On 08/29/2017 12:02 AM, Sumit Garg wrote:
Using changes in this patch we were able to reduce approx 8k size of u-boot-spl.bin image. Following is breif description of changes to reduce SPL size:
- Changes in board/freescale/ls1088a/Makefile to remove compilation of eth.c and cpld.c in case of SPL build.
- Changes in board/freescale/ls1088a/ls1088a.c to keep board_early_init_f funcations in case of SPL build.
- Changes in ls1088a_common.h & ls1088ardb.h to remove driver specific macros due to which static data was being compiled in case of SPL build.
- Enable CONFIG_SYS_DCACHE_OFF in case of SPL build as DCACHE is not being enabled in case of SPL image but was compiled in to add redundant code.

Dependent on ls1088 base SD boot target. Also dependent on ls1088 QPSI secure boot target.

How much space can you save with data cache off? I prefer to leave the cache on. Cache is used if PPA is loaded in SPL stage for boost booting speed.
York
As we discussed earlier too, dcache was not enabled in SPL for our layerscape platforms. I have just removed redundant dcache specific code from SPL. I do save 2KB memory by removing redundant dcache specific code.
Also we do need more space (approx.. 6KB) on OCRAM for header. As currently we are only supporting single key in header (Max Size: 4KB) for validation. But actual use-case requires SRK table (8 keys) in header (Size: 10KB).
Total Available OCRAM for SPL image and header: 88KB
Current SPL image size with GCC 5.4.1 tool-chain: 84KB Current SPL header size with GCC 5.4.1 tool-chain: 4KB
Required SPL header size with GCC 5.4.1 tool-chain: 10KB
So we need to reduce SPL image size by 6KB more.
