* | boot: add framework for redundant boot scenariosMarc Kleine-Budde2016-09-223-0/+277
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are several use cases where a redundant Linux system is needed. The barebox bootchooser framework provides the building blocks to model different use cases without the need to start from the scratch over and over again. The bootchooser works on abstract boot targets, each with a set of properties and implements an algorithm which selects the highest priority target to boot. See the documentation contained in this patch for more information.

* | Introduce non volatile device variablesSascha Hauer2016-07-061-0/+18
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non volatile device variables are used to make device parameters persistent. They are like normal non volatile variables, but set the values of the device parameters with the corresponding name. Every nv variable beginning with nv.dev is a non volatile device variable. They have the form nv.dev.<devname>.<paramname> and act on the parameter <paramname> of the device named <devname>. The non volatile device variables are designated for example for video modes, ethernet device ip addresses or mtd partitioning. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>
* bootm: Optionally add a root= option to Kernel command lineSascha Hauer2016-05-041-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | It becomes a common case that the Kernel is loaded from the filesystem which later becomes the rootfs. This adds a possibility to let bootm automatically append the root= option to the kernel command line. This is done when global.bootm.appendroot is true.

* bbu: Allow to refresh/repair imagesSascha Hauer2016-04-081-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Some SoCs allow to store multiple boot images on a device in order to improve robustness. This adds a -r option to barebox_update to indicate we do not want to make an update but instead repair/refresh an existing image. Handlers which want to support this feature must set the BBU_HANDLER_CAN_REFRESH flag during registration. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using NFS in conjunction with boot spec and the feature to let Barebox auto generate a kernel command line must keep the options the NFS filesystem was mounted in Barebox. This patch extends the kernel command line parameter on demand if something different than the defaults are used. The command: barebox:/ boot nfs://myhost//root expands to the kernel command line: nfsroot=myhost:/root,v3,tcp while the command: barebox:/ boot nfs://myhost:2049//root expands now to the kernel command line: nfsroot=myhost:/root,v3,tcp,mountport=2049,port=2049 Signed-off-by: Juergen Borleis <jbe@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes it possible to automatically add a suitable root= option for booting Linux from the same filesystem on which the bootspec entry has been found. This adds an additional 'linux-appendroot' option to bootspec which if set to 'true' will cause barebox to automatically add a root= option. This currently works for NFS, UBIFS and regular block devices like ATA, SD/MMC using the root=PARTUUID= mechanism. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

* Add support for non volatile variablesSascha Hauer2014-11-061-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds (back) support for non volatile variables. Non volatile variables are variables which are stored in the environment over reboot. They are used in the same way as the global variables, but with a 'nv' command and device. The variables are stored under /env/nv/, one variable per file. Adding a nv variable automatically adds a global variable with the same name. Changing a nv variable also changes the same global variable, but not the other way round. This allows for example to configure the username as: nv user=sha; saveenv Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>
