[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/6] SPL: Port SPL framework to powerpc

[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/6] SPL: Port SPL framework to powerpc

[Stefan Roese]

This patchset ports the SPL framework to powerpc. Its based on the
SPL generalization lately done by Tom Rini. The patches can be applied
on top of his 3rd version located here:

http://github.com/trini/u-boot WIP/spl-improvements

Additionally, a new MPC5200 board port is included, the a3m071 board
port. This board port uses this SPL framework mainly to speed up
booting into the OS (Linux of course). Detection of Linux vs. U-Boot
booting is done here by checking the environment variable "boot_os".
If "boot_os" is set to "yes", then the OS (Linux) is booted. Otherwise
the "real" U-Boot is booted. For this env checking in the SPL, a small
restructuring of the env code has been done.

Comments welcome!

Thanks,
Stefan

[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/6] SPL: Add NOR flash booting support

[Stefan Roese]

SPL NOR flash booting support is quite simple. Only copying of the
images is needed.

On MPC5xxx we need to make sure to only use the standard memcpy()
implementation and not the MPC5xxx specific one. As the MPC5xxx
version has some complexity which is not needed for this SPL
booting.

I assume there's good reason to use SPL on NOR here?  Is a near-future
goal to do SPL-boots-Linux and thus the desire for a very small loader?
 Thanks!

Yes. As explained in the cover-letter, the board port using this SPL NOR
support (MPC5200 based) mainly uses this SPL framework to speed up
booting into Linux. Less code loaded from NOR, zero relocation (on this
PPC port at least), etc.

My first quick tests show a boot to Linux speedup by approx. 0.5 seconds
compared to the good-old U-Boot -> Linux booting. So it definitely makes
sense in time-critical bootup situation.

Thanks,
Stefan

[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/6] powerpc: Extract EPAPR_MAGIC constants into processor.h

[Stefan Roese]

By extracting these defines into a header, they can be re-used by other
C sources as well. This will be done by the SPL framework OS boot
support.

So you handle cleaning up the BSS differently, interesting.  I'm going
to see if that would work for ARM too..

This isn't an ARM-ism but is instead because spl_nor.c isn't offsetting
where the header is like mmc/nand/ymodem do, yes?  Would it be possible
to make spl_nor.c behave like the others?  One of the reasons I ask is
I'm looking at a NOR chip on my desk...

I was wondering about this line as well. Please explain: Why can't ARM
just use header->ih_load as load_addr?

Off the top of my head, I believe what goes on is that we read things
into SDRAM such that the header is taken into account and we don't need
to relocate the payload (U-Boot or Linux).

Hmmm. So for example, when ih_load is set to 0x100000, then you load the
image to (0x100000 - 0x40) = 0xfffc0? Is this correct?

This can't work for powerpc. As here for Linux both load-address and
entry-point are set to 0. So when loading the image (e.g. from NOR flash)
can't copy the image header in front of the image.

Another thing I'm wondering about: Why is only ih_load from the mkimage
header used and not ih_ep (entry-point)?

I suggest that we switch to copying the "real" image (payload) to the load
address, skipping the header. Then "ih_load" and "ih_ep" can be used
without modification.

BTW: There also seems to be a bug in some of the SPL loaders:

For example in drivers/mtd/nand/nand_spl_load.c:

		...
		if (header->ih_os == IH_OS_LINUX) {
			/* happy - was a linux */
			nand_spl_load_image(CONFIG_SYS_NAND_SPL_KERNEL_OFFS,
				spl_image.size, (void *)spl_image.load_addr);

The problem here is that the last 64 bytes of the image are not
copied to SDRAM. Since the header is copied which is not included
in the spl_image.size variable. With my idea of only copying
the payload (skipping the header) this would be:

			nand_spl_load_image(CONFIG_SYS_NAND_SPL_KERNEL_OFFS +
				sizeof(struct image_header),
				spl_image.size, (void *)spl_image.load_addr);

What do you think? Should we switch to this way of loading images?
Seems more logical to me. And we don't run into problems where the
load address is 0.

Thanks,
Stefan

Yes, that should be the way to go ... @Simon: Do you see here some
reason for not switching to copy the real payload?

Okay. I just noticed that it's not a bug. spl_image.size is set to
header->ih_size + header_size. So 64 is added and the complete payload
is copied.

I still would like to move to my suggestion to not copy the header and
use the mkimage header values ih_load and ih_ep directly. Right now I
don't see any showstopper for doing it this way. I'll send a patch to
change this shortly (if everything works out).

Stay tuned...

Thanks,
Stefan

Hmmm. As it seems some SPL loading drivers (block like mmc, streaming
like ymodem) are not that easily converted to skipping the header. So
I'm not so sure if we should go this way after all...

Comments?

I did similar work for my upcoming Lantiq MIPS SoC port. In my
approach I also support compressed u-boot
images as payload (LZO, LZMA). The u-boot image is merged with SPL
image without any padding or
fixed flash offsets to achieve a maximum reduction of flash footprint.

