[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] Fix do_bootm_linux() so that multi-file images with FDT blob boot.

Fix the following issues in do_bootm_linux() that prevent booting the kernel from a mulit-file image (kernel + initrd + blob): - incorrect initrd address and length calculation - incorrect blob address calculation
Also, make minor updates to the U-Boot's output and to the coding style.
Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Sieka tur@semihalf.com --- Tested on two MPC5200B-based boards, one using CONFIG_OF_FLAT_TREE (still), the other using CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT. On each board the mulit-file image was booted from an address in RAM, as well as in Flash.

I thought this bug has already been fixed. Are the initrd address and length calculations broken again?

I don't know - I have tested today's U-Boot (60174746) and multi-file image booting didn't work:
## Booting image at ff180000 ... Image Name: Kernel + initial ram disk + FDT Created: 2007-08-31 12:24:07 UTC Image Type: PowerPC Linux Multi-File Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 2894640 Bytes = 2.8 MB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000 Contents: Image 0: 1351205 Bytes = 1.3 MB Image 1: 1531127 Bytes = 1.5 MB Image 2: 12288 Bytes = 12 kB Verifying Checksum ... OK Uncompressing Multi-File Image ... OK ERROR: image is not a fdt - must RESET the board to recover.
I might have missed a patch, though - could you provide a pointer to the fix that you have in mind?

Timur,
As I said - I have tested today's ToT U-Boot - which contains the above patch - and observed the problem. And more importantly, the patch is not related to booting mulit-image files, which is the scenario I am dealing with.

Fix incorrect blob address calculation in do_bootm_linux() that prevents booting the kernel from a multi-file image (kernel + initrd + blob).
Also, make minor updates to the U-Boot's output and to the coding style.
Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Sieka tur@semihalf.com --- My previous patch was wrong in "fixing" the initrd length. do_bootm_linux() expects the initial ramdisk embedded in a multi-file image to be a raw compressed initrd (like ramdisk_image.gz), and not an U-Boot image (like uRamdisk).
Tested on two MPC5200B-based boards, one using CONFIG_OF_FLAT_TREE (still), the other using CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT. On each board the multi-file image was booted from an address in RAM, as well as in Flash.

Applied, thanks.
