Add assert() for debug assertions

2011-09-09T22:04:01+00:00

assert() is like BUG_ON() but compiles to nothing unless DEBUG is defined.
This is useful when a condition is an error but a board reset is unlikely
to fix it, so it is better to soldier on in hope. Assertion failures should
be caught during development/test.

It turns out that assert() is defined separately in a few places in U-Boot
with various meanings. This patch cleans up some of these.

Build errors exposed by this change (and defining DEBUG) are also fixed in
this patch.

Convert ISO-8859 files to UTF-8

2011-08-04T21:34:02+00:00

There was a mix of UTF-8 and ISO-8859 files in the U-Boot source
tree, which could cause issues with the patchwork review system.
This commit converts all ISO-8859 files to UTF-8.

Constify getenv(), setenv() and hash code functions

2011-07-29T23:37:44+00:00

This is needed to get rid of build warnings like

main.c:311: warning: passing argument 2 of 'setenv' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

which result from commit 09c2e90 "unify version_string".

    panic: add noreturn attribute

I see the following warnings:

for nearly all boards. This patch fixes this warning.

unify version_string

2011-07-28T15:22:53+00:00

This patch removes the architecture specific implementation of
version_string where possible. Some architectures use a special place
and therefore we provide U_BOOT_VERSION_STRING definition and a common
weak symbol version_string.

memcpy/memmove: Do not copy to same address

2011-07-25T22:28:44+00:00

In some cases (e.g. bootm with a elf payload which is already at the right
position) there is a in place copy of data to the same address. Catching this
saves some ms while booting.

libfdt: Implement property iteration functions

2011-07-15T01:10:34+00:00

For ages, we've been talking about adding functions to libfdt to allow
iteration through properties.  So, finally, here are some.

I got bogged down on this for a long time because I didn't want to
expose offsets directly to properties to the callers.  But without
that, attempting to make reasonable iteration functions just became
horrible.  So eventually, I settled on an interface which does now
expose property offsets.  fdt_first_property_offset() and
fdt_next_property_offset() are used to step through the offsets of the
properties starting from a particularly node offset.  The details of
the property at each offset can then be retrieved with either
fdt_get_property_by_offset() or fdt_getprop_by_offset() which have
interfaces similar to fdt_get_property() and fdt_getprop()
respectively.

No explicit testcases are included, but we do use the new functions to
reimplement the existing fdt_get_property() function.

Support ePAPR compliant phandle properties

2011-07-15T01:03:53+00:00

Currently, the Linux kernel, libfdt and dtc, when using flattened
device trees encode a node's phandle into a property named
"linux,phandle".  The ePAPR specification, however - aiming as it is
to not be a Linux specific spec - requires that phandles be encoded in
a property named simply "phandle".

This patch adds support for this newer approach to dtc and libfdt.
Specifically:

	- fdt_get_phandle() will now return the correct phandle if it
          is supplied in either of these properties

	- fdt_node_offset_by_phandle() will correctly find a node with
          the given phandle encoded in either property.

	- By default, when auto-generating phandles, dtc will encode
          it into both properties for maximum compatibility.  A new -H
          option allows either only old-style or only new-style
          properties to be generated.

	- If phandle properties are explicitly supplied in the dts
	  file, dtc will not auto-generate ones in the alternate format.

	- If both properties are supplied, dtc will check that they
          have the same value.

	- Some existing testcases are updated to use a mix of old and
          new-style phandles, partially testing the changes.

	- A new phandle_format test further tests the libfdt support,
          and the -H option.
