net: Improve the speed of netconsole

2012-09-24T18:55:43+00:00

Previously u-boot would initialize the network interface for every
network operation and then shut it down again.  This makes sense for
most operations where the network in not known to be needed soon after
the operation is complete.  In the case of netconsole, it will use the
network for every interaction with the shell or every printf.  This
means that the network is being reinitialized very often.  On many
devices, this intialization is very slow.

This patch checks for consecutive netconsole actions and leaves the
ethernet hardware initialized between them.  It will still behave the
same old way for all other network operations and any time another
network operation happens between netconsole operations.

BOOT: Add RAW ramdisk support to bootz

2012-03-30T21:00:47+00:00

This patch allows loading RAW ramdisk via bootz command. The raw ramdisk is
loaded only in case it's size is specified:

  bootz  : 

For example:

  bootz 0x42000000 0x43000000:0x12345 0x44000000

BOOT: Add "bootz" command to boot Linux zImage on ARM

2012-03-30T20:58:55+00:00

This command boots Linux zImage from where the zImage is loaded to. Passing
initrd and fdt is supported.

Tested on i.MX28 based DENX M28EVK
Tested on PXA270 based Voipac PXA270.

NOTE: This currently only supports ARM, but other architectures can be easily
added by defining bootz_setup().

bootstage: Plumb in bootstage calls for basic operations

2012-03-18T20:42:56+00:00

This inserts bootstage calls into tftp, usb start and bootm. We
could go further, but this is a reasonable start to illustrate
the concept.

bootstage: Replace show_boot_progress/error() with bootstage_...()

2012-03-18T20:41:39+00:00

These calls should not be made directly any more, since bootstage
will call the show_boot_...() functions as needed.

bootstage: Use show_boot_error() for -ve progress numbers

2012-03-18T19:56:00+00:00

Rather than the caller negating our progress numbers to indicate an
error has occurred, which seems hacky, add a function to indicate this.
