XIP could never perform better than fetching from cache except if the cache is broken. I would like XIP on/off to be an expert option in Kconfig unless we can reliably detect cache failure at runtime and decide on XIP or not from that. On the other hand, too much logic this early on is not appealing. //Peter -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
