MC and debug server are not board-specific. Move reserving memory to SoC file, using the new board_reserve_ram_top function. Reduce debug server memory by 2MB to make room for secure memory.

2015-12-15common: Rewrite hiding the end of memoryYork Sun
As the name may be confusing, the CONFIG_SYS_MEM_TOP_HIDE reserves some memory from the end of ram, tracked by gd->ram_size. It is not always the top of u-boot visible memory.

2015-12-15Reserve secure memoryYork Sun
Secure memory is at the end of memory, separated and reserved from OS, tracked by gd->secure_ram. Secure memory can host MMU tables, security monitor, etc. This is different from PRAM used to reserve private memory. PRAM offers memory at the top of u-boot memory, not necessarily the real end of memory for systems with very large DDR. Using the end of memory simplifies MMU setup and avoid memory fragmentation. "bdinfo" command shows gd->secure_ram value if this memory is marked as secured. Signed-off-by: York Sun <yorksun@freescale.com>

CONFIG_CONSOLE_CURSOR, CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_BLINK_COUNT and CONFIG_CONSOLE_TIME are not used by any board. The implementation is not great and stands in the way of a refactor of i8042. Drop these for now. They can be re-introduced quite easily later, perhaps with driver-model real-time-clock (RTC) support. When reintroducing, it might be useful to make a few changes: - Blink time would be more useful than blink count - The confusing #ifdefs should be avoided - The time functions should support driver model - It would be best keyed off console_tstc() or some similar idle loop rather than a particular input driver (i8042 in this case) Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com>

2015-11-13board_init: Change the logic to setup malloc_baseFabio Estevam
Prior to commit 5ba534d247d418 ("arm: Switch 32-bit ARM to using generic global_data setup") we used to have assembly code that configured the malloc_base address. Since this commit we use the board_init_f_mem() function in C to setup malloc_base address. In board_init_f_mem() there was a deliberate choice to support only early malloc() or full malloc() in SPL, but not both. Adapt this logic to allow both to be used, one after the other, in SPL. This issue has been observed in a Congatec board, where we need to retrieve the manufacturing information from the SPI NOR (the SPI API calls malloc) prior to configuring the DRAM. In this case as malloc_base was not configured we always see malloc to fail. With this change we are able to use malloc in SPL prior to DRAM gets initialized. Also update the CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START entry in the README file. Signed-off-by: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@freescale.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

TFTP source and destination port variable names are 'tftpsrcp' and 'tftpdstp' in the code, but 'tftpsrcport' and 'tftpdstport' in the README file. Fix the README. Add environment variable 'tftptimeoutcountmax'. As per the comments about the global variable tftp_timeout_count_max, make sure tftptimeoutcountmax is nonnegative. Introduce configuration option CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS, which controls whether environment variables tftpblocksize, tftptimeout, and tftptimoueoutcountmax are read by the TFTP client code. CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS defaults to y but can be set to n by targets with to tight size contraints. Make bf527-ezkit set CONFIG_NET_TFTP_VARS to n to keep the target size below limit.

So far VxWorks bootline can be contructed from various environment variables, but when these variables do not exist we get these from corresponding config macros. This is not helpful as it requires rebuilding U-Boot, and to make sure these config macros take effect we should not have these environment variables. This is a little bit complex and confusing. Now we change the logic to always contruct the bootline from environments (the only single source), by adding two new variables "bootdev" and "othbootargs", and adding some comments about network related settings mentioning they are optional.

