bootstage: Add feature to stash/unstash bootstage info

2012-10-02T22:52:40+00:00

It is useful to be able to write the bootstage information to memory for
use by a later utility, or the Linux kernel. Provide a function to do
this as well as a function to read bootstage information back and incorporate
it into the current table.

This also makes it possible for U-Boot to chain to another U-Boot and pass
on its bootstage information.

bootstage: Store boot timings in device tree

2012-10-02T20:39:33+00:00

Add an option, CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_FDT to pass boot timings to the kernel
in the device tree, if available. To use this, you must have
CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT defined.

bootstage: Add time accumulation feature

2012-10-02T20:39:33+00:00

Sometimes we want to add up the amount of time spent in a particular
activity when it is happening in a number of discrete chunks.

Add bootstage_start() to mark the start of an acitivity and
bootstage_accum() to accumulate the time since the last start. Calling
these function in pairs results in the accumulated time being collected.

bootstage: Export bootstage_add_record() function

2012-10-02T20:39:33+00:00

This function is not static, but not exported either. Add a prototype
in the header file and move the required enum to the header also.

Move bootstage timer out of lib/time.c

2012-04-10T21:35:32+00:00

The standalone example does not have get_timer() defined, so we cannot
rely on it being available.

Move the timer function into boootstage.c to avoid this problem.

This corrects a build breakage for the standalone example on some boards.

bootstage: Implement core microsecond boot time measurement

2012-03-18T20:42:14+00:00

This defines the basics of a new boot time measurement feature. This allows
logging of very accurate time measurements as the boot proceeds, by using
an available microsecond counter.

To enable the feature, define CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE in your board config file.
Also available is CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_REPORT which will cause a report to be
printed just before handing off to the OS.

Most IDs are not named at this stage. For that I would first like to
renumber them all.

Timer summary in microseconds:
       Mark    Elapsed  Stage
          0          0  reset
    205,000    205,000  board_init_f
