My goal when I started on this project a year ago was to get to linux

Contrast that to the two minutes it took the STLinux demo to come up.
It was obvious that the accepted way of running an FSBL, then SSBL was
going to blow the time budget. There really wasn't a good solution,
and traditional falcon mode with "spl export" command was not secure.
I chose to use SPL with a FIT payload. We have to add certain logic to
SPL, as well as some FDT modifications that would be normally done in
u-boot. The boot flow is
SPL -> OP-TEE -> Linux
One of the major complaints of v1 was that we shouldn't be patching
the devicetree with optee nodes in SPL. Instead, we should let OP-TEE
add the required nodes. I tried it, found a huge boot time penalty,
and decided against it.
Another issue from v1 that I was unable to address is the MAC address.
It was suggested to use the "nvmem-cells" FDT property to tell linux
where in the OTP to read the MAC. Because of the way the linux BSEC
driver is written, this would only work with TF-A, but fails with SPL.
There is also the issue of how to make the optee/ library available to
SPL. Patrick has a couple of patches up regarding the issue, so I have
not touched it in this series.
Changes since v1:
- Move SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR to Kconfig instead of stm32mp1.h
- Create a new defconfig for STM32MP in falcon mode
- Rework board_fit_config_name_match() per Patrick's suggestions
- Use "u-boot,falcon-gpios" instead of "st,fastboot-gpios"
- Only update shadow registers in SPL for BSEC .probe()
Alexandru Gagniuc (11):
spl: Move SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR to Kconfig
=> OK
stm32mp1: Add support for baudrates higher than 115200
=> OK
stm32mp1: Add support for falcon mode boot from SD card
=> some remarks
board: stm32mp1: Implement board_fit_config_name_match() for SPL
=> OK
For the next commit of the serie....
I am not a specialist of falcon mode but I think all the next commit
should be removed if the falcon mode is correctly managed
see the command "spl export" in doc/README.falcon
arch/arm/cpu/armv8/fsl-layerscape/doc/README.falcon:19:
=> the fixup is done one time and saved in U-Boot proper (first boot ?)
before to activate the Falcon mode
see also CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR usage in ls1043a
and in :
void board_init_r(gd_t *dummy1, ulong dummy2)
{
....
case IH_OS_LINUX:
debug("Jumping to Linux\n");
#ifdefined(CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR)
spl_fixup_fdt((void*)CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR);
#endif
=>jump_to_image_linux use the address spl_image->arg =
CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR
For me U-boot must saved the device tree get from FIT with the needed
fixup in
CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR ..
CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS
=> loaded by SPL in CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR in mmc_load_image_raw_os()
and this FDT is used to start Linux in falscon mode with
spl_image.arg (at least when OP-TEE is not present)
I am working of suport on all my working branch (WIP)
