Many arm926ejs-based SoCs boot at 0xffff0000. Currently these last 64 KB of flash are wasted just for a jump to the location where u-boot was flashed. This commit provides split relocation where the first part of u-boot is stored from the reset address to the end of the flash, and the second part is stored below the first one. This allows booting directly into _start at 0xffff0000, thus fully using the last flash sector. For the ED Mini V2, this frees 12.5% of the flash for other uses.
Signed-off-by: Albert Aribaud <[email protected]> --- As indicated in the subject line, this patch is *not* a bugfix and thus *not* expected to be integrated into 2010.09. It was heavily tested on an ED Mini V2 and a 5Big Network. All the following cases were debugged step by step through JTAG: - boot from RAM (with relocation, without low level init) - boot from linear image in FLASH (with reloc & ll init) - boot from split image in FLASH (with reloc & ll init) 'checkpatch.pl --no-tree' reported 0 errors and warnings. arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.S | 81 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ 1 files changed, 68 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.S b/arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.S index cf40ce1..9a0a9ef 100644 --- a/arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.S +++ b/arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/start.S @@ -5,8 +5,8 @@ * * ----- Adapted for OMAP1610 OMAP730 from ARM925t code ------ * - * Copyright (c) 2001 Marius Gröger <[email protected]> - * Copyright (c) 2002 Alex Züpke <[email protected]> + * Copyright (c) 2001 Marius Gröger <[email protected]> + * Copyright (c) 2002 Alex Züpke <[email protected]> * Copyright (c) 2002 Gary Jennejohn <[email protected]> * Copyright (c) 2003 Richard Woodruff <[email protected]> * Copyright (c) 2003 Kshitij <[email protected]> @@ -166,21 +166,74 @@ reset: bl cpu_init_crit #endif +/* + * This code copies SIZE bytes of u-boot from 'source' _start (in FLASH) + * to 'destination' _TEXT_BASE (in RAM) RAM.
