Hi Aneesh,
I am working on the OS booting right now and have a bigger change of your code in spl.c in mind.
Hope you can say one or two words what you think about it.
THE PROBLEM For the direct OS boot and in some other situations - env image e.g., I have to load more than one image in SPL.
This can be done by hardcoding these cases and use #ifdef or ifs to switch between them. Or I can implement a general image loading with lists. (This was discussed here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/102345)
At the outset, wonder why we can not use the default bootargs string in the kernel image instead of passing it from the bootloader. For direct kernel boot from SPL, that looks like the best option for me. Then we will not need all this. Am I missing something?
best regards, Aneesh
