Anyone know why we pass the image_header_t * to the netbsd loader?
/*
* Booting a (NetBSD) kernel image
*
* This process is pretty similar to a standalone application:
* The (first part of an multi-) image must be a stage-2
loader,
* which in turn is responsible for loading & invoking the
actual
* kernel. The only differences are the parameters being
passed:
* besides the board info strucure, the loader expects a
command
* line, the name of the console device, and (optionally) the
* address of the original image header.
*/
...
/*
* NetBSD Stage-2 Loader Parameters:
* r3: ptr to board info data
* r4: image address
* r5: console device
* r6: boot args string
*/
(*loader) (gd->bd, os_hdr, consdev, cmdline);
this is some pretty tight coupling with u-boot. Is the stage-2 loader
part of u-boot?
