[PATCH 2/2] arm: axiado: Add AX3005 based SCM3005 board support

Karthikeyan Mitran kmitran at axiado.com
Wed Apr 29 04:32:37 CEST 2026


From: Siu Ming Tong <smtong at axiado.com>

Add U-Boot board support for the Axiado AX3005 based targets, a quad-core
ARM Cortex-A53 (ARMv8) platform.

Board Kconfig introduces ARCH_AX3005, which selects ARM64, driver
model, GIC-v3, and Zynq UART. TARGET_SCM3005 selects ARCH_AX3005,
allowing future SoC variants to share the platform configuration.

Secondary cores use spin-table boot. ft_board_setup() corrects
the cpu-release-addr in the FDT, which arch_fixup_fdt() overwrites
with the post-relocation address. The board linker script pins
spin_table_v8.o at offset 0x2fa0 from text base to match the
address declared in the device tree.
