These patches update the boot and os partition numbers in the default uboot environment for a number of socfpga boards. Per request, common environment configurations have been moved to a shared header.
OK, waiting for Acks from Dinh, just to be sure.
btw a nit, please fill the $subject of cover letter next time.
I was just informed of an issue with moving the fat/boot partition to p2. Windows no longer mounts the fat partition. I'm not sure who or why CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION was changed to 2 but i think in order to allow windows to mount the fat partition it will need to be the first partition. So i am going to change CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_FS_BOOT_PARTITION back to 1, and change the default env variables appropriately.
You mean the layout is now: - p1 0x83 - p2 0xa2 - ...
I think this is really flaky, but I heard somewhere on the list that it is possible to write the u-boot-spl-with-dtb.sfp (without having actual 0xa2 partition) to offset 64 kiB and the machine will still boot. I am starting to consider using this approach as it will also allow distro bootcmd to work and distros to integrate altera boards.
