    Maybe it's not, I recall that the SPL sometimes failed when it grew too
    large and noone explained in a satisfactory way why. Maybe the commit
    just triggers this.


I know. That's why I just tested with a smaller config where I disable spi and spi-flash drivers. The SPL binary is now only 40kbyte but the error remains the same.

I wonder if the cause might be that now malloc_simple() is called earlier than before?

And this was the right direction: malloc_simple just did not work at that time in the boot. But after fixing this (patches pending) other things (e.g. in dm core) did not work.

The solution was to call 'spl_early_init()' from socfpga's 'boart_init_f()', which not only correctly inits the heap but also inits the dm code.

Now the SPL is working for me, too! :-)

I'll have to prepare patches on top of the current git master though: for now, I have only tested changes on this patch.

I really don't know how this could have worked for other socfpga boards, but I saw the SPL split coming later after this patch, and I must say I don't think it's such a good idea. I'd prefer if all the socfpga platforms could stay with one SPL. That would greatly reduce that chance of old platforms getting broken like this.

Thanks,
Simon
