  • You do not need to use the typedefs provided by compiler.

    Our compilers are either IPL32 or LP64. Hence, U-Boot can/should
    always use int-ll64.h typedefs like Linux kernel, whatever the
    typedefs the compiler internally uses.

  • 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.

  • When Kconfig for U-boot was examined, one of the biggest issues was
    how to support multiple images (Normal, SPL, TPL). There were
    actually two options, "single .config" and "multiple .config".
    After some discussions and thought experiments, I chose the latter,
    i.e. to create ".config", "spl/.config", "tpl/.config" for Normal,
    SPL, TPL, respectively.

    It is true that the "multiple .config" strategy provided us the
    maximum flexibility and helped to avoid duplicating CONFIGs among
    Normal, SPL, TPL, but I have noticed some fatal problems:

    [1] It is impossible to share CONFIG options across the images.
    If you change the configuration of Main image, you often have to
    adjust some SPL configurations correspondingly. Currently, we
    cannot handle the dependencies between them. It means one of the
    biggest advantages of Kconfig is lost.

    [2] It is too painful to change both ".config" and "spl/.config".
    Sunxi guys started to work around this problem by creating a new
    configuration target. Commit cbdd9a9737cc (sunxi: kconfig: Add
    %_felconfig rule to enable FEL build of sunxi platforms.) added
    "make *_felconfig" to enable CONFIG_SPL_FEL on both images.
    Changing the configuration of multiple images in one command is a
    generic demand. The current implementation cannot propose any
    good solution about this.

    [3] Kconfig files are getting ugly and difficult to understand.
    Commit b724bd7d6349 (dm: Kconfig: Move CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN to
    Kconfig) has sprinkled "if !SPL_BUILD" over the Kconfig files.

    [4] The build system got more complicated than it should be.
    To adjust Linux-originated Kconfig to U-Boot, the helper script
    "scripts/multiconfig.sh" was introduced. Writing a complicated
    text processor is a shell script sometimes caused problems.

    Now I believe the "single .config" will serve us better. With it,
    all the problems above would go away. Instead, we will have to add
    some CONFIG_SPL_* (and CONFIG_TPL_*) options such as CONFIG_SPL_DM,
    but we will not have much. Anyway, this is what we do now in
    scripts/Makefile.spl.

    I admit my mistake with my apology and this commit switches to the
    single .config configuration.

    It is not so difficult to do that:

    - Remove unnecessary processings from scripts/multiconfig.sh
    This file will remain for a while to support the current defconfig
    format. It will be removed after more cleanups are done.

    - Adjust some makefiles and Kconfigs

    - Add some entries to include/config_uncmd_spl.h and the new file
    scripts/Makefile.uncmd_spl. Some CONFIG options that are not
    supported on SPL must be disabled because one .config is shared
    between SPL and U-Boot proper going forward. I know this is not
    a beautiful solution and I think we can do better, but let's see
    how much we will have to describe them.

    - update doc/README.kconfig

    More cleaning up patches will follow this.

  • This commit enables Kconfig.
    Going forward, we use Kconfig for the board configuration.
    mkconfig will never be used. Nor will include/config.mk be generated.

    Kconfig must be adjusted for U-Boot because our situation is
    a little more complicated than Linux Kernel.
    We have to generate multiple boot images (Normal, SPL, TPL)
    from one source tree.
    Each image needs its own configuration input.

    Usage:

    Run "make _defconfig" to do the board configuration.

    It will create the .config file and additionally spl/.config, tpl/.config
    if SPL, TPL is enabled, respectively.

    You can use "make config", "make menuconfig" etc. to create
    a new .config or modify the existing one.

    Use "make spl/config", "make spl/menuconfig" etc. for spl/.config
    and do likewise for tpl/.config file.

    The generic syntax of configuration targets for SPL, TPL is:

    /

    Here, is either 'spl' or 'tpl'
    is 'config', 'menuconfig', 'xconfig', etc.

    When the configuration is done, run "make".
    (Or "make _defconfig all" will do the configuration and build
    in one time.)

    For futher information of how Kconfig works in U-Boot,
    please read the comment block of scripts/multiconfig.py.

    By the way, there is another item worth remarking here:
    coexistence of Kconfig and board herder files.

    Prior to Kconfig, we used C headers to define a set of configs.

    We expect a very long term to migrate from C headers to Kconfig.
    Two different infractructure must coexist in the interim.

    In our former configuration scheme, include/autoconf.mk was generated
    for use in makefiles.
    It is still generated under include/, spl/include/, tpl/include/ directory
    for the Normal, SPL, TPL image, respectively.

  • Kbuild brought about many advantages for us but a significant
    performance regression was reported by Simon Glass.

    After some discussions and analysis, it turned out
    its main cause is in $(call cc-option,...).

    Historically, U-Boot parses all config.mk
    (arch/*/config.mk and board/*/config.mk)
    every time descending into subdirectories.
    That means cc-options are evaluated over and over again.

