Subject: [PATCH v3 0/6] imx9{4,5,52}: Add Quickboot support
Date: Thu,  2 Apr 2026 12:40:42 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1775121078.git.simona.toaca@nxp.com> (raw)

From: Simona Toaca <simona.toaca@nxp.com>

This patch series adds support for saving DDR training
data to non-volatile memory on iMX94, iMX95 and iMX952 platforms.
The purpose is running DDR Quickboot flow on next reboot.

The process is as follows:
- OEI runs Training flow for the DDRPHY
- OEI saves the data from training to volatile memory
- U-Boot can then save it to non-volatile memory (e.g. SD)
- OEI loads the data from NVM at cold reboot and runs Quickboot flow

By skipping training, a much lower boot time is achieved.

Changes for v3:
- Rebased and added support for iMX952
- Removed IMX_SNPS_DDR_PHY_QB_GEN macro, as it was not useful ->
now CMD_QB is enabled by default on the supported boards
- Removed unnecessary #ifdefs -> replaced with if (CONFIG..)
- Replaced spi_flash_probe with udevice_first_device_err to
avoid using SPI macros that needed ifdefs, since there is only
one SPI flash device available.
- Adnotated qb methods with qb_ to be easier to see in asm dump
- Removed explicit pointer casts from (void *)
- Replaced custom qb_crc32 with the U-Boot one
- Made eveything snake_case
- Enabled SFDP support for iMX943/95, as it is necessary for
proper erase size parsing (and is already present in iMX952 config)
- Improved documentation - explanation about the space in bootloader
- Added commit fixing a style issue in Kconfig

Changes for v2:
- Improved documentation to clarify the questions asked
- Detailed log messages for all commits
- Detailed Kconfig options for SPL_IMX_QB and CMD_IMX_QB
- Fixed the mentioned coding style issues
