[U-Boot-Users] GCC3.4.0 Coldfire 52xx Build problems
by Teun Grinwis 05 Aug '05

05 Aug '05

Hello All, I am new to U-Boot. We develop appl. on coldfire M5275EVB with uclinux 2.6, and intent to use U-Boot as boot loader. - Use the gcc3.4.0 toolchain, binutils binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1 from http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/m68k-elf-tools/gcc-3/ - I download u-boot from CVS, so latest version. - Tried to compile for M5272C3_config did make M5272C3_config make - got following error: ---------------------- make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/post/cpu' m68k-elf-gcc -Wa,-gstabs -D__ASSEMBLY__ -g -Os -ffixed-d7 -msep-data -D__ KERNEL__ -DTEXT_BASE=0xffe00000 -I/cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot /include -fno-builtin -ffreestanding -nostdinc -isystem /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/include -pipe -DCONFIG_M68K -D__M68K__ -m 5307 -c -o cpu/mcf52x2/start.o /cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/cpu/mcf52x2/start.S /cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/cpu/mcf52x2/start.S: Assembler messages: /cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/cpu/mcf52x2/start.S:345: Fatal error: Tried to convert PC relative conditional branch to absolute jump make: *** [cpu/mcf52x2/start.o] Error 1 ----------------------- - found the same error in the mail list, see http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=10000351 but no real solution mentioned. - found that the compiler option -msep-data is the reason for this error. - removed -msep-data from cpu/mcf52x2/config.mk - now compiling proceeds, but next error occurs: make -C `dirname board/m5272c3/libm5272c3.a` make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/board/m5272c3' m68k-elf-gcc -g -Os -ffixed-d7 -D__KERNEL__ -DTEXT_BASE=0xffe00000 -I/cyg drive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/include -fno-builtin -ffreestanding - nostdinc -isystem /usr/local/m68k-uclinux-tools/lib/gcc/m68k-uclinux/3.4.0/include -pipe -DCO NFIG_M68K -D__M68K__ -m5307 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -c -o m5272c3.o m5272c3.c m68k-elf-gcc -g -Os -ffixed-d7 -D__KERNEL__ -DTEXT_BASE=0xffe00000 -I/cyg drive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/include -fno-builtin -ffreestanding - nostdinc -isystem /usr/local/m68k-uclinux-tools/lib/gcc/m68k-uclinux/3.4.0/include -pipe -DCO NFIG_M68K -D__M68K__ -m5307 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -c -o flash.o flash.c flash.c: In function `flash_print_info': flash.c:68: error: label at end of compound statement make[1]: *** [flash.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/board/m5272c3' make: *** [board/m5272c3/libm5272c3.a] Error 2 this flash.c file is version 1.1 from 2003/12/08. - ok, made patch in flash.c compiling proceeds, but next error: UNDEF_SYM=`m68k-elf-objdump -x lib_generic/libgeneric.a board/m5272c3/libm5272c3.a cpu/mcf52x2/libmcf52x2.a lib_m68k/libm68k.a fs/cramfs/libcramfs.a fs/fat/libfat.a fs/fdos/libfdos.a fs/jffs2/libjffs2.a fs/reiserfs/libreiserfs.a fs/ext2/libext2fs.a net/libnet.a disk/libdisk.a rtc/librtc.a dtt/libdtt.a drivers/libdrivers.a drivers/sk98lin/libsk98lin.a post/libpost.a post/cpu/libcpu.a common/libcommon.a |sed -n -e 's/.*$__u_boot_cmd_.*$/-u\1/p'|sort|uniq`;\ m68k-elf-ld -Bstatic -T /cygdrive/c/project/U-Boot_20050803/u-boot/board/m5272c3/u-boot.lds -Ttext 0xffe00000 -n $UNDEF_SYM cpu/mcf52x2/start.o \ --start-group lib_generic/libgeneric.a board/m5272c3/libm5272c3.a cpu/mcf52x2/libmcf52x2.a lib_m68k/libm68k.a fs/cramfs/libcramfs.a fs/fat/libfat.a fs/fdos/libfdos.a fs/jffs2/libjffs2.a fs/reiserfs/libreiserfs.a fs/ext2/libext2fs.a net/libnet.a disk/libdisk.a rtc/librtc.a dtt/libdtt.a drivers/libdrivers.a drivers/sk98lin/libsk98lin.a post/libpost.a post/cpu/libcpu.a common/libcommon.a --end-group -L /usr/local/m68k-uclinux-tools/lib/gcc/m68k-uclinux/3.4.0/m5307 -lgcc \ -Map u-boot.map -o u-boot /cygdrive/x/uCLinux/install/bin/m68k-elf-ld.real: internal error /cygdrive/x/uCLinux/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1/ld/ldlang.c 1977 make: *** [u-boot] Error 1 code from binutils: int lang_symbol_definition_iteration (const char *name) { struct lang_definedness_hash_entry *defentry = (struct lang_definedness_hash_entry *) bfd_hash_lookup (&lang_definedness_table, name, FALSE, FALSE); /* We've already created this one on the presence of DEFINED in the script, so it can't be NULL unless something is borked elsewhere in the code. */ if (defentry == NULL) line 1977: FAIL (); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ return defentry->iteration; } ====================================================== so my overall questions, Is then main reason for this problems that I use GCC3.4.0 toolchain ?? Are other people using U-Boot for coldfire M52xx ?? and did run into same problems ?? I like to hear from their solutions/advices. ======================================================= Thanks in advance.

