Thanks!
Not sure if it is desired, but it's needed. The weak function in start.S just initialises the GIC (if configured), that looks like a NOP for sunxi to me (we do this already much better in ARM Trusted Firmware). For 32-bit sunxi we call s_init() through lowlevel_init(), which is what I copy here for armv8. Now there is this comment which discourages doing so and Alex already complained about it as well, so I might take a look at how we would skip this step. I was a bit wary going there as this would mean to rework the 32-bit code as well, which affects a lot of boards, which I can barely test here. Cheers, Andre. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
