x86: ifdtool: Add support for early microcode access

2014-12-19T00:26:05+00:00

Some Intel CPUs use an 'FSP' binary blob which provides an inflexible
means of starting up the CPU. One result is that microcode updates can only
be done before RAM is available and therefore parsing of the device tree
is impracticle.

Worse, the addess of the microcode update must be stored in ROM since a
pointer to its start address and size is passed to the 'FSP' blob. It is
not possible to perform any calculations to obtain the address and size.

To work around this, ifdtool is enhanced to work out the address and size of
the first microcode update it finds in the supplied device tree. It then
writes these into the correct place in the ROM. U-Boot can then start up
the FSP correctly.

x86: Add ifdtool for working with Intel Flash Descriptor ROM images

2014-11-21T06:24:11+00:00

Newer Intel chips require a Management Engine which requires a particular
format for the SPI flash that contains the boot loader. Add a tool that
supports creating and modifying these ROM images.

This tool is from Chrome OS but has been cleaned up to use U-Boot style
and to add comments. A few features have been added also.

kbuild: sync top Makefile with Linux 3.18-rc1

2014-11-07T21:27:06+00:00

Since Linux 3.15, relative path feature and related fixes,
cleanups have been merged to the top Makefile.

The relative path feature looks stable enough, so let's import it
to U-Boot along with various cleanups.

Commits imported from Linux (some need adjustment) are:

[1] commit 7e1c04779efd by Michal Marek
  kbuild: Use relative path for $(objtree)

[2] commit 890676c65d69 by Michal Marek
  kbuild: Use relative path when building in the source tree

[3] commit 9da0763bdd82 by Michal Marek
  kbuild: Use relative path when building in a subdir of the source tree

[4] commit c2e28dc975ea by Michal Marek
  kbuild: Print the name of the build directory

[5] commit 066b7ed95580 by Michal Marek
  kbuild: Do not print the build directory with make -s

[6] commit 3f1d9a6cec01 by Michal Marek
  kbuild: make -s should be used with kernelrelease/kernelversion/image_name

[7] commit 7ff525712acf by Masahiro Yamada
  kbuild: fake the "Entering directory ..." message more simply

[8] commit 745a254322c8 by Masahiro Yamada
  kbuild: use $(Q) for sub-make target

[9] commit aa55c8e2f7a3 by Masahiro Yamada
  kbuild: handle C=... and M=... after entering into build directory

[10] commit ab7474ea5361 by Borislav Petkov
  Kbuild: Ignore GREP_OPTIONS env variable

To use relative path feature, tools/Makefile and scripts/Makefile.autoconf
must be tweaked.

tools: socfpga: Add socfpga preloader signing to mkimage

2014-10-06T15:38:17+00:00

Like many platforms, the Altera socfpga platform requires that the
preloader be "signed" in a certain way or the built-in boot ROM will
not boot the code.

This change automatically creates an appropriately signed preloader
from an SPL image.

The signed image includes a CRC which must, of course, be generated
with a CRC generator that the SoCFPGA boot ROM agrees with otherwise
the boot ROM will reject the image.

Unfortunately the CRC used in this boot ROM is not the same as the
Adler CRC in lib/crc32.c. Indeed the Adler code is not technically a
CRC but is more correctly described as a checksum.

Thus, the appropriate CRC generator is added to lib/ as crc32_alt.c.

kconfig: switch to Kconfig

2014-07-30T12:48:03+00:00

This commit enables Kconfig.
Going forward, we use Kconfig for the board configuration.
mkconfig will never be used. Nor will include/config.mk be generated.

Kconfig must be adjusted for U-Boot because our situation is
a little more complicated than Linux Kernel.
We have to generate multiple boot images (Normal, SPL, TPL)
from one source tree.
Each image needs its own configuration input.

Usage:

Run "make _defconfig" to do the board configuration.

It will create the .config file and additionally spl/.config, tpl/.config
if SPL, TPL is enabled, respectively.

You can use "make config", "make menuconfig" etc. to create
a new .config or modify the existing one.

Use "make spl/config", "make spl/menuconfig" etc. for spl/.config
and do likewise for tpl/.config file.

The generic syntax of configuration targets for SPL, TPL is:

  /

Here,  is either 'spl' or 'tpl'
       is 'config', 'menuconfig', 'xconfig', etc.

When the configuration is done, run "make".
(Or "make _defconfig all" will do the configuration and build
in one time.)

For futher information of how Kconfig works in U-Boot,
please read the comment block of scripts/multiconfig.py.

By the way, there is another item worth remarking here:
coexistence of Kconfig and board herder files.

Prior to Kconfig, we used C headers to define a set of configs.

We expect a very long term to migrate from C headers to Kconfig.
Two different infractructure must coexist in the interim.

In our former configuration scheme, include/autoconf.mk was generated
for use in makefiles.
It is still generated under include/, spl/include/, tpl/include/ directory
for the Normal, SPL, TPL image, respectively.

lib, fdt: move fdtdec_get_int() out of lib/fdtdec.c

2014-06-23T13:11:30+00:00

move fdtdec_get_int() out of lib/fdtdec.c into lib/fdtdec_common.c
as this function is also used, if CONFIG_OF_CONTROL is not
used. Poped up on the ids8313 board using signed FIT images,
and activating CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD. Without this patch
it shows on boot:

No valid FDT found - please append one to U-Boot binary, use u-boot-dtb.bin or define CONFIG_OF_EMBED. For sandbox, use -d 

With this patch, it boots again with CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD
enabled.

includes: move openssl headers to include/u-boot

2014-06-19T15:19:04+00:00

commit 18b06652cd "tools: include u-boot version of sha256.h"
unconditionally forced the sha256.h from u-boot to be used
for tools instead of the host version. This is fragile though
as it will also include the host version. Therefore move it
to include/u-boot to join u-boot/md5.h etc which were renamed
for the same reason.

kbuild: remove unnecessary adjustment for Cygwin

2014-06-11T20:27:05+00:00

"SFX = .exe" was originally added for Cygwin environment.

It is true that GCC on Cygwin spits executables with .exe extention.

For example,

  gcc -o foo foo.c

will generate "foo.exe", not "foo".

But GNU make is also nicely adjusted for Cygwin.

For example,

  foo: foo.c
          gcc -o $@ $<

will compare the timestamp between "foo.exe" and "foo.c".

You do not have to tweak Makefiles like this:

  foo$(SFX): foo.c
          gcc -o $@ $<

And "make clean" works as well without adjustment for Cygwin because
the command "rm foo" on Cygwin will delete both "foo" and "foo.exe".

In conclusion, makefiles do not need special care for Cygwin.
