2015-08-05x86: Update README to explain booting Ubuntu on MinnowmaxSimon Glass
The steps required to boot a Linux distribution from U-Boot on x86 are not very complicated, but it is a good idea to have these written down in an accessible place. Document how to examine the boot media from U-Boot, how to load a kernel, load a ramdisk, set the kernel boot arguments and start the kernel. With these instructions Ubuntu boots mostly normally on Minnowmax. Note that the TSC timer does not operate correctly and gives warnings in the boot log. I expect that ACPI support will solve this.

2015-07-22usb: CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT prefix replacement for consistencyPaul Kocialkowski
FASTBOOT is defined both by CONFIG_USB_FUNCTION_FASTBOOT AND CONFIG_CMD_FASTBOOT, so it doesn't make much sense to have a CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT prefix for fastboot-specific options, especially given that other config options for fastboot use the CONFIG_FASTBOOT prefix. This replaces the CONFIG_USB_FASTBOOT prefix with CONFIG_FASTBOOT, for consistency. Signed-off-by: Paul Kocialkowski <contact@paulk.fr>
2015-07-22usb: Fastboot function config for better consistency with other functionsPaul Kocialkowski

2015-06-05fdt: Pass the device serial number through devicetreePaul Kocialkowski
Before device-tree, the device serial number used to be passed to the kernel using ATAGs (on ARM). This is now deprecated and all the handover to the kernel should now be done using device-tree. Thus, this passes the serial-number property to the kernel using the serial-number property of the root node, as expected by the kernel. The serial number is a string that somewhat represents the device's serial number. It might come from some form of storage (e.g. an eeprom) and be programmed at factory-time by the manufacturer or come from identification bits available in e.g. the SoC.

2015-05-15sandbox: add: sandbox PMIC device drivers: I2C emul, pmic, regulatorPrzemyslaw Marczak
This commit adds emulation of sandbox PMIC device, which includes: - PMIC I2C emulation driver - PMIC I/O driver (UCLASS_PMIC) - PMIC regulator driver (UCLASS_REGULATOR) The sandbox PMIC has 12 significant registers and 4 as padding to 16 bytes, which allows using 'i2c md' command with the default count (16). The sandbox PMIC provides regulators: - 2x BUCK - 2x LDO Each, with adjustable output: - Enable state - Voltage - Current limit (LDO1/BUCK1 only) - Operation mode (different for BUCK and LDO) Each attribute has it's own register, beside the enable state, which depends on operation mode. The header file: sandbox_pmic.h includes PMIC's default register values, which are set on i2c pmic emul driver's probe() method.
