[linux-sunxi] [RFC PATCH 1/3] sunxi: Extend SPL header versioning

On Allwinner SoCs we use some free bytes at the beginning of the SPL image to store various information. We have a version byte to allow updates, but changing this always requires all tools to be updated as well. Introduce the concept of semantic versioning [1] to the SPL header: The major part

[linux-sunxi] [RFC PATCH 3/3] sunxi: store DRAM size in SPL header

At the moment we rely on the infamous get_ram_size() function to learn the actual DRAM size in U-Boot proper. This function has two issues: 1) It only works if the DRAM size is a power of two. We start to see boards which have 3GB of (usable) DRAM, so this does not fit anymore. 2) As U-Boot has no

[linux-sunxi] [RFC PATCH 2/3] sunxi: board.c: refactor SPL header checks

So far we have two users which want to look at the SPL header. We will get more in the future. Refactor the existing SPL header checks into a common function, to simplify reusing the code. Now that this is easy, add proper version checks to the DT name parsing. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara

[linux-sunxi] [RFC PATCH 0/3] sunxi: extend SPL header to propagate DRAM size

This series tries to solve three issues we currently have on Allwinner boards: - The DRAM sizing routine can only cope with power-of-two sized DRAM. - The DRAM sizing routine steps through all DRAM, possibly hitting secure memory. - The SPL header versioning is quite strict and tends to break

[linux-sunxi] [sunxi-tools RFC PATCH] FEL: introduce semantic versioning for SPL header

Every addition of a new feature to the SPL header currently requires us to update the FEL tool, to teach it about the new supported maximum value. Many times the FEL tool doesn't really care, but complains anyway - and refuses to load. Let's introduce semantic versioning [1] for this field, where
