Great, many thanks for this information.
On the other hand, according to my basic understanding (Please correct me
if I am wrong), U-boot can pass through the bootargs env variable
information about available memory in the platform. For instance, bootargs
mem=512M at 0xA0000000 .. instructs the kernel that the available memory is 512
MB starting @ 0xA0000000, in such case the rest of the platform memory is
not even visible to the kernel and its MMU. Is this conclusion true?
Thank you very much.
