Newer TF-A versions provide a new image loading protocol. This is

(newer?) NXP's SoCs. Normally, the bootflow is bl1 -> bl2 -> bl31 ->

directly and thus replacing bl1 and bl2 from the TF-A.

This was tested on the Kontron sl28 board using NXPs bl31 and the
upstream
version of the OP-TEE Trusted OS.

I still have some questions about this.

As I see from TFA previous image format has been removed in 2018 by

DOH! Lol, I'm using just one non-upstream part for the whole board
and of course it is doing something miserable. I wasn't aware of this.

On Xilinx ZynqMP I use SPL->bl31 loading but not using that TFA
structure because xilinx is using own format.

But I am curious if V2 was removed in 2018 who is really using previous
one and also if current implemenation is origin or also not full v2.

NXP,
https://source.codeaurora.org/external/qoriq/qoriq-components/atf/tree/plat/nxp/common/common.mk#n55


The last non-nxp commit there was from around March 2018..

And these patches are not breaking boot on zynqmp that's why not big
deal for me.

I was looking at porting TFA to upstream for this board but there is
such a huge gap. Therefore, it seemed to be easier to just use the
vendor version for now.

Please get this reviewed by people who are using current blX code.

What do you mean by blX code? Nobody is using this flow for now, i.e.
  spl -> bl31 -> u-boot
For the LOAD_IMAGE_V2 case.

NXP is using bl1 -> bl2 -> bl3 -> u-boot.

As I said this series is not breaking our flow on xilinx zynqmp soc but
maybe your code is more or less duplication of what's there now.
Or maybe if there is any NXP private way it should be handled
differently as I do for zynqmp.

The code is split into the generic v2 handling and layerscape LS1028A
specific stuff, hence the _default() function which is used in the
board files and then arch specific parameters are applied.
Also I don't know wether unifying the
  bl2_plat_get_bl31_params_default() and
  bl2_plat_get_bl31_params_v2_default()
is worth it. If that is what you mean by "more or less a duplication".
