  • When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
    there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
    area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
    with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
    Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
    line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
    and with slightly different comment styles than us.

    In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
    and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

    This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
    license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
    contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
    and have introduced one.

  • In the "Getting Started with Coccinelle - KVM edition" presentation that
    has been held by Julia Lawall at the KVM forum 2015 (see the slides at
    http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/tutorial_kvm_0.pdf),
    she pointed out some bad return value checks in U-Boot that can be
    detected with Coccinelle by using the following config file:

    @@
    identifier x,y;
    identifier f;
    statement S;
    @@
    x = f(...);
    (
    if (x < 0) S
    |
    if (
    - y
    + x
    < 0) S
    )

    This patch now fixes these issues.

  • When variable size SPL is used, the BL1 expects the SPL to be
    encapsulated differently: instead of putting the checksum at a fixed
    offset in the SPL blob, prepend the blob with a header including the
    size and the checksum.

    The enhancements include
    - adding a command line option, '--vs' to indicate the need for the
    variable size encapsulation
    - padding the fixed size encapsulated blob with 0xff instead of random
    memory contents
    - do not silently truncate the input file, report error instead
    - no need to explicitly closing files/freeing memory, this all happens
    on exit; removing cleanups it makes code clearer
    - profuse commenting
    - modify Makefile to allow enabling the new feature per board
