2011-10-26fdt: ARM: Add fdtcontroladdr to set device tree address in environmentSimon Glass
This adds support for a new environment variable called 'fdtcontroladdr'. If defined, the hex address is used as the address of the control fdt for U-Boot. Note: I have not changed CONFIG_PRAM section as I already have an outstanding patch on that. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2011-10-26fdt: Add support for embedded device tree (CONFIG_OF_EMBED)Simon Glass
This new option allows U-Boot to embed a binary device tree into its image to allow run-time control of peripherals. This device tree is for U-Boot's own use and is not necessarily the same one as is passed to the kernel. The device tree compiler output should be placed in the $(obj) rooted tree. Since $(OBJCOPY) insists on adding the path to the generated symbol names, to ensure consistency it should be invoked from the directory where the .dtb file is located and given the input file name without the path. This commit contains my entry for the ugliest Makefile / shell interaction competition. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
