[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 3/3] sunxi: Normalise FEL support

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Sat Feb 7 18:47:30 CET 2015


Make sunxi's FEL code fit with the normal U-Boot boot sequence instead of
creating its own. There are some #ifdefs required in start.S. Future work
will hopefully remove these.

This series is available at u-boot-dm, branch sunxi-working.

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>
---

Changes in v2:
- Adjust for new save_boot_params() API
- Drop patch to change r0 to r2 in start.S
- Add #ifdefs to start.S to deal with FEL
- Use 'Fast Early Loader' as the full name for FEL

+	  This enables support for Fast Early Loader (FEL) mode. This

+	  'fel write 0x2000 u-boot-spl.bin; fel exe 0x2000' then U-Boot with

+	  shrinks the amount of SRAM available to SPL, so only enable it if
+	  you need FEL. Note that enabling this option only allows FEL to be
+	  used; it is still possible to boot U-Boot from boot media. U-Boot
+	  SPL detects when it is being loaded using FEL.
