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) {
...

This patch adds flush_/invalidate_dcache_range() to the MIPS architecture.
Those functions are needed for the upcoming dcache support for the USB
EHCI driver. I chose this API because those cache handling functions are
already present in the PPC architecture.

This patch will move au1x00_eth_initialize from net/eth.c to cpu_eth_init
as a part of ongoing eth_initialize cleanup work. The function ret value
is also fixed as it should be negative on fail.

Cache operations have to take line address (addr), not start_addr.
I noticed this bug when debugging ping failure.

We do Hit_Writeback_Inv_D and Hit_Invalidate_I. You might think that you
don't need to do Hit_Invalidate_I, but flush_cache() needs it since this
function is used not only in U-Boot specfic programs but also at loading
target binaries.
