| |
| Identify: |

| |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV if defined, stdin, stdout and stderr used from |
| the values stored in the evironment. |
| |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE if defined, console_overwrite() decides if the |
| values stored in the environment or the standard |

| |
| |
| Changes: |
| ======== |
| |
| Added Devices: |
| ============== |
| |
| Floppy support: |
| --------------- |
| Support of a standard floppy disk controller at address CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_BASE_ADDRESS |
| + 0x3F0. Enabled with define CONFIG_CMD_FDC. Reads a unformated floppy disk |
| with a image header (see: mkimage). No interrupts and no DMA are used for this. |
| Added files: |
| - common/cmd_fdc.c |
| - include/cmd_fdc.h |
| |
| SCSI support: |
| ------------- |
| Support for Symbios SYM53C810A chip. Implemented as follows: |
| - without disconnect |
| - only asynchrounous |
| - multiple LUN support (caution, needs a lot of RAM. define CONFIG_SYS_SCSI_MAX_LUN 1 to |
| save RAM) |
| - multiple SCSI ID support |
| - no write support |
| - analyses the MAC, DOS and ISO pratition similar to the IDE support |
| - allows booting from SCSI devices similar to the IDE support. |
| The device numbers are not assigned like they are within the IDE support. The first |
| device found will get the number 0, the next 1 etc. If all SCSI IDs (0..6) and all |
| LUNs (8) are enabled, 56 boot devices are possible. This uses a lot of RAM since the |
| device descriptors are not yet dynamically allocated. 56 boot devices are overkill |
| anyway. Please refer to the section "Todo" chapter "block device support enhancement". |
| The SYM53C810A uses 1 Interrupt and must be able of mastering the PCI bus. |
| Added files: |
| - common/cmd_scsi.c |
| - common/board.c |
| - include/cmd_scsi.h |
| - include/scsi.h |
| - board/pip405/sym53c8xx.c |
| - board/pip405/sym53c8xx_defs.h |
| |
| ATAPI support (IDE changes): |
| ---------------------------- |
| Added ATAPI support (with CONFIG_ATAPI) in the file cmd_ide.c. |
| To support a hardreset, when the IDE reset pin is not connected to the |
| CONFIG_SYS_PC_IDE_RESET pin, the switch CONFIG_IDE_RESET_ROUTINE has been added. When |
| this switch is enabled the routine void ide_set_reset(int idereset) must be |
| within the board specific files. |
| Only read from ATAPI devices are supported. |
| Found out that the function trim_trail cuts off the last character if the whole |
| string is filled. Added function cpy_ident instead, which trims also leading |
| spaces and copies the string in the buffer. |
| Changed files: |
| - common/cmd_ide.c |
| - include/ata.h |
| |
| ISO partition support: |
| ---------------------- |
| Added CD boot support for El-Torito bootable ISO CDs. The bootfile image must contain |
| the U-Boot image header. Since CDs do not have "partitions", the boot partition is 0. |
| The bootcatalog feature has not been tested so far. CD Boot is supported for ATAPI |
| ("diskboot") and SCSI ("scsiboot") devices. |
| Added files: |
| - disk/iso_part.c |
| - disk/iso_part.h |
| |
| Block device changes: |
| --------------------- |
| To allow the use of dos_part.c, mac_part.c and iso_part.c, the parameter |
| blk_desc will be used when accessing the functions in these files. The block |
| device descriptor (blk_desc) contains a pointer to the read routine of the |
| device, which will be used to read blocks from the device. |
| Renamed function ide_print to dev_print and moved it to the file disk/part.c to use |
| it for IDE ATAPI and SCSI devices. |
| Please refer to the section "Todo" chapter "block device support enhancement". |
| Added files: |
| - include/part.h |
| changed files: |
| - disk/dos_part.c |
| - disk/dos_part.h |
| - disk/mac_part.c |
| - disk/mac_part.h |
| - disk/part.c |
| - common/cmd_ide.c |
| - include/u-boot.h |
| |
| |
| MC146818 RTC support: |
| --------------------- |
| Added support for MC146818 RTC with defining CONFIG_RTC_MC146818. The ISA bus IO |
| base address must be defined with CONFIG_SYS_ISA_IO_BASE_ADDRESS. |
| Added files: |
| - rtc/mc146818.c |
| |
| Standard ISA bus Keyboard support: |
| ---------------------------------- |
| Added support for the standard PC kyeboard controller. For the PIP405 the superIO |
| controller must be set up previously. The keyboard uses the standard ISA IRQ, so |
| the ISA PIC must also be set up. |
| Added files: |
| - board/pip405/kbd.c |
| - board/pip405/kbd.h |
| - board/pip405/pip405_isa.c |
| - board/pip405/pip405_isa.h |
