      EXT4: Fix number base handling of "ext4write" command · f7740f77
      Wolfgang Denk authored
      
      Unlike other commands (for example, "fatwrite"), ext4write would
      interpret the "sizebytes" as decimal number.  This is not only
      inconsistend and unexpected to most users, it also breaks usage
      like this:
      
      	tftp ${addr} ${name}
      	ext4write mmc 0:2 ${addr} ${filename} ${filesize}
      
      Change this to use the standard notation of base 16 input format.

      Fix number base handling of "load" command · b770e88a
      Wolfgang Denk authored
      As documented, almost all U-Boot commands expect numbers to be entered
      in hexadecimal input format. (Exception: for historical reasons, the
      "sleep" command takes its argument in decimal input format.)
      
      This rule was broken for the "load" command; for details please see
      especially commits 045fa1e1 "fs: add filesystem switch libary,
      implement ls and fsload commands" and 3f83c87e "fs: fix number base
      behaviour change in fatload/ext*load".  In the result, the load
      command would always require an explicit "0x" prefix for regular
      (i. e. base 16 formatted) input.
      
      Change this to use the standard notation of base 16 input format.
      While strictly speaking this is a change of the user interface, we
      hope that it will not cause trouble.  Stephen Warren comments (see
      [1]):
      
              I suppose you can change the behaviour if you want; anyone
              writing "0x..." for their values presumably won't be
              affected, and if people really do assume all values in U-Boot
              are in hex, presumably nobody currently relies upon using
              non-prefixed values with the generic load command, since it
              doesn't work like that right now.

      fs: rename fsload command to load · f9b55e22
      Stephen Warren authored
      
      When the generic filesystem load command "fsload" was written, I felt
      that "load" was too generic of a name for it, since many other similar
      commands already existed. However, it turns out that there is already
      an "fsload" command, so that name cannot be used. Rename the new
      "fsload" to plain "load" to avoid the conflict. At least anyone who's
      used a Basic interpreter should feel familiar with the name!

      fs: fix number base behaviour change in fatload/ext*load · 3f83c87e
      Stephen Warren authored
      
      Commit 045fa1e1 "fs: add filesystem switch libary, implement ls and
      fsload commands" unified the implementation of fatload and ext*load
      with the new command fsload. However, this altered the interpretation
      of command-line numbers from always being base-16, to requiring a "0x"
      prefix for base-16 numbers. Enhance do_fsload() to allow commands to
      specify which base to use.
      
      Use base 0, thus requiring a "0x" prefix for the new fsload command.
      This feels much cleaner than assuming base 16.
      
      Use base 16 for the pre-existing fatload and ext*load to prevent a
      change in behaviour.
      
      Use base 16 exclusively for the loadaddr environment variable, since
      that variable is interpreted in multiple places, so we don't want the
      behaviour to change.
      
      Update command help text to make it clear where numbers are assumed to
      be hex, and where an explicit "0x" prefix is required.

      cmd_ext4: remove TABs from command help text · b6a30444

      TABs in the help text won't line up in the same place on the console as
      in a source editor. Replace them with spaces to make ensuring correct
      alignment easier.

      disk: get_device_and_partition() "auto" partition and cleanup · 10a37fd7
      Stephen Warren authored
      
      Rework get_device_and_partition() to:
      a) Implement a new partition ID of "auto", which requests that U-Boot
         search for the first "bootable" partition, and fall back to the first
         valid partition if none is found. This way, users don't need to
         specify an explicit partition in their commands.
      b) Make use of get_device().
      c) Add parameter to indicate whether returning a whole device is
         acceptable, or whether a partition is mandatory.
      d) Make error-checking of the user's device-/partition-specification
         more complete. In particular, if strtoul() doesn't convert all
         characters, it's an error rather than just ignored.
      
      The resultant device/partition returned by the function will be as
      follows, based on whether the disk has a partition table (ptable) or not,
      and whether the calling command allows the whole device to be returned
      or not.
      
      (D and P are integers, P >= 1)
      
      D
      D:
        No ptable:
          !allow_whole_dev: error
          allow_whole_dev: device D
        ptable:
          device D partition 1
      D:0
        !allow_whole_dev: error
        allow_whole_dev: device D
      D:P
        No ptable: error
        ptable: device D partition P
      D:auto
        No ptable:
          !allow_whole_dev: error
          allow_whole_dev: device D
        ptable:
          first partition in device D with bootable flag set.
          If none, first valid paratition in device D.
      
      Note: In order to review this patch, it's probably easiest to simply
      look at the file contents post-application, rather than reading the
      patch itself.

      [swarren: Rob implemented scanning for bootable partitions. I fixed a
      couple of issues there, switched the syntax to ":auto", added the
      error-checking rework, and ":0" syntax for the whole device]

      Convert ext2/4 load, ls, and write functions to use common device and
      partition parsing function. With the common function "dev:part" can come
      from the environment and a '-' can be used in that case.