2015-10-11arndale: Apply Cortex-A15 errata #773022 and #774769Ian Campbell
We run 4 Arndale boards in our automated test framework, they have been running quite happily for quite some time using a Debian Wheezy userspace. However when upgrading to a Debian Jessie we started seeing frequent segmentation faults from gcc when building the kernel, to the extent that it is unable to successfully build the kernel twice in a row, and often fails on the first attempt. Searching around I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/arndale/+bug/1081417 which pointed towards http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm-arm/msg03723.html and CPU Errata 773022 and 774769. This errata needs to be applied to all processors in an SMP system, meaning that the usual strategy of applying them in arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S is not appropriate (since that applies to the boot processor only). Instead we apply these errata in the secure monitor which is code that is traversed by all processors as they are brought up. The net affect on Arndale is that ACTLR changes from 0x40 to 0x2000042. I ran 17 kernel compile iterations overnight with no segfaults. Runtime testing was done on our v2014.10 based branch and forward ported (with only minimal and trivial contextual conflicts) to current master, where it has been build tested only. I suppose in theory these errata apply to any Exynos5250 based boards, but Arndale is the only one I have access to and I have therefore chosen to be conservative and only apply it there. Also, reorder CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072 in README to make the list numerically sorted. Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com>
2015-10-02I2C: mxc_i2c: make I2C1 and I2C2 optionalAlbert ARIBAUD \\(3ADEV\\)
The driver assumed that I2C1 and I2C2 were always enabled, and if they were not, then an asynchronous abort was (silently) raised, to be caught much later on in the Linux kernel. Fix this by making I2C1 and I2C2 optional just like I2C3 and I2C4 are. To make the change binary-invariant, declare I2C1 and I2C2 in every include/configs/ file which defines CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MXC. Also, while updating README about CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MXC_I2C1 and CONFIG_SYS_I2C_MXC_I2C2, add missing descriptions for I2C4 speed (CONFIG_SYS_MXC_I2C4_SPEED) and slave (CONFIG_SYS_MXC_I2C4_SLAVE) config options.

2015-08-13ARM: Introduce erratum workaround for 801819Nishanth Menon
Add workaround for Cortex-A15 ARM erratum 801819 which says in summary that "A livelock can occur in the L2 cache arbitration that might prevent a snoop from completing. Under certain conditions this can cause the system to deadlock. " Recommended workaround is as follows: Do both of the following: 1) Do not use the write-back no-allocate memory type. 2) Do not issue write-back cacheable stores at any time when the cache is disabled (SCTLR.C=0) and the MMU is enabled (SCTLR.M=1). Because it is implementation defined whether cacheable stores update the cache when the cache is disabled it is not expected that any portable code will execute cacheable stores when the cache is disabled. For implementations of Cortex-A15 configured without the “L2 arbitration register slice” option (typically one or two core systems), you must also do the following: 3) Disable write-streaming in each CPU by setting ACTLR[28:25] = 0b1111 So, we provide an option to disable write streaming on OMAP5 and DRA7. It is a rare condition to occur and may be enabled selectively based on platform acceptance of risk. Applies to: A15 revisions r2p0, r2p1, r2p2, r2p3 or r2p4 and REVIDR[3] is set to 0. Note: certain unicore SoCs *might* not have REVIDR[3] not set, but might not meet the condition for the erratum to occur when they donot have ACP (Accelerator Coherency Port) hooked to ACE (AXI Coherency Extensions). Such SoCs will need the work around handled in the SoC specific manner, since there is no ARM generic manner to detect such configurations.

2015-07-27Reproducible U-Boot build support, using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCHPaul Kocialkowski
In order to achieve reproducible builds in U-Boot, timestamps that are defined at build-time have to be somewhat eliminated. The SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable allows setting a fixed value for those timestamps. Simply by setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to a fixed value, a number of targets can be built reproducibly.

2015-05-19console: Fix pre-console flushing via cfb_console being very slowHans de Goede
On my A10 OlinuxIno Lime I noticed a huge (5+ seconds) delay coming from console_init_r. This turns out to be caused by the preconsole buffer flushing to the cfb_console. The Lime only has a 16 bit memory bus and that is already heavy used to scan out the 1920x1080 framebuffer. The problem is that print_pre_console_buffer() was printing the buffer once character at a time and the cfb_console code then ends up doing a cache-flush for touched display lines for each character. This commit fixes this by first building a 0 terminated buffer and then printing it in one puts() call, avoiding unnecessary cache flushes. This changes the time for the flush from 5+ seconds to not noticable. The downside of this approach is that the pre-console buffer needs to fit on the stack, this is not that much to ask since we are talking about plain text here. This commit also adjusts the sunxi CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ to actually fit on the stack. Sunxi currently is the only user of the pre-console code so no other boards need to be adjusted.
