The nios2-io.h defines hardware registers and bits of several FPGA
IP cores. It could be divided in to the specific drivers, including
altera timer, altera sysid, altera uart and altera jtag uart. The
altera pio and altera spi drivers use their own hardware definitions.
The removal of nios2-io.h will help modularity and maintenance.

The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands. Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".
This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */ while (*++*argv) {
switch (**argv) {
case 'd':
debug++;
break;
...
default:
usage ();
}
}
}
...
}
The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell. With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
error: increment of read-only location '*argv'
N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
char *arg = *argv;
while (*++arg) {
switch (*arg) {
...

Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.
Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.
This patch cleans this up - for example:
Before:
=> help dtt
dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.
After:
=> help dtt
dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat
Usage:
dtt

Remove command name from all command "usage" fields and update
common/command.c to display "name - usage" instead of
just "usage". Also remove newlines from command usage fields.

-Fix asm/io.h macros
-Eliminate use of CACHE_BYPASS in cpu code
-Eliminate assembler warnings
-Fix mini-app stubs and force no small data
1: - board/altera/common/flash.c:flash_erase():
o allow interrupts befor get_timer() call
o check-up each erased sector and avoid unexpected timeouts
- board/altera/dk1c20/dk1s10.c:board_early_init_f():
o enclose sevenseg_set() in cpp condition
- remove the ASMI configuration for DK1S10_standard_32 (never present)
- fix some typed in mistakes in the NIOS documentation
2: - split DK1C20 configuration into several header files:
o two new files for each NIOS CPU description
o U-Boot related part is remaining in DK1C20.h
3: - split DK1S10 configuration into several header files:
o two new files for each NIOS CPU description
o U-Boot related part is remaining in DK1S10.h
4: - Add support for the Microtronix Linux Development Kit
NIOS CPU configuration at the Altera Nios Development Kit,
Stratix Edition (DK-1S10)
5: - Add documentation for the Altera Nios Development Kit,
Stratix Edition (DK-1S10)
6: - Add support for the Nios Serial Peripharel Interface (SPI)
(master only)
7: - Add support for the common U-Boot SPI framework at
RTC driver DS1306
before we can access it; add delay in case we are faster (with no
CF card inserted)
* Cleanup of some init functions
* Make sure SCC Ethernet is always stopped by the time we boot Linux
to avoid Linux crashes by early packets coming in.
* Accelerate flash accesses on LWMON board by using buffered writes
- more documentation for NIOS port
- new struct nios_pio_t, struct nios_spi_t
- Reconfiguration for NIOS Development Kit DK1C20:
o move board related code from board/dk1c20
to board/altera/dk1c20
o create a new common source path board/altera/common
and move generic flash access stuff into it
o change/expand configuration file DK1C20.h
- Add support for NIOS Development Kit DK1S10
- Add status LED support for NIOS systems
- Add dual 7-segment LED support for Altera NIOS DevKits
- add support for Altera Nios-32 CPU
- add support for Nios Cyclone Development Kit (DK-1C20)
* Patch by Steven Scholz, 29 Sep 2003:
- A second parameter for bootm overwrites the load address for
"Standalone Application" images.
- bootm sets environment variable "filesize" to the resulting
(uncompressed) data length for "Standalone Application" images
when autostart is set to "no". Now you can do something like
if bootm $fpgadata $some_free_ram ; then
fpga load 0 $some_free_ram $filesize
fi
* Patch by Denis Peter, 25 Sept 2003:
add support for the MIP405 Rev. C board
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
- split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c)
* Patches by Kenneth Johansson, 25 Jun 2003:
- major rework of command structure
(work done mostly by Michal Cendrowski and Joakim Kristiansen)
