v2 combines the previous submissions, and adds some suggested fixes/changes. The sunxi-tool side of things is discussed here: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-sunxi@googlegroups.com/msg13071.html * Hans de Goede already pointed out that it might be preferable to make use of the spl_boot_device() function even from the main (non-SPL) U-Boot binary (e.g. for the "NAND" case). Currently this function is only available with CONFIG_SPL_BUILD set, and implemented in arch/arm/cpu/armv7/sunxi/board.c Would it be safe to enable it for non-SPL builds and use something like "(spl_boot_device == BOOT_DEVICE_BOARD)" for misc_init_r()? * Side note: the sunxi spl_boot_device() will probably require some future refinement anyway, to account for the 'oddball' A80. That SoC requires the SPL at a different address (0x10000 instead of 0x0). * The test for FEL boot mode ("eGON.BT0") in spl_boot_device() explicitly uses the "io" function readl() to access the signature. Is there a specific reason for this? Marex pointed out (on IRC) that the SRAM might as well be read directly. For now, I have followed the existing code, and used readl() and readb() to work with the SPL header information. * The check_signature() function somewhat duplicates very similar code from arch/arm/include/asm/io.h. That particular piece of code depends on the presence of a "__mem_pci" symbol. However, it seems 'generic' enough - so it may be worth to factor out and reuse it? Regards, B. Nortmann Changes in v2: - Rename field to fel_script_address, discard fel_data_size - Clearing header fields is no longer needed, as mksunxiboot.c zeroes entire image first - renamed fel_data_addr to fel_script_addr, discarded fel_data_size - make sure that FEL-related environment vars are always cleared first - support minimum and maximum SPL (header) version, more verbose error messages - renamed fel_data_addr to fel_scriptaddr - combined both tests into one as suggested by Hans de Goede Bernhard Nortmann (3): sunxi: (mksunxiboot) signature to indicate "sunxi" SPL variant sunxi: retrieve FEL-provided values to environment variables sunxi: add "fel" boot target board/sunxi/board.c | 56 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/configs/sunxi-common.h | 11 +++++++++ tools/mksunxiboot.c | 23 ++++++++++++++++- 3 files changed, 89 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) -- 2.4.6 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
