Hi,
I'm trying to get u-boot 2015.01 up and running on a custom board using an integrated version of Marvell's Armada-XP in a switch ASIC (the Marvell term is MSYS).
One thing I ran into after extracting the DDR initialisation from the Marvell bootloader was that the Bootrom Firmware (Marvell's pre-bootloader) reported the following
BootROM 1.34 Booting from SPI flash BootROM: Bad header at offset 00000000 BootROM: Bad header at offset 00200000 ...
After a bit of debugging I found that this was because the binary.0 for my board had a length of 0x0148ec which doesn't conform to the following requirement in the Marvell functional spec -- "The header length in bytes. The value must be aligned to 4B." While I could pad out my binary.0 it seems safer to update kwbimage.c to conform with the specification.
The original issue still exists in master but I suspect now that master is using a u-boot-spl image for the Armada-XP boards the spl image is implicitly conformant.
