Some files are generated during libfdt build. Ignore them.
This was wrongly put in the .gitignore in the root directory before.
Now let's remove entries there and put them in the right place.

U-Boot has up until now built with -fpic for the MIPS architecture,
producing position independent code which uses indirection through a
global offset table, making relocation fairly straightforward as it
simply involves patching up GOT entries.
Using -fpic does however have some downsides. The biggest of these is
that generated code is bloated in various ways. For example, function
calls are indirected through the GOT & the t9 register:
8f998064 lw t9,-32668(gp)
0320f809 jalr t9
Without -fpic the call is simply:
0f803f01 jal be00fc04 <puts>
This is more compact & faster (due to the lack of the load & the
dependency the jump has on its result). It is also easier to read &
debug because the disassembly shows what function is being called,
rather than just an offset from gp which would then have to be looked up
in the ELF to discover the target function.
Another disadvantage of -fpic is that each function begins with a
sequence to calculate the value of the gp register, for example:
3c1c0004 lui gp,0x4
279c3384 addiu gp,gp,13188
0399e021 addu gp,gp,t9
Without using -fpic this sequence no longer appears at the start of each
function, reducing code size considerably.
This patch switches U-Boot from building with -fpic to building with
-fno-pic, in order to gain the benefits described above. The cost of
this is an extra step during the build process to extract relocation
data from the ELF & write it into a new .rel section in a compact
format, plus the added complexity of dealing with multiple types of
relocation rather than the single type that applied to the GOT. The
benefit is smaller, cleaner, more debuggable code. The relocate_code()
function is reimplemented in C to handle the new relocation scheme,
which also makes it easier to read & debug.
Taking maltael_defconfig as an example the size of u-boot.bin built
using the Codescape MIPS 2016.05-06 toolchain (gcc 4.9.2, binutils
2.24.90) shrinks from 254KiB to 224KiB.

There are many source files shared between U-boot image and tools.
Instead of adding a lot of dummy wrapper files that just include
the corresponding file in lib/ or common/ directory,
Makefile should automatically generate them.
The original inspiration for this came from
scripts/Makefile.asm-generic of Linux Kernel.

fw_printenv is a program which mostly runs on the target Linux.
Before switching to Kbuild, we needed to set HOSTCC at the
command line like this:
make HOSTCC=<your CC cross-compiler> env
Going forward we can cross compile it by specifying CROSS_COMPILE:
make CROSS_COMPILE=<your cross-compiler prefix> env
This looks more natural.

Given a multi-file image created through the mkimage's -d option:
$ mkimage -A x86 -O linux -T multi -n x86 -d vmlinuz:initrd.img:System.map \
multi.img
Image Name: x86
Created: Thu Jul 25 10:29:13 2013
Image Type: Intel x86 Linux Multi-File Image (gzip compressed)
Data Size: 13722956 Bytes = 13401.32 kB = 13.09 MB
Load Address: 00000000
Entry Point: 00000000
Contents:
Image 0: 4040128 Bytes = 3945.44 kB = 3.85 MB
Image 1: 7991719 Bytes = 7804.41 kB = 7.62 MB
Image 2: 1691092 Bytes = 1651.46 kB = 1.61 MB
It is possible to perform the innverse operation -- extracting any file from
the image -- by using the dumpimage's -i option:
$ dumpimage -i multi.img -p 2 System.map
Although it's feasible to retrieve "data files" from image through scripting,
the requirement to embed tools such 'dd', 'awk' and 'sed' for this sole purpose
is cumbersome and unreliable -- once you must keep track of file sizes inside
the image. Furthermore, extracting data files using "dumpimage" tool is faster
than through scripting.

Pull slightly modified version of Documentation/DocBook, the related perl
script scripts/kernel-doc and the scripts/docproc.c from Linux kernel and
implant it into U-Boot. This will allow smooth generation of kerneldoc
style documentation.
It was necessary to modify the DocBook/Makefile to work with U-Boot build
system. The changes were only minor though and involved replacing the kbuild
specific parts.
It was also necessary to replace use of variables like KERNEL_VERSION with
U_BOOT_VERSION, strings like Linux kernel with U-Boot Bootloader etc. so
the generated result actually matches.
Finally, it was necessary to adjust docproc.c, since the documentation in
U-Boot is located in doc/DocBook instead of Documentation/DocBook as is in
case of the Linux kernel.
Some parts of the DocBook Makefile are unused, but to allow easier sync with
Linux kernel, these parts are still left in. The targets enabled now are
"htmldocs" "pdfdocs" "psdocs" "xmldocs" and "cleandocs" to remove the results
of documentation build.
