adds sun4i and sun5i support
Does this series omit FEL mode support or did you just not include it for the new boards?
I just did not include it.
I think in general we want a _FEL variant for every board except the minority which don't have an OTG port etc.
I'm not sold on this idea. Normal users (and distros) will never use the FEL variants, and a developer needing a FEL build can just as easily edit boards.cfg, instead of us having 2 lines there for each and every sunxi board (of which there are *a lot*.
Actually Debian is providing the FEL binaries for CT in its u-boot packages already.
Hmm, ok.
I was planning to provide a script to automatically install Debian starting from a bare board booted in FEL mode from a host system and getting the installer to put the bootloader on the MMC etc etc. (I'm a long way from actually having this working...)
Interesting (mostly for emmc devices, of which there are a few sunxi ones now).
I'm still not sold on having 2 entries for each and every board though.
Have you looked at extending the SPL buildsys bits, which in essence do 2 builds, to do 3 builds for sunxi, so that we simply always build both SPL flavors?
