Right so, no, we can't just rename s_init to board_init_f. This is what I was talking about in the thread about the function Hans wants to add to enable some bits in CP15 on sunxi, iirc. In short, armv7 has a different set of abstraction hooks than the previous ARM cores (armv8 followed what we have for v7) and I'm not convinced in the end that it really won us anything. See http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2015-January/202350.html For today you need to rework the Siemens code to print out the DDR values (when desired) in spl_board_init() as we do not, or will not shortly, have gd prior to board_init_f running. -- Tom
