Mike Frysinger 882b7d726f do_reset: unify duplicate prototypes
The duplication of the do_reset prototype has gotten out of hand,
and they're not all in sync.  Unify them all in command.h.

Wolfgang Denk 54841ab50c Make sure that argv[] argument pointers are not modified.
The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands.  Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".

This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:

int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */	while (*++*argv) {
			switch (**argv) {
			case 'd':
				debug++;
				break;
			...
			default:
				usage ();
			}
		}
	}
	...
}

The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell.  With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
	error: increment of read-only location '*argv'

N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:

	while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
		char *arg = *argv;
		while (*++arg) {
			switch (*arg) {
			...

Rafal Jaworowski 500856eb17 API for external applications.
This is an API for external (standalone) applications running on top of
U-Boot, and is meant to be more extensible and robust than the existing
jumptable mechanism. It is similar to UNIX syscall approach. See api/README
for more details.

Included is the demo application using this new framework (api_examples).

Please note this is still an experimental feature, and is turned off by
default.
