I still think "pad" is a lousy name for this.  It refers to a minor
implementation detail of how the image was put together.

If you don't like the suggestions in
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-September/134191.html, how
about
"u-boot-with-spl.bin"?
I used a suggestion made by Christian Riesch and accepted by Tom Rini.
Sorry for the churn, really, but..

I'm totally cool with any name that the U-Boot core maintainers would
like to use, though I would prefer a shorter name than
"u-boot-with-spl.bin" because I'm lazy and don't like to type too many
keys when I upgrade by tftp :-) Because of that I think I would prefer
"u-boot-all.bin". So, everybody agrees with that name?
Hmmm. What does "all" mean? It's not that descriptive.

On Tegra we currently have:

u-boot-spl.bin - just SPL.
u-boot.bin - just main U-Boot, I think.
u-boot-dtb.bin - main U-Boot plus an appended DTB, I think.
u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin - SPL+U-Boot+DTB.
As this, and other examples show, there's not really good generic names.
Go with u-boot.s3c24xx as the target and output, please.  This is
consistent with the other targets and outputs where we throw something
that identifies the SoC/etc into the target/name.


I'm fine with throwing something that identifies the SoC into the u-boot image 
name.
In that case I would suggest using instead "u-boot.s3c", because, AFAIK, all Samsung's S3C SoCs that support NAND/SD boot through an internal ROM use raw images to boot and would be fine with this format. Nevertheless, before I proceed with the change, a confirmation for this from someone with a better knowledge of Samsung SoCs would be nice...
