Prior to Kbuild, $(TOPDIR) or $(SRCTREE) was used for pointing to the top of source directory. (No difference between the two.) In Kbuild style, $(srctree) is used instead. This commit renames TOPDIR to srctree and delete the defition of TOPDIR. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.m@jp.panasonic.com>

Commands are added to U-Boot by creating a new command structure.
|
|
This is done by first including command.h, then using the U_BOOT_CMD() macro
|
|
to fill in a cmd_tbl_t struct.
|
|
|
|
U_BOOT_CMD(name,maxargs,repeatable,command,"usage","help")
|
|
|
|
name: is the name of the commad. THIS IS NOT a string.
|
|
maxargs: the maximum number of arguments this function takes
|
|
repeatable: either 0 or 1 to indicate if autorepeat is allowed
|
|
command: Function pointer (*cmd)(struct cmd_tbl_s *, int, int, char *[]);
|
|
usage: Short description. This is a string
|
|
help: Long description. This is a string
|
|

**** Behind the scene ******
|
|
|
|
The structure created is named with a special prefix and placed by
|
|
the linker in a special section using the linker lists mechanism
|
|
(see include/linker_lists.h)
|
|
|
|
This makes it possible for the final link to extract all commands
|
|
compiled into any object code and construct a static array so the
|
|
command array can be iterated over using the linker lists macros.
|
|
|
|
The linker lists feature ensures that the linker does not discard
|
|
these symbols when linking full U-Boot even though they are not
|
|
referenced in the source code as such.

|
If a new board is defined do not forget to define the command section
|
|
by writing in u-boot.lds ($(srctree)/board/boardname/u-boot.lds) these
