If you look in MAINTAINERS you should be able to find contacts for NXP.

Hi Simon,
Thanks for the reply.
NXP people said we don't support this feature for S32K family.
I am just wondering whether I can get any help from the u-boot sources?
Regards
Ashok

I would expect you would need to add support for the board. You can see Cortex-M support for NXP i.MXRT and STM32, so far. I imagine there will be some differences, such as peripherals, memory layout, etc. If there is another bootloader or some libraries available that should provide some hints.

Hey Simon,
Thanks for the suggestions. Sure, I will try to get some more information to build u-boot for S32K family.
I will contact you back If I need more information from your side.
Cheers,
Ashok

I have ported i.MXRT10xx family to uboot while Jesse the i.MXRT11xx family and then we ported the initial support to Linux too.
I have checked the S32K family but it doesn't have a sdram bus so even if on some component u-boot can run then I don't know if you could run Linux or other OSes :-/
While S32G2/3 instead support DDR3L/LPDDR4 but they have a lot of cortex-M7 and a lot of cortex-A53. This is a completely different architecture.
S32R same as S32G.
S32Z2 and S32E2 instead are based on cortex-R52+M33 and they both support LPDDR4 memory.
It depends on your goal.
Best regards
