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/.

------------------------------------------------------------------------ A3M071 board support ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SPL NOR flash support: ---------------------- To boot fast into the OS (Linux), this board port integrates the SPL framework. This means, that a special, stripped-down version of U-Boot runs in the beginning. In the case of the A3M071 board, this SPL U-Boot version is less than 16 KiB big. This SPL U-Boot can either boot the OS (Linux) or a "real", full-blown U-Boot. This detection on whether to boot Linux or U-Boot is done by using the "boot_os" environment variable. If "boot_os" is set to "yes", Linux will be loaded and booted from the SPL U-Boot version. Otherwise, the full-blown U-Boot version will be loaded and run. Enabling Linux booting: ----------------------- From U-Boot: => setenv boot_os yes => saveenv From Linux: $ fw_setenv boot_os yes Enabling U-Boot booting: ------------------------ From U-Boot: => setenv boot_os no => saveenv From Linux: $ fw_setenv boot_os no Preparing Linux image(s) for booting from SPL U-Boot: ----------------------------------------------------- To boot the Linux kernel from the SPL, the DT blob (fdt) needs to get prepard/patched first. U-Boot usually inserts some dynamic values into the DT binary (blob), e.g. autodetected memory size, MAC addresses, clocks speeds etc. To generate this patched DT blob, you can use the following command: 1. Load fdt blob to SDRAM: => tftp 1800000 a3m071/a3m071.dtb 2. Set bootargs as desired for Linux booting (e.g. flash_mtd): => run mtdargs addip2 addtty 3. Use "fdt" commands to patch the DT blob: => fdt addr 1800000 => fdt boardsetup => fdt chosen 4. Display patched DT blob (optional): => fdt print 5. Save fdt to NOR flash: => erase fc180000 fc07ffff => cp.b 1800000 fc180000 10000 All this can be integrated into an environment command: => setenv upd_fdt 'tftp 1800000 a3m071/a3m071.dtb;run mtdargs addip addtty; \ fdt addr 1800000;fdt boardsetup;fdt chosen;erase fc180000 fc07ffff; \ cp.b 1800000 fc180000 10000' => saveenv After this, only "run upd_fdt" needs to get called to load, patch and save the DT blob into NOR flash. Additionally, the Linux kernel image has to be saved uncompressed in its uImage file (and not gzip compressed). This can be done with this command: $ mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0 -e 0 \ -n "Linux Kernel Image" -d vmlinux.bin uImage.uncompressed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stefan Roese, 2012-08-23
