nios2: Fix printf size_t format related warnings (again...)
When compiling the current code on GCC 4.8.3, the following warnings
appear:
warning: format '%zu' expects argument of type 'size_t', but argument
2 has type 'long unsigned int' [-Wformat=]
There were many mails about such warnings on different architectures.
This patch limits itself to the nios2 architecture.
The problem is that for the size_t (%zu, %zd, ...) arguments of
printf GCC does not verify the type match to size_t type. It verifies
the type match to the compiler-defined __SIZE_TYPE__ type. Thus, if
size_t is defined different from __SIZE_TYPE__ - warnings inevitably
appear.
There is a comment by Thomas Chou to the (rejected) patch:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/272102/
which explains that the older GCC toolchains (gcc-3.4.6 and gcc-4.1.2)
expect size_t to be "unsigned long" and the newer expect it to be
"unsigned int". Thus, no matter how we define size_t - either way
warnings appear when using some GCC version.
By rejecting that patch, a choice was made to prefer older GCC versions
and leave the warnings when building with the newer toolchains.
Personally, I disagree with this choice...
In any case, this patch proposes a way to fix the warnings for any GCC
version. Just define size_t using the __SIZE_TYPE__ compiler-defined
type and the type verification will pass.
I tested that this fixes the warning on GCC 4.8.3. I don't have an
older toolchain to test with, but __SIZE_TYPE__ was definitely defined
in GCC 3.4.6, so it should work there too.

kconfig: convert Kconfig helper script into a shell script
Commit 51148790 added scripts/multiconfig.py written in Python 2
to adjust Kconfig for U-Boot.
It has been hard for Python 3 users because Python 2 and Python 3
are not compatible with each other.
We are not happy about adding a new host tool dependency
(in this case, Python version dependency) for the core build process.
After some discussion, we decided to use only basic tools.
The script may get a bit more unreadable by shell scripting,
but we believe it is worthwhile.
In addition, this commit revives "<board>_config" target that is
equivalent to "<board>_defconfig" for backwards compatibility.
It is annoying to adjust various projects which use U-Boot.

net: More BOOTP retry timeout improvements
It's not unusual for DHCP servers to take a couple hundred milliseconds
to respond to DHCP discover messages. One possible reason for the delay
can be that the server checks (typically using an ARP request) that the
IP it's about to hand out isn't in use yet. To make matters worse, some
servers may also queue up requests and process them sequentially, which
can cause excessively long delays if clients retry too fast.
Commit f59be6e850b3 ("net: BOOTP retry timeout improvements") shortened
the retry timeouts significantly, but the BOOTP/DHCP implementation in
U-Boot doesn't handle that well because it will ignore incoming replies
to earlier requests. In one particular setup this increases the time it
takes to obtain a DHCP lease from 630 ms to 8313 ms.
This commit attempts to fix this in two ways. First it increases the
initial retry timeout from 10 ms to 250 ms to give DHCP servers some
more time to respond. At the same time a cache of outstanding DHCP
request IDs is kept so that the implementation will know to continue
transactions even after a retransmission of the DISCOVER message. The
maximum retry timeout is also increased from 1 second to 2 seconds. An
ID cache of size 4 will keep DHCP requests around for 8 seconds (once
the maximum retry timeout has been reached) before dropping them. This
should give servers plenty of time to respond. If it ever turns out
that this isn't enough, the size of the cache can easily be increased.
With this commit the DHCP lease on the above-mentioned setup still takes
longer (1230 ms) than originally, but that's an acceptable compromise to
improve DHCP lease acquisition time for a broader range of setups.
To make it easier to benchmark DHCP in the future, this commit also adds
the time it took to obtain a lease to the final "DHCP client bound to
address x.x.x.x" message.

