sunxi: pinctrl: Implement pin muxing functions
Implement the operations to get pin and function names, and to set the
mux for a pin. The pin count and pin names are calculated as if each
bank has the maximum number of pins. Function names are simply the index
into a list of { function name, mux value } pairs.
We assume all pins associated with a function use the same mux value for
that function. This is generally true within a group of pins on a single
port, but generally false when some peripheral can be muxed to multiple
ports. For example, A64 UART3 uses mux 3 on port D, and mux 2 on port H.
But all of the port D pins use the same mux value, and so do all of the
port H pins. This applies even when the pins for some function are not
contiguous, and when the lower-numbered mux values are unused. A good
example of both of these cases is SPI0 on most SoCs.
This strategy saves a lot of space (which is especially important for
SPL), but where the mux value for a certain function differs across
ports, it forces us to choose a single port for that function at build
time. Since almost all boards use the default (i.e. reference design)
pin muxes[1], this is unlikely to be a problem.

board: starqltechn: get board usable - add bootcmd and docs
U-boot is intended to replace linux kernel in android boot image(ABL), and
it's FIT payload to replace initramfs file. The boot process is similar to
boot image with linux:
- android bootloader (ABL) unpacks android boot image
- ABL sets `linux,initrd-start property` in chosen node in unpacked FDT
- ABL sets x0 register to FDT address, and passes control to u-boot
- u-boot reads x0 register, and stores it in `prevbl_fdt_addr` env variable
- u-boot reads `linux,initrd-start` property,
and stores it in `prevbl_initrd_start_addr`
In this way, u-boot bootcmd relies on `prevbl_initrd_start_addr` env
variable, and boils down to `bootm $prevbl_initrd_start_addr`.
If more control on boot process is desired, pack a boot script in
FIT image, and put it to default configuration
What done:
- strip unneeded config options
- add FIT image support
- add framebuffer node, u-boot logo and video console
- increase LMB_MAX_REGIONS, to store all linux dtb reserved memory regions
- add linux kernel image header
Uart driver causes hang, when u-boot is used in android boot image instead
of linux. Temporary disable console driver, until investigated and fixed.
When u-boot is used as a chain-loaded bootloader (replacing OS kernel),
previous bootloader leaves data in RAM, that can be reused.
For example, on recent arm linux system, when chainloading u-boot,
there are initramfs and fdt in RAM prepared for OS booting. Initramfs
may be modified to store u-boot's payload, thus providing the ability to
use chainloaded u-boot to boot OS without any storage support.
Two config options added:
- SAVE_PREV_BL_INITRAMFS_START_ADDR
saves initramfs start address to 'prevbl_initrd_start_addr' environment
variable
- SAVE_PREV_BL_FDT_ADDR

This brings in two related series. The first from Andre:
This series is the continuation of last year's effort to support the new
Armv8-R64 application profile. This led to a significant rework of the
existing fastmodel (FVP) support, to both upgrade it to newest U-Boot
standards (OF_CONTROL and distro_boot support), but also to generalise
the code, so that plugging in the v8-R64 support in the last patch gets
much easier. This is because apart from the twisted memory map between
the two profiles there is actually little difference, when it comes to
U-Boot relevant parts of the hardware.
I kept the legacy semihosting support (which picks up magic files from
the current directory), but if that fails, we go and try virtio-blk
(.iso installer images work), then virtio-net.
Please have a look, and give it a try, if possible. Both the v8-R and
v8-A FVP models are available for free on the Arm website[1].
Patch 01/11 fixes a regression introduced in December, it should be
applied now. The rest of the patches are for the next merge window.
And the second from Sean (where we exclude 27, 28 and 29 for now):
This cleans up the semihosting code and adds the following new features:
- hostfs support (like sandbox)
- support for being used as a SPL boot device
- serial device support
- falling back to normal drivers if semihosting is disabled
The main device affected by these changes is vexpress64, so I'd
appreciate
if Andre (or anyone else) could try booting.
These changes are motivated by bringup for ls1046a. When forcing JTAG
boot, this device disables most communication peripherals, including
serial and ethernet devices. This appears to be fixed in later
generation devices, but we are stuck with it for now. Semihosting
provides an easy way to run a few console commands.
The patches in this series are organized as follows:
0-4: rST conversions and other documentation updates
5-9: Semihosting cleanups
10-14: Filesystem support (including SPL boot device)
15-16: Serial support
16: Documentation update
17: JTAG boot support for LS1046A

on their own. The last two groups could be broken out as separate
series, but I have kept them in this one to help with my sanity (and not
have to deal with too many outstanding series).
Patch 14 depends on [1] to apply cleanly. Patch 17 depends on [2] for
correctness. This series should be applied to u-boot/next (in
particular, the EROFS series must have been applied).

