+DDR QuickBoot flow
+------------------
+
+Some NXP boards (which use OEI - iMX943, iMX95) support saving DDR
+training data to non-volatile memory, which is then available to OEI
+at next cold reboot. OEI uses the saved data to run Quickboot flow and
+avoid training the DDR again. This significantly reduces the boot time.
+
+There are 2 ways to save this data:
+
+1. automatically, in SPL (by enabling CONFIG_SPL_IMX_QB)
+
+- this will save the data on the current boot device (e.g. SD)
+- other configs specific to the boot device need to be enabled (CONFIG_SPL_MMC_WRITE for saving to eMMC/SD)
+
+2. using qb command in U-Boot console (by enabling CONFIG_CMD_IMX_QB)
+
+- supports saving on the current boot device, or on another, specified device.
+- if flashing via uuu, the command can be added in an uuu script (boot device needs to be specified)
+- after save, the data in volatile memory is erased, so saving can happen only once per DDR training
+
+::
+
+        # To save/erase on current boot device
+        => qb save/erase
+
+        # To save/erase on other boot device
+        => qb save/erase mmc 0 # eMMC
+        => qb save/erase mmc 1 # SD
+        => qb save/erase spi   # NOR SPI