| |
| Chips and Technologie 69000 VGA controller support: |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| Added support for the CT69000 VGA controller. |
| Added files: |
| - board/pip405/video.c |
| - board/pip405/video.h |
| - board/pip405/vga_table.h |
| |
| |
| Changed Items: |
| ============== |
| |
| Identify: |
| --------- |
| Added the config variable CONFIG_IDENT_STRING which will be added to the |
| "U_BOOT_VERSION __TIME__ DATE___ " String, to allows to identify intermidiate |
| and custom versions. |
| Changed files: |
| - arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/start.s |
| |
| Firmware Image: |
| --------------- |
| Added IH_OS_U_BOOT and IH_TYPE_FIRMWARE to the image definitions to allows the |
| U-Boot update with prior CRC check. |
| Changed files: |
| - include/image.h |
| - tools/mkimage.c |
| - common/cmd_bootm.c |
| |
| Correct PCI Frequency for PPC405: |
| --------------------------------- |
| Added function (in arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/speed.c) to get the PCI frequency for PPC405 CPU. |
| The PCI Frequency will now be set correct in the board description in common/board.c. |
| (was set to the busfreq before). |
| Changed files: |
| - arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/speed.c |
| - common/board.c |
| |
| I2C Stuff: |
| ---------- |
| Added defined(CONFIG_PIP405) at several points in common/cmd_i2c.c. |
| Added 16bit read/write support for I2C (PPC405), and page write to |
| I2C EEPROM if defined CONFIG_SYS_EEPROM_PAGE_WRITE_ENABLE. |
| Changed files: |
| - arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/i2c.c |
| - common/cmd_i2c.c |
| |
| Environment / Console: |
| ---------------------- |
| Although in README.console described, the U-Boot has not assinged the values |
| found in the environment to the console. Corrected this behavior, but only if |
| CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_IS_IN_ENV is defined. |
| If CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_OVERWRITE_ROUTINE is defined, console_overwrite() decides if the |
| values stored in the environment or the standard serial in/output should be |
| assigned to the console. This is useful if the environment values are not correct. |
| If CONFIG_SYS_CONSOLE_ENV_OVERWRITE is defined the devices assigned to the console at |
| start-up time will be written to the environment. This means that if the |
| environment values are overwritten by the overwrite_console() routine, they will be |
| stored in the environment. |
| Changed files: |
| - common/console.c |
| |
| Correct bootdelay intepretation: |
| -------------------------------- |
| Changed bootdelay read from the environment from simple_strtoul (unsigned) to |
| simple_strtol (signed), to be able to get a bootdelay of -1. |
| Changed files: |
| - common/main.c |
| |
| Todo: |
| ===== |
| |
| Block device support enhancement: |
| --------------------------------- |
| Consider to unify the block device handling. Instead of using diskboot for IDE, |
| scsiboot for SCSI and fdcboot for floppy disks, it would make sense to use only |
| one command ("devboot" ???) with a parameter of the desired device ("hda1", "sda1", |
| "fd0" ???) to boot from. The other ide commands can be handled in the same way |
| ("dev hda read.." instead of "ide read.." or "dev sda read.." instead of |
| "scsi read..."). Todo this, a common way of assign a block device to its name |
| (first found ide device = hda, second found hdb etc., or hda is device 0 on bus 0, |
| hdb is device 1 on bus 0 etc.) as well as the names (hdx for ide, sdx for scsi, fx for |
| floppy ???) must be defined. |
| Maybe there are better ideas to do this. |
| |
| Console assingment: |
| ------------------- |
| Consider to initialize and assign the console stdin, stdout and stderr as soon as |
| possible to see the boot messages also on an other console than serial. |
| |
| |
| Todo for PIP405: |
| ================ |
| |
| LCD support for VGA: |
| -------------------- |
| Add LCD support for the CT69000 |
| |
| Default environment: |
| -------------------- |
| Consider to write a default environment to the OTP part of the EEPROM and use it |
| if the normal environment is not valid. Useful for serial# and ethaddr values. |
| |
| Watchdog: |
| --------- |
| Implement Watchdog. |
| |
| Files clean-up: |
| --------------- |
| Following files needs to be cleaned up: |
| - cmd_pip405.c |
| - flash.c |
| - pci_pip405.c |
| - pip405.c |
| - pip405_isa.c |
| Consider to split up the files in their functions. |