[U-Boot-Users] Source code documentation
by Jens Scharsig 05 Aug '05

05 Aug '05

Hello, I know DULG is the documentation platform of U-Boot. But I prefer to dokument my source with automatic doc-tools like doxygen; robodoc and so on. Are there plans to do this for U-Boot to ? Minimum I want do this for my own ports. Best regards Jens Scharsig

by KokHow Teh 04 Aug '05

04 Aug '05

Hi; With reference to the mail archive http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=9819913, I would like to know where can I donwload usbserial.c for my Redhat 9.0 (2.4.20-8smp) for my linux host in order to run usb console properly. There is this reference in the mail PET/src/os/linux/drivers/isb/serial/usbserial.c but I don't know where does this PET refer to. Any pointer is appreciated. Thanks. Regards, TEH

[U-Boot-Users] SCSI support for MIB405 board
by Wolfgang Denk 04 Aug '05

04 Aug '05

Dear Denis, can you tell me something about the SCSI support in the current versions of U-Boot? It seems the MIB405 board (maintained by you) has SCSI support enabled, but the whole code in common/cmd_scsi.c seemd to be unused - for example, there is no caller of do_scsi() or do_scsiboot() anywhere in the whole source tree? Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- Software Engineering: Embedded and Realtime Systems, Embedded Linux Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-10 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: wd(a)denx.de In general, they do what you want, unless you want consistency. - Larry Wall in the perl man page

by Jon Loeliger 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

Wolfgang, Here is a URL referencing a refresh of all of the outstanding 85xx and 83xx U-Boot patches. http://www.jdl.com/pub/software/u-boot-jdl.patch These patches are summarized like this: - All outstanding 85{40,60}ADS patches - All outstanging 85{55,41}CDS patches - New 8548CDS board support - TSEC driver moved from cpu/85xx to drivers/ - New 8349ADS board support - New 8540EVAL board support It does not contain the I2C patch Adam sent for 8548. It does not contain the Murray Jensen CPM2 I/O pin functions patch. These patches are 17K lines at 500K. If people would also like them posted here, let me know. Thanks, jdl

[U-Boot-Users] u-boot 1.1.1 and USB mass storage devices
by Shannon Holland 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

Hello, We are using u-boot on a Samsung S3C2410 based board and have USB mostly working using the arm920t USB driver. I say mostly working as some mass storage devices work fine, but most do not. Typically the behavior we see when they don't work is a "usb reset" reports the correct number of devices, a "usb tree" will return the correct device tree but "usb scan" will typically return a lot of CLI:TIMEOUT errors and seemingly never return. Sometimes it is able to find the storage device, but reading from it (it has a FAT16 filesystem) will return similar errors. I'm curious if these are known problems or likely to be something in the way we have (or have not) set up usb? Might anyone have some recommendations as to where to start looking? Thanks for any help! Shannon

[U-Boot-Users] mkconfig script & cygwin
by Scott McNutt 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

The mkconfig script does not execute properly in my cygwin environment, but is fine under linux. Changing line 35 solves the problem: from: if [ -z "$6" -o "$6" == "NULL" ] ; then to: if [ -z "$6" -o "$6" = "NULL" ] ; then The extra "=" is the culprit -- although I don't quite understand what's happening. Does this require a patch? Or is my cygwin environment screwed up? BTW: the bash version is the same in both environments. Regards, --Scott

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] - fix minor nit in 8260 FCC ethernet loopback test code
by Murray.Jensen＠csiro.au 03 Aug '05

03 Aug '05

In the 8260 FCC ethernet loopback test code, frames are deliberately sent as broadcast packets, and then any incoming frame is treated as having an error if it is a broadcast packet. This patch ignores the BC status bit on received frames. Cheers! Murray...
