We currently have an if_type (interface type) and a uclass id. These are
closely related and we don't need to have both.
Drop the if_type values and use the uclass ones instead.
Maintain the existing, subtle, one-way conversion between UCLASS_USB and
UCLASS_MASS_STORAGE for now, and add a comment.

This option is fact really related to SPL. For U-Boot proper we always use
driver model for block devices, so CONFIG_BLK is enabled if block devices
are in use.
It is only for SPL that we have two cases:
- SPL_BLK is enabled, in which case we use driver model and blk-uclass.c
- SPL_BLK is not enabled, in which case (if we need block devices) we must
use blk_legacy.c
Rename the symbol to SPL_LEGACY_BLOCK to make this clear. This is
different enough from BLK and SPL_BLK that there should be no confusion.

Running tests in parallel is much faster, e.g. 15 seconds to run the tests
on sandbox (only), instead of 100 seconds (on a 16-core machine). Add a
'make pcheck' option to access this feature.
Note that the tools/ tests still run each tool's tests once after the
other, although within that, they do run in parallel. So for example,
the buildman tests run in parallel, then the binman tests run in
parallel. There would be a signiificant advantage to running them all
in parallel together, but that would require a large amount of
refactoring, e.g. with more use of pytest fixtures.

LTO (Link-Time Optimisation) is an very useful feature which can
significantly reduce the size of U-Boot binaries. So far it has been
made available for selected ARM boards and sandbox.
However, incremental builds are much slower when LTO is used. For example,
an incremental build of sandbox takes 2.1 seconds on my machine, but 6.7
seconds with LTO enabled.
Add a NO_LTO parameter to the build, similar to NO_SDL, so it can be
disabled during development if needed, for faster builds.
Add some documentation about LTO while we are here.

When booting an OS we may obtain a different device tree and want to

Note that we don't permit aliases in this other device tree, since the
of_access implementation maintains a list of aliases collected at
start-up. Also, we don't need aliases to do fixups in the other FDT. So
make sure that flat tree and live tree processing are consistent in this
area.

Additionally, add a new section documenting the format of the configuration

directly (without a separate file) I have added documentation for it. If
the configuration points to a separate file, I have referenced that file's

The synopsis section is a bit messy. As an example, "uimage file name" is
printed in italics, bold, and roman (depending on the line). This cleans
things up and converts the synopsis section to use standard style. The
.SY/.YS macros set up appropriate formatting for command synopsis sections
(such as disabling hyphenation and setting a hanging indent). All parts of
the synopsis now use the following style:
- Bold for parts of the command which should be typed in by the user (such
as the program name and flags)
- Italic for parts which should be replaced (such as uimage-file-name)
- Roman for parts which should not be typed at all (such as brackets)
Multi-word variables now use hyphens to connect their words instead of
spaces. This makes it clearer that all the words are part of the same
variable. Additionally, "option ..." is used to denote where other options
may be specified, as this appears to be standard style.
In addition to the above style changes, this also makes some changes to
content. The use of the term "legacy" has been removed, since this simply
refers to any non-FIT image type. Additionally, wording like "uimage file
name" has been replaced with "image-file-name" to better reflect that
images may or may not be uImages. Lastly, the "auto" value for -f is
documented in the synopsis.

This adds support for "nvmem cells" as seen in Linux. The nvmem device
class in Linux is used for various assorted ROMs and EEPROMs. In this
sense, it is similar to UCLASS_MISC, but also includes
UCLASS_I2C_EEPROM, UCLASS_RTC, and UCLASS_MTD. New drivers corresponding
to a Linux-style nvmem device should be implemented as one of the
previously-mentioned uclasses. The nvmem API acts as a compatibility
layer to adapt the (slightly different) APIs of these uclasses. It also
handles the lookup of nvmem cells.
While nvmem devices can be accessed directly, they are most often used
by reading/writing contiguous values called "cells". Cells typically
hold information like calibration, versions, or configuration (such as
mac addresses).
nvmem devices can specify "cells" in their device tree:
qfprom: eeprom@700000 {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
reg = <0x00700000 0x100000>;
/* ... */
tsens_calibration: calib@404 {
reg = <0x404 0x10>;
};
};
which can then be referenced like:
tsens {
/* ... */
nvmem-cells = <&tsens_calibration>;
nvmem-cell-names = "calibration";
};
The tsens driver could then read the calibration value like:
struct nvmem_cell cal_cell;
u8 cal[16];
nvmem_cell_get_by_name(dev, "calibration", &cal_cell);
nvmem_cell_read(&cal_cell, cal, sizeof(cal));
Because nvmem devices are not all of the same uclass, supported uclasses
must register a nvmem_interface struct. This allows CONFIG_NVMEM to be
enabled without depending on specific uclasses. At the moment,
nvmem_interface is very bare-bones, and assumes that no initialization
is necessary. However, this could be amended in the future.
Although I2C_EEPROM and MISC are quite similar (and could likely be
unified), they present different read/write function signatures. To
abstract over this, NVMEM uses the same read/write signature as Linux.
In particular, short read/writes are not allowed, which is allowed by
MISC.
The functionality implemented by nvmem cells is very similar to that
provided by i2c_eeprom_partition. "fixed-partition"s for eeproms does
not seem to have made its way into Linux or into any device tree other
than sandbox. It is possible that with the introduction of this API it
would be possible to remove it.

This adds support for signing images in auto-generated FITs. To do this,
we need to add a signature node. The algorithm name property already has
its own option, but we need one for the key name hint. We could have
gone the -G route and added an explicit name for the public key (like
what is done for the private key). However, many places assume the
public key can be constructed from the key dir and hint, and I don't
want to do the refactoring necessary.
As a consequence of this, it is now easier to add public keys to an
existing image without signing something. This could be done all along,
but now you don't have to create an its just to do it. Ideally, we
wouldn't create a FIT at the end. This could be done by calling
fit_image_setup_sig/info.crypto->add_verify_data directly.

To quote the author:
The bootflow feature provide a built-in way for U-Boot to automatically
boot an Operating System without custom scripting and other customisation.
This is called 'standard boot' since it provides a standard way for
U-Boot to boot a distro, without scripting.
It introduces the following concepts:
- bootdev - a device which can hold a distro
- bootmeth - a method to scan a bootdev to find bootflows (owned by
U-Boot)
- bootflow - a description of how to boot (owned by the distro)
This series provides an implementation of these, enabled to scan for
bootflows from MMC, USB and Ethernet. It supports the existing distro
boot as well as the EFI loader flow (bootefi/bootmgr). It works
similiarly to the existing script-based approach, but is native to
U-Boot.
With this we can boot on a Raspberry Pi 3 with just one command:
bootflow scan -lb
which means to scan, listing (-l) each bootflow and trying to boot each
one (-b). The final patch shows this.
With a standard way to identify boot devices, booting become easier. It
also should be possible to support U-Boot scripts, for backwards
compatibility only.
