      Licenses: introduce SPDX Unique Lincense Identifiers · eca3aeb3
      Wolfgang Denk authored
      Like many other projects, U-Boot has a tradition of including big
      blocks of License headers in all files.  This not only blows up the
      source code with mostly redundant information, but also makes it very
      difficult to generate License Clearing Reports.  An additional problem
      is that even the same lincenses are referred to by a number of
      slightly varying text blocks (full, abbreviated, different
      indentation, line wrapping and/or white space, with obsolete address
      information, ...) which makes automatic processing a nightmare.
      
      To make this easier, such license headers in the source files will be
      replaced with a single line reference to Unique Lincense Identifiers
      as defined by the Linux Foundation's SPDX project [1].  For example,
      in a source file the full "GPL v2.0 or later" header text will be
      replaced by a single line:
      
              SPDX-License-Identifier:        GPL-2.0+
      
      We use the SPDX Unique Lincense Identifiers here; these are available
      at [2].
      
      Note: From the legal point of view, this patch is supposed to be only
      a change to the textual representation of the license information,
      but in no way any change to the actual license terms. With this patch
      applied, all files will still be licensed under the same terms they
      were before.
      
      Note 2: The apparent difference between the old "COPYING" and the new
      "Licenses/gpl-2.0.txt" only results from switching to the upstream
      version of the license which is differently formatted; there are not
      any actual changes to the content.
      
      Note 3: There are some recurring questions about linense issues, such
      as:
          - Is a "All Rights Reserved" clause a problem in GPL code?
          - Are files without any license header a problem?
          - Do we need license headers at all?
      
      The following excerpt from an e-mail by Daniel B. Ravicher should help
      with these:

      | It is not a conflict to grant a license and also reserve all rights, as
      | implicit in that language is that you are reserving all "other" rights
      | not granted in the license.  Thus, a file with "Licensed under GPL, All

      | other rights are given to copy, modify or redistribute it.

      mkimage: Build signing only if board has CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE · 29ce737d
      Simon Glass authored
      
      At present mkimage is set up to always build with image signing support.
      This means that the SSL libraries (e.g. libssl-dev) are always required.
      
      Adjust things so that mkimage can be built with and without image signing,
      controlled by the presence of CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE in the board config file.
      
      If CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE is not enabled, then mkimage will report a warning
      that signing is not supported. If the option is enabled, but libraries are
      not available, then a build error similar to this will be shown:
      
      lib/rsa/rsa-sign.c:26:25: fatal error: openssl/rsa.h: No such file or directory

      image: Add RSA support for image signing · 19c402af
      Simon Glass authored
      
      RSA provides a public key encryption facility which is ideal for image
      signing and verification.
      
      Images are signed using a private key by mkimage. Then at run-time, the
      images are verified using a private key.
      
      This implementation uses openssl for the host part (mkimage). To avoid
      bringing large libraries into the U-Boot binary, the RSA public key
      is encoded using a simple numeric representation in the device tree.

      When tracing is enabled, we #define FTRACE. This can be used by

      Trigger generic board error only when building · fada9e20
      Simon Glass authored
      
      At present the generic board error can occur when configuring U-Boot, or
      during distclean, but this is incorrect. The existing autoconf.mk may come
      from an earlier U-Boot configuration which is about to be overwritten.
      
      Make the error conditional so that it will only be triggered when we are
      actually building U-Boot.
      
      This avoids a problem where the system is being reconfigured to remove
      CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD on an architecture that does not support it.
      Currently this will print an error and require the manual removal of
      include/autoconf.mk.

      Makefile: Move SHELL setup to config.mk · 120ae609
      Benoît Thébaudeau authored
      
      make never uses the SHELL variable from the environment. Instead, it
      uses /bin/sh, or the value assigned to the SHELL variable by the Makefile. This
      makes the export of the SHELL variable useless for sub-makes (but still useful
      for the environment of recipes). However, we want all makes to use the same
      shell.
      
      This patch fixes this issue by moving the SHELL variable setup and export to the
      top config.mk, so that all Makefile-s including it use the same shell.
      
      Since BASH is used by default, this makes it possible to use things
      like 'echo -e ...' in sub-makes, which would otherwise fail e.g. with /bin/sh
      symlinked to /bin/dash on Ubuntu.

      common: Add symbol handling for generic lists into Makefile · 97b24d3d
      Marek Vasut authored
      
      This patch adds essential components for generation of the contents of
      the linker section that is used by the linker-generated array. All of
      the contents is held in a separate file, u-boot.lst, which is generated
      at runtime just before U-Boot is linked.
      
      The purpose of this code is to especially generate the appropriate
      boundary symbols around each subsection in the section carrying the
      linker-generated arrays. Obviously, the interim linker code for actual
      placement of the variables into the section is generated too. The
      generated file, u-boot.lst, is included into u-boot.lds via the linker
      INCLUDE directive in u-boot.lds .
      
      Adjustments are made in the Makefile and spl/Makefile so that the
      u-boot.lds and u-boot-spl.lds depend on their respective .lst files.

      This patch makes sure that we always use the GNU ld. U-Boot uses certain
      construct e.g. OVERLAY which are not implemented in gold therefore it
      always needs GNU ld for linking.
      
