-Environment / Console: ----------------------- - -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 -

- -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 -block_dev_desc will be used when accessing the functions in these files. The block -device descriptor (block_dev_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. |
