Wolfgang Denk 47e26b1bf9 cmd_usage(): simplify return code handling
Lots of code use this construct:

	cmd_usage(cmdtp);
	return 1;

Change cmd_usage() let it return 1 - then we can replace all these
ocurrances by

	return cmd_usage(cmdtp);

This fixes a few places with incorrect return code handling, too.

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) {
			...

Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD 52cb4d4fb3 stdio/device: rework function naming convention
So far the console API uses the following naming convention:

	======Extract======
	typedef struct device_t;

	int	device_register (device_t * dev);
	int	devices_init (void);
	int	device_deregister(char *devname);
	struct list_head* device_get_list(void);
	device_t* device_get_by_name(char* name);
	device_t* device_clone(device_t *dev);
	=======

which is too generic and confusing.

Instead of using device_XX and device_t we change this
into stdio_XX and stdio_dev

This will also allow to add later a generic device mechanism in order
to have support for multiple devices and driver instances.

Wolfgang Denk a89c33db96 General help message cleanup
Many of the help messages were not really helpful; for example, many
commands that take no arguments would not print a correct synopsis
line, but "No additional help available." which is not exactly wrong,
but not helpful either.

Commit ``Make "usage" messages more helpful.'' changed this
partially. But it also became clear that lots of "Usage" and "Help"
messages (fields "usage" and "help" in struct cmd_tbl_s respective)
were actually redundant.

This patch cleans this up - for example:

Before:
	=> help dtt
	dtt - Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt         - Read temperature from digital thermometer and thermostat.

After:
	=> help dtt
	dtt - Read temperature from Digital Thermometer and Thermostat

	Usage:
	dtt

Yuri Tikhonov 0e15ddd11f POST: replace the LOGBUFF_INITIALIZED flag in gd->post_log_word (1 << 31) with the GD_FLG_LOGINIT flag in gd->flags.
This way we become able to utilize the full post_log_word for POST
activities (overwise, POST ECC, which has 0x8000 ID, could be
erroneously treated as started in post_output_backlog() even if there
was actually no POST ECC run (because of OCM POST failure, for
example).

Yuri Tikhonov 3d61018643 The patch introduces the alternative configuration of the log buffer for the lwmon5 board: the storage for the log-buffer itself is OCM(on-chip memory), the log-buffer header is moved to six GPT registers (PPC440EPX_GPT0_COMP1, ..., PPC440EPX_GPT0_COMP5).
To enable this, alternative, configuration the U-Boot board configuration
file for lwmon5 includes the definitions of alternative addresses for header
(CONFIG_ALT_LH_ADDR) and buffer (CONFIG_ALT_LB_ADDR).

 The Linux shall be configured with the CONFIG_ALT_LB_LOCATION option set,
and has the BOARD_ALT_LH_ADDR and BOARD_ALT_LB_ADDR constants defined in the
lwmon5 board-specific header (arch/ppc/platforms/4xx/lwmon5.h).
