This commit 904672e (lcd: refactor lcd console stuff into its
own file), which cause lcd console address is not initialized.
Based on your fix, I'm certain that the bug was introduced in a
previous patch, perhaps 140beb9 (lcd: expand console api).
Also, can you provide a more detailed explanation of when this
happens and how?
It will cause the system hang.
Before this patch, lcd_logo -> lcd_show_board_info (CONFIG_LCD_INFO) ->
.. -> lcd_drawchars. It has the following lines:
--->8---
dest = (uchar *)(lcd_base + y * lcd_line_length + x * NBITS(LCD_BPP)/8);
---8<---
while with the patch,
--->8---
dest = (uchar *)(lcd_console_address +
y * lcd_line_length + x * NBITS(LCD_BPP) / 8);
---8<---
As the lcd_console_address is initialized after lcd_logo return, so the
lcd_console_address is not initialized, it is 0. When try to write to
address 0, the system hang.
This patch split lcd console address initialize and lcd logo
display into two functions.

I would like to see some mention of why it's ok to redefine the console
address in such a way. At first glance it looks like there is a slight
change of
behavior (the value no longer depends on whether splash image was loaded
or not), but it seems to be ok if you go over the various cases. The only
instance where I see the difference could manifest itself is if lcd
console
would start writing to the frame buffer while the splash screen is still
on,
but that doesn't look good regardless of where the console starts, so
I'm ok
with that.
Thanks for reminder this, I will check whether this will break the
splash screen.
Can we use the following patch to fix this issue?

It first initializes the lcd console with LCD base, if the splash screen is
used, new address is updated.
I think this is the best approach. I am very close to posting the next step in
my refactor of lcd.c, and I can
incorporate it in the series. I will greatly appreciate your help in testing
this series, since it involves Atmel
related changes.
I need this kind of fix to be applied as soon as possible, or else, most Atmel
related board are broken on u-boot master branch.
Best Regards,
Bo Shen
