From: Dalon Westergreen dalon.westergreen@intel.com
Changes in V3: - Add depends on DOS_PARTITION - Ensure that PARTTION_TYPE defaults to non-zero - Add ifdef around sys_ind in disk_partition structure Changes in V2: - Merge partition search into single partition function
Dalon Westergreen (1): SPL: add support to boot from a partition type

the socfpga bootrom supports mmc booting from either a raw image starting at 0x0, or from a partition of type 0xa2. This patch adds support for locating the boot image in the first type 0xa2 partition found.
Assigned a partition number of -1 will cause a search for a partition of type CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION_TYPE and use it to find the u-boot image

For reviewing, it makes life much easier if the change log is also present in the individual patches of a patch set. In this case - since it's only one patch - only in the patch set.
The best way to do that in git is to just write a
--
line after your Signed-Off-By line and put the change log there. When the patch then gets applied with git am later, git will drop everything below the -- line. However, during git rebase and git commit --amend, the -- line does not have any effect, so you can easily keep the change log inside the patch itself.

This means you need to explicitly define CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION to -1 for every board that wants to use this feature, right? The only caller of this function I could find is:
err = mmc_load_image_raw_partition(spl_image, mmc, CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION);
which means you're now making those two features mutually exclusive. Why not drop the whole partition == -1 check? In that case you would first search for a partition type, if that's not available fall back to a static partition number.
/* Only support MBR so DOS_ENTRY_NUMBERS */
for (partition = 1; partition <= DOS_ENTRY_NUMBERS; partition++) {
err = part_get_info(mmc_get_blk_desc(mmc), partition, &info);
if(err)
continue;
if(info.sys_ind == CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION_TYPE)
break;
}
- }
+#endif
- err = part_get_info(mmc_get_blk_desc(mmc), partition, &info); if (err) {
#ifdef CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT
below here is the fallback case when CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION is not set. Since that is not a Kconfig option you can not depend on it inside Kconfig.
Ideally, you would convert CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_U_BOOT_PARTITION to Kconfig as well so you can depend on it :). Sorry for making you dig so deeply.
The rest looks very good to me :). Thanks a lot!

If your patch set only consists of a single patch, please just drop the cover letter. Instead, send that patch stand-alone.
