[0/4] Further zImage work

[0/4] Further zImage work

[David Gibson]

The following patch series is an attempt to consolidate some of the
more settled ideas in the many zImage patches flying around at the
moment.

This patch series needs to be applied on top of patches 4-7 from
Milton Miller's recent series, and patch number 2 from Scott Wood's
most recent cuboot series (patch 1 from that series having already
been applied to powerpc.git).

[PATCH 2/4] powerpc: Add device tree utility functions to zImage

[David Gibson]

This patch adds a library of useful device tree manipulation functions
to the zImage library, for use by platform code.  These functions are
based on the hooks already in dt_ops, so they're not dependent on a
particular device tree implementation.  This patch also slightly
streamlines the code in main.c using these new functions.

This is a consolidation of my work in this area with Scott Wood's
patches to a very similar end.

Re: [PATCH 2/4] powerpc: Add device tree utility functions to zImage

[Milton Miller]

Following your reply to Scott's comments about space in the xlate_reg
thread, how about splitting the ones used in main.c which will always
be included from the others that are more for device tree pokers.

For that matter, your streamlining adds runtime overhead.  Why not
cache the checked or created phandle?

Also, in dt_path_getprop, did you want to call finddevice instead of
testing the function is not weak and undefined?

Yeah, I guess.

> cache the checked or created phandle?

Well, I made a judgeement that source simplicity was more valuable
than runtime speed.  However, in the second spin, I've reconsidered
and gotten rid of the dt_path_{get,set}prop functions entirely which
addresses both concerns above.

> Also, in dt_path_getprop, did you want to call finddevice instead of

Yes.  Fixed now.

So this is done early, and unconditional now?  Just
double checking, not enough context (for me, anyway)
in the patch itself.

[PATCH 1/4] powerpc: Add gcc format warnings to zImage printf()

[David Gibson]

This patch adds the correct attributes to the zImage's versions of
printf to make gcc generate format string mismatch warnings.  It also
corrects several minor problems with format strings in the zImage thus
discovered.

[PATCH 4/4] powerpc: New reg.h for the zImage

[David Gibson]

This patch adds a reg.h to the zImage code, with common definitions
for accessing system reigsters.  For now, this includes functions for
retreiving the PVR and the stack pointer.  This patch then uses the
new reg.h to let start() display the running stack address without
having to explicitly pass the stack as a parameter from the asm code.

[PATCH 3/4] powerpc: Clean up zImage handling of the command line

[David Gibson]

This patch cleans up how the zImage code manipulates the kernel
command line.  Notable improvements from the old handling:
	- Command line manipulation is consolidated into a new
prep_cmdline() function, rather than being scattered across start()
and some helper functions
	- Less stack space use: we use just a single global command
line buffer, which can be initialized by an external tool as before,
we no longer need another command line sized buffer on the stack.
	- Easier to support platforms whose firmware passes a
commandline, but not a device tree.  Platform code can now point new
loader_info fields to the firmware's command line, rather than having
to do early manipulation of the /chosen bootargs property which may
then be rewritten again by the core.

[0/4] Further zImage work (spin 2)

[David Gibson]

Ok, here's a revised version of that last series of zImage work.  This
now applies on top of the for-2.6.22 branch of powerpc.git, plus
Milton's latest zImage patch series.

[PATCH 1/4] powerpc: Add gcc format warnings to zImage printf()

[David Gibson]

This patch adds the correct attributes to the zImage's versions of
printf to make gcc generate format string mismatch warnings.  It also
corrects several minor problems with format strings in the zImage thus
discovered.

[PATCH 2/4] powerpc: Add device tree utility functions to zImage

[David Gibson]

This patch adds a library of useful device tree manipulation functions
to the zImage library, for use by platform code.  These functions are
based on the hooks already in dt_ops, so they're not dependent on a
particular device tree implementation.  This patch also slightly
streamlines the code in main.c using these new functions.

This is a consolidation of my work in this area with Scott Wood's
patches to a very similar end.

[PATCH 4/4] powerpc: New reg.h for the zImage

[David Gibson]

This patch adds a reg.h to the zImage code, with common definitions
for accessing system reigsters.  For now, this includes functions for
retreiving the PVR and the stack pointer.  This patch then uses the
new reg.h to let start() display the running stack address without
having to explicitly pass the stack as a parameter from the asm code.

[PATCH 3/4] powerpc: Clean up zImage handling of the command line

[David Gibson]

This patch cleans up how the zImage code manipulates the kernel
command line.  Notable improvements from the old handling:
	- Command line manipulation is consolidated into a new
prep_cmdline() function, rather than being scattered across start()
and some helper functions
	- Less stack space use: we use just a single global command
line buffer, which can be initialized by an external tool as before,
we no longer need another command line sized buffer on the stack.
	- Easier to support platforms whose firmware passes a
commandline, but not a device tree.  Platform code can now point new
loader_info fields to the firmware's command line, rather than having
to do early manipulation of the /chosen bootargs property which may
then be rewritten again by the core.
