Do we need such controller dependent declarations in netdev.h?
FWIW board_eth_init() is reasonable for me.

And I know we need to go on a step-by-step basis, do you have any
plan to have register/unregister interfaces?

Ah, remove the last 2 lines :-)

[This comment is not for Ben, but for everyone.]

Do we need such alias to empty function? Only __attribute((weak)) is
enough for me. If we have some default behavior which isn't empty, I
can see the weak & alias. Thought?

I would prefer to move this init code not into the board code but into the 
platform/cpu code. Speaking for PPC4xx, here all configuration I know of have 
the same init code. And copying this into all board ports instead on one 
place in the cpu directory seems "imperfect".

Using a weak definition for this board_eth_init() would make this possible. 
The cpu code would define the function with the default 4xx init code, and 
the board code could overwrite it. But unfortunately you already introduced 
such a weak reference to this function in eth.c.

How can this be handled better? Any ideas?

Best regards,
Stefan

But the ethernet configuration *is* actually bord dependent. A  board
may  or  may  not  use  all  the  ethernet  interfaces  present  on a
processor, or it may have additional network controllers attached for
example to the PCI bus, etc.

So you vote for adding this code to more than 80 4xx boards that all would use 
the same code here? I don't like this. I would prefer one instance in the cpu 
directory which could be overridden if needed by a board specific version.

Best regards,
Stefan

Why not have both, a board and a CPU dependant init function like USB?

We agree that this should be implemented at the highest possible
level, i. e. with touching as little files as possible.

I just wanted to point out that this is  actually  a  board  specific
thing, while you said "all configuration I know of have the same init
code."

All I'm asking for is to make sure that this can be configured  in  a
board  specific  way.  If  there  is a zensible default setting which
covers most cases without need for board-specific stuff  that's  just
all the better.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

How about something like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_ETH_INIT_DEFAULT
        CFG_ETH_INIT_DEFAULT(bis);
#else
        board_eth_init(bis);
#endif

and then in your 4xx header files put

#define CONFIG_ETH_INIT_DEFAULT
#define CFG_ETH_INIT_DEFAULT(x) ppc_4xx_eth_initialize(x)

OTOH, what I really want to do is gut the concept of drivers getting
configuration info from board header files.  For example, I'd much
rather have board code pass PHY information to the driver than have
the driver get it via #CONFIG ETH1_PHY_ADDR, if you know what I mean.
Obviously, getting to that point is a huge undertaking probably
touching hundreds of files.  I'm willing to do it as long as resources
exist to test on hardware that I don't have.

Ben

Weak functions with no alias are NULL. You can test the value of 
board_eth_init before calling
or you can provide an alias so there are no surprises. If you don't do 
one or the other... exceptions happen.
Personally, I prefer to have an alias.

[U-Boot-Users] [OT] Using MTD to manipulate CFI flash on PCI boards?

[David Hawkins]

Hi,

Sorry, for the slightly off-topic post, but I figured
someone else might have faced a similar issue.

I'm in the process of bringing up an MPC8349E PowerPC
based board. The board is configured as a compact PCI
peripheral board. The board will boot U-Boot off
on-board Spansion S29GL-N Flash, and U-Boot will then
boot Linux. The cPCI interface is used to communicate
with an x86 host CPU board.

The final system will have 15 boards per cPCI crate, and
there will be 8 crates. I can use a BDI2000 to program
the Flash on a board, but this doesn't scale so well
when wanting to perform Flash updates on crates full
of boards using the x86 host CPU.

Basically I'll have a setup where an x86 host can see
the Flash on the PowerPC boards via PCI memory regions.
In the case of a new board with a blank flash, the
PowerPC core will be held in reset, so without using
JTAG/COP, only the x86 host CPU can program the flash.

As far as flash manipulation from a PowerPC on a single
board goes, I figured that once I have U-Boot and Linux
working, I would just use the MTD subsystem.

However, its less clear to me whether I can use MTD
on the x86 Linux host CPU, to access the flash devices
on multiple boards via the PCI bus.

