[U-Boot] [PATCH V10 5/7] omap-common/spl: Add linux boot to SPL

Tue Dec 13 11:20:46 CET 2011


From: Simon Schwarz <simonschwarzcor at googlemail.com>

This adds Linux booting to the SPL

This depends on CONFIG_MACH_TYPE patch by Igor Grinberg
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/105809)

Related CONFIGs:
CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
	Activates/Deactivates the OS booting feature
CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT_KEY
	defines the IO-pin number u-boot switch - if pressed u-boot is
	booted
CONFIG_SYS_NAND_SPL_KERNEL_OFFS
	Offset in NAND of direct boot kernel image to use in SPL
CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR
	Address where the kernel boot arguments are expected - this is
	normaly RAM-begin + 0x100

V2 changes:
nothing

V3 changes:
nothing

V4 changes:
CHG Using CONFIG_MACH_TYPE now.
DEL CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MACHID
CHG Use CONFIG_MACH_TYPE for machine id config - This makes the patch
	depending on the patch linked above

V5 changes:
FIX compile errors for OMAP4
REBASE u-boot-ti adapted new general gpio interface

V6 changes:
nothing

V7 changes:
FIX multiline comment style
	(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/113501)

V8 changes:
REBASE on u-boot

V9 changes:
nothing

V10 changes:
CHG used short form to mark not returning function
DEL devkit8000 config changes from this patch
CHG spl_uboot_key renamed to spl_start_uboot and defined weak to be
	implemented board specific
CHG If the Linux image for the direct OS boot is not found the SPL tries
	to load a u-boot image
CHG %X in %p in debug message
