tree for its configuration.

This need further work on the ppc4xx platforms to get it booting from 
flash. As now the dtb is appended to the "normal" U-Boot image. And this 
image is fine-tuned to fit into currently 512KiB. With the last word 
(reset vector of the ppc4xx) located at 0x.fffc. So we need to 
include this dtb into the image this way:


0xfff8. U-Boot code / text etc
...
dtb
0x.fffc reset vector

Looking for the current options shows that perhaps CONFIG_OF_EMBED seems 
to be exactly what we are need. I'll got it working on Canyonlands after 
a bit of debugging. I'll post the necessary small patches soon...


Thanks,
Stefan

Sounds good, thanks!

It almost feels like you should have a mkimage image for this, to
create a 512KB blob from u-boot.bin and u-boot.dtb. There must be
linker magic to make this all hold together. But yes the embed option
will build it in, so avoiding that.

Simon

We need do the same for Freescale BookE powerpc series too.

Or maybe we can extend x86 solution (like ifdtool) to non-x86
architectures like BookE powerpc?
