Dear Graeme Russ,
In message AANLkTikqE0_DEqHs-tX3A4XuEXJhM0CYW_+j6izhmktw@mail.gmail.com you wrote:
Can NAND SPL initialise and size memory before loading U-Boot into RAM?
It has to. You cannot load into and run from uninitialized RAM ;-)
If so, could the relocation code be added to NAND SPL so only one copy operation is performed?
I'm afraid it cannot, due to size limitations. The NAND loader often hast to fit into as little a 2 or 4 KiB...
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
