Hello,
Sorry for the newbie question...
I have an Altera/Terasic board (socfpga_sockit) that has issues recognizing USB storage devices (roughly 60% good / 40% bad):
If I try a later release (e.g. v2016.01 which seems to support the Terasic board explicitly) the boot process stops just after loading the SPL.
At this point I have only been changing the u-boot.img component, not the SPL (in the a2 partition of the MMC).
The documentation from Altera about generating the SPL seems to require using Qsys/Quartus tools which I'd really like to avoid.
I can produce u-boot-spl.bin / u-boot.img from make socfpga_sockit_defconfig; make all.
My newbie question ... should be I able to use directly the u-boot-spl.bin generated by the build to replace the SPL on the board?
I've just gone thru the process (this week) of getting uboot 2016.01 to boot on our custom socfpga board. There where a few issues in getting things going. If your using the sd card to boot then the current memory layout is not per the altera documentation. I had to make the changes below to config to match the altera docs. Otherwise it hangs just after the SPL. You also need to use the -dtb image versions with 2016.01 for things to work. Again you may need to make sure the uboot device trees match your hardware. Not all uboot drivers appear to be using the DT as yet.
Note the SPL is tightly coupled to the board design and potentially the FPGA image. If you using bridges or routing HPS resources (eg i2c etc) to the fpga the SPL configures the muxes.
There's a script in uboot src at arch\arm\mach-socfpga\qts-filter.sh That will generate the qts files for you arch.
I haven't tried the USB stuff as yet. There are some issues witht eh altera USB port trigger an Over Current event on device insertation. They've modified the linux kenerl driver to use external OV current detection to get around the problem. My intial workaround was to insert USB device prior to power on. I haven't looked at the uboot USB driver yet to see what's in there.

Thanks, Phil!
Sorry for the delayed response - got called away, but am back to this now. I patched socfpga_common.h and re-built the project. I picked up spl/u-boot-spl-dtb.sfp and u-boot-dtb.img and transferred them to the SD card with:
dd if=u-boot-spl-dtb.sfp of=/dev/sdf3 bs=64k seek=0 dd if=u-boot-dtb.img of=/dev/sdf3 bs=64k seek=4
You can just do a 'make u-boot-with-spl.sfp' and burn the u-boot-with-spl.sfp file straight to the a2 partition, or sdf3.
Tried this with both the original DT set (socfpga.dtsi, socfpga_cyclone.dtsi, socfpga_cyclone5_sockit.dts) that came with the u-boot v2016.01 download and also an Altera-patched DT set that I've used to boot into Linux numerous times.
When I start up the board I get:
U-Boot SPL 2016.01 (Mar 01 2016 - 17:28:14) drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: Preparing to start memory calibration drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: CALIBRATION FAILED drivers/ddr/altera/sequencer.c: Calibration complete SDRAM calibration failed. ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###
I'm not a Quartus user, so I haven't done anything with the qts-filter.sh script you mentioned. Do I need to? I don't have any custom FPGA logic - it's just the Terasic board out of the box.
I just tested U-Boot(v2016.03-rc3) and USB is not working on the devkit or sockit. It's failing to detect my mass storage device.
Debugging...
