This patch adds a small printf() version that supports all basic formats.
Its intented to be used in U-Boot SPL versions on platforms with very
limited internal RAM sizes.
To enable it, just define CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF in your defconfig. This
will result in the SPL using this tiny function and the main U-Boot
still using the full-blown printf() function.
This code was copied from:
http://www.sparetimelabs.com/printfrevisited
With mostly only coding style related changes so that its checkpatch
clean.
The size reduction is about 2.5KiB. Here a comparison for the db-mv784mp-gp
(Marvell AXP) SPL:
Without this patch:
58963 18536 1928 79427 13643 ./spl/u-boot-spl
With this patch:
56542 18536 1956 77034 12cea ./spl/u-boot-spl
Note:
To make it possible to compile tiny-printf.c instead of vsprintf.c when
CONFIG_USE_TINY_PRINTF is defined, the functions printf() and vprintf() are
moved from common/console.c into vsprintf.c in this patch.

This patch adds support for LZ4-compressed FIT image contents. This
algorithm has a slightly worse compression ration than LZO while being
nearly twice as fast to decompress. When loading images from a fast
storage medium this usually results in a boot time win.
Sandbox-tested only since I don't have a U-Boot development system set
up right now. The code was imported unchanged from coreboot where it's
proven to work, though. I'm mostly interested in getting this recognized
by mkImage for use in a downstream project.

We have flipped CONFIG_SPL_DISABLE_OF_CONTROL. We have cleansing
devices, $(SPL_) and CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(), so we are ready to clear
away the ugly logic in include/fdtdec.h:
#ifdef CONFIG_OF_CONTROL
# if defined(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) && !defined(SPL_OF_CONTROL)
# define OF_CONTROL 0
# else
# define OF_CONTROL 1
# endif
#else
# define OF_CONTROL 0
#endif
Now CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(OF_CONTROL) is the substitute. It refers to
CONFIG_OF_CONTROL for U-boot proper and CONFIG_SPL_OF_CONTROL for
SPL.
Also, we no longer have to cancel CONFIG_OF_CONTROL in
include/config_uncmd_spl.h and scripts/Makefile.spl.

This commit changes the working directory
where the build process occurs.
Before this commit, build process occurred under the source
tree for both in-tree and out-of-tree build.
That's why we needed to add $(obj) prefix to all generated
files in makefiles like follows:
$(obj)u-boot.bin: $(obj)u-boot
Here, $(obj) is empty for in-tree build, whereas it points
to the output directory for out-of-tree build.
And our old build system changes the current working directory
with "make -C <sub-dir>" syntax when descending into the
sub-directories.
On the other hand, Kbuild uses a different idea
to handle out-of-tree build and directory descending.
The build process of Kbuild always occurs under the output tree.
When "O=dir/to/store/output/files" is given, the build system
changes the current working directory to that directory and
restarts the make.
Kbuild uses "make -f $(srctree)/scripts/Makefile.build obj=<sub-dir>"
syntax for descending into sub-directories.
(We can write it like "make $(obj)=<sub-dir>" with a shorthand.)
This means the current working directory is always the top
of the output directory.

Downloaded from http://slre.sourceforge.net/
and adapted for U-Boot environment.
Used to implement regex operations on environment variables.
Code size is ~ 3.5 KiB on PPC.
To enable this code, define the CONFIG_REGEX option in your board
config file.
Note: There are more recent versions of the SLRE library available at
http://slre.googlecode.com ; unfortunately, the new code has a heavily
reorked API which makes it less usable for our purposes:
- the return code is strings, which are more difficult to process
- we don't get any information any more which sub-string of the data
was matched by the given regex
- it is much more cumbersome to work with arbitrary expressions, where
for example the number of substrings for capturing are not known at
compile time
Also, there does not seem to be any real changes or improvements of
the functionality.
Because of this, we deliberately stick with the older code.
Note 2: the test code (built when SLRE_TEST is defined) was modified
to allow for more extensive testing; now we can test the regexp
matching on all lines on a text file (instead of the whole data in the
file as a single block).

TPM command library implements a subset of TPM commands defined in TCG
Main Specification 1.2 that are useful for implementing secure boot.
More TPM commands could be added out of necessity.
You may exercise these commands through the 'tpm' command. However, the
raw TPM commands are too primitive for writing secure boot in command
interpreter scripts; so the 'tpm' command also provides helper functions
to make scripting easier.
For example, to define a counter in TPM non-volatile storage and
initialize it to zero:
$ tpm init
$ tpm startup TPM_ST_CLEAR
$ tpm nv_define d 0x1001 0x1
$ tpm nv_write d 0x1001 0
And then increment the counter by one:
$ tpm nv_read d 0x1001 i
$ setexpr.l i $i + 1
$ tpm nv_write d 0x1001 $i

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.

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).

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.

This implementation is based on code from uClibc-0.9.30.3 but was
modified and extended for use within U-Boot.
Major modifications and extensions:
* hsearch() [modified / extended]:
- While the standard version does not make any assumptions about
the type of the stored data objects at all, this implementation
works with NUL terminated strings only.
- Instead of storing just pointers to the original objects, we
create local copies so the caller does not need to care about the
data any more.
- The standard implementation does not provide a way to update an
existing entry. This version will create a new entry or update an
existing one when both "action == ENTER" and "item.data != NULL".
- hsearch_r(): Instead of returning 1 on success, we return the
index into the internal hash table, which is also guaranteed to be
positive. This allows us direct access to the found hash table
slot for example for functions like hdelete().
* hdelete() [added]:
- The standard implementation of hsearch(3) does not provide any way
to delete any entries from the hash table. We extend the code to
do that.
* hexport() [added]:
- Export the data stored in the hash table in linearized form:
Entries are exported as "name=value" strings, separated by an
arbitrary (non-NUL, of course) separator character. This allows to
use this function both when formatting the U-Boot environment for
external storage (using '\0' as separator), but also when using it
for the "printenv" command to print all variables, simply by using
as '\n" as separator. This can also be used for new features like
exporting the environment data as text file, including the option
for later re-import.
- The entries in the result list will be sorted by ascending key
values.
* himport() [added]:
- Import linearized data into hash table. This is the inverse
function to hexport(): it takes a linear list of "name=value"
pairs and creates hash table entries from it.
- Entries without "value", i. e. consisting of only "name" or
"name=", will cause this entry to be deleted from the hash table.
- The "flag" argument can be used to control the behaviour: when
the H_NOCLEAR bit is set, then an existing hash table will kept,
i. e. new data will be added to an existing hash table;
otherwise, old data will be discarded and a new hash table will
be created.
- The separator character for the "name=value" pairs can be
selected, so we both support importing from externally stored
environment data (separated by NUL characters) and from plain text
files (entries separated by newline characters).
- To allow for nicely formatted text input, leading white space
(sequences of SPACE and TAB chars) is ignored, and entries
starting (after removal of any leading white space) with a '#'
character are considered comments and ignored.
- NOTE: this means that a variable name cannot start with a '#'
character.
- When using a non-NUL separator character, backslash is used as
escape character in the value part, allowing for example fo
multi-line values.
- In theory, arbitrary separator characters can be used, but only
