2015-04-06New mechanism to define SRAM/memory map with automatic bounds checkingJulius Werner
This patch creates a new mechanism to define the static memory layout (primarily in SRAM) for a given board, superseding the brittle mass of Kconfigs that we were using before. The core part is a memlayout.ld file in the mainboard directory (although boards are expected to just include the SoC default in most cases), which is the primary linker script for all stages (though not rmodules for now). It uses preprocessor macros from <memlayout.h> to form a different valid linker script for all stages while looking like a declarative, boilerplate-free map of memory addresses to the programmer. Linker asserts will automatically guarantee that the defined regions cannot overlap. Stages are defined with a maximum size that will be enforced by the linker. The file serves to both define and document the memory layout, so that the documentation cannot go missing or out of date. The mechanism is implemented for all boards in the ARM, ARM64 and MIPS architectures, and should be extended onto all systems using SRAM in the future. The CAR/XIP environment on x86 has very different requirements and the layout is generally not as static, so it will stay like it is and be unaffected by this patch (save for aligning some symbol names for consistency and sharing the new common ramstage linker script include). BUG=None TEST=Booted normally and in recovery mode, checked suspend/resume and the CBMEM console on Falco, Blaze (both normal and vboot2), Pinky and Pit. Compiled Ryu, Storm and Urara, manually compared the disassemblies with ToT and looked for red flags.

2015-04-06build system: run linker scripts through the preprocessorPatrick Georgi
This allows combining and simplifying linker scripts. This is inspired by the commit listed below, but rewritten to match upstream, and split in smaller pieces to keep intent clear.

2015-03-30mips: Simplify architecture specific Makefile.incPatrick Georgi
The mips Makefile was inherited from x86 and so included lots of stuff that is necessary on x86 but nowhere else. That cruft is now gone. It also adopts the non-x86 approach of handling linker scripts, hardcoding an include to ldoptions there, instead of manual concatenation (of just one file plus options). This is inspired by the commit listed below, but rewritten to match upstream, and split in smaller pieces to keep intent clear.

2015-03-21arch/mips: Add base MIPS architecture supportPaul Burton
Add the build infrastructure and basic architectural support required to build for targets using the MIPS architecture. This is sufficient to run on a simulator, but will require the addition of some cache maintenance and timer setup in order to run on real hardware.
