2014-07-23Add a simple malloc() implementation for pre-relocationSimon Glass
If we are to have driver model before relocation we need to support some way of calling memory allocation routines. The standard malloc() is pretty complicated: 1. It uses some BSS memory for its state, and BSS is not available before relocation 2. It supports algorithms for reducing memory fragmentation and improving performace of free(). Before relocation we could happily just not support free(). 3. It includes about 4KB of code (Thumb 2) and 1KB of data. However since this has been loaded anyway this is not really a problem. The simplest way to support pre-relocation malloc() is to reserve an area of memory and allocate it in increasing blocks as needed. This implementation does this. To enable it, you need to define the size of the malloc() pool as described in the README. It will be located above the pre-relocation stack on supported architectures. Note that this implementation is only useful on machines which have some memory available before dram_init() is called - this includes those that do no DRAM init (like tegra) and those that do it in SPL (quite a few boards). Enabling driver model preior to relocation for the rest of the boards is left for a later exercise. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

2013-01-08arm: move C runtime setup code in crt0.SAlbert ARIBAUD
Move all the C runtime setup code from every start.S in arch/arm into arch/arm/lib/crt0.S. This covers the code sequence from setting up the initial stack to calling into board_init_r(). Also, rewrite the C runtime setup and make functions board_init_*() and relocate_code() behave according to normal C semantics (no jumping across the C stack any more, etc). Some SPL targets had to be touched because they use start.S explicitly or for some reason; the relevant maintainers and custodians are cc:ed. Signed-off-by: Albert ARIBAUD <albert.u.boot@aribaud.net>

2011-01-09asm-offsets: generate bd_t sizeMike Frysinger
Some ports set up the board info structure at the same time as the global data structure, and largely keep them together. So generate a define for the board info struct too. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
2010-10-26Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated valueWolfgang Denk
CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files. Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not reliable enough. This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the asm-offsets tool. In the result, all definitions of this value can be deleted from the board config files. We have to make sure that all files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file. No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro definitions as well.

2010-10-26include/asm-offsets.h: automatically generate assembler constantsWolfgang Denk
A recurrent issue is that certain C level constructs like sizeof() or offsetof() cannot be used in assembler files, which is inconvenient when such constructs are used in the definition of macro names etc. To avoid duplication of such definitions (and thus another cause of problems), we adapt the Linux way to automatically generate the respective definitions from the respective C header files. In Linux, this is implemented in include/linux/kbuild.h, Kbuild, and arch/*/kernel/asm-offsets.c; we adapt the code from the Linux v2.6.36 kernel tree. We also copy the concept of the include/generated/ directory which can be used to hold other automatically generated files as well. We start with an architecture-independent lib/asm-offsets.c which generates include/generated/generic-asm-offsets.h (included by include/asm-offsets.h, which is what will be referred to in the actual source code). Later this may be extended by architecture-specific arch/*/lib/asm-offsets.c files that will generate a include/generated/asm-offsets.h.
