ef639e6f70 arc: significant cache rework
[1] Align cache management functions to those in Linux kernel. I.e.:
    a) Use the same functions for all cache ops (D$ Inv/Flush)
    b) Split cache ops in 3 sub-functions: "before", "lineloop" and
"after". That way we may re-use "before" and "after" functions for
region and full cache ops.

 [2] Implement full-functional L2 (SLC) management. Before SLC was
simply disabled early on boot. It's also possible to enable or disable
L2 cache from config utility.

 [3] Disable/enable corresponding caches early on boot. So if U-Boot is
configured to use caches they will be used at all times (this is useful
in partucular for speed-up of relocation).

8b2eb776b1 arc: implement slave cores kick-start for Linux kernel
With new SMP-enabled CPUs with ARC HS38 cores and corresponding support
in Linux kernel it's required to add basic SMP support in U-Boot.

Currently we assume the one and only core starts execution after
power-on. So most of things in U-Boot is handled in UP mode.

But when U-Boot is used for loading and starting Linux kernel right
before jumping to kernel's entry point U-Boot:
 [1] Sets all slave cores to jump to the same address [kernel's entry
point]
 [2] Really starts all slav cores

In ARC's implemetation of SMP in Linux kernel all cores are supposed to
run the same start-up code. But only core with ID 0 (master core)
processes further while others are looping waiting for master core to
complete some initialization.

That means it's safe to un-pause slave cores and let them execute kernel
- they will wait for master anyway.

c9bb942e2f Move default y configs out of arch/board Kconfig
Some archs/boards specify their own default by pre-defining the config
which causes the Kconfig system to mix up the order of the configs in
the defconfigs... This will cause merge pain if allowed to proliferate.

Remove the configs that behave this way from the archs.

A few configs still remain, but that is because they only exist as
defaults and do not have a proper Kconfig entry. Those appear to be:

89576072cb arc: make sure _start is in the beginning of .text section
This is important to have entry point in the beginning of .text section
because it allows simple loading and execution of U-Boot.

For example pre-bootloader loads U-Boot in memory starting from offset
0x81000000 and then just jumps to the same address.

Otherwise pre-bootloader would need to find-out where entry-point is. In
its turn if it deals with binary image of U-Boot there's no way for
pre-bootloader to get required value.

ARCv2 cores may have built-in SLC (System Level Cache, AKA L2-cache).
This change adds functions required for controlling SLC:
 * slc_enable/disable
 * slc_flush/invalidate

For now we just disable SLC to escape DMA coherency issues until either:
 * SLC flush/invalidate is supported in DMA APIin U-Boot
 * hardware DMA coherency is implemented (that might be board specific
   so probably we'll need to have a separate Kconfig option for
   controlling SLC explicitly)

3fb8016360 arc: clean-up init procedure
Intention behind this work was elimination of as much assembly-written
code as it is possible.

In case of ARC we already have relocation fix-up implemented in C so why
don't we use C for U-Boot copying, .bss zeroing etc.

It turned out x86 uses pretty similar approach so we re-used parts of
code in "board_f.c" initially implemented for x86.

Now assembly usage during init is limited to stack- and frame-pointer
setup before and after relocation.

ae4a351ad9 arc: cache - build invalidate_icache_all() and invalidate_dcache_all()
always

Make both invalidate_icache_all() and invalidate_dcache_all() available
even if U-Boot is configured with CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF and/or
CONFIG_SYS_ICACHE_OFF.

This is useful because configuration of U-Boot may not match actual
hardware features. Real board may have cache(s) but for some reason we
may want to run U-Boot with cache(s) disabled (for example if some
peripherals work improperly with existing drivers if data cache is
enabled). So board may start with cache(s) enabled (that's the case for
ARC cores with built-in caches) but early in U-Boot we disable cache(s)
and make sure all contents of data cache gets flushed in RAM.

f13606b77d arc: introduce U-Boot port for ARCv2 ISA
ARC HS and ARC EM are new cores based on ARCv2 ISA which is binary
incompatible with ISAv1 (AKA ARCompact).

Significant difference between ISAv2 and v1 is implementation of
interrupt vector table.

In v1 it is implemented in the same way as on many other architectures -
as a special location where user may put whether code executed in place
(if machine word of space is enough) or jump to a full-scale interrupt
handler.

In v2 interrupt table is just an array of adresses of real interrupt
handlers. That requires a separate section for IVT that is not encoded
as code by assembler.

This change adds support for following cores:
 * ARC EM6 (simple 32-bit microcontroller without MMU)
 * ARC HS36 (advanced 32-bit microcontroller without MMU)
 * ARC HS38 (advanced 32-bit microcontroller with MMU)

As a part of ARC HS38 new version of MMU (v4) was introduced.

Also this change adds AXS131 board which is the same DW ARC SDP base board but
with ARC HS38 CPU tile.

a67ef280f4 arc: build libgcc in U-Boot
This way we may have very limited set of functions implemented so we
save some space.

Also it allows us to build U-Boot for any ARC core with the same one
toolchain because we don't rely on pre-built libgcc.

