Now that driver model operations prior to relocation, the remaining
area where it does not work is SPL. This series enables this.
Since SPL is quite memory-constrained, code and data size need to be
kept as small as possible. This series includes a few changes to help
with this:
- Small and simple malloc() implementation
- Dropping device removal features
- Dropping stdio features
- Dropping driver model warnings
With these the code size impact of driver model is small, around 2-3KB.
Data usage is typically 200-300 bytes. In many cases this can squeeze
into the available SPL RAM space.
This requires a revert of the SPL global_data revert (commit 1ee30ae).
I believe that is planned for early in this merge window. We need that
revert undone to be able to support the simple malloc in SPL on ARM.
Note that the driver model docs will be added/moved to Kconfig in a
follow-on patch.
This series is available at u-boot-dm branch 'spl-working'.
Changes in v3:
- Add new patch to avoid using arch-specific memcpy() in SPL
- Add #ifdef around serial_stub_puts() to fix error when building SPL
- Rebase to master
Changes in v2:
- Correct the Makefile condition for simple_malloc
- Rebase on top of the SPI series
- Rebase to master
