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) {
...

Previously, standalone applications were compiled with gcc flags that
produced relocatable executables on the PowerPC architecture (eg with
the -mrelocatable and -fPIC flags). There's no reason for these
applications to be fully relocatable at this time since no relocation
fixups are performed on standalone applications.
Additionally, removing the gcc relocation flags results in the entry
point of applications residing at the base of the image. When
a standalone application was relocatable, the entry point was generally
located at an offset into the image which was confusing and prone to
errors.
This change moves the entry point of PowerPC standalone applications
from 0x40004 (usually) to 0x40000.

The "-ffixed-r15" option doesn't work well for gcc4. Since we
don't use gp for small data with option "-G0", we can use gp
as global data pointer. This allows compiler to use r15. It
is necessary for gcc4 to work properly.

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.

The new eth_struct definition means gcc has to zero out the structure on
the stack, and some gcc versions optimize this with an implicit call to
memset. So tweak the structure style to avoid that gcc feature.

Some versions of 'make' do not handle trailing white-spaces
properly. Trailing spaces in ELF causes a 'fake' source to
be added to the variable COBJS; leading to build failure
(listed below). The problem was found with GNU Make 3.80.
Using text-function 'strip' as a workaround for the problem.

Rather than maintain/extend the current ifeq($(ARCH)) mess that exists in
the standalone Makefile, push the setting up of LOAD_ADDR out to the arch
config.mk (and rename to STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR in the process). This keeps
the common code clean and lets the arch do whatever crazy crap it wants in

Atmel DataFlashes by default operate with pages that are slightly bigger
than normal binary sizes (i.e. many are 1056 byte pages rather than 1024
bytes). However, they also have a "power of 2" mode where the pages show
up with the normal binary size. The latter mode is required in order to
boot with a Blackfin processor, so many people wish to convert their
DataFlashes on their development systems to this mode. This standalone
application does just that.

Since the Blackfin ABI favors higher scratch registers by default, use the
last scratch register (P3) for global data rather than the first (P5).
This allows the compiler's register allocator to use higher number scratch
P registers, which in turn better matches the Blackfin instruction set,
which reduces the size of U-Boot by more than 1024 bytes...

The attached patch corrects an error in the examples/Makefile which
causes the applications in the examples directory to hang on OMAP3
based boards. The current Makefile sets -Ttext during linking to
0x0c100000 which is outside of addressable SDRAM memory. The script
corrects the existing ifeq...else...endif logic to look at the VENDOR
tag rather than the CPU tag.
The patch affects the following configs: omap3_beagle_config,
omap3_overo_config, omap3_evm_config, omap3_pandora_config,
omap3_zoom1_config and omap3_zoom2_config.
