* powerpc/boot: Fix the early OPAL console wrappersOliver O'Halloran2016-11-241-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When configured with CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_OPAL=y the kernel expects the OPAL entry and base addresses to be passed in r8 and r9 respectively. Currently the wrapper does not attempt to restore these values before entering the decompressed kernel which causes the kernel to branch into whatever happens to be in r9 when doing a write to the OPAL console in early boot. This patch adds a platform_ops hook that can be used to branch into the new kernel. The OPAL console driver patches this at runtime so that if the console is used it will be restored just prior to entering the kernel.

* powerpc/boot: Fix boot on systems with uncompressed kernel imageHeiner Kallweit2016-10-191-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit broke boot on systems with an uncompressed kernel image, namely systems using a cuImage. On such systems the compressed boot image (boot wrapper, uncompressed kernel image, ..) is decompressed by u-boot already, therefore the boot wrapper code sees an uncompressed kernel image. The old decompression code silently assumed an uncompressed kernel image if it found no valid gzip signature, whilst the new code bailed out in this case. Fix this by re-introducing such a fallback if no valid compressed image is found.

* powerpc/boot: Use the pre-boot decompression APIOliver O'Halloran2016-09-281-17/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the powerpc boot wrapper has its own wrapper around zlib to handle decompressing gzipped kernels. The kernel decompressor library functions now provide a generic interface that can be used in the pre-boot environment. This allows boot wrappers to easily support different compression algorithms. This patch converts the wrapper to use this new API, but does not add support for using new algorithms.

* powerpc/boot: Parse chosen/cmdline-timeout parameterSimon Kagstrom2014-11-101-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | On some platforms a 5 second timeout during boot might be quite long, so make it configurable. Run the loop at least once to let the user stop the boot by holding a key pressed. If the timeout is set to 0, don't wait for input, which can be used as a workaround if the boot hangs on random data coming in on the serial port.

* powerpc: Rename duplicate COMMAND_LINE_SIZE defineAnton Blanchard2014-04-281-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have two definitions of COMMAND_LINE_SIZE, one for the kernel and one for the boot wrapper. I assume this is so the boot wrapper can be self sufficient and not rely on kernel headers. Having two defines with the same name is confusing, I just updated the wrong one when trying to bump it. Make the boot wrapper define unique by calling it BOOT_COMMAND_LINE_SIZE. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

* powerpc/boot: Compare _start against ei.loadsize instead ei.memsizeSebastian Siewior2008-10-211-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the vmlinux binary in memory is larger than 4 MiB than it collides with the initial boot code which is linked at 4 MiB in case of cuBoot. If the the uncompressed image size (on disk size) is less than 4 MiB then it would fit. The difference between those two sizes is the bss section. In cuBoot we have the dtb embedded right after the data section so it is very likely that the reset of the bss section (in kernel's start up code) will overwrite the dtb blob. Therefore we reallocate the dtb. Something similar is allready done to the initrd.

* [POWERPC] Clean up zImage handling of the command lineDavid Gibson2007-04-131-33/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up how the zImage code manipulates the kernel command line. Notable improvements from the old handling: - Command line manipulation is consolidated into a new prep_cmdline() function, rather than being scattered across start() and some helper functions - Less stack space use: we use just a single global command line buffer, which can be initialized by an external tool as before, we no longer need another command line sized buffer on the stack. - Easier to support platforms whose firmware passes a commandline, but not a device tree. Platform code can now point new loader_info fields to the firmware's command line, rather than having to do early manipulation of the /chosen bootargs property which may then be rewritten again by the core.

* [POWERPC] Add device tree utility functions to zImageDavid Gibson2007-04-131-16/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a library of useful device tree manipulation functions to the zImage library, for use by platform code. These functions are based on the hooks already in dt_ops, so they're not dependent on a particular device tree implementation. This patch also slightly streamlines the code in main.c using these new functions. This is a consolidation of my work in this area with Scott Wood's patches to a very similar end.

