Yes, and that's a better design, notably because it removes the documented precondition of `GenericBootloader::run` that the caller must program the FBIF aperture, which I found a bit cumbersome. However, the second user of the generic bootloader (the r000 load handler) needs to specify a different `FalconFbifTarget`, so we need to make this another parameter of `GenericBootloader::run`. Not a big deal though. What is a bit more of a big deal is that the r000 handler also uses a new function taking a closure to program the aperture temporarily and restore its original configuration afterwards, which is a better way than what the current code is doing. So I'll bring that part from the later patches into this series so it can use the final shape from the get-go (with the beneficial side-effect that we will also merge more r000 code earlier). So thanks for this very insightful suggestion. > > Modulo answer to above question, > > Reviewed-by: Eliot Courtney The patch has changed quite a bit so not taking this tag for now.