I ended up with doing something like this:

static int spl_parse_image(const image_header_t *hdr, struct spl_image *spl)
{
       u32 magic;

       magic = image_get_magic(hdr);
       if (magic != IH_MAGIC)
               return -1;

       spl->data_addr += image_get_header_size();
       spl->entry_addr = image_get_load(hdr);
       spl->size = image_get_data_size(hdr);
       spl->comp = image_get_comp(hdr);

       if (spl->comp == IH_COMP_NONE)
               spl->load_addr = spl->entry_addr;
       else
               spl->load_addr = CONFIG_LOADADDR;

       return 0;
}

spl->data_addr points to the image header of the payload and is
initialized by the caller
dependent on the used load mechanism. If the payload is uncompressed
it can be directly copied to
its final RAM location. A compressed payload needs an intermediate
copy step if it is stored in SPI or NAND flash.
I chose CONFIG_LOADADDR. After this the decompression function
extracts the image to its final RAM location.

I think we should keep an architecture-neutral SPL image context
inside the generic SPL framework.
The content of this context should be filled by architecture/SoC/board
specific code.

Yes, I thought about adding this as well. Nice.

Interesting. I'm still padding to the fixed offset. Let me look into
squeezing those two images together as well...

So you introduced a new "struct spl_image" and did not use "struct
spl_image_info" from the SPL framework? Why is that? We should
definitely consolidate to one structure here.

Good idea. Looks like your spl_parse_image might be a potential
replacement for spl_parse_image_header() from this common SPL framework.

Sounds good. Do you have some patches that you could send for review?
Did you try to keep as much platform/arch independent as possible?

Ack. It would be great to review your code here. Please keep us informed.

I implemented this after the initial SPL infrastructure got merged
into mainline one year ago.
At this time a generic SPL framework did not exist ;)

Not yet. I had not time yet to adopt my work to the new common SPL framework.

My current SPL solution is queued here:

Actually this was my response to your original question.

So I suggest to not remove the 'struct spl_image_info'.

Looks good. One question though: How do you make sure, that your SPL
image length is 4-byte aligned?

I have 4-byte alignments for each section and for each address symbol
in my linker script.
Actually all MIPS linker scripts do this.

Yes. I have those section alignments in the linker script as well. The
problem is the end of the last (physical end in flash) section. If I
have here a string with length 7 for example, the SPL binary has a
non-4-byte aligned length.

Any ideas on this?

Stefan

MIPS linker scripts have a symbol in front of the BSS section that is
named uboot_end_data.
I think most ARM linker scripts have it too but it is named __image_copy_end.
This symbol is 4-byte-aligned. If I want to know the length of SPL
image i can simply do

ulong len = (ulong) &__image_copy_end - CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE

and len is 4-byte-aligned

Maybe I'm missing something, but maybe we just need to mimic the
behavior full U-Boot does and if we haven't been loaded where we need to
execute, shift bits around?

Of course its possible. The main problem is speed here. With the
"problematic" drivers like mmc, you would need to copy the image a 2nd
time, once from MMC to a temp. SDRAM location, and then to its final
(load_addr) destination. With the current approach, the image is only
copied once from MMC to SDRAM. The 2nd copy shouldn't take that long
though. Its SDRAM to SDRAM after all.

I really do like Daniel's approach, with the decompression support:

http://dev.phrozen.org/gitweb/?p=uboot-upstream.git;a=commitdiff;h=39165fa145b2d959f1eaa6faa3ab3053823bb985

We should try to merge this into the current SPL framework. I'll try to
look into this next week.

So, here's what I don't understand.  On ARM, in general, we can't rely
on the global data pointer register (r8) to be set to a useful value, so
we do the above to ensure it points to something useful.  Are you always
able to rely on r2 it looks like pointing to something useful?  Or do
you take care of this much earlier on in powerpc?  Thanks!

You are correct, I missed something here. r2 was still configured to the
value written to it from the "real" U-Boot (pointing to internal SRAM).

I can't use the code in preloader_console_init() though to setup the gd
pointer. As I need to write some values in gd *before* calling
preloader_console_init() (mainly clocks for serial driver). And since
this "gd stuff" is quite platform specific, we should probably move this
into an platform/arch spl file instead. As you also mentioned in another
reply to create an arch/${ARCH}/lib/spl.c file.

What do you think? Can you move this gd init stuff into such a common
ARM spl file in the next patchset version?

Thanks,
Stefan

Yes.  We should probably say it's the job of board_init_f.  I know full
U-Boot does it at the start of board_init_r but I think for SPL it makes
sense to document that board_init_f does any early init it needs to,
clears BSS, sets up gd and calls board_init_r.

Full ack. In my next patchset version, I already extracted this gd setup

Great. I'll rebase my patches on top of that next week then.

This, along with board_init_f make me wonder if we shouldn't have an
arch/${ARCH}/lib/spl.c that contains them and make them non-static.
Perhaps sharing with the non-SPL code portion as well?

Yes. Makes definitely sense. Please see my comments in the other mail.

[U-Boot] [PATCH 4/6] env: Extract getenv_f() into separate source file

[Stefan Roese]

By extracting getenv_f and envmatch() from cmd_nvedit.c into a
separate file, getenv_f() can be included easily into the SPL
binary. With this, SPL boards can now use getenv_f() to read
environment variables (e.g. to detect if the OS or U-Boot shall
be executed).

In the approach this is done for env stored in NOR flash, as this
will be used by an upcoming MPC5200 board port.
