Some documentation is in README (SPL framework) and doc/README.SPL, example code is in mainline (see i.e. twister board). For slides see [1]. Links to the videos mentioned in the slides can be found here [2].
Thanks, Anatolij

I suspect we might need to make this mode more visible, propagate it more. And also make the documentation more accessible, that's actually what the people at ELCE were complaining about.
Thanks, Anatolij

The piece I am missing is how to use u-boot to prepare the saved boot information used when loading the kernel directly from SPL.
How to make the SPL framework load a kernel image is quite obvious. But not how to have the right parameters sent to the kernel.

You can find the slides of the presentation at the last RMLL in Geneva here:
http://schedule2012.rmll.info/IMG/pdf/LSM2012_UbootFalconMode_Babic.pdf
As example code, you can look at the twister board in mainline. I see that also the devkit8000 support it.

Guys ... this is not _the_ _problem_ ... :-C
The people at ELCE were really excited by this Falcon mode, it's really the next big thing in U-Boot.
But the people were severely disappointed that there is no concise documentation for it. So I'm asking you guys who do understand it, can you put together some good howto so we can properly advertise this feature? Please!
Best regards, Marek Vasut

This is right, documentation is missing. I will write down some doc and post it soon...
