Re: [PATCH 4/4] ti33x, ti43x, omap-a15: switch KERNEL_IMAGETYPE to zImage by default

[Cooper Jr., Franklin]

What is the benefit of this switch?

Although outdated a lot of posts talking about uImage vs zImage seems to favor uImage due to additional functionality that it provides.

I guess this is a more generic question addressed to Tom...

Re: [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

[Cooper Jr., Franklin]

Since the uImage -> zImage change is being pushed by U-boot I am assuming this has more to do with the newer U-boot versions. Since a lot of these kernels will not work on a newer u-boot I wouldn't make this change on any <3.8 kernel recipes.

I don't understand the reason for this switch so I could be wrong.

Re: [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

[Dmytriyenko, Denys]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 9152 bytes --]

All machines set their kernel image types. The default is uImage. Only those with newer u-boot and 3.12 kernel by default change to zImage. The old ones are still uImage.

Subject: Re: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

Since the uImage -> zImage change is being pushed by U-boot I am assuming this has more to do with the newer U-boot versions. Since a lot of these kernels will not work on a newer u-boot I wouldn't make this change on any <3.8 kernel recipes.

I don't understand the reason for this switch so I could be wrong.

Re: [PATCH 4/4] ti33x, ti43x, omap-a15: switch KERNEL_IMAGETYPE to zImage by default

There are two sides to it.  On the zImage side, it's what the kernel
produces normally, without needing other tools, so it's vastly preferred
by the majority of kernel developers.  On the production side, uImages
provide useful things like a checksums and the ability to detect
overlaps.  If we enabled FIT images, we could go so far as to allow for
cryptographically signed images and configurations (what FIT calls a
kernel+fdt(+optional ramdisk)).

For community oriented things like this, zImage is best and for
production, it's up to the designer on what's important and what's not.

Re: [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

[Cooper Jr., Franklin]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 10007 bytes --]

But what happens to the 335x 3.2 kernel recipe? I am ok with the machine's setting the default KERNEL_IMAGE but to unbreak similar recipes the KERNEL_IMAGE would need to be overridden.

All machines set their kernel image types. The default is uImage. Only those with newer u-boot and 3.12 kernel by default change to zImage. The old ones are still uImage.

But it is rather specific to u-boot, not the kernel...

Subject: RE: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

But what happens to the 335x 3.2 kernel recipe? I am ok with the machine’s setting the default KERNEL_IMAGE but to unbreak similar recipes the KERNEL_IMAGE would need to be overridden.

All machines set their kernel image types. The default is uImage. Only those with newer u-boot and 3.12 kernel by default change to zImage. The old ones are still uImage.

Since the uImage -> zImage change is being pushed by U-boot I am assuming this has more to do with the newer U-boot versions. Since a lot of these kernels will not work on a newer u-boot I wouldn't make this change on any <3.8 kernel recipes.

I don't understand the reason for this switch so I could be wrong.

Re: [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

[Cooper Jr., Franklin]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 10883 bytes --]

Largely due to DT there is a forced dependency between the two that we can't avoid.

A key point is that either can still be used with new u-boots.  Tom, I think you were saying there is a way if the AMSDK wants to for it to fall back to uImage if zImage is not found.

Re: [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

Subject: Re: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

Largely due to DT there is a forced dependency between the two that we can’t avoid.

[CEM] I’m not sure this is true.  I think that older u-boot doesn’t understand zImage like new u-boot does. That is the limiting issue here.  Not that you can’t boot a 3.2 zImage or uImage with new u-boot.

But it is rather specific to u-boot, not the kernel...

Subject: RE: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it
But what happens to the 335x 3.2 kernel recipe? I am ok with the machine’s setting the default KERNEL_IMAGE but to unbreak similar recipes the KERNEL_IMAGE would need to be overridden.

All machines set their kernel image types. The default is uImage. Only those with newer u-boot and 3.12 kernel by default change to zImage. The old ones are still uImage.

Subject: Re: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it
Since the uImage -> zImage change is being pushed by U-boot I am assuming this has more to do with the newer U-boot versions. Since a lot of these kernels will not work on a newer u-boot I wouldn't make this change on any <3.8 kernel recipes.

I don't understand the reason for this switch so I could be wrong.

Re: [PATCH 4/4] ti33x, ti43x, omap-a15: switch KERNEL_IMAGETYPE to zImage by default

[Maupin, Chase]

As Franklin mentioned let's hold this one off until the change to use zImage has been pushed for am335x, or at least split this into only supporting ti43x and omap-a15 for now and do am335x later.

Subject: Re: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

Largely due to DT there is a forced dependency between the two that we can't avoid.

[CEM] I'm not sure this is true.  I think that older u-boot doesn't understand zImage like new u-boot does. That is the limiting issue here.  Not that you can't boot a 3.2 zImage or uImage with new u-boot.

[Franklin] DT is also a problem which is why http://git.ti.com/ti-u-boot/ti-u-boot/commits/ti-u-boot-2013.01.01-amsdk-05.07.00.00 was initially created. There is no way choose to use non DT boot out of the box. If that was possible then I would be fine with making the switch.

But it is rather specific to u-boot, not the kernel...

But what happens to the 335x 3.2 kernel recipe? I am ok with the machine's setting the default KERNEL_IMAGE but to unbreak similar recipes the KERNEL_IMAGE would need to be overridden.

Subject: RE: [meta-ti] [PATCH 1/4] linux*: don't force KERNEL_IMAGETYPE from recipes, let machine config set it

All machines set their kernel image types. The default is uImage. Only those with newer u-boot and 3.12 kernel by default change to zImage. The old ones are still uImage.

Since the uImage -> zImage change is being pushed by U-boot I am assuming this has more to do with the newer U-boot versions. Since a lot of these kernels will not work on a newer u-boot I wouldn't make this change on any <3.8 kernel recipes.

I don't understand the reason for this switch so I could be wrong.

Right, so we can have more complex boot logic than we do today, coming
in from uEnv.txt even if we want, rather than patching.  To have a
complex (and thus fragile) "try everything":
fallbackload=\
if load $loadaddr 0 uImage; then run mmcloados;fi \
if load $loadaddr $bootpart $bootdir/$bootfile; then ... copy/paste
mmcloados logic, but with bootz not boot; fi
uenvcmd=run fallbackload
