Subject: [PATCH 4/4] doc: README.socfpga: Add official boot flow support info
Date: Sun, 13 Nov 2022 21:55:36 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221113135536.9920-4-jit.loon.lim@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221113135536.9920-1-jit.loon.lim@intel.com>

From: Yau Wai Gan <yau.wai.gan@intel.com>

The official boot-up flow for SoC FPGA 64-bit is with
Arm Trusted Firmware, ATF BL31. The non-ATF flow is
legacy and is not supported officially moving forward.
Update the README to include the information.

+9. Official Boot-up Flow Support
+---------------------------------------------------------------------
+	U-boot with Arm Trusted Firmware (ATF, TF-A) boot-up is the official supported
+	boot flow for Intel SoC FPGA Arm 64-bit architecture devices including
+	Stratix 10, Agilex and N5X. ATF is the secure runtime firmware running at EL3
+	which handles secure accesses from U-boot proper and Linux running at EL2 and EL1.
+
+	Official boot flow:
+		U-boot -> ATF BL31 -> U-boot proper -> Linux
+
+	Legacy (aka non ATF) boot flow:
+		U-boot -> U-boot proper -> Linux
+
+	U-boot version socfpga_v2021.07 and onwards change the defconfig name to match
+	the official boot flow. The non ATF flow defconfigs are renamed with _legacy_
+	appended and is not officially supported moving forward. See details as follow.
+
+	Legacy boot flow:
+		socfpga_agilex_defconfig    -> socfpga_agilex_legacy_defconfig
+		socfpga_n5x_defconfig       -> socfpga_n5x_legacy_defconfig
+		socfpga_stratix10_defconfig -> socfpga_stratix10_legacy_defconfig
+
+	Official boot flow:
+		socfpga_agilex_atf_defconfig    -> socfpga_agilex_defconfig
+		socfpga_n5x_atf_defconfig       -> socfpga_n5x_defconfig
+		socfpga_stratix10_atf_defconfig -> socfpga_stratix10_defconfig
