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.

All currently available 4xx derivats have the I2C bootstrap EEPROM
located on I2C bus number 0. This patch now first sets this bus number,
so that the chip_config command also works for board with multiple
I2C busses, like Katmai.

This patch adds a generic command for programming I2C bootstrap
eeproms on PPC4xx. An implementation for Canyonlands board is
included.
The command name is intentionally chosen not to be PPC4xx specific.
This way other CPU's/SoC's can implement a similar command under
the same name, perhaps with a different syntax.
Usage on Canyonlands:
=> chip_config
Available configurations (I2C address 0x52):
600-nor - NOR CPU: 600 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
600-nand - NAND CPU: 600 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
800-nor - NOR CPU: 800 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
800-nand - NAND CPU: 800 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
1000-nor - NOR CPU:1000 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
1000-nand - NAND CPU:1000 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
1066-nor - NOR CPU:1066 PLB: 266 OPB: 88 EBC: 88 ***
1066-nand - NAND CPU:1066 PLB: 266 OPB: 88 EBC: 88
=> chip_config 600-nor
Using configuration:
600-nor - NOR CPU: 600 PLB: 200 OPB: 100 EBC: 100
done (dump via 'i2c md 52 0.1 10')
Reset the board for the changes to take effect
Other 4xx boards will be migrated to use this command soon
as well.
