The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands. Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".
This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */ while (*++*argv) {
switch (**argv) {
case 'd':
debug++;
break;
...
default:
usage ();
}
}
}
...
}
The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell. With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
error: increment of read-only location '*argv'
N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
char *arg = *argv;
while (*++arg) {
switch (*arg) {

Commit 460c2ce3 "MPC5200: workaround data corruption for unaligned
local bus accesses" fixed the problem for MPC5200 only, but MPC512x is
affected as well, so apply the same fix here, too.

The MPC5200 has a nasty problem that will cause silent data corruption
when performing unaligned 16 or 32 byte accesses when reading from the
local bus - typically this affects reading from flash. The problem can
be easily shown:

This commit implements a workaround at least for the most blatant
problem: using memcpy() from NOR flash. We rename the assembler
routine into __memcpy() and provide a wrapper, which will use a
byte-wise copy loop for unaligned source or target addresses when
reading from NOR flash, and branch to the optimized __memcpy()
in all other cases, thus minimizing the performance impact.
Tested on lite5200b and TQM5200S.

This patch consolidates bootcount_{store|load} for PowerPC by
implementing a common version in arch/powerpc/lib/bootcount.c. This
code is now used by all PowerPC variants that currently have these
functions implemented.
The functions now use the proper IO-accessor functions to read/write the
values.
This code also supports two different bootcount versions:
a) Use 2 separate words (2 * 32bit) to store the bootcounter
b) Use only 1 word (2 * 16bit) to store the bootcounter
Version b) was already used by MPC5xxx.

This avoids a possible overwrite of the (end of) ramdisk by u-boot.
The unused memory region for ppc boot currently starts 1k below the
do_bootm->bootm_start->arch_lmb_reserve stack ptr. This isn't enough since
do_bootm->do_bootm_linux->boot_relocate_fdt calls printf which may
very well use more than 1k stack space.

8360MDS ~2.8 ~2.6
8313RDB ~2.5 ~2.3 #nand boot
837xRDB ~3.1 ~2.3
also tested on an 8323ERDB.
v2: also remove the delayed icache enablement assumption in arch ppc's
board.c, and add a CONFIG_MPC83xx define in the ITX config file for
consistency (even though it was already being defined in 83xx'
config.mk).

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.
