2012-11-19lcd: Add CONFIG_CONSOLE_SCROLL_LINES option to speed consoleSimon Glass
When the cursor position gets to the end of the LCD console we normally scroll by one line. This adds an option to increase that value. Console scrolling is often slow, and if a large amount of output is being sent, increasing this option to 10 or so will speed things up considerably.

2012-11-19lcd: Add CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT to select frame buffer alignmentSimon Glass
The normal alignment is PAGE_SIZE, but if this is defined, we can support other alignments. The motivation for this change is to make the display section-aligned on ARM so that we can easily turn off data caching for the frame buffer region without resorting to level 2 page tables.

2012-11-12fdt: Add option to default to most compatible conf in a fit imageGabe Black
When booting a fit image with multiple configurations, the user either has to specify which configuration to use explicitly, or there has to be a default defined which is chosen automatically. This change adds an option to change that behavior so that a configuration can be selected explicitly, or the configuration which has the device tree that claims to be compatible with the earliest item in U-Boot's device tree. In other words, if U-Boot claimed to be compatible with A, B, and then C, and the configurations claimed to be compatible with A, D and B, D and D, E, the first configuration, A, D, would be chosen. Both the first and second configurations match, but the first one matches a more specific entry in U-Boot's device tree. The order in the kernel's device tree is ignored.

2012-10-29fs: separate CONFIG_FS_{FAT, EXT4} from CONFIG_CMD_{FAT, EXT*}Stephen Warren
This makes the FAT and ext4 filesystem implementations build if CONFIG_FS_{FAT,EXT4} are defined, rather than basing the build on whether CONFIG_CMD_{FAT,EXT*} are defined. This will allow the filesystems to be built separately from the filesystem-specific commands that use them. This paves the way for the creation of filesystem-generic commands that used the filesystems, without requiring the filesystem- specific commands. Minor documentation changes are made for this change. The new config options are automatically selected by the old config options to retain backwards-compatibility.

2012-10-22fs: Add a Coreboot Filesystem (CBFS) driver and commandsGabe Black
This change adds CBFS support and some commands to use it to u-boot. These commands are: cbfsinit - Initialize CBFS support and pull all metadata into RAM. The end of the ROM is an optional parameter which defaults to the standard 0xffffffff and can be used to support multiple CBFSes in a system. The last one set up with cbfsinit is the one that will be used. cbfsinfo - Print information from the CBFS header. cbfsls - Print out the size, type, and name of all the files in the current CBFS. Recognized types are translated into symbolic names. cbfsload - Load a file from CBFS into memory. Like the similar command for fat filesystems, you can optionally provide a maximum size. Support for CBFS is compiled in when the CONFIG_CMD_CBFS option is specified. The CBFS driver can also be used programmatically from within u-boot. If u-boot needs something out of CBFS very early before the heap is configured, it won't be able to use the normal CBFS support which caches some information in memory it allocates from the heap. The cbfs_file_find_uncached function searches a CBFS instance without touching the heap.

Introduce CONFIG_PCI_ENUM_ONLY variable for platforms that just want a quick enumberation of the PCI devices, but don't need any setup work done. This is very beneficial on platforms that have u-boot loaded by another boot loader which does a more sophisticated job of setup of PCI devices than u-boot. That way, u-boot can just read what's there and get on with life. This is what SeaBIOS does. Signed-off-by: Andrew Sharp <andywyse6@gmail.com>

2012-08-23powerpc/fsl-corenet: work around erratum A004510Scott Wood
Erratum A004510 says that under certain load conditions, modified cache lines can be discarded, causing data corruption. To work around this, several CCSR and DCSR register updates need to be made in a careful manner, so that there is no other transaction in corenet when the update is made. The update is made from a locked cacheline, with a delay before to flush any previous activity, and a delay after to flush the CCSR/DCSR update. We can't use a readback because that would be another corenet transaction, which is not allowed. We lock the subsequent cacheline to prevent it from being fetched while we're executing the previous cacheline. It is filled with nops so that a branch doesn't cause us to fetch another cacheline. Ordinarily we are running in a cache-inhibited mapping at this point, so we temporarily change that. We make it guarded so that we should never see a speculative load, and we never do an explicit load. Thus, only the I-cache should ever fill from this mapping, and we flush/unlock it afterward. Thus we should avoid problems from any potential cache aliasing between inhibited and non-inhibited mappings. NOTE that if PAMU is used with this patch, it will need to use a dedicated LAW as described in the erratum. This is the responsibility of the OS that sets up PAMU.

2012-04-24powerpc/corenet_ds: Slave reads ENV from master when boot from SRIOLiu Gang
When boot from SRIO, slave's ENV can be stored in master's memory space, then slave can fetch the ENV through SRIO interface. NOTE: Because the slave can not erase, write master's NOR flash by SRIO interface, so it can not modify the ENV parameters stored in master's NOR flash using "saveenv" or other commands. Master needs to: 1. Put the slave's ENV into it's own memory space. 2. Set an inbound SRIO window covered slave's ENV stored in master's memory space. Slave needs to: 1. Set a specific TLB entry in order to fetch ucode and ENV from master. 2. Set a LAW entry with the TargetID SRIO1 or SRIO2 for ucode and ENV.

For the powerpc processors with SRIO interface, boot location can be configured from SRIO1 or SRIO2 by RCW. The processor booting from SRIO can do without flash for u-boot image. The image can be fetched from another processor's memory space by SRIO link connected between them. The processor boots from SRIO is slave, the processor boots from normal flash memory space and can help slave to boot from its memory space is master. They are different environments and requirements: master: 1. NOR flash for its own u-boot image, ucode and ENV space. 2. Slave's u-boot image in master NOR flash. 3. Normally boot from local NOR flash. 4. Configure SRIO switch system if needed. slave: 1. Just has EEPROM for RCW. No flash for u-boot image, ucode and ENV. 2. Boot location should be set to SRIO1 or SRIO2 by RCW. 3. RCW should configure the SerDes, SRIO interfaces correctly. 4. Slave must be powered on after master's boot. 5. Must define CONFIG_SYS_QE_FMAN_FW_IN_REMOTE because of no ucode locally. For the slave module, need to finish these processes: 1. Set the boot location to SRIO1 or SRIO2 by RCW. 2. Set a specific TLB entry for the boot process. 3. Set a LAW entry with the TargetID SRIO1 or SRIO2 for the boot. 4. Slave's u-boot image should be generated specifically by make xxxx_SRIOBOOT_SLAVE_config. This will set SYS_TEXT_BASE=0xFFF80000 and other configurations.
