Subject: New round of my IXP42x patches
Date: Thu, 06 Jan 2011 15:48:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m38vyym6k9.fsf@intrepid.localdomain> (raw)
I've fixed the 3 remaining patches:
1. Fix error handling with malloc, memalign etc. Introduce xmemalign().
The idea is to panic() when there is no memory available for normal
operation. Exception: code which can consume arbitrary amount of RAM
(example: files allocated in ramfs) must report error instead of
panic().
This patch also fixes code which didn't check for NULL from malloc()
etc.
Usage: malloc(), xmemalign() return NULL when out of RAM.
xmalloc(), xmemalign() always return non-NULL or panic().
(I've removed the clkdev changes as requested)
2. ARM: support big/little endian switching in "bootz".
I've renamed CONFIG_BOOTZ_ENDIANNESS_SWITCH to
CONFIG_BOOT_ENDIANNESS_SWITCH anticipating support for
endianness switching for bootm and bootu, either automatic or with
additional parameter.
3. ARM: Add support for IXP4xx CPU and for Goramo Multilink router
platform.
Fixed the memalign() -> xmemalign() usage in IXP4xx Ethernet driver.
I'm currently using Barebox with these three patches applied.
