iMX8MP - Falcon Mode in QSPI Boot Implementation

[Nitzan Tavor]

 Dear U-Boot community list members,

I have a NXP i.MX8M Plus EVB which I'm trying to enable Falcon mode in secure boot from QSPI on it. I saw that there is no defconfig file for this boot method (using FlexSPI) so I took imx8mp_evk_defconfig and modified it manually to the attached configuration file (Which does not contain secure boot configurations).
I encountered an issue where I'm able to load all the FIT image components (ATF, DTB and Kernel images) into RAM, but after the ATF finished its run, the Kernel doesn't start (When I used the Falcon mode in SD/eMMC boot mode - The Kernel Started its initialization right after ATF run).

Can you please advise what could be the problem? Or what in your opinion is the best (and fastest) way to fix and solve this issue?

Thank you in advance,
Nitzan Tavor.
