Use available information to determine the appropriate filename.

Tested on a v5 board without eMMC.

This should go into espressobin defconfig file. Other Armada 37xx board
do not need to have this option enabled.

Marek, is this correct way to determining V5 vs V7?

If for all ESPRESSObin board versions it is true that
    "all v7 boards are DDR4 only and all v5 boards are DDR3 only"
then yes, you can differentiate with this code.

I believe that's the case.
There may be other ways to detect the board, this was just the most
obvious one to me.

This register is set
early in boot process, by the code in TIM image, and if it was set
incorrectly, the board would not boot into U-Boot.

+       emmc = of_machine_is_compatible("globalscale,espressobin-emmc");
+
+       if (ddr4 && emmc)
+               env_set("fdtfile", 
"marvell/armada-3720-espressobin-v7-emmc.dtb");
+       else if (ddr4)
+               env_set("fdtfile", "marvell/armada-3720-espressobin-v7.dtb");
+       else if (emmc)
+               env_set("fdtfile", "marvell/armada-3720-espressobin-emmc.dtb");
+       else
+               env_set("fdtfile", "marvell/armada-3720-espressobin.dtb");

This code would overwrite user's value of fdtfile variable. And any
change done by saveenv for fdtfile would be lost. I do not think this is
correct way as it would break booting other distributions/forks (e.g.
Marvell one) which DTB file has different name.

Also user would not be able to adjust usage of its own DTB file if this
code would overwrite it at every boot.

Cannot be put value of this variable only to default set? Like all other
variables? So value would be restored/overwritten only by 'env default'
call.

There are special U-Boot variables $soc, $board, and $boardver.
In include/config_distro_bootcmd.h look at line
    "setenv efi_fdtfile ${soc}-${board}${boardver}.dtb; "
I think you should be setting $boardver env variable in your code, and
have default bootscript somehow build fdtfile name from this.

That's protected by
#if defined(CONFIG_ARM) && !defined(CONFIG_ARM64)
though, so 32bit only.

Hi,
I meant it as an inspiration, not that that line of code should be used
by your board...
Marek

Oh sorry, I misread the first time.

I see what you mean, and there're boards which do just that, and there're boards which do it like my patch.

But in the end it would just use another envvar, with the added complexity of a little scripting. At first glance, plain $fdtfile might be more straight forward? Is there another advantage of your approach I'm not seeing yet?

Thanks,
Andre
