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) {
...

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

This patch removes the duplicted implementations of the pci_pre_init()
function by introducing a weak default function for it. This weak default
has a different implementation for some PPC variants. It can be
overridden by a board specific version.

This patch removes the duplicted implementations of the pci_target_init()
function by introducing a weak default function for it. This weak default
has a different implementation for 440EP(x)/GR(x) PPC's. It can be

This patch introduces a weak default function for is_pci_host(),
returning 1. This is the default behaviour, since most boards only
implement PCI host functionality. This weak default can be overridden
by a board specific version if needed.

The latest PPC4xx register cleanup patch missed the UIC defines.
This patch now changes lower case UIC defines to upper case.
Signed-off-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>
This patch cleans up multiple issues of the 4xx register (mostly
DCR, SDR, CPR, etc) definitions:
- Change lower case defines to upper case (plb4_acr -> PLB4_ACR)
- Change the defines to better match the names from the
user's manuals (e.g. cprpllc -> CPR0_PLLC)
- Removal of some unused defines
Please test this patch intensive on your PPC4xx platform. Even though
I tried not to break anything and tested successfully on multiple
4xx AMCC platforms, testing on custom platforms is recommended.

Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.
Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.
This patch cleans this up - for example:
Before:
=> help dtt
dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.
After:
=> help dtt
dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt

This patch enables the hardware-fix for the PCI/DMA errata's 19+22 by
setting the FIXD bit in the SDR0_MFR register. Here a description of the
symptoms:
Problem Description
------------------------------
If a DMA is performed between memory and PCI with the DMA 1 Controller
using prefetch, and as a result uses a special purpose buffer selected by
the PCIXn Bridge Options 1 Register (PCIXn_BRDGOPT1[RBP7] - bits 31-29),
the first part of the transfer sequence is performed twice. The
PPC440SPe PCI Controller requests more data than was needed such that in
the case of enforce memory protection, a host CPU exception can occur.
No data is corrupted, because data transfer is stopped in the PCI
Controller. Prefetch enable is specified by setting DMA Configuration
Register (I2O0_DMAx_CFG[DXEPD] - bit 31) to 0.
Behavior that may be observed in a running system
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DMA performance is decreased because of the double access on the PCI bus
interface.
2. If an illegal access to some address on the PCI bus is detected at the
system level, a machine check or similar system error may occur.
Workarounds Available
----------------------------------
1. Do not program prefetch. Note that a prefetch command cannot be programmed
without selecting a special purpose buffer.
2. To avoid crossing a physical boundary of the PCI slave device, add 512
bytes of address to the PCI address range.

The AMCC Luan now uses the common 440SP(e) DDR SPD code for DDR
inititializition. This includes DDR auto calibration and support
for different DIMM modules, instead of the fixed setup used in
the earlier version.
This patch also enables the cache in FLASH for the startup
phase of U-Boot (while running from FLASH). After relocating to
SDRAM the cache is disabled again. This will speed up the boot
process, especially the SDRAM setup, since there are some loops
for memory testing (auto calibration).
