doc: Replace DocBook with sphinx-based docs

2018-07-23T18:33:21+00:00

The Linux kernel moved to sphinx-based documentation and got rid of the
DocBook based documentation quite a while ago. Hence, the DocBook
documentation for U-Boot should be converted as well.

To achieve this, import the necessary files from Linux v4.17, and
convert the current DocBook documentation (three files altogether) to
sphinx/reStructuredText.

For now, all old DocBook documentation was merged into a single
handbook, tentatively named "U-Boot Hacker Manual".

For some source files, the documentation style was changed to comply
with kernel-doc; no functional changes were applied.

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.

linker_lists: Add a function to access a linker list entry

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

Once declared, you cannot access a linker_list entry since you do not have
a symbol name for it. Add llsym() macro to provide this. This avoids
searching for the symbol at run-time based on name.

An example usage is to declare a driver with U_BOOT_DRIVER(), then obtain
a pointer to that driver later.

dm: linker_lists: Add a way to declare multiple objects

2014-10-22T16:36:53+00:00

The existing ll_entry_declare() permits a single element of the list to
be added to a linker list. Sometimes we want to add several objects at
once. To avoid lots of messy declarations, add a macro to support this.

linker_lists: include

The header file include/linker_lists.h uses __aligned();
therefore it depends on include/linux/compiler.h
