[U-Boot] [RFC 5/5] B4860QDS: Add support of 2 stage NAND boot loader

Add support of 2 stage NAND boot loader using SPL framework. here, PBL initialise the internal SRAM and copy SPL(96K). This further initialise DDR using SPD and environment and copy u-boot(512 kb) from NAND to DDR. Finally SPL transer control to u-boot.
Initialise/create followings required for SPL framework - Add spl.c which defines board_init_f, board_init_r - update tlb and ddr accordingly
Signed-off-by: Prabhakar Kushwaha prabhakar@freescale.com --- This is a prototype done on B4860.It has 512K internal RAM. We only configured SRAM as 256K and made sure only 128KB is used throught SPL execution.

These are just some quick comments after a build test and a quick code review. The environment is latest with some patches from patchworks.

You mention you use the PBL... but probably not a pblimage. The patch correctly fixes RAMBOOT_PBL as a trigger to generate the pblimage (u- boot.pbl) but there seems to be no RCW or PBI file defined.
2) Use the new SPDX identifiers http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/261356/
This was mainlined a few revisions ago.
3) Watch out for the new boards.cfg layout
I have one question, can this scenario be implemented on a P5040? i.e. simulate that CPC is around 128Kb and load u-boot via SPL? Now all corenet processors seem to only support pblimage booting.
All the best, Rommel

Thanks Rommel for checking this patch. Please find my reply in-lined

B4860 does support PBL based NAND boot. but I have yet to integrate u-boot-spl.bin to generated u-boot-spl.pbl. This is in my TODO list

I will take care of it while providing the patch.

yes. This scenario can be implemented for P5040. Only need to create spl.c file + define constants.

This is my understanding (if need be, take it with a grain of salt)
The Makefiles need to be modified so that SPL build will create a pblimage. The "mkimage pblimage" needs to be executed only on the SPL binary. Then the top-level Makefile proceeds in concatenating the u-boot-spl.bin (now a pblimage) and u-boot.bin.

yes. This scenario can be implemented for P5040. Only need to create spl.c file + define constants.
Seems easy enough :-) though I probably don't have the resources to actually implement it.
Just a note. The pblimage booting is not very flexible now. Currently it assumes that u-boot.pbl will fit into CPC (configured as SRAM). This is OK for most processors (i.e P5040 with 1Mb CPC) but it will not work for others (i.e T1040/1042 with only 256Kb CPC). So there is a need to have SPL in this case.
All the best, Rommel

Me along with others are owner of T1040 platform. This whole exercise is done for T1040 & future soc which may have < 512K CPC. Once base patch of T1040QDS has been accepted(already in review state). I will send a patch set to add support of 2 Stage boot loader.
