This series adds NXP's Serial Download Protocol (SDP) support via
USB for SPL/U-Boot. It allows to download U-Boot via USB from a
(recovered) SPL using the same tools used to download SPL itself
(specifically imx_usb, but also sb_loader seems to work).
The idea has been brought up when the first targets started to make
use of SPL for DDR initialization, see:
https://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2015-July/220330.html
The initial SDP implementation (patch 2) requires the payload to
have the imx specific headers (hence the move of the imx header
file in patch 1).
Patch 3 extends image header support beyond the SDP specification,
specifically implements also support for U-Boot headers. This
allows to use the same SPL/U-Boot binaries for recovery as used on
the regular boot device (SD/eMMC). For that to work also the host
side imx_usb tools needed an extension, currently available here:
https://github.com/toradex/imx_loader/tree/imx_usb_batch_mode_refactored
(in case this patchset gets accepted in U-Boot, I plan to push
these imx_usb changes upstream as well)
The full patchset allows to download SPL and U-Boot over USB to a
target in recovery mode using the same usb_imx utility. Refer to
the new README.sdp for details how to use usb_imx in combination
with this implementation.
Changes in v2:
- Changed function signature of sdp_init/sdp_handle to allow specifying
which USB controller should be used.
- Use #defines for security mode
- Improved types used in format strings
- Changed function signature of sdp_init/sdp_handle
- Use BOOT_DEVICE_BOARD
