2012-01-05env: factor out the env_get_char_spec() functionIgor Grinberg
env_get_char_spec() function is duplicated across multiple environment files. Remove the duplication by providing a default implementation. Add "weak" declaration, so the default implementation can be overridden. Signed-off-by: Igor Grinberg <grinberg@compulab.co.il>

2011-11-08env: allow to export only selected variablesWolfgang Denk
New syntax: env export [-t | -b | -c] [-s size] addr [var ...] With this change it is possible to provide a list of variables names that shall be exported. Whenno arguments are given, the whole environment gets exported. NOTE: The new handling of the "size" argument means a change to the user API. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>
2011-04-28fix redundant environment for serial flashthomas.langer@lantiq.com
This patch fixes problems in the handling of redundant environment in env_sf.c The major problem are double calls of free() on the allocated buffers, which damages the internal data of malloc and crashes on next call. In addition, the selection of the active environment had errors and compiler warnings, which are corrected by this patch. Signed-off-by: Thomas Langer <thomas.langer@lantiq.com>
2010-12-17hashtable: drop all non-reentrant versionsMike Frysinger
The non-reentrant versions of the hashtable functions operate on a single shared hashtable. So if two different people try using these funcs for two different purposes, they'll cause problems for the other. Avoid this by converting all existing hashtable consumers over to the reentrant versions and then punting the non-reentrant ones. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

2010-10-27env_sf: updated to the new environment codeStefano Babic
Functions to store/retrieve the environment from a SPI flash was not updated to the new environment code. The non-redundant case was not working correctly, reporting ""Environment SPI flash not initialized" and the code was not compiled clean in the redundant case. The patch fixes these issue and makes the code more coherent with other environment storage (nand, flash). Signed-off-by: Stefano Babic <sbabic@denx.de>
2010-09-19New implementation for internal handling of environment variables.Wolfgang Denk
Motivation: * Old environment code used a pessimizing implementation: - variable lookup used linear search => slow - changed/added variables were added at the end, i. e. most frequently used variables had the slowest access times => slow - each setenv() would calculate the CRC32 checksum over the whole environment block => slow * "redundant" envrionment was locked down to two copies * No easy way to implement features like "reset to factory defaults", or to select one out of several pre-defined (previously saved) sets of environment settings ("profiles") * No easy way to import or export environment settings ====================================================================== API Changes: - Variable names starting with '#' are no longer allowed I didn't find any such variable names being used; it is highly recommended to follow standard conventions and start variable names with an alphanumeric character - "printenv" will now print a backslash at the end of all but the last lines of a multi-line variable value. Multi-line variables have never been formally defined, allthough there is no reason not to use them. Now we define rules how to deal with them, allowing for import and export. - Function forceenv() and the related code in saveenv() was removed. At the moment this is causing build problems for the only user of this code (schmoogie - which has no entry in MAINTAINERS); may be fixed later by implementing the "env set -f" feature. Inconsistencies: - "printenv" will '\\'-escape the '\n' in multi-line variables, while "printenv var" will not do that. ====================================================================== Advantages: - "printenv" output much better readable (sorted) - faster! - extendable (additional variable properties can be added) - new, powerful features like "factory reset" or easy switching between several different environment settings ("profiles") Disadvantages: - Image size grows by typically 5...7 KiB (might shrink a bit again on systems with redundant environment with a following patch series) ====================================================================== Implemented: - env command with subcommands: - env print [arg ...] same as "printenv": print environment - env set [-f] name [arg ...] same as "setenv": set (and delete) environment variables ["-f" - force setting even for read-only variables - not implemented yet.] - end delete [-f] name not implemented yet ["-f" - force delete even for read-only variables] - env save same as "saveenv": save environment - env export [-t | -b | -c] addr [size] export internal representation (hash table) in formats usable for persistent storage or processing: -t: export as text format; if size is given, data will be padded with '\0' bytes; if not, one terminating '\0' will be added (which is included in the "filesize" setting so you can for exmple copy this to flash and keep the termination). -b: export as binary format (name=value pairs separated by '\0', list end marked by double "\0\0") -c: export as checksum protected environment format as used for example by "saveenv" command addr: memory address where environment gets stored size: size of output buffer With "-c" and size is NOT given, then the export command will format the data as currently used for the persistent storage, i. e. it will use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE as output block size and prepend a valid CRC32 checksum and, in case of resundant environment, a "current" redundancy flag. If size is given, this value will be used instead of CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE; again, CRC32 checksum and redundancy flag will be inserted. With "-b" and "-t", always only the real data (including a terminating '\0' byte) will be written; here the optional size argument will be used to make sure not to overflow the user provided buffer; the command will abort if the size is not sufficient. Any remainign space will be '\0' padded. On successful return, the variable "filesize" will be set. Note that filesize includes the trailing/terminating '\0' byte(s). Usage szenario: create a text snapshot/backup of the current settings: => env export -t 100000 => era ${backup_addr} +${filesize} => cp.b 100000 ${backup_addr} ${filesize} Re-import this snapshot, deleting all other settings: => env import -d -t ${backup_addr} - env import [-d] [-t | -b | -c] addr [size] import external format (text or binary) into hash table, optionally deleting existing values: -d: delete existing environment before importing; otherwise overwrite / append to existion definitions -t: assume text format; either "size" must be given or the text data must be '\0' terminated -b: assume binary format ('\0' separated, "\0\0" terminated) -c: assume checksum protected environment format addr: memory address to read from size: length of input data; if missing, proper '\0' termination is mandatory - env default -f reset default environment: drop all environment settings and load default environment - env ask name [message] [size] same as "askenv": ask for environment variable - env edit name same as "editenv": edit environment variable - env run same as "run": run commands in an environment variable ====================================================================== TODO: - drop default env as implemented now; provide a text file based initialization instead (eventually using several text files to incrementally build it from common blocks) and a tool to convert it into a binary blob / object file. - It would be nice if we could add wildcard support for environment variables; this is needed for variable name auto-completion, but it would also be nice to be able to say "printenv ip*" or "printenv *addr*" - Some boards don't link any more due to the grown code size: DU405, canyonlands, sequoia, socrates. => cc: Matthias Fuchs <matthias.fuchs@esd-electronics.com>, Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>, Heiko Schocher <hs@denx.de> - Dropping forceenv() causes build problems on schmoogie => cc: Sergey Kubushyn <ksi@koi8.net> - Build tested on PPC and ARM only; runtime tested with NOR and NAND flash only => needs testing!!

