[U-Boot] Help with spl: zImage support in Falcon mode
Hi all,
According to commit log:
commit 431889d6ad9a39846636716478d504aa7ff976fc Author: Ladislav Michl ladis@linux-mips.org Date: Tue Jul 12 20:28:14 2016 +0200
spl: zImage support in Falcon mode
Other payload than uImage is currently considered to be raw U-Boot image. Check also for zImage in Falcon mode.

I was trying to apply Falcon mode on i.MX6 Sabre SD using zImage instead of uImage. After the steps below I got an error trying to "spl export":
# dhcp ${fdt_addr} imx6q-sabresd.dtb
# dhcp ${loadaddr} zImage
# mmc write ${loadaddr} 0x1000 0x4000
# setenv bootargs 'console=ttymxc0,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait quiet rw'
# spl export fdt ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr}

Where did you get those numbers above?

Does it work with uImage? Also patch you pointed at above has nothing to do with u-boot itself, but SPL which does not seem to get involved.

I got these informations from Gateworks tutorial on section: 4.2. Falcon Mode on micro-SD card.
http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=blob;f=board/gateworks/gw_ventana/README;...

Yes, all these commands works fine with uImage. I understood now. But, how do I do to use zImage instead of uImage? Is there any document that I can learn the steps?

I've never used spl export as I have fdt prepared during build time. Looking at source, zImage support is not implemented.

See common/bootm.c:boot_get_kernel. You'll need a bit of hacking to support zImage.

Looking at cmd/spl.c the spl_export() function calls call_bootm(), which can only handle bootm/uImage kernel images currently.
