| * | | test: Allow running tests multiple timesSimon Glass2022-09-021-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some tests can have race conditions which are hard to detect on a single one. Add a way to run tests more than once, to help with this. Each individual test is run the requested number of times before moving to the next test. If any runs failed, a message is shown. This is most useful when running a single test, since running all tests multiple times can take a while. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
| * | | Makefile: Allow LTO to be disabled for a buildSimon Glass2022-09-021-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | LTO (Link-Time Optimisation) is an very useful feature which can significantly reduce the size of U-Boot binaries. So far it has been made available for selected ARM boards and sandbox. However, incremental builds are much slower when LTO is used. For example, an incremental build of sandbox takes 2.1 seconds on my machine, but 6.7 seconds with LTO enabled. Add a NO_LTO parameter to the build, similar to NO_SDL, so it can be disabled during development if needed, for faster builds. Add some documentation about LTO while we are here.

| * | | cmd: Add pause commandSamuel Dionne-Riel2022-09-022-0/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This command is being introduced with the goal of allowing user-friendly "generic use case" U-Boot builds to pause until user input under some situations. The main use case would be when a boot failure happens, to pause until the user has had time to acknowledge the current state. Tested using: make && ./u-boot -v -T -c 'ut lib lib_test_hush_pause' Signed-off-by: Samuel Dionne-Riel <samuel@dionne-riel.com> Cc: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
| * | | pmic: Convert pm8916 driver to a generic Qcom PMIC driverSumit Garg2022-08-262-18/+94
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since both pm8916.c and pm8916_gpio.c are already supporting multiple Qcom SoCs, it makes sense to rename these drivers to pmic_qcom.c and qcom_pmic_gpio.c respectively. Also, these driver can be extended to support additional functionality if required for other Qcom SoCs. Along with this import latest DT binding: qcom,spmi-pmic.txt from Linux kernel and thereby remove pm8916.txt. Signed-off-by: Sumit Garg <sumit.garg@linaro.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At present ofnode only works with a single device tree, for the most part. This is the control FDT used by U-Boot. When booting an OS we may obtain a different device tree and want to modify it. Add some initial support for this into the ofnode API. Note that we don't permit aliases in this other device tree, since the of_access implementation maintains a list of aliases collected at start-up. Also, we don't need aliases to do fixups in the other FDT. So make sure that flat tree and live tree processing are consistent in this area. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