The documentation at:

http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/

wasn't much help, so I'll go and look at the code.

So while I go read some more, I figured I'd ask if
anyone else has used the MTD system in a similar way
for programming their flash.

Recommendations anyone?

Thanks!

Regards,
Dave.

Thanks for clarifying. Now what I feel annoying is turned out to having
an empty function with *another* name, such as `__foo() against foo()'.

Find the patch below:
 - change weak usage
 - change netdev.h usage

FWIW I think this is easier to read wrt the relationship between `weak'
and `overridden'. I'm not going to argue with someone, though.

Using Markus's idea, why not use a cpu (platform) specific *and* a board 
specific init function, both with an empty weak alias in the common eth.c 
code:

	cpu_eth_init(bis);
	board_eth_init(bis);

I thought about this some more, and the problem is that cpu_eth_init() and board_eth_init()
are mutually exclusive, with board_eth_init() having a higher priority.
I think the following will work, but would appreciate some feedback.

-----

int board_eth_init(bd_t *bis) __attribute(weak);
int cpu_eth_init(bd_t *bis) __attribute(weak);

.
.
.

if (board_eth_init)
	board_eth_init(bis);
else if (cpu_eth_init)
	cpu_eth_init(bis);

-----

This gets rid of the pointless aliases and gives precedence to the board-specific initialization.

Ben

I think you must enable full relocation, CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS, to
make the "if (board_eth_init)" work. This is just a guess though.

You could do too:

Per an earlier discussion on how weak functions are implemented, these 
are not equivalent.  Functions marked "weak" *without* a weak 
implementation become NULL pointers.  The code
	if (board_eth_init)
		board_eth_init(bis);
	else if (cpu_eth_init)
		cpu_eth_init(bis);
uses that knowledge to see if the weak function board_eth_init() exists 
and then calls it if it does.  If it doesn't exist, it sees if 
cpu_eth_init() exists and calls it if it does.

Your counter proposal assumes that a weak function board_eth_init() 
*does* exist and uses the returned result as the condition of executing 
cpu_eth_init() (assuming it also exists).

If you define a weak function that simply returns failure, your 
alternative is close, but still not the same because an overridden 
(*real*) board_eth_init() could return failure too, in which case it 
will (probably erroneously) execute cpu_eth_init().  Beyond that, if 
cpu_eth_init() doesn't exist (doesn't have a default weak function 
defined), the call to it will go *SPLAT*.

I'm not sure that's necessarily the case.  Imagine, for instance, an
85xx board that (for some reason) has on-board ethernet.  I believe
some of the DS systems do this.  So the 85xx has 4 nics which the SOC
knows how to initialize.  But the board has an additional driver to
init.  Why not just allow them both?

Image a board that doesn't want all CPU (SoC) interfaces to get initialized. 
If for such a board a cpu-specific init routine exists, there is no chance to 
not enable (init) all those cpu interfaces as done in cpu_eth_init().

With this approach of mutually exclusive routines, it could define it's 
board_eth_init() and init only the Soc interfaces really needed. Plus 
additional ones of course.

Does this make sense?

Stefan

All true, I was thinking that there would be default weak dummy versions
of both board_eth_init() and cpu_eth_init() that would do the
right thing. To address the weakness you spotted one would need three
return values, something like:
 -1 fail
  0 not impl.
  1 success

Well, it makes sense to a degree.  However, we already have a
mechanism for enabling or disabling individual interfaces.  The config
file for each board can be used to determine which interfaces are
setup by the cpu_eth_init() function.  I don't really object to having
them mutually exclusive.  But I suspect the most common use case would
become:

board_eth_init()
{
     my_special_eth_init(bis);

     cpu_eth_init(bis);
}

And if everyone's going to do that, why bother making the functions
mutually exclusive?

With the current incarnation of network code, that would be a common
use case.  However, I really don't like having interface-specific
#defines in the config file, since it doesn't jibe well with kconfig
and is just ugly.  You know what I'm talking about - #define
CONFIG_TSEC1_PHY_FLAGS etc. (I made this up, but I'm sure there are
definitions like it)  The main reason I went through this exercise is
to move towards a point where all but the most trivial Ethernet
controllers are initialized in board code, allowing us to pass PHY
info, feature flags etc. on a per-interface basis.

