[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 3/4] sunxi: retrieve FEL-provided values to environment variables

Thu Sep 17 18:52:52 CEST 2015


This patch extends the misc_init_r() function on sunxi boards
to test for the presence of a suitable "sunxi" SPL header. If
found, and the loader ("fel" utility) provided a non-zero value
for the boot.scr address, then the corresponding environment
variable fel_scriptaddr gets set.

misc_init_r() also sets (or clears) the "fel_booted" variable depending
on the active boot device, using the same logic as spl_boot_device().

The goal is to provide sufficient information (within the U-Boot
environment) to make intelligent decisions on how to continue the boot
process, allowing specific customizations for the "FEL boot" case.

Changes in v3:
- make use of asm/arch/spl.h to share definitions / helper macro
- revert SPL version check to expect exact SPL_HEADER_VERSION

Changes in v2:
- 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