* [POWERPC] zImage: Cleanup and improve zImage entry pointDavid Gibson2007-03-131-11/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch re-organises the way the zImage wrapper code is entered, to allow more flexibility on platforms with unusual entry conditions. After this patch, a platform .o file has two options: 1) It can define a _zimage_start, in which case the platform code gets control from the very beginning of execution. In this case the platform code is responsible for relocating the zImage if necessary, clearing the BSS, performing any platform specific initialization, and finally calling start() to load and enter the kernel. 2) It can define platform_init(). In this case the generic crt0.S handles initial entry, and calls platform_init() before calling start(). The signature of platform_init() is changed, however, to take up to 5 parameters (in r3..r7) as they come from the platform's initial loader, instead of a fixed set of parameters based on OF's usage. When using the generic crt0.S, the platform .o can optionally supply a custom stack to use, using the BSS_STACK() macro. If this is not supplied, the crt0.S will assume that the loader has supplied a usable stack. In either case, the platform code communicates information to the generic code (specifically, a PROM pointer for OF systems, and/or an initrd image address supplied by the bootloader) via a global structure "loader_info". In addition the wrapper script is rearranged to ensure that the platform .o is always linked first. This means that platforms where the zImage entry point is at a fixed address or offset, rather than being encoded in the binary header can be supported using option (1).

* [POWERPC] zImage: Cleanup and improve prep_kernel()David Gibson2007-03-131-66/+101
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch rewrites prep_kernel() in the zImage wrapper code to be clearer and more flexible. Notable changes: - Handling of the initrd image from prep_kernel() has moved into a new prep_initrd() function. - The address of the initrd image is now added as device tree properties, as the kernel expects. - We only copy a packaged initrd image to a new location if it is in danger of being clobbered when the kernel moves to its final location, instead of always. - By default we decompress the kernel directly to address 0, instead of requiring it to relocate itself. Platforms (such as OF) where doing this could clobber still-live firmware data structures can override the vmlinux_alloc hook to provide an alternate place to decompress the kernel. - We no longer pass lots of information between functions in global variables.

* [POWERPC] zImage: Add more flexible gunzip convenience functionsDavid Gibson2007-03-131-93/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At present, arch/powerpc/boot/main.c includes a gunzip() function which is a convenient wrapper around zlib. However, it doesn't conveniently allow decompressing part of an image to one location, then the remainder to a different address. This patch adds a new set of more flexible convenience wrappers around zlib, moving them to their own file, gunzip_util.c, in the process. These wrappers allow decompressing sections of the compressed image to different locations. In addition, they transparently handle uncompressed data, avoiding special case code to handle uncompressed vmlinux images. The patch also converts main.c to use the new wrappers, using the new flexibility to avoid decompressing the vmlinux's ELF header twice as we did previously. That in turn means we avoid extending our allocations for the vmlinux to allow space for the extra copy of the ELF header.

* [POWERPC] Cleanup zImage handling of kernel entry with flat device treeDavid Gibson2006-12-041-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes 2 changes to clean up the flat device tree handling logic in the zImage wrapper. First, there were two callbacks from the dt_ops structure used for producing a final flat tree to pass to the kerne: dt_ops.ft_pack() which packed the flat tree (possibly a no-op) and dt_ops.ft_addr() which retreived the address of the final blob. Since they were only ever called together, this patch combines the two into a single new callback, dt_ops.finalize(). This new callback does whatever platform-dependent things are necessary to produce a final flat device tree blob, and returns the blob's addres. Second, the current logic calls the kernel with a flat device tree if one is build into the zImage wrapper, otherwise it boots the kernel with a PROM pointer, expecting the kernel to copy the OF device tree itself. This approach precludes the possibility of the platform wrapper code building a flat device tree from whatever platform-specific information firmware provides. Thus, this patch takes the more sensible approach of invoking the kernel with a flat tree if the dt_ops.finalize callback provides one (by whatever means). So, the dt_ops.finalize callback can be NULL, or can be a function which returns NULL. In either case, the zImage wrapper logic assumes that this is a platform with OF and invokes the kernel accordingly.

* [POWERPC] Small clarification of initrd handlingDavid Gibson2006-12-041-7/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes the handling of the initrd (or initramfs) in the zImage wrapper a little easier to follow. Instead of passing the initrd addresses out from prep_kernel() via the cryptic a1 and a2 parameters, use the global struct add_range, 'initrd'. prep_kernel() already passes information through the 'vmlinux' addr_range struct, so this seems like a reasonable extension. Some comments also clarify the logic with prep_kernel(): we use an initrd included in the zImage if present, otherwise we use an initrd passed in by the bootloader in the a1 and a2 parameters (yaboot, at least, uses this mechanism to pass an initrd).
