This doesn't seem quite right ...
1) this should be in CPU directory 2) should be enabled
only if CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT is not set 3) should be
inline function, not a macro
1) and 3) OK. Don't quite understand 2). I want to remove
the printfs in the SPL build, as it would blown up the
internal SoC RAM space available. So why add a condition
with CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT?
You've got 8KB, based on the final patch in the series. At
least in my SPL series that's still enough to get you
printf/puts (I believe 4kb was the cutoff where that had to
be dropped).
Barely:
$ size u-boot-spl text data bss dec
hex filename 3337 8 588 3933
f5d u-boot-spl
$ size u-boot-spl-printf text data bss dec
hex filename 7968 8 604 8580
2184 u-boot-spl-printf
The printf is not so important that justifies exhausting the
IRAM space available and preventing any future SPL
expansion...
There's two parts to this: - What else can you do in a single
binary, in theory? Is there boot medium detection and you would
want to have, for example, NAND and SD support in the same
binary? I would say memory is meant for using, but this is a
board maintainer decision and that's you :)
That's exactly what I've got in mind when I talked about a future
expansion! Being able to boot also from an SD card. With only 8KB
for .text and .data, I can not use printfs in the SPL for this
platform (at least with the present printf support for SPL).
- We have a define today (CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT) that
toggles printf or no printf. If we really need to say yes to
LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT and no to printf, we need finer grained config
options and then a do-nothing printf is used for SPL. Doing the
opt-out driver by driver just punts this problem down the road to
the next developer and that's not very nice (and adding
CONFIG_SPL_PRINTF_SUPPORT shouldn't be a big patch, modify a few
Makefiles, update a bunch of config files, add
common/spl/dummy_funcs.c and a __weak printf).
OK, so please take a stab at option two, on top of my SPL series,
keeping in mind what Scott has said (which makes sense) because
otherwise you'll be changing a lot of MMC files too to drop out printf :)
The solution that I sorted out on the current SPL framework was to add this:
#ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
#define printf(arg...) do {} while (0)
#ifdef CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT
#define puts(arg) serial_puts(arg)
#endif
#endif
on a CPU specific header. Marek told me to not use macros, but to
use inline functions instead, but has I told earlier on this thread,
I am unable to do that. Suggestions for doing this in a better way
are welcome...
It's gotta go in <common.h>, and something like
/* Big comment what / why */
#if !defined(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) || \
(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD && CONFIG_SPL_PRINTF_SUPPORT)
void putc(...);
void puts(...);
int printf(....);
#else
#define putc(c) serial_putc(c)
#define puts(s) serial_puts(s)
#define printf(arg...) do {} while (0)
#endif
Are macros OK to remove printf() and to replace putc()/puts() by
serial_putc()/serial_puts() in the SPL?
Shouldn’t we be using inline functions instead?
