Hi All,
There are 3 topics which I would like to cover in this mail:
- Switching over to upstream u-boot for the linux-sunxi project
- How to build upstream u-boot for use with linux-sunxi sunxi-3.4 kernels
- Adding more boards to upstream u-boot
- Switching over to upstream u-boot for the linux-sunxi project
================================================================
Upstream u-boot has had sunxi support for a while now, and has slowly been gaining a lot of features over the linux-sunxi/u-boot-sunxi version at: https://github.com/linux-sunxi/u-boot-sunxi/
Some of the new features supported upstream are booting from usb, booting from sata (ahci) and full sun6i (A31) support including SPL support. Also upstream u-boot supports using hdmi out + an usb keyboard as u-boot console, so that one does not need to solder a serial console to things like hdmi tv-dongles.
Upstream u-boot also has full sun8i (A23) support in the pipeline including SPL support.
Since we have sun8i memory support is there corresponding meminfo which can dump the timing?
Thanks
Michal
