U-boot is intended to replace linux kernel in android boot image(ABL), and it's FIT payload to replace initramfs file. The boot process is similar to boot image with linux: - android bootloader (ABL) unpacks android boot image - ABL sets `linux,initrd-start property` in chosen node in unpacked FDT - ABL sets x0 register to FDT address, and passes control to u-boot - u-boot reads x0 register, and stores it in `prevbl_fdt_addr` env variable - u-boot reads `linux,initrd-start` property, and stores it in `prevbl_initrd_start_addr` In this way, u-boot bootcmd relies on `prevbl_initrd_start_addr` env variable, and boils down to `bootm $prevbl_initrd_start_addr`. If more control on boot process is desired, pack a boot script in FIT image, and put it to default configuration What done: - strip unneeded config options - add FIT image support - add framebuffer node, u-boot logo and video console - increase LMB_MAX_REGIONS, to store all linux dtb reserved memory regions - add linux kernel image header Uart driver causes hang, when u-boot is used in android boot image instead of linux. Temporary disable console driver, until investigated and fixed. Signed-off-by: Dzmitry Sankouski <dsankouski@gmail.com> Cc: Ramon Fried <rfried.dev@gmail.com> |
