[PATCH 9/15] bootwrapper: rtas support

Milton Miller miltonm at bga.com
Sat Sep 22 09:05:30 EST 2007


This code provides a console write that calls put-term-char.

To avoid PIC relocation of the absolute rtas addresses, hide the
actual call to rtas in assembly and declare all variables as int.

An instantiated rtas will be protected by a reserved range in the
device tree, so no explicit call to add_occupied_range is needed
here.

rtas_put_term_write now takes const char *buf
