Hi,
this is the second spin of the SPL support series for the Allwinner A64 SoC. Thanks for the review comments, I hope I addressed all of them. As v1, this one includes support for both AArch64 and AArch32 SPL builds. The FIT support is still missing, which means the functionality is limited. Due to the missing ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF) in this firmware chain we lose Ethernet and SMP, among other minor things. A full 64-bit build can be written to an SD card as expected and will boot the U-Boot proper prompt. However Linux will crash on boot, as PSCI is missing. Building the 32-bit version of the SPL and combining this with an ATF build and the 64-bit U-Boot proper allows to use FEL booting now: # sunxi-fel spl sunxi-spl.bin write 0x4a000000 u-boot-dtb.bin \ write 0x44000 bl31.bin reset64 0x44000
The first patch is a fix, which has been slightly tweaked compared to v1 (see below). Patch 2-7 prepare the SPL code to be compiled for 64-bit in general and AArch64 in particular. Patch 8-10 refactor the existing boot0 header functionality to be used by patch 11, which introduces the 64-bit switch in the first SPL instructions. Patches 12-16 then introduce the actual core of the SPL support: the DRAM initialization, courtesy of Jens. This piggy backs on the existing H3 DRAM code, deviating where needed. Patch 18 finally enables the 64-bit SPL support. So now building the existing pine64_plus_defconfig will generate a sunxi-spl.bin, which can be prepended to the U-Boot proper image (not .bin) to boot from an SD card. Due to the missing ATF support this is of limited usability at the moment, though. Also FEL support requires more love - to switch back to AArch32 before returning to FEL (without crashing, that is ;-), so this is disabled. On my setup this results in a 26KB SPL binary, which is close to the 28K limit mksunxiboot imposes at the moment. Adding anything (like FIT support or DEBUG) will exceed this, and although I have patches to let mksunxiboot get close to 32KB, this is the ulimate frontier.
So patches 19-22 then teach the SPL how to detect an U-Boot image file of a different bitness and do the RMR switch from AArch32 to AArch64, if needed. This is used by the final patch 23, which creates another _defconfig to let the SPL compile for AArch32 using the Thumb2 encoding. This results in a binary of less than 17KB in my case, so has plenty of room for extensions.
Cheers, Andre.
Changelog v1 .. v2: - drop SPI build fix (already merged) - confine A31 register init change to H3 and A64 - use IS_ENABLED() instead of #idef to guard MBUS2 clock init - fix tiny-printf (proper sign extension for 32-bit integers) - add "size" output in commit msg to document tiny-printf size impact - fix sdelay(): use only one register, add "cc" clobber - update RMR switch code to provide easy access to RVBAR register address - drop redundant DRAM frequency setting from Pine64 defconfig - minor changes as requested by reviewers
