Hello Bin,
You understood me, seems, perfectly. And this is what I am talking about here.
The whole story told by Andy (Shevchenko) as RE: to my other thread does not stand, just because of the booting times.
But I need Andy's story (further) to investigate, and have currently no any spare/free time. But I will later.
And, BTW, you addressed me (wrongly). You should address Simon. To be politically correct. ;-)
Thank you, Zoran

Yes but at the time there was no FSP. I suspect now it would not be

What about booting times? How long it'll take to boot EFI -> U-Boot -> OS loader -> init process on x86?
My best guess at least/minimum 10s. Did anybody measure the booting time?
I thought we were discussing U-Boot running as bare metal on the x86 processor. Booting U-Boot from a UEFI BIOS is nice, but that's not the main usage for U-Boot x86.
