Hi, Wolfgang, I am trying to port some code of xyssl to u-boot in order to do the digital signature verification. Unfortunately, xyssl uses some stdlib functions, which are related to file operations, strings, malloc and free (I worry these most). The existing SHA1 features work fine with xscale. The main issue of digital signature verification on u-boot is the large integer operations.

U-Boot is not a standard application that runs under control of a general purpose OS, but it's a boot loader that lives in a very restricted, simple environment. As such, we cannot use the standard C library (glibc). Instead, U-Boot is self-contained and includes everything it needs, and nothing more. <stdio.h> is a header file that is provided by glibc - it cannot be used with U-Boot as U-Boot doesn't provide the context needed for such a complex library like glibc. I'm not sure why you would want to include <stdio.h> - it is not needed in U-Boot context. Please look around in the existing code how things are set up in U-Boot. This is NOT like developing a user space application under Linux. It is even more restricted than programming Linux kernel code (and in Linux kernel code you cannot include <stdio.h> either).