Ben

Eww...no, please don't do that. Function prototypes belong in header
files. By adding extern declarations all over the place, the compiler
won't notice if the caller and callee get out of sync.

Having a header file full of driver-specific declarations does increase
the chances of conflicts, but I think it's worth it. It's definitely an
improvement over the old code. And the conflicts will be absolutely
trivial.

Why?

The whole point about this exercise is to get rid of board-specific
knowledge in the common code. What is the purpose of cpu_eth_init()?

Because on PPC4xx for example, all boards are using exactly the same eth_init 
code (for the SoC interfaces). And I don't like adding this code to more than 
80 boards.

All 80 boards have exactly the same ethernet interface (i.e. same kind
of PHY, same MII address, etc.)?

Can't you just add a weak definition of board_eth_init() in the CPU
code then?

Yes, same SoC ethernet interfaces. Currently PHY address etc is configured via

No. The weak definition is already in net/eth.c.

Judging by the number of #ifdefs in ppc_4xx_eth_initialize, that
function contains quite a bit of board-specific code.

Make it non-weak then. If a platform wants to implement board-specific
ethernet init code as #ifdef hell, it should be free to do so. I don't
think we should add workarounds in the generic code for such platforms
though.

I just thought that, a header file full of driver-specific declarations,
is somewhat ugly. But I don't have a definite opinion now, so will leave

Most of it is not board-specific, but platform-specific. This driver handles 
all 4xx EMAC variants and there are quite a lot. But basically you are 
correct.

In net/eth.c? It can't get overwritten then.

I could use board_eth_init() as a common PPC4xx platform code. But I would 
loose the chance being able to implement a "real" board specific 
board_eth_init() for some boards in the future then.

Yeah, but the platform-specific bits are normal for a platform-specific
driver. I just think that ideally, the board-specific bits should be
split out and placed in board_eth_init() for each board.

I mean the cpu-specific one. The generic "fallback" function should
stay weak.

Yeah...it would be bad to prevent future boards from doing the right
thing...

How about you do an internal split in cpu/ppc4xx/4xx_enet.c first,
placing the truly platform-specfic bits in a separate function that can
be called by "new-style" boards, and the board-specific bits in
board_eth_init(), serving as a wrapper around the platform-specific
init function, with as many #ifdefs as needed in order to handle the
existing differences between the boards. This function could be
conditional on CONFIG_PPC4XX_LEGACY_BOARD_ETH_INIT or something so that
boards can be migrated to the new API one by one.

U-Boot could really use a Janitor team ;-)

Good idea, but unfortunately I have no time to do this in the next few 
days/weeks. So no basic rework of the 4xx emac init code in this merge 
window. At least not from me. Patches as always welcome. :)

The functions must be declared somewhere, but declaring them at the
callsite is not only ugly, but error-prone as well.

One alternative might be to add one header file per driver and put the
declarations there. Maybe we should add a include/netdev directory for
network driver-specific header files?

No, I like the way I did it with a single header file for all 
interfaces.  It's not ugly - externs in every board file or a directory 
of tiny header files or the existing #ifdef mess is ugly.  One header 
file means one-stop-shopping for finding a controller's interface.  The 
only thing that might be better is to #include netdev.h in common.h, 
getting rid of the requirement to include it in each board file.  OTOH, 
cascading header files is itself an ugly practice.  In an entirely 
biased way, I think the way I've implemented this is a big improvement 
over the status quo and should make things easier going forward.

I think we should try to make common.h smaller, not bigger. Requiring
the board code that does netdev setup to include netdev.h is very
appropriate IMO.

I completely agree.

Btw, if we require the list of prototypes in netdev.h to be kept in
alphabetical order (or some other sort of "random" order instead of
adding stuff at the end), we might reduce the probability of conflicts
slightly.
