Subject: [PATCH 3/3 v2] board: axy17lte: get board usable - add bootcmd and docs
Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2022 13:40:18 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220130104018.25511-4-dsankouski@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220130104018.25511-1-dsankouski@gmail.com>
U-boot is intended to replace linux kernel in android boot image(ABL), and
it's FIT payload to replace initramfs file. The boot process is similar to
boot image with linux:
- android bootloader (ABL) unpacks android boot image
- ABL sets `linux,initrd-start property` in chosen node in unpacked FDT
- ABL sets x0 register to FDT address, and passes control to u-boot
- u-boot reads x0 register, and stores it in `prevbl_fdt_addr` env variable
- u-boot reads `linux,initrd-start` property,
and stores it in `prevbl_initrd_start_addr`
In this way, u-boot bootcmd relies on `prevbl_initrd_start_addr` env
variable, and boils down to `bootm $prevbl_initrd_start_addr`.
If more control on boot process is desired, pack a boot script in
FIT image, and put it to default configuration
What done:
- Rearrange defconfig option order
- Add CONFIG_SAVE_PREV_BL_* options
- Doc updates:
- remove wrong SBOOT memory corruption note, because
memory is changed during u-boot bringup process,
not by SBOOT
- put payload on ramdisk place in abl boot image
creation step

Changes for v2:
- increase CONFIG_LMB_MAX_REGIONS and CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN
- change signed off line
- add CONFIG_SAVE_PREV_BL_FDT_ADDR. It's needed to boot
android
- change bootcmd to source bootscript from FIT image
for more flexibility