      It works well if default linker in toolchain is GNU ld but in some
      cases we can have gold to be the default linker and also ship GNU ld
      but not as default in such cases its called $(PREFIX)ld.bfd, with this
      patch we make sure that if $(PREFIX)ld.bfd exists than we use that for
      our ld.

      Reduce build times · cca4e4ae
      Wolfgang Denk authored
      
      U-Boot Makefiles contain a number of tests for compiler features etc.
      which so far are executed again and again.  On some architectures
      (especially ARM) this results in a large number of calls to gcc.
      
      This patch makes sure to run such tests only once, thus largely
      reducing the number of "execve" system calls.
      
      Example: number of "execve" system calls for building the "P2020DS"
      (Power Architecture) and "qong" (ARM) boards, measured as:
      	-> strace -f -e trace=execve -o /tmp/foo ./MAKEALL <board>
      	-> grep execve /tmp/foo | wc -l
      
      	Before: After:	Reduction:
      ==================================
      P2020DS 20555	15205	-26%
      qong	31692	14490	-54%
      
      As a result, built times are significantly reduced, typically by
      30...50%.

      fdt: Add support for embedded device tree (CONFIG_OF_EMBED) · bbb0b128
      Simon Glass authored and Wolfgang Denk's avatar Wolfgang Denk committed
      
      This new option allows U-Boot to embed a binary device tree into its image
      to allow run-time control of peripherals. This device tree is for U-Boot's
      own use and is not necessarily the same one as is passed to the kernel.
      
      The device tree compiler output should be placed in the $(obj)
      rooted tree. Since $(OBJCOPY) insists on adding the path to the
      generated symbol names, to ensure consistency it should be
      invoked from the directory where the .dtb file is located and
      given the input file name without the path.

      This change moves the dependency generation into the Makefile itself, and
      permits a CPPFLAGS_path/file.o to adjust preprocessor flags on a file or

      The CPPFLAGS_... variable is also folded into CFLAGS during the build.

      Handle most LDSCRIPT setting centrally · 83b7e2a7
      Scott Wood authored and Wolfgang Denk's avatar Wolfgang Denk committed
      
      Currently, some linker scripts are found by common code in config.mk.
      Some are found using CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT, but the code for that is
      sometimes in arch config.mk and sometimes in board config.mk.  Some
      are found using an arch-specific rule for looking in CPUDIR, etc.
      
      Further, the powerpc config.mk rule relied on CONFIG_NAND_SPL
      when it really wanted CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT -- which covered up the fact
      that not all NAND_U_BOOT builds actually wanted CPUDIR/u-boot-nand.lds.
      
      Replace all of this -- except for a handful of boards that are actually
      selecting a linker script in a unique way -- with centralized ldscript
      finding.
      
      If board code specifies LDSCRIPT, that will be used.
      Otherwise, if CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT is specified, that will be used.
      
      If neither of these are specified, then the central config.mk will
      check for the existence of the following, in order:
      
      $(TOPDIR)/board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds (only if CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT)
      $(TOPDIR)/$(CPUDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds (only if CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT)

      Some boards (sc3, cm5200, munices) provided their own u-boot.lds that
      were dead code, because they were overridden by a CPUDIR u-boot.lds under
      the old powerpc rules.  These boards' own u-boot.lds have bitrotted and
      no longer work -- these lds files have been removed.

      config.mk: unify duplicated flag setting · 326a6945
      Mike Frysinger authored and Wolfgang Denk's avatar Wolfgang Denk committed
      
      Multiple rules are using the expanded AFLAGS/CFLAGS settings and some are
      getting so long that the rules need to be line wrapped.  So unify them in
      one variable, use that variable in the rule, and then unwrap things.  This
      makes the actual `make` output nicer as it doesn't have line continuations
      in it anymore.

      Switch from archive libraries to partial linking · 6d8962e8
      Sebastien Carlier authored and Wolfgang Denk's avatar Wolfgang Denk committed
      
      Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
      found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
      binutils.  As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
      extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
      
      This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
      of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
      linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
      This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
      cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
      inspired.
      
      The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
      extensions which change from ".a" to ".o".  This commit updates
      references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
      scripts.
      
      This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
      include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
      resulting in undefined symbols.  Known such cases include:
      - disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
      - enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

      Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE · 14d0a02a
      Wolfgang Denk authored
      
      The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
      configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
      a simple, table driven script.
      
      Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
      also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
      a Kconfig driven configuration system.

      config.mk: avoid -traditional-cpp on OS X 10.5 · f534c7cd
      Mike Frysinger authored and Wolfgang Denk's avatar Wolfgang Denk committed
      
      Simply trying to include a basic header file like stdlib.h on OS X 10.5
      and then building with -traditional-cpp fails with lots of errors like:
      In file included from /usr/include/stdlib.h:63,
                       from test.c:3:
      /usr/include/available.h:85: error: stray '#' in program
      /usr/include/available.h:85: error: syntax error before numeric constant
      /usr/include/available.h:86: error: stray '#' in program
      
      In the past, I hadn't noticed because the old logic for these flags were
      restricted to Darwin running on PowerPC systems while I'm running on an
      Intel system.  But after some recent clean ups and changes, the flag was
      being applied to all Darwin systems and my host tools broke.
