These functions are useful in U-Boot because they allow a graceful failure
rather than an unpredictable stack overflow when printf() buffers are
exceeded.
Mostly copied from the Linux kernel. I copied vscnprintf and
scnprintf so we can change printf and vprintf to use the safe
implementation but still return the correct values.

This library provides useful functions to drivers which want to use
the fdt to control their operation. Functions are provided to:
- look up and enumerate a device type (for example assigning i2c bus 0,
i2c bus 1, etc.)
- decode basic types from the fdt, like addresses and integers
While this library is not strictly necessary, it helps to minimise the
changes to a driver, in order to make it work under fdt control. Less
code is required, and so the barrier to switch drivers over is lower.
Additional functions to read arrays and GPIOs could be made available
here also.

If compressed data is located in sectors at the end of the flash and
it's offset + input stream size > 0xFFFFFFFF, the uncompressing time
is very long, since processing of the stream is done bytewise (and
not blockwise) due to overflow in inflate_fast() while calculation
and checking for enough input available.
Check for this overflow condition and limit the available stream
input size to the actually max. possible input size. This fixes
the problem.
The issue is easily reproduceable by placing a gziped bitmap in flash,
e.g. at FFF80000, and running 'bmp' commands like 'bmp info FFF80000'
or 'bmp display FFF80000'. The uncompressing can take up to 3 sec.
whereas it should normaly take a fraction of a second. If the
'splashimage' environment variable points to this address, the
booting time also increases significantly.

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

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.

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.

While looking to upgrade to zlib-1.2.5, the current mondo merge of
multiple files into a single was making things way more difficult
than it should have been. Hard to pick out what has been changed
to port it to U-Boot, been removed as useless, and bug fixes added
after the fact.
So split the single file up into the original file names, and merge
non-essential changes back from the original tree (for some reason,
style in code in a bunch of places was changed to U-Boot style even
though this isn't "U-Boot" code).
The original build style is retained -- we have a single zlib.c that
includes all the other files, and that is the only file we compile.

u-boot environments, esp. when boards are shared across multiple

pairs) that match the user specified substring.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

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

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.

This patch adds a new config parameter for adjusting the calculation of
hash table size when importing a buffer.
When importing a extremely small buffer (e.g. the default_environment)
the old calculation generated a hash table which could hold at most the
buffer content but no more entires.
The new calculation add a fixed number of entries to the result to fit
better for small import buffers. This amount may be configured by the
user in board file to adjust the behaviour.

Motivation:
* Old environment code used a pessimizing implementation:
- variable lookup used linear search => slow
- changed/added variables were added at the end, i. e. most
frequently used variables had the slowest access times => slow
- each setenv() would calculate the CRC32 checksum over the whole
environment block => slow
* "redundant" envrionment was locked down to two copies
* No easy way to implement features like "reset to factory defaults",
or to select one out of several pre-defined (previously saved) sets
of environment settings ("profiles")
* No easy way to import or export environment settings
======================================================================
API Changes:
- Variable names starting with '#' are no longer allowed
I didn't find any such variable names being used; it is highly
recommended to follow standard conventions and start variable names
with an alphanumeric character
- "printenv" will now print a backslash at the end of all but the last
lines of a multi-line variable value.
Multi-line variables have never been formally defined, allthough
there is no reason not to use them. Now we define rules how to deal
with them, allowing for import and export.
- Function forceenv() and the related code in saveenv() was removed.
At the moment this is causing build problems for the only user of
this code (schmoogie - which has no entry in MAINTAINERS); may be
fixed later by implementing the "env set -f" feature.
Inconsistencies:
- "printenv" will '\\'-escape the '\n' in multi-line variables, while
"printenv var" will not do that.
======================================================================
Advantages:
- "printenv" output much better readable (sorted)
- faster!
- extendable (additional variable properties can be added)
- new, powerful features like "factory reset" or easy switching
between several different environment settings ("profiles")
Disadvantages:
- Image size grows by typically 5...7 KiB (might shrink a bit again on
systems with redundant environment with a following patch series)
======================================================================
Implemented:
- env command with subcommands:
- env print [arg ...]
same as "printenv": print environment
- env set [-f] name [arg ...]
same as "setenv": set (and delete) environment variables
["-f" - force setting even for read-only variables - not
implemented yet.]
- end delete [-f] name
not implemented yet
["-f" - force delete even for read-only variables]
- env save
same as "saveenv": save environment
- env export [-t | -b | -c] addr [size]
export internal representation (hash table) in formats usable for
persistent storage or processing:
-t: export as text format; if size is given, data will be
padded with '\0' bytes; if not, one terminating '\0'
will be added (which is included in the "filesize"
setting so you can for exmple copy this to flash and
keep the termination).
-b: export as binary format (name=value pairs separated by
'\0', list end marked by double "\0\0")
-c: export as checksum protected environment format as
used for example by "saveenv" command
addr: memory address where environment gets stored
size: size of output buffer
With "-c" and size is NOT given, then the export command will
format the data as currently used for the persistent storage,
i. e. it will use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE as output block size and
prepend a valid CRC32 checksum and, in case of resundant
environment, a "current" redundancy flag. If size is given, this
value will be used instead of CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE; again, CRC32
checksum and redundancy flag will be inserted.
With "-b" and "-t", always only the real data (including a
terminating '\0' byte) will be written; here the optional size
argument will be used to make sure not to overflow the user
provided buffer; the command will abort if the size is not
sufficient. Any remainign space will be '\0' padded.
On successful return, the variable "filesize" will be set.
Note that filesize includes the trailing/terminating '\0'
byte(s).
Usage szenario: create a text snapshot/backup of the current
settings:
=> env export -t 100000
=> era ${backup_addr} +${filesize}
=> cp.b 100000 ${backup_addr} ${filesize}
Re-import this snapshot, deleting all other settings:
=> env import -d -t ${backup_addr}
- env import [-d] [-t | -b | -c] addr [size]
import external format (text or binary) into hash table,
optionally deleting existing values:
-d: delete existing environment before importing;
otherwise overwrite / append to existion definitions
-t: assume text format; either "size" must be given or the
text data must be '\0' terminated
-b: assume binary format ('\0' separated, "\0\0" terminated)
-c: assume checksum protected environment format
addr: memory address to read from
size: length of input data; if missing, proper '\0'
termination is mandatory
- env default -f
reset default environment: drop all environment settings and load
default environment
- env ask name [message] [size]
same as "askenv": ask for environment variable
- env edit name
same as "editenv": edit environment variable
- env run
same as "run": run commands in an environment variable

TODO:
- drop default env as implemented now; provide a text file based
initialization instead (eventually using several text files to
incrementally build it from common blocks) and a tool to convert it
into a binary blob / object file.

variables; this is needed for variable name auto-completion,
but it would also be nice to be able to say "printenv ip*" or
"printenv *addr*"
