SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style

2018-05-07T13:34:12+00:00

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

distro: use imply to enable DISTRO_DEFAULTS as SoC default

2018-04-28T14:42:35+00:00

The default of DISTRO_DEFAULTS is messy.  Using the 'imply' keyword
is equivalent and cleaner.

clang: Update documentation

2018-04-27T18:54:49+00:00

As of clang-5.0, things have changed a bit.  First, we cannot
automatically guess -target values as if we do not pass one with CC then
cc-option will fail.  Second, to disable movt/movw relocations the
argument has become -mno-movt.

Related to the target part, we cannot use arm-none-eabi as that ends up
being too generic of an ARM target for things like say rpi_3_32b to
work.

x86: Rename coreboot-x86 to coreboot

2018-04-16T14:38:53+00:00

We only use coreboot as a target on x86 platforms, since on ARM platforms
U-Boot always runs as the primary boot loader. Rename the coreboot-x86
platform to reflect this.

bootvx: x86: Prepare e820 related stuff from the given kernel memory base address

2018-04-16T08:54:51+00:00

At present two environment variables 'e820data'/'e820info' are required
to boot a VxWorks x86 kernel, but this is superfluous. The offset of
these two tables are actually at a fixed offset from the kernel memory
base address and we can provide the kernel memory base address to U-Boot
via only one variable 'vx_phys_mem_base'.

Note as it name indicates, the physical address should be provided.
