kbuild: Rename UIMAGE to MKIMAGE

2014-03-28T19:06:29+00:00

U-Boot uses the 'mkimage' tool to produce various image types,
not only uImage image type. Rename the invocation name from
UIMAGE to MKIMAGE.

The following command was used to do the replacement:
git grep 'quiet_cmd_mkimage.* = UIMAGE' | cut -d : -f 1 | \
 xargs -i sed -i "s@\(quiet_cmd_mkimage\)\(.*\) = UIMAGE @\1\2 = MKIMAGE@" {}

kbuild: rename OBJTREE to objtree

2014-03-12T21:04:58+00:00

Prior to Kbuild, $(OBJTREE) was used for pointing to the
top of build directory with absolute path.

In Kbuild style, $(objtree) is used instead.
This commit renames OBJTREE to objtree and delete the
defition of OBJTREE.

kbuild: rename SRCTREE to srctree

2014-03-12T21:04:57+00:00

Prior to Kbuild, $(TOPDIR) or $(SRCTREE) was used for
pointing to the top of source directory.
(No difference between the two.)

In Kbuild style, $(srctree) is used for instead.
This commit renames SRCTREE to srctree and deletes the
defition of SRCTREE.

Note that SRCTREE in scripts/kernel-doc, scripts/docproc.c,
doc/DocBook/Makefile should be keep.

kbuild: improve Kbuild speed

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

Kbuild brought about many advantages for us but a significant
performance regression was reported by Simon Glass.

After some discussions and analysis, it turned out
its main cause is in $(call cc-option,...).

Historically, U-Boot parses all config.mk
(arch/*/config.mk and board/*/config.mk)
every time descending into subdirectories.
That means cc-options are evaluated over and over again.

$(call cc-option,...) is useful but costly.
So we want to evaluate them only in ./Makefile
and spl/Makefile and export compiler flags.

This commit changes the build system as follows:

  - Modify scripts/Makefile.build to not include config.mk
    Instead, add $(PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS) to asflags-y, ccflags-y,
    cppflags-y.

  - Export many variables
    Going forward, Kbuild will not parse config.mk files
    when it descends into subdirectories.
    If we want to set variables in config.mk and use them
    in subdirectories, they must be exported.

    This is the list of variables to get exported:
      PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS
      CPUDIR
      BOARDDIR
      OBJCOPYFLAGS
      LDFLAGS
      LDFLAGS_FINAL
        (used in nand_spl/board/*/*/Makefile)
      CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
        (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)
      SYM_PREFIX
        (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)
      RELFLAGS
        (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)

  - Delete CPPFLAGS
    This variable has been replaced with PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS

  - Copy gcclibdir from example/standalone/Makefile
    to arch/sparc/config.mk
    The reference in CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR must be
    resolved before it is exported.

kbuild: add CONFIG_ prefix to USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC

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

Before this commit, USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC was defined in
arch-specific config.mk and referenced in
arch/$(ARCH)/lib/Makefile.

We are not happy about parsing config.mk again and again.
We have to keep the same behavior with a different way.

By adding "CONFIG_" prefix, this macro appears
in include/autoconf.mk, include/spl-autoconf.mk.
(And treating USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC as CONFIG macro
is reasonable enough.)

Tegra SoC family defined USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC as "yes"
in arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra*/config.mk,
whereas did not define it in arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra*/config.mk.

It means Tegra enables PRIVATE_LIBGCC only for SPL.
We can describe the same behavior by adding

  #ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
  # define CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC
  #endif

to include/configs/tegra-common.h.

kbuild: consolidate PLATFORM_LIBS

2014-03-04T17:15:30+00:00

We had switched to Kbuild so now we can specify
PLATFORM_LIBS/PLATFORM_LIBGCC with relative path.

kbuild: refactor more IMX image rules

2014-02-25T16:01:29+00:00

This commit avoids generating ./SPL twice.
  - Fist time descending to spl/
  - Second time as a prerequisite of u-boot-with-spl.imx,
    u-boot-with-nand-spl.imx.