serial: dm: Add support for puts
Some serial drivers can be vastly more efficient when printing multiple
characters at once. Non-DM serial has had a puts option for these sorts
of drivers; implement it for DM serial as well.
Because we have to add carriage returns, we can't just pass the whole
string directly to the serial driver. Instead, we print up to the
newline, then print a carriage return, and then continue on. This is
less efficient, but it is better than printing each character
individually. It also avoids having to allocate memory just to add a few
characters.
Drivers may perform short writes (such as filling a FIFO) and return the
number of characters written in len. We loop over them in the same way
that _serial_putc loops over putc.
This results in around sizeof(void *) growth for all boards with
DM_SERIAL. The full implementation takes around 140 bytes.

arm64: Catch non-emulated semihosting calls
If a debugger is not attached to U-Boot, semihosting calls will raise a

case, we return an error, since it is not always possible to check for
semihosting beforehand (debug uart, user-initiated load command, etc.)
We handle all possible semihosting instructions, which is probably
overkill. However, we do need to keep track of what instruction set
we're using so that we don't suppress an actual error.
A future enhancement could try to determine semihosting capability by
inspecting the processor state. There's an example of this at [1] for
RISC-V. The equivalent for ARM would inspect the monitor modei
enable/select bits of the DSCR. However, as the article notes, an

arm: smh: Add option to detect semihosting
These functions are intended to support detecting semihosting and
falling back gracefully to alternative implementations. The test starts
by making semihosting call. SYS_ERRNO is chosen because it should not
mutate any state. If this semihosting call results in an exception
(rather than being caught by the debugger), then the exception handler
should call disable_semihosting() and resume execution after the call.
Ideally, this would just be part of semihosting by default, and not a
separate config. However, to reduce space ARM SPL doesn't include
exception vectors by default. This means we can't detect if a
semihosting call failed unless we enable them. To avoid forcing them to
be enabled, we use a separate config option. It might also be possible
to try and detect whether a debugger has enabled (by reading HDE from
DSCR), but I wasn't able to figure out a way to do this from all ELs.

serial: Add semihosting driver
This adds a serial driver which uses semihosting calls to read and write
to the host's console. For convenience, if CONFIG_DM_SERIAL is enabled,
we will instantiate a serial driver. This allows users to enable this
driver (which has no physical device) without modifying their device
trees or board files. We also implement a non-DM driver for SPL, or for
much faster output in U-Boot proper.
There are three ways to print to the console:
Method Baud
================== =====
smh_putc in a loop 170
smh_puts 1600
smh_write with :tt 20000
================== =====
These speeds were measured using a 175 character message with a J-Link
adapter. For reference, U-Boot typically prints around 2700 characters
during boot on this board. There are two major factors affecting the
speed of these functions. First, each breakpoint incurs a delay. Second,
each debugger memory transaction incurs a delay. smh_putc has a
breakpoint and memory transaction for every character. smh_puts has one
breakpoint, but still has to use a transaction for every character. This
is because we don't know the length up front, so OpenOCD has to check if
each character is nul. smh_write has only one breakpoint and one memory
transfer.
DM serial drivers can only implement a putc interface, so we are stuck
with the slowest API. Non-DM drivers can implement puts, which is vastly
more efficient. When the driver starts up, we try to open :tt. Since
this is an extension, this may fail. If it does, we fall back to
smh_puts. We don't check :semihosting-features, since there are
nonconforming implementations (OpenOCD) which don't implement it (but
*do* implement :tt).
Some semihosting implementations (QEMU) don't handle READC properly. To
work around this, we try to use open/read (much like for stdin) if
possible.
There is no non-blocking I/O available, so we don't implement pending.
This will cause __serial_tstc to always return true. If
CONFIG_SERIAL_RX_BUFFER is enabled, _serial_tstc will try and read
characters forever. To avoid this, we depend on this config being
disabled.

I think semihosting has some advantages of other forms of JTAG boot.
Common other ways to boot from JTAG include:
- Implementing DDR initialization through JTAG (typically with dozens of
lines of TCL) and then loading U-Boot. The DDR initialization
typically uses hard-coded register writes, and is not easily adapted
to different boards. BOOT_DEVICE_SMH allows booting with SPL,
leveraging U-Boot's existing DDR initialization code. This is the
method used by NXP's CodeWarrior IDE on Layerscape processors (see
AN12270).
- Loading a bootloader into SDRAM, waiting for it to initialize DDR, and
then loading U-Boot. This is tricky, because the debugger must stop the
boot after the bootloader has completed its work. Trying to load
U-Boot too early can cause failure to boot. This is the method used by
Xilinx with its Zynq(MP) processors.
- Loading SPL with BOOT_DEVICE_RAM and breaking before SPL loads the
image to load U-Boot at the appropriate place. This can be a bit
tricky, because the load address is dependent on the header size. An
elf with symbols must also be used in order to stop at the appropriate
point. BOOT_DEVICE_SMH can be viewed as an extension of this process,
where SPL automatically stops and tells the host where to place the
image.

