I am currently working on the adm5120 target under Linux and this board is available with at least 4 bootloaders, including U-boot.
4 different boot loaderss on one board? What a waste of effort...
We manage getting runtime bootloader detection working using the fw_arg0-3 values for CFE, RouterBoot, Bootbase. Now I would like to do so for U-boot and I could not find any informations if U-boot fills the fw_arg0-3 with some specific values that could let us identify it at runtime. Can you indicate me if such identification is possible ? If not, would another method (like reading the first flash block) work ?
You may want to check "lib_mips/mips_linux.c" to see which arguments get passed to a Linux kernel by U-Boot. Search for "theKernel()" call.
