2007-06-28[POWERPC] Make more OF-related bootwrapper functions available to non-OF ↵David Gibson
platforms Commit 2e6016133755eb3cc44e8efab92573d23ed75888 split up arch/powerpc/boot/of.c so that some OF functions can be used on platforms that don't want to use the overall OF platform boot code. This is useful on things like PReP which can have an OF implementation which is useful for debugging output, but inadequate for booting. However, that commit didn't export quite enough things to make a usable OF console on a non-OF system. In particular, the device tree manipulation performed to initialize the OF console code must explicitly use the OF device tree, rather than the flattened device tree, even if the system is otherwise booting using a flattened device tree. This makes it so. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-06-14[POWERPC] Split low-level OF-related bootloader code into separate filesDavid Gibson
Currently, all OF-related code in the bootloader is contained in of.c. of.c also provides the platform specific things necessary to boot on an OF platform. However, there are platforms (such as PReP) which can include an OF implementation, but are not bootable as pure OF systems. For use by such platforms, this patch splits out the low-level parts of the OF code (call_prom() and various wrappers thereof) into a new oflib.c file. In addition, the code related to bootwrapper console output via OF are moved to a new ofconsole.c file. Both these files are included in the wrapper.a library where they can be used by both full-OF and partial OF platforms.