    $(call cc-option,...) is useful but costly.
    So we want to evaluate them only in ./Makefile
    and spl/Makefile and export compiler flags.

    This commit changes the build system as follows:

    - Modify scripts/Makefile.build to not include config.mk
    Instead, add $(PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS) to asflags-y, ccflags-y,
    cppflags-y.

    - Export many variables
    Going forward, Kbuild will not parse config.mk files
    when it descends into subdirectories.
    If we want to set variables in config.mk and use them
    in subdirectories, they must be exported.

    This is the list of variables to get exported:
    PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS
    CPUDIR
    BOARDDIR
    OBJCOPYFLAGS
    LDFLAGS
    LDFLAGS_FINAL
    (used in nand_spl/board/*/*/Makefile)
    CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
    (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)
    SYM_PREFIX
    (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)
    RELFLAGS
    (used in examples/standalone/Makefile)

    - Delete CPPFLAGS
    This variable has been replaced with PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS

    - Copy gcclibdir from example/standalone/Makefile
    to arch/sparc/config.mk
    The reference in CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR must be
    resolved before it is exported.

  • U-Boot has compelled all boards to have
    board/${BOARD}/ or board/${VENDOR}/${BOARD}/ directory.

    Sometimes it does not seem suitable for some boards,
    for example Sandbox. (Is it a board?)

    And arcangel4 board has nothing to compile
    under the board directory.

    This commit makes the build system more flexible:
    If '' is given to the 6th column (=Board name) of boards.cfg,
    Kbuild will not descend into the board directory.

  • This commit changes the location of include directives
    of board configuration files.

    The purpose of this change is:
    - Slim down $(TOPDIR)/config.mk
    - Prevent $(TOPDIR)/Makefile from including the same
    configuration file twice
    - Do not include include/config.mk multiple times
    because ARCH, CPU, BOARD, VENDOR, SOC are exported

    Before this commit:

    - include/autoconf.mk was included from $(TOPDIR)/Makefile
    and $(TOPDIR)/config.mk
    (This means $(TOPDIR)/Makefile included include/autoconf.mk twice)

    - include/{spl,tpl}-autoconf.mk was included from $(TOPDIR)/config.mk

    and $(TOPDIR)/config.mk
    (This means $(TOPDIR)/Makefile included include/config.mk twice)

    - include/autoconf.mk is included from $(TOPDIR)/Makefile
    and $(TOPDIR)/scripts/Makefile.build

    - include/{spl,tpl}-autoconf.mk is included from $(TOPDIR)/spl/Makefile

  • Now we are ready to switch over to real Kbuild.

    This commit disables temporary scripts:
    scripts/{Makefile.build.tmp, Makefile.host.tmp}
    and enables real Kbuild scripts:
    scripts/{Makefile.build,Makefile.host,Makefile.lib}.

    This switch is triggered by the line in scripts/Kbuild.include
    -build := -f $(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/)scripts/Makefile.build.tmp obj
    +build := -f $(if $(KBUILD_SRC),$(srctree)/)scripts/Makefile.build obj

    We need to adjust some build scripts for U-Boot.
    But smaller amount of modification is preferable.

    Additionally, we need to fix compiler flags which are
    locally added or removed.

    In Kbuild, it is not allowed to change CFLAGS locally.
    Instead, ccflags-y, asflags-y, cppflags-y,
    CFLAGS_$(basetarget).o, CFLAGS_REMOVE_$(basetarget).o
    are prepared for that purpose.

  • This commit changes the working directory
    where the build process occurs.

    Before this commit, build process occurred under the source
    tree for both in-tree and out-of-tree build.

    That's why we needed to add $(obj) prefix to all generated
    files in makefiles like follows:
    $(obj)u-boot.bin: $(obj)u-boot

    Here, $(obj) is empty for in-tree build, whereas it points
    to the output directory for out-of-tree build.

    And our old build system changes the current working directory
    with "make -C " syntax when descending into the
    sub-directories.

    On the other hand, Kbuild uses a different idea
    to handle out-of-tree build and directory descending.

    The build process of Kbuild always occurs under the output tree.
    When "O=dir/to/store/output/files" is given, the build system
    changes the current working directory to that directory and
    restarts the make.

    Kbuild uses "make -f $(srctree)/scripts/Makefile.build obj="
    syntax for descending into sub-directories.
    (We can write it like "make $(obj)=" with a shorthand.)
    This means the current working directory is always the top
    of the output directory.

    Changing SHELL may cause unpredictable side effects
    whose root cause is usually difficult to find.
    We should use a generic variable name "CONFIG_SHELL".

    We should not use the syntax as follows either:

  • Due to the nand SPL on some board(e.g. P1022DS)has a size limit, it can
    not be more than 4K. So, the SPL cannot initialize the DDR with the SPD
    code. This patch introduces TPL to enable a loader stub that is loaded
    by the code from the SPL. It initializes the DDR with the SPD or other
    operations.

    The TPL's size is sizeable, the maximum size is decided by the memory's