powerpc/T4240QDS/eth: some fix for XFI
XFI is supported on T4QDS-XFI board, which removed slot3, and four LANEs
of serdes2 are routed to a SFP+ cages, which to house fiber cable or
direct attach cable(copper), the copper cable is used to emulate the
10GBASE-KR scenario.
So, for XFI usage, there are two scenarios, one will use fiber cable,
another will use copper cable. For fiber cable, there is NO PHY, while
for copper cable, we need to use internal PHY which exist in Serdes to
do auto-negotiation and link training, which implemented in kernel.
We use hwconfig to define cable type for XFI, and fixup dtb based on the
cable type.
For copper cable, set below env in hwconfig:
fsl_10gkr_copper:<10g_mac_name>
the <10g_mac_name> can be fm1_10g1, fm1_10g2, fm2_10g1, fm2_10g2. The
four <10g_mac_name>s do not have to be coexist in hwconfig. For XFI ports,
if a given 10G port will use the copper cable for 10GBASE-KR, set the
<10g_mac_name> of the port in hwconfig, otherwise, fiber cable will be
assumed to be used for the port.
For ex. if four XFI ports will both use copper cable, the hwconfig
should contain:
1. give PHY address to a XFI port, otherwise, the XFI ports will not be
available in U-boot, there is no PHY physically for XFI when using fiber
cable, this is just to make U-boot happy and we can use the XFI ports
in U-boot.
2. fixup dtb to use fixed-link in case of fiber cable which has no PHY.
Kernel requests that a MAC must have a PHY or fixed-link.
When using XFI protocol, the MAC 9/10 on FM1 should init as 10G interface.
Change serdes 2 protocol 56 to 55 which has same feature as 56 since 56
is not valid any longer.

If a 32-bit system has 2GB of RAM, and the base address of that RAM is
2GB, then start+size will overflow a 32-bit value (to a value of 0).
__lmb_alloc_base is affected by this; it calculates the minimum of
(start+size of RAM) and max_addr. However, when start+size is 0, it
is always less than max_addr, which causes the value of max_addr not
to be taken into account when restricting the allocation's location.
Fix this by calculating start+size separately, and if that calculation
underflows, using -1 (interpreted as the max unsigned value) as the
value instead, and then taking the min of that and max_addr. Now that
start+size doesn't overflow, it's typically large, and max_addr
dominates the min() call, and is taken into account.
The user-visible symptom of this bug is that CONFIG_BOOTMAP_SZ is ignored
on Tegra124 systems with 2GB of RAM, which in turn causes the DT to be
relocated at the very end of RAM, which the ARM Linux kernel doesn't map
during early boot, and which causes boot failures. With this fix,

net: BOOTP retry timeout improvements
Currently, the BOOTP code sends out its initial request as soon as the
Ethernet driver indicates "link up". If this packet is lost or not
replied to for some reason, the code waits for a 1s timeout before
retrying. For some reason, such early packets are often lost on my
system, so this causes an annoying delay.
To optimize this, modify the BOOTP code to have very short timeouts for
the first packet transmitted, but gradually increase the timeout each
time a timeout occurs. This way, if the first packet is lost, the second
packet is transmitted quite quickly and hence the overall delay is low.
However, if there's still no response, we don't keep spewing out packets
at an insane speed.
It's arguably more correct to try and find out why the first packet is
lost. However, it seems to disappear inside my Ethenet chip; the TX chip
indicates no error during TX (not that it has much in the way of
reporting...), yet wireshark on the RX side doesn't see any packet.
FWIW, I'm using an ASIX USB Ethernet adapter. Perhaps "link up" is
reported too early or based on the wrong condition in HW, and we should
add some fixed extra delay into the driver. However, this would slow down
every link up event even if it ends up not being needed in some cases.
Having BOOTP retry quickly applies the fix/WAR to every possible
Ethernet device, and is quite simple to implement, so seems a better
solution.

This causes the following scenario:
* Boot script executes dhcp; pxe get; pxe boot
* User CTRL-C's the PXE menu, which causes the first menu item to be
booted, which causes some file to be downloaded.

* User re-runs the boot command, which in my case executes "dhcp; pxe get;

variable and proceeds to download a file that it shouldn't.
To solve this, modify the implementation of "pxe get" to clear BootFile

An alternative would be to modify netboot_common() such that the no-
arguments case explicitly clears the global variable BootFile. However,
that would prevent the following command sequences from working:
