Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] fastboot: mmc: make boot partition offset configurable
Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2026 11:36:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260217103604.71029-2-hs@nabladev.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260217103604.71029-1-hs@nabladev.com>
From: Adrian Freihofer <adrian.freihofer@siemens.com>
i.MX8QXP rev C.0 requires boot container stored at offset 0KB
for eMMC, while i.MX8QXP pre C.0 requires boot container stored
at offset 32KB for eMMC.
To use one U-Boot binary to support different chip revisions,
introduce fb_mmc_get_boot_offset() to allow override the default
offset when writing to eMMC boot partitions.
This enables support for devices with non-standard boot partition
layouts, such as those requiring an offset for correct bootloader
placement.
