No. I think behavior is still the same as before.
In a single .config, we cannot define two CPUs in Kconfig.
So, we only define CPU_V7, for the main processors.
For SPL, we override the "CPU" in config.mk
ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD ifdef CONFIG_TEGRA CPU := arm720t endif endif
I know what you might be saying is, this is too ugly. Yes.
I think we can do a little better with further rafactoring, but the basic idea is, SPL of Tegra is a special case.
Yes I saw that, I understand now. So SPL_BUILD is no longer available in Kconfig, but is still available in Makefiles, right?
Yes, exactly!
This all works fine on Tegra for me. However I like to suggest dropping a few patches in this series.
I don't think it is worth using ARCH_MALLOC_F_LEN. In fact for me the Tegra defconfig looks OK and SPL is built correctly.
My remaining question is about that Tegra seems to want USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC for SPL but not for U-Boot. I'm not sure why, nor whether it matters. It seems to work find using it for both.
Depending on the toolchain, we actively need USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC for SPL, and don't /need/ it for non-SPL. However, enabling USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC for non-SPL likely won't hurt.
The issue is that the libgcc bundled with most compilers is for ARMv7 (since we tend to use ARMv7 compilers, since the main U-boot is built for ARMv7). That bundled libgcc won't work on the ARMv4 that runs the SPL, so we need USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC there. The private libgcc bundled with U-Boot should work fine when built for either CPU, so it is OK to always use it, rather than only use it when strictly needed.
