[U-Boot] env-variable setting in u-boot-function

[Altunbas Sabri (DC-IA/EAH2)]

Hi,

i want tos et an env. variable in a u-boot-function like this

fs/fs.c:
--------
int do_load(cmd_tbl_t *cmdtp, int flag, int argc, char * const argv[],
		int fstype, int cmdline_base)
{
......
......
setenv("filesize", buf);
......
......
}  

I tried it like following

Arch/x86/lib/board.c:
---------------------
void board_init_f(ulong boot_flags)
{
......
......	
gd->flags = boot_flags;

1) /*setenv("starttype", boot_flags);*/
2) setenv((const char *) "starttype", (const char *) boot_flags);
......
......	
}

I will find out the starttype. But the version

1) can not be compiled

board.c: In function 'board_init_f':
board.c:223:2: error: passing argument 2 of 'setenv' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror]
In file included from board.c:34:0:
.../u-boot-2013.01/include/common.h:358:5: note: expected 'const char *' but argument is of type 'ulong'
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[1]: *** [board.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory .../u-boot-2013.01/arch/x86/lib'
make: *** [arch/x86/lib/libx86.o] Error 2

the version
2) doesn't work. This means. Starttype is not set

Thank you for hints
