bootconfig: Increase max nodes of bootconfig from 1024 to 8192 for DCC support

2023-02-21T23:27:49+00:00

The Data Capture and Compare(DCC) is a debugging tool that uses the bootconfig
for configuring the register values during boot-time. Increase the max nodes
supported by bootconfig to cater to the requirements of the Data Capture and
Compare Driver.

bootconfig: Support embedding a bootconfig file in kernel

2022-04-26T21:58:51+00:00

This allows kernel developer to embed a default bootconfig file in
the kernel instead of embedding it in the initrd. This will be good
for who are using the kernel without initrd, or who needs a default
bootconfigs.
This needs to set two kconfigs: CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y and set
the file path to CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE.

Note that you still need 'bootconfig' command line option to load the
embedded bootconfig. Also if you boot using an initrd with a different
bootconfig, the kernel will use the bootconfig in the initrd, instead
of the default bootconfig.

bootconfig: Cleanup dummy headers in tools/bootconfig

2021-10-11T02:16:02+00:00

Cleanup dummy headers in tools/bootconfig/include except
for tools/bootconfig/include/linux/bootconfig.h.
For this change, I use __KERNEL__ macro to split kernel
header #include and introduce xbc_alloc_mem() and
xbc_free_mem().

bootconfig: Replace u16 and u32 with uint16_t and uint32_t

that the tools/bootconfig only needs .

bootconfig: Rename xbc_destroy_all() to xbc_exit()

2021-10-11T00:44:05+00:00

Avoid using this noisy name and use more calm one.
This is just a name change. No functional change.

bootconfig: Add xbc_get_info() for the node information

2021-10-11T00:43:53+00:00

Add xbc_get_info() API which allows user to get the
number of used xbc_nodes and the size of bootconfig
data. This is also useful for checking the bootconfig
is initialized or not.

bootconfig: Allocate xbc_data inside xbc_init()

Allocate 'xbc_data' in the xbc_init() so that it does
not need to care about the ownership of the copied
data.

bootconfig: Rename xbc_node_find_child() to xbc_node_find_subkey()

2021-09-09T23:14:33+00:00

Rename xbc_node_find_child() to xbc_node_find_subkey() for
clarifying that function returns a key node (no value node).
Since there are xbc_node_for_each_child() (loop on all child
nodes) and xbc_node_for_each_subkey() (loop on only subkey
nodes), this name distinction is necessary to avoid confusing
users.

Fix some spelling mistakes in comments found by "codespell":

representaion ==> representation
uppon ==> upon
independend ==> independent
aquired ==> acquired
mis-match ==> mismatch
scrach ==> scratch
struture ==> structure
Analagous ==> Analogous

And some were discovered manually by Joe Perches and Christoph Lameter:
stroed ==> stored
arch independent ==> an architecture independent