2010-06-30add redundant environment for env_sf.cWolfgang Wegner
This patch adds redundant environment for environment in SPI flash. I took env_flash.c as an example and slightly modified it. Apart from adapting things to SF, I also slightly changed the decision logic to use area 2 as a default in case the flags are wrong because not having a default path worried me. I did not add a section for CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_SPI_FLASH in environment.h because I did not understand if this is desired and/or needed. So to use the feature, one has to set CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET_REDUND _and_ CONFIG_SYS_REDUNDAND_ENVIRONMENT. I checked it by powering off my board several times during flash erase or write, because I do not know if there are other stress test scenarios.

2009-08-09env: kill off default_environment_sizeMike Frysinger
The only environment type that uses this variable is spi flash, and that is only because it is reimplementing the common set_default_env() function. So fix the spi flash code and kill off the default_environment_size in the process. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
2008-12-16env_sf: support embedded environmentsMike Frysinger
If both CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE and CONFIG_ENV_SIZE are defined, and the sect size is larger than the env size, then it means the env is embedded in a block. So we have to save/restore the part of the sector which is not the environment. Previously, saving the environment in SPI flash in this setup would probably brick the board as the rest of the sector tends to contain actual U-Boot data/code.

2008-08-14Change CFG_ENV_SIZE to CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE for SPI sector eraseTsiChung Liew
The CFG_ENV_SIZE is not suitable used for SPI flash erase sector size if CFG_ENV_SIZE is less than CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE. Add condition check if CFG_ENV_SIZE is larger than CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, calculate the right number of sectors for erasing. Signed-off-by: TsiChung Liew <Tsi-Chung.Liew@freescale.com>
2008-06-03Add support for environment in SPI flashHaavard Skinnemoen
This is pretty incomplete...it doesn't handle reading the environment before relocation, it doesn't support redundant environment, and it doesn't support embedded environment. But apart from that, it does seem to work. Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <haavard.skinnemoen@atmel.com>
