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) {

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

Add a disable sub-command to the cpu command that allows for disabling
cores in multicore processors. This can be useful for systems that are
using multicore chips but aren't utilizing all the cores as a way to
reduce power and possibly improve performance.
Also updated an added missing copyright.

This change has 3 goals:
- Have secondary cores be released into spin loops at their 'true'
address in SDRAM. Previously, secondary cores were put into spin
loops in the 0xfffffxxx address range which required that boot page
translation was always enabled while cores were in their spin loops.
- Allow the TLB window that the primary core uses to access the
secondary cores boot page to be placed at any address. Previously, a
TLB window at 0xfffff000 was always used to access the seconary cores'
boot page. This TLB address requirement overlapped with other
peripherals on some boards (eg XPedite5370). By default, the boot
page TLB will still use the 0xfffffxxx address range, but this can be
overridden on a board-by-board basis by defining a custom
CONFIG_BPTR_VIRT_ADDR. Note that the TLB used to map the boot page
remains in use while U-Boot executes. Previously it was only
temporarily used, then restored to its initial value.
- Allow Boot Page Translation to be disabled on bootup. Previously,
Boot Page Translation was always left enabled after secondary cores
were brought out of reset. This caused the 0xfffffxxx address range
to somewhat "magically" be translated to an address in SDRAM. Some
boards may not want this oddity in their memory map, so defining
CONFIG_MPC8xxx_DISABLE_BPTR will turn off Boot Page Translation after
the secondary cores are initialized.
These changes are only applicable to 85xx boards with CONFIG_MP defined.

The CoreNet platform style of bringing secondary cores out of reset is
a bit different that the PQ3 style. Mostly the registers that we use
to setup boot translation, enable time bases, and boot release the cores
have moved around.

Its possible that we try and copy the boot page code out of flash into a
DDR location that doesn't have a TLB cover it. For example, if we have
3G of DDR we typically only map the first 2G. In the cases of 4G+ this
wasn't an issue since the reset page TLB mapping covered the last page
of memory which we wanted to copy to.
We now change the physical address of the reset page TLB to map to the
true physical location of the boot page code, copy and than set the
TLB back to its 1:1 mapping of the reset page.

The number of CPUs are getting detected dynamically by checking the
processor SVR value. Also removed CONFIG_NUM_CPUS references from all
the platforms with 85xx/86xx processors.
This can help to use the same u-boot image across the platforms.

Match determine_mp_bootpg() that was added for 86xx. We need this to
address a bug introduced in v2009.03 with 86xx MP booting. We have to
make sure to reserve the region of memory used for the MP bootpg() so
other u-boot code doesn't use it.
Also added a comment about how cpu_reset() is dealing w/an errata on
early 85xx MP HW.

* adjust __spin_table alignment to match ePAPR v0.94 spec
* loop over all cpus when determing who is up. This fixes an issue if
the "boot cpu" isn't core0. The "boot cpu" will already be in the
cpu_up_mask so there is no harm
* Added some protection in the code to ensure proper behavior. These
changes are explicitly needed but don't hurt:
- Added eieio to ensure the "hot word" of the table is written after
all other table updates have occurred.
- Added isync to ensure we don't prefetch loading of table entries
until we a released
These issues we raised by Dave Liu.
