92d5ecba47 arm: implement ELF relocations
ELF relocation tables generated with linker option -pie can
be used to fixup code and data in a single loop at relocation,
removing the need for manual fixups anywhere else in the code.

7b37a27e14 davinci_emac: davinci_eth_set_mac_addr to ->write_hwaddr
This patch proposes to migrate the davinci_emac driver to using the
eth_device->write_hwaddr function pointer as suggested by Ben Warren.

All the davinci boards had the behaviour, prior to this patch, of
sync'ing the environment variable enetaddr with the MAC address read
from non-volatile storage on boot -- when the two locations disagreed,
the environment variable value took precendence. This patch keeps the
same behaviour but lets eth_initialize take care of it.

This patch refactors davinci_emac setup in the boards so that the MAC
address is read from non-volatile storage into the environment variable
and then the environment variable value is use in eth_intialize. The
only exception is the direct call to davinci_eth_set_mac_addr made by
the da830evm board init which was changed into an assignment of the
enetaddr field.

f1d2b313c9 ARM: add relocation support
!! This breaks support for all arm boards !!

To compile in old style, you must define
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC or you can compile
with "CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC=1 ./MAKEALL board"

!! This define will be removed soon, so convert your
board to use relocation support

7e4a9e6dc8 ARM (ARM11): add data cache support, test on Qong board
Add data cache support for arm1136 systems.

Enable "cache" command on Qong board and test performance.

    Test 1: Loading 127 MB of data from NAND flash into RAM:

    Instr. Cache	off	on	on
      Data Cache	off	off	on
    --------------------------------------------------
    QONG (ARM11)	177s	95s	43s	= x 4.1

    Test 2: uncompressing a gzipped image from RAM to RAM
            (size compressed: 6.5 MiB, uncompressed: 35 MiB):

    Instr. Cache	off	on	on
      Data Cache	off	off	on
    --------------------------------------------------
    QONG (ARM11)	1.54s	0.95s	0.18s	= x 8.6

880eff5cfb ARM: cp15: setup mmu and enable dcache
This has been tested on at91sam9263 and STN8815.
Again, I didn't check if it has bad effects
on non-arm926 cores.

Initially I had a "done" bit to only set up page tables
at the beginning. However, since the aligmnent requirement
was for the whole object file, this extra integer tool 16kB
in BSS, so I chose to remove it.

Also, note not all boards use PHYS_SDRAM, but it looks like
it's the most used name (more than CONFIG_SYS_DRAM_BASE for
example).

cdb749778a Rename getenv_r() into getenv_f()
While running from flash, i. e. before relocation, we have only a
limited C runtime environment without writable data segment. In this
phase, some configurations (for example with environment in EEPROM)
must not use the normal getenv(), but a special function.  This
function had been called getenv_r(), with the idea that the "_r"
suffix would mean the same as in the _r_eentrant versions of some of
the C library functions (for example getdate vs. getdate_r, getgrent
vs. getgrent_r, etc.).

Unfortunately this was a misleading name, as in U-Boot the "_r"
generally means "running from RAM", i. e. _after_ relocation.

To avoid confusion, rename into getenv_f() [as "running from flash"]

54841ab50c Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.
The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands.  Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".

This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:

int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */	while (*++*argv) {
			switch (**argv) {
			case 'd':
				debug++;
				break;
			...
			default:
				usage ();
			}
		}
	}
	...
}

The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell.  With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
	error: increment of read-only location '*argv'

N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:

	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
		char *arg = *argv;
		while (*++arg) {
			switch (*arg) {
			...

ea0364f1bb Move lib_$ARCH directories to arch/$ARCH/lib