a DT with the proper size, and be able to use the full amount of DRAM.

vexpress64: generalise page table generation
In preparation for the ARMv8-R64 FVP support, which has DRAM mapped at
0x0, generalise the page table generation, by using symbolic names for
the address ranges instead of fixed numbers.
We already define the base of the DRAM and MMIO regions, so just use
those symbols in the page table description. Rename V2M_BASE to the more
speaking V2M_DRAM_BASE on the way.
On the VExpress memory map, the address space right after 4GB is of no
particular interest to software, as the whole of DRAM is mapped at 32GB
instead. The first 2 GB alias to the lower 2GB of DRAM mapped below 4GB,
so we skip this part and map some more of the high DRAM, should anyone
need it.

vexpress64: defconfigs: allow default commands
Right now the defconfig the Arm VExpress64 boards disables quite some
standard commands, for apparently no good reasons (as image size is
hardly a concern here).
Remove the lines explicitly disabling those features, leaving it to
the U-Boot default settings to set them.

vexpress64: fvp: add distro_boot support
So far the FVP model just supports booting through semihosting, so by
loading files from the host the model is running on. This allows for
quick booting of new kernels (or replacing DTBs), but prevents more
featureful boots like using UEFI.
Enable the distro_boot feature, and provide a list of possible boot
sources that U-Boot should check:
- For backwards compatibility we start with semihosting, which gets its
commands migrated from CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND into the distro_boot
infrastructure. This is also slightly tweaked to fail graceful in case
the required files could not be found.
- Next we try to use a user provided script, that could be easily
placed into memory using the model command line.
- Since we gained virtio support with the enablement of OF_CONTROL,
let's check virtio block devices next. This is where UEFI boot can
be easily used, for instance by providing a distro installer .iso
file through virtio-blk.
- Networking is now provided by virtio as well, so enable the default
PXE and DHCP boot flows, mostly because we can.

vexpress64: move hardware setting from defconfig to Kconfig
The defconfigs for the Arm Juno board and the FVP model are quite large,
setting a lot of platform-fixed variables like SYS_TEXT_BASE.
As those values are not really a user choice, let's provide default
values for them in our Kconfig file, so a lot of cruft can be removed
from the defconfig files.
This also moves the driver selection out of there, since this is again
not something a user should really decide on. Instead we allow users to
enable or disable subsystems, and select the appropriate drivers based
on that in the Kconfig file.
The definition of the standard environment variables (kernel_addr_r and
friends) has been improved lately for the FVP model, but the Juno board
is still using some custom scheme.
Since we need to extend this to a third board soon, let's unify the
definition:
- Define the Juno addresses in the same generic way we do for the FVP
model, and move the actual variable setting out of the board #ifdef's.
- Add the missing addresses for a PXE file and a boot script.
- Cleanup some stale comments on the way.
As the FVP model doesn't have support for distro_boot quite yet, add
a dummy definition for now, to be replaced with the real thing later.

vexpress64: fvp: enable OF_CONTROL
The FVP base model is relying on a DT for Linux operation, so there is
no reason we would need to rely on hardcoded information for U-Boot.
Letting U-Boot use a DT will open up the usage of actual peripherals,
beyond the support for semihosting only.
Enable OF_CONTROL in the Kconfig, and use the latest dts files from
Linux. Depending on whether we use the boot-wrapper or TF-A, there is
already a DTB provided or not, respectively.
To cover the boot-wrapper, we add an arm64 Linux kernel header, which
allows the boot-wrapper to treat U-Boot like a Linux kernel. U-Boot will
find the pointer to the DTB in x0, and will use it.
Even though TF-A carries a DT, at the moment this is not made available
to non-secure world, so to not break users, we use the U-Boot provided
DTB copy in that case. For some reason TF-A puts some DT like structure
at the address x0 is pointing at, but that is very small and doesn't
carry any hardware information. Make the code to ignore those small DTBs.

vexpress64: Kconfig: move board definitions out of arch/arm
At the moment we define three "VExpress64" boards in arch/arm/Kconfig,
plus have a second Kconfig file in board/armltd/Kconfig.
One of those three boards is actually bogus (TARGET_VEXPRESS64_AEMV8A),
that stanza looks like being forgotten in a previous cleanup.
To remove the clutter from the generic Kconfig file, just define some
ARCH_VEXPRESS64 symbol there, enable some common options, and do the
board/model specific configuration in the board/armltd Kconfig file.
That allows to streamline and fine tune the configuration later, and
to also pull a lot of "non user choices" out of the defconfigs.
