Hi,

I am trying to modify the bootloader code for NVIDIA's jetson board.

So I am looking at crt0.S. It seems that two builds happen, one with
CONFIG_SPL_BUILD and one without. So you end up with two file, u-boot.bin
and spl/u-boot-spl.bin.

SPL is built with ARMv4t
U-Boot proper is built with ARMv7

That's why SPL is used on Tegra. The SPL does not actually load
U-Boot. In fact both are bundle together and loaded at the same time.
SPL simply jumps to U-Boot when needed.

There's some more background on this topic at:

In particular, see the "Tegra Boot Flow" link/document.
