11bde1cd59 Kconfig: spl: Add SPL support options to Kconfig
There are a lot of SPL options in U-Boot to enable various features and
drivers. Currently these do not use Kconfig. Add them to Kconfig along
with suitable help, and drop them from the README.

6f4e7d3c75 spl: Lightweight UBI and UBI fastmap support
Booting a payload out of NAND FLASH from the SPL is a crux today, as
it requires hard partioned FLASH. Not a brilliant idea with the
reliability of todays NAND FLASH chips.

The upstream UBI + UBI fastmap implementation which is about to
brought to u-boot is too heavy weight for SPLs as it provides way more
functionality than needed for a SPL and does not even fit into the
restricted SPL areas which are loaded from the SoC boot ROM.

So this provides a fast and lightweight implementation of UBI scanning
and UBI fastmap attach. The scan and logical to physical block mapping
code is developed from scratch, while the fastmap implementation is
lifted from the linux kernel source and stripped down to fit the SPL
needs.

The text foot print on the board which I used for development is:

6854	0	0	6854	1abd
drivers/mtd/ubispl/built-in.o

Attaching a NAND chip with 4096 physical eraseblocks (4 blocks are
reserved for the SPL) takes:

In full scan mode:      1172ms
In fastmap mode:          95ms

The code requires quite some storage. The largest and unknown part of
it is the number of fastmap blocks to read. Therefor the data
structure is not put into the BSS. The code requires a pointer to free
memory handed in which is initialized by the UBI attach code itself.

See doc/README.ubispl for further information on how to use it.

This shares the ubi-media.h and crc32 implementation of drivers/mtd/ubi
There is no way to share the fastmap code, as UBISPL only utilizes the
slightly modified functions ubi_attach_fastmap() and ubi_scan_fastmap()
from the original kernel ubi fastmap implementation.

aa9e604410 cmd: eeprom: add support for layout aware commands
Introduce the (optional) eeprom print and eeprom update commands.

These commands are eeprom layout aware:
* The eeprom print command prints the contents of the eeprom in a human
  readable way (eeprom layout fields, and data formatted to be fit for human
  consumption).
* The eeprom update command allows user to update eeprom fields by specifying
  the field name, and providing the new data in a human readable format (same
  format as displayed by the eeprom print command).
* Both commands can either auto detect the layout, or be told which layout to
  use.

New CONFIG options:
CONFIG_CMD_EEPROM_LAYOUT - enables commands.
CONFIG_EEPROM_LAYOUT_HELP_STRING - tells user what layout names are supported

Feature API:
__weak int parse_layout_version(char *str)
	- override to provide your own layout name parsing
__weak void __eeprom_layout_assign(struct eeprom_layout *layout, int layout_version);
	- override to setup the layout metadata based on the version
__weak int eeprom_layout_detect(unsigned char *data)
	- override to provide your own algorithm for detecting layout version
eeprom_field.c
	- contains various printing and updating functions for common types of
	  eeprom fields. Can be used for defining custom layouts.

73223f0e1b Kconfig: Move CONFIG_FIT and related options to Kconfig
There are already two FIT options in Kconfig but the CONFIG options are
still in the header files. We need to do a proper move to fix this.

Move these options to Kconfig and tidy up board configuration:

   CONFIG_FIT
   CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP
   CONFIG_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP
   CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
   CONFIG_FIT_BEST_MATCH
   CONFIG_FIT_VERBOSE
   CONFIG_OF_STDOUT_VIA_ALIAS
   CONFIG_RSA

Unfortunately the first one is a little complicated. We need to make sure
this option is not enabled in SPL by this change. Also this option is
enabled automatically in the host builds by defining CONFIG_FIT in the
image.h file. To solve this, add a new IMAGE_USE_FIT #define which can
be used in files that are built on the host but must also build for U-Boot
and SPL.

Note: Masahiro's moveconfig.py script is amazing.

50768f5b06 net: bootp: Add environment variable for timeout period
There is currently one config option (CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT) that
is available to tune the retries of the network stack.
Unfortunately, it is global to all protocols, and the value is
interpreted differently in all of them.

Add a new environment variable that directly sets the retry period for
BOOTP timeouts. If this new value is not set, the period is still derived
from the default number of retries, or from CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT if
defined. When both the new variable is set and CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT
is defined, the variable has precedence.

When reintroducing, it might be useful to make a few changes:
- Blink time would be more useful than blink count
- The confusing #ifdefs should be avoided
- The time functions should support driver model
- It would be best keyed off console_tstc() or some similar idle loop

9ac4fc8207 board_init: Change the logic to setup malloc_base
Prior to commit 5ba534d247 ("arm: Switch 32-bit ARM to using generic
global_data setup") we used to have assembly code that configured the
malloc_base address.

Since this commit we use the board_init_f_mem() function in C to setup
malloc_base address.

In board_init_f_mem() there was a deliberate choice to support only
early malloc() or full malloc() in SPL, but not both.

Adapt this logic to allow both to be used, one after the other, in SPL.

This issue has been observed in a Congatec board, where we need to
retrieve the manufacturing information from the SPI NOR (the SPI API
calls malloc) prior to configuring the DRAM. In this case as malloc_base
was not configured we always see malloc to fail.

With this change we are able to use malloc in SPL prior to DRAM gets
initialized.

Also update the CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START entry in the README file.

0766ad2f7f dm: tpm: Move tpm_tis_i2c to tpm_i2c_infineon
As there is no TCG specification or recommendation for i2c TPM 1.2,
move tpm_tis_i2c driver to tpm_i2c_infineon. Other tpm vendors like Atmel
or STMicroelectronics may have a different transport protocol for i2c.

9e98b7e3c5 cmd: bootvx: Always get VxWorks bootline from env
So far VxWorks bootline can be contructed from various environment
variables, but when these variables do not exist we get these from
corresponding config macros. This is not helpful as it requires
rebuilding U-Boot, and to make sure these config macros take effect
we should not have these environment variables. This is a little
bit complex and confusing.

Now we change the logic to always contruct the bootline from
environments (the only single source), by adding two new variables
"bootdev" and "othbootargs", and adding some comments about network
related settings mentioning they are optional. The doc about the
bootline handling is also updated.

e392b923ed arndale: Apply Cortex-A15 errata #773022 and #774769
We run 4 Arndale boards in our automated test framework, they have
been running quite happily for quite some time using a Debian Wheezy
userspace.

However when upgrading to a Debian Jessie we started seeing frequent
segmentation faults from gcc when building the kernel, to the extent
that it is unable to successfully build the kernel twice in a row, and
often fails on the first attempt.

Searching around I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/arndale/+bug/1081417
which pointed towards http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm-arm/msg03723.html
and CPU Errata 773022 and 774769.

This errata needs to be applied to all processors in an SMP system,
meaning that the usual strategy of applying them in
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S is not appropriate (since that applies to
the boot processor only). Instead we apply these errata in the secure
monitor which is code that is traversed by all processors as they are
brought up.

The net affect on Arndale is that ACTLR changes from 0x40 to
0x2000042. I ran 17 kernel compile iterations overnight with no
segfaults.

Runtime testing was done on our v2014.10 based branch and forward
ported (with only minimal and trivial contextual conflicts) to current
master, where it has been build tested only.

I suppose in theory these errata apply to any Exynos5250 based boards,
but Arndale is the only one I have access to and I have therefore
chosen to be conservative and only apply it there.

Also, reorder CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_794072 in README to make the list
numerically sorted.
