Sorry to disturb :(
I am trying to switch from
https://gitlab.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-mips commit
f3d8c7f8d3c02ff1de172aff7e6392a9ddd1f5b2 to master.
In both case I'm using plain "vocore2_defconfig".
Actually I'm using:
make ARCH=mips
CROSS_COMPILE=~/vocore/__V2__/Buildroot-2/mipsel-buildroot-linux-uclibc_sdk-buildroot/bin/mipsel-linux-
all
for master and Buildroot compilation environment for `u-boot-mips`, but I don't
think that's the problem (compiler is the same, if needed I'll recompile
manually "old" also).
Of course the two versions have tons of differences, but .config is essentially
the same (some reordering and a few apparently harmless new CONFIG_s; iff
deemed useful I can post both, but, as said, I'm using in-tree
vocore2_defconfig in both cases).
First thing is something changed in compilation and the old "u-boot-mtmips.bin"
si nowhere to be found, apparently replaced by "u-boot-with-spl.bin".
Second data point is new u-boot is substantially larger:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 244580 Aug 31 20:06 u-boot-mtmips.bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 275005 Aug 31 20:00 u-boot-with-spl.bin
Third and most important new version does not work:

What am I doing so wrong?
I'm available to all possible tests, but I'm, most likely, just missing
something obvious.
I'm also available on IRC as "mcon".
Thanks in advance.