For example:
 * we may use little-endian toolchain but build U-Boot for ether
endianess
 * we may use non-multilibbed uClibc toolchain but build U-Boot for
whatever ARC CPU flavour that current GCC supports

Private libgcc built from generic C implementation contributes only 144
bytes to .text section so we don't see significant degradation of size:
--->8---
$ arc-linux-size u-boot.libgcc-prebuilt
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 222217	  24912	 214820	 461949	  70c7d	u-boot.libgcc-prebuilt

$ arc-linux-size u-boot.libgcc-private
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 222361	  24912	 214820	 462093	  70d0d	u-boot.libgcc-private
--->8---

Also I don't notice visible performance degradation compared to
pre-built libgcc (where at least "*div*" functions are had-written in
assembly) on typical operations of downloading 10Mb uImage over TFTP and
bootm.

as middle-endian and then on real execution CPU will read swapped
addresses and will jump into the wild.

first which allows us to use common linker option for linking everything

4c8c485ad9 arc: introduce "mdbtrick" target
MetaWare debugger (MDB) is still used as a primary tool for interaction
with target via JTAG. Moreover some very advanced features are not yet
implemented in GDB for ARC (and not sure if they will be implemnted
sometime soon given complexity and rare need for those features for
common user).

So if we're talking about development process when U-Boot is loaded in
target memory not by low-level boot-loader but manually through JTAG
chances are high developer uses MDB for it.

But MDB doesn't support PIE (position-independent executable) - it will
refuse to even start - that means no chance to load elf contents on
target.
Then the only way to load U-Boot in MDB is to fake it by:
  1. Reset PIE flag in ELF header
     This is simpe - on attempt to open elf MDB checks header and if it
doesn't match its expectation refuces to use provided elf.
  2. Strip all debug information from elf
     If (1) is done then MDB will open elf but on parsing of elf's debug
info it will refuse to process due to debug info it cannot understand
(symbols with PIE relocation).

Even though it could be done manually (I got it documented quite a while
ago here http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/ARCNotes) having this automated
way is very convenient. User may build U-Boot that will be loaded on
target via MDB saying "make mdbtrick".

Then if we now apply the manipulation MDB will happily start and will
load all required sections into the target.

Indeed there will be no source-level debug info available. But still MDB
will do its work on showing disassembly, global symbols, registers,
accessing low-level debug facilities etc.

As a summary - this is a pretty dirty hack but it simplifies life a lot
for us ARc developers.

e19db555b4 Kbuild: introduce Makefile in arch/$ARCH/
Introduce a Makefile under arch/$ARCH/ and include it in the
top Makefile (similar to Linux kernel). This allows further
refactoringi like moving architecture-specific code out of global
makefiles, deprecating config variables (CPU, CPUDIR, SOC) or
deprecating arch/$ARCH/config.mk.

In contrary to Linux kernel, U-Boot defines the ARCH variable by
Kconfig, thus the arch Makefile can only included conditionally
after the top config.mk.

461be2f96e kconfig: remove redundant "string" type in arch and board Kconfigs
Now the types of CONFIG_SYS_{ARCH, CPU, SOC, VENDOR, BOARD, CONFIG_NAME}
are specified in arch/Kconfig.

We can delete the ones in arch and board Kconfig files.

This commit can be easily reproduced by the following command:

find . -name Kconfig -a ! -path ./arch/Kconfig | xargs sed -i -e '
/config[[:space:]]SYS_\(ARCH\|CPU\|SOC\|\VENDOR\|BOARD\|CONFIG_NAME\)/ {
    N
    s/\n[[:space:]]*string//
}
'

dd84058d24 kconfig: add board Kconfig and defconfig files
This commit adds:
 - arch/${ARCH}/Kconfig
    provide a menu to select target boards
 - board/${VENDOR}/${BOARD}/Kconfig or board/${BOARD}/Kconfig
    set CONFIG macros to the appropriate values for each board
 - configs/${TARGET_BOARD}_defconfig
    default setting of each board

(This commit was automatically generated by a conversion script
based on boards.cfg)

In Linux Kernel, defconfig files are located under
arch/${ARCH}/configs/ directory.
It works in Linux Kernel since ARCH is always given from the
command line for cross compile.

But in U-Boot, ARCH is not given from the command line.
Which means we cannot know ARCH until the board configuration is done.
That is why all the "*_defconfig" files should be gathered into a
single directory ./configs/.

2a1680e30e common/board_f: Initialized global data for generic board
Some platforms (tested on mpc85xx, mpc86xx) use global data before calling
function baord_inti_f(). The data should not be cleared later. Any arch
which uses global data in generic board board_init_f() should define
CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_GLOBAL_DATA.

36ae5cd2a8 arc: fix relocation for big-endian target
In case of little-endian ARC700 instructions (which may include target
address) are encoded as middle-endian. That's why it's required to swap
bytes after read and ten right before write back.

But in case of big-endian ARC700 instructions are encoded as a plain
big-endian. Thus no need for byte swapping.
