+ Cyril,

Cyril had worked on adding GPH format for u-boot. Want to hear from him
why not used the u-boot-with-spl.bin build target.


Because u-boot-with-spl.bin does not wrap the spl image with a header that the rom bootloader understands.

Denys,

I understand that this recipe is  not complete as u-boot_2013.01.bb
may be shared by other machines and this change is not applicable.
Do I need to add this to some other file? Please advise.

Meanwhile for the release this should work as this is going into
mcsdk meta-ti repo. But to push this to meta-ti, the above change is
needed and hence need your input.
Murali,

I know Carlos has been working on adding SPL support to u-boot already:

http://arago-project.org/pipermail/meta-arago/2013-February/000937.html

Can you sync up with him and come up with a unified solution for both
SPL and
GPH images that works for everybody and I'd be happy to push it to
meta-ti.

Also, I'd like to hear Tom's opinion on this, as current U-Boot
maintainer -
if there is a better approach to this exists or planned in mainline.
I haven't seen the keystone patches yet, so I don't know if the GPH
image is "special" in terms of headers, but the build target
u-boot-with-spl.bin is the canonical build target for "put
u-boot-spl.bin and u-boot.bin together".
