Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH] distro: load FDT from any partition on boot device
Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2017 16:16:34 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171004201638.4591-1-robdclark@gmail.com> (raw)
In the EFI_LOADER boot path, we were only checking the FAT partition
containing the EFI payload for dtb files. But this is somewhat of a
fiction. In reality there will be one small (V)FAT partition containing
grub (or whatever the payload may be), and a second boot partition
containing kernel/initrd/fdt (typically ext4). It is this second
partition where we should be looking for a FDT to load.
So instead scan all the partitions of the disk containing the EFI
payload. This matches where grub looks for kernel/initrd (barring
custom grub.cfg, in which case the user can use grub's 'devicetree'
command to load the correct FDT).
The other option is somehow passing the ${fdtfile} to grub so that it
can load the FDT based on selected kernel version location (which grub
knows) and SoC/board specific ${fdtfile} (which grub does not know).
