_addr() instead.

kbuild, blackfin: Add CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_LIBS_FOR_SPEED

2014-03-07T15:59:06+00:00

Many (but not all) of Blackfin boards give -O2 option
to compile under lib/ directory.
That means lib/ should be speed-optimized,
whereas other parts should be size-optimized.

We want to keep the same behavior,
but do not want to parse board/*/config.mk again and again.
We've got no choice but to invent a new method.

CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_LIBS_FOR_SPEED, if it is enabled,
gives -O2 flag only for building under lib/ directory.

Dirty codes which I had marked as "FIX ME"
in board/${BOARD}/config.mk have been deleted.
Instead, CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_LIBS_FOR_SPEED has been
defined in include/configs/${BOARD}.h.

kbuild: use Linux Kernel build scripts

2014-02-19T16:07:50+00:00

Now we are ready to switch over to real Kbuild.

This commit disables temporary scripts:
  scripts/{Makefile.build.tmp, Makefile.host.tmp}
and enables real Kbuild scripts:
  scripts/{Makefile.build,Makefile.host,Makefile.lib}.

This switch is triggered by the line in scripts/Kbuild.include
  -build := -f $(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/)scripts/Makefile.build.tmp obj
  +build := -f $(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/)scripts/Makefile.build obj

We need to adjust some build scripts for U-Boot.
But smaller amount of modification is preferable.

Additionally, we need to fix compiler flags which are
locally added or removed.

In Kbuild, it is not allowed to change CFLAGS locally.
Instead, ccflags-y, asflags-y, cppflags-y,
CFLAGS_$(basetarget).o, CFLAGS_REMOVE_$(basetarget).o
are prepared for that purpose.
