Would it be possible to implement having the next stage also be sent via imx_usb_loader? ie there's examples today of doing u-boot.imx + kernel
- initrd via imx_usb_loader, so what would be needed for SPL +
u-boot.img (+ kenrel + initrd) via imx_usb_loader? Thanks!
SPL+u-boot.img could be bundled into a single image through the use of plugins which would require:
- updates to mkimage to support plugins, and
- Makefile updates to produce a third output (u-boot.imx?), and
- an update to SPL startup on i.MX to check for the plugin flag
and return to the boot ROM after startup (instead of loading U-Boot) if set.
It appears that the mkimage support is present in a patch against v2015.04:

Peng, can you up-stream this?
Hi Stefano,
I would like see your points on this. I tried to uptream plugin before, but rejected, Since more people would like to see this in, do you agree to let plugin supported in mainline?
Yes - I see a general agreement to get in mainline, and thanks for the effort to push it.
Best regards, Stefano
