I see. Thanks for the update here. I might work on SPL support, if this
seems necessary for my custom i.MX6ULZ board.

I do have another question though. I'm currently testing QSPI booting
on the i.MX6ULL EVK. And this does not work 100% reliably. Sometimes
the board boots after programming of the IMX image to 0x1000 in QSPI
NOR to the U-Boot prompt. And sometimes I see no output at all. I
do have the QSPI binary programmed at 0x400. BTW, these binaries boot
all just fine when booted via the "imx_usb" loader. Only when booted
directly from QSPI (DIP switches) it fails sometimes.

Is this a known problem?

Do you have a reference U-Boot binary for QSPI booting for the i.MX6ULL
EVK? Best would be including the QSPI header (offset 0x400).

Thanks,
Stefan
