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) {

It is better to read ivr and react on it than do long parsing from
two regs. Interrupt controller returs actual irq number.

I would like to handle case where system doesn't contain
intc that's why I need timer initialization out of intc code.

This is a compatibility step that allows both the older form
and the new form to co-exist for a while until the older can
be removed entirely.
All transformations are of the form:
Before:
#if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)
After:
#if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)

timer support
interrupt controller support
flash support
ethernet support
cache support
board information support
env support
booting image support
adding support for Xilinx ML401
- 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)
