hi tom, hi albert, yes, it's right. the u-boot could be more uniformly and maintainable if merging armv8 to arm architecture. I will try to migrate arm64 to armv8 subarchitecture of arm. do you have any other advice?
Why? The architectures are vastly different, arm64 (aarch64) being only loosely inspired by the 32-bit arm. It is not like with x86/amd64 where a lot of code can be shared.
