[Buildroot] [RFC] Development around Coldfire

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello,

The work enclosed in the patches is not fully-working yet, but I
wanted to share it so that others can help, and to avoid others in
trying to do the same thing.

Basically, the goal of this patch set is to add a defconfig for the
MCF5208 Coldfire platform emulated by Qemu, which is a non-MMU
platform.

The proposed defconfig generates a system where the kernel boots, but
panics when the first userspace program exits (the kernel complains
that someone tried to kill init).

I think patches 1 to 4 could be merged now, while the 5th patch
(adding the defconfig) needs more work to fix this problem before
being submitted. The other annoying part is that a patch for Qemu is
also needed (it is part of this 5th patch).

Note that I have also done a similar work on the AT91 ARM noMMU
platform emulated by SkyEye. I hope to send the patches soon.

Thomas

[Buildroot] [PATCH 3/5] toolchain: add m68k to the list of arch that can work without MMU

[Thomas Petazzoni]

The early m68k had no MMU, later m68k had MMUs, but Coldfires don't
have MMU.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 4/5] busybox: enable useful hush suboptions

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Our default Busybox configuration enables the ash shell, but since
this shell doesn't work on noMMU platforms, we enable the hush shell
instead. However, the hush shell by itself isn't very useful without
interactive mode, support for loops, if and case statements, etc. So
we enable them.

The drawback of this method is that those options are forcefully
selected, regarless of the users choices. The other solution would be
to have a separate Busybox configuration for noMMU platforms, or work
with fragments of Busybox configurations.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 5/5] board: add support for Coldfire MCF5208EVB board emulated by Qemu

[Thomas Petazzoni]

The support requires a slightly patched Qemu, and doesn't work nicely
yet: the kernel crashes when the first userspace programs exits.

+m68k: enabled software emulation of separate supervisor/user stack
+
+Recent Coldfires have separate supervisor and user stack pointers, but
+since older Coldfires didn't have that, the Linux kernel has a kind of
+emulation mechanism for those pointers.
+
+Apparently, according to the Kconfig.cpu file, the 5208 is supposed to
+support such separate pointers, but Qemu doesn't implement it. So we
+cheat a bit here and force the usage of emulated separate stack
+pointers.

+To start the emulation, run:

+The filesystem is included as an initramfs inside the kernel image.

+At the moment, the boot process hangs when the first userspace process

Maybe default y if !(BR2_bfin || BR2_m68k) ?
Since most people will target Coldfire rather than 68xxx.
A quick look says v4 and v5 have MMU though.

I'll fix up and resend.
