+Samsung Exynos Generic Boards (for mobile devices)
+==================================================
+
+Overview
+--------
+This document describes how to build and run U-Boot for Samsung Exynos generic
+boards. Boards are expected to boot with a primary bootloader, such as S-BOOT 
or
+S-LK, which hands off control to U-Boot, disguised as an Android boot image.
+
+U-Boot is packed with multiple FDTs since it targets multiple boards. The
+appropriate FDT is selected during boot. Additionally, a DTB is also required
+for embedding in the Android boot image. The previous bootloader can apply
+useful overlays on it. Both DTBs are consulted for figuring out the memory
+layout.
+
+Installation
+------------
+Building
+^^^^^^^^
+To buiid U-Boot, run the following commands
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+       make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=.output exynos-mobile_defconfig
+       make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=.output -j$(nproc)
+
+If succcessful, the U-Boot binary will be present in ``.output/u-boot.bin``.
+
+Preparation
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+The U-Boot binary is not flashable as-is, it needs to be encapsulated in an
+Android boot image. Since it supports multiple boards, and devices have
+different requirements (thanks to the lack of standards), this step varies
+depending on your target.
+
+Exynos 7870 Boards
+""""""""""""""""""
+Create the following devicetree (named ``stub.dts``)
+
+.. code-block:: devicetree
+
+       /dts-v1/;
+
+       / {
+               compatible = "samsung,exynos7870";
+               #address-cells = <2>;
+               #size-cells = <1>;
+
+               model_info-chip = <7870>;
+               model_info-hw_rev = <0>;
+               model_info-hw_rev_end = <255>;
+
+               chosen {
+               };
+
+               memory@80000000 {
+                       device_type = "memory";
+                       reg = <0x0 0x80000000 0x0>;
+               };
+
+               memory@100000000 {
+                       device_type = "memory";
+                       reg = <0x1 0x00000000 0x0>;
+               };
+       };
+
+The chosen node and memory ranges are populated by S-BOOT.
+
+Compile it to a devicetree blob, then use ``dtbTool-exynos`` in order to pack 
it
+in the QCDT format [1]_, using the following commands:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+       dtc -I dts -O dtb -o stub.dtb stub.dts
+       dtbTool-exynos -o stub.dt.img stub.dtb
+
+Finally, use mkbootimg by osm0sis [2]_ to generate the boot image:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+       mkbootimg -o u-boot.img \
+               --kernel        .output/u-boot.bin \
+               --dt            stub.dt.img
+
+Offsets are not provided to ``mkbootimg`` as S-BOOT ignores them.
+
+Flashing
+^^^^^^^^
+If flashing for the first time, it must be done via Samsung's Download (Odin)
+mode. Heimdall can be used for flashing, like so:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+       heimdall flash --BOOT u-boot.img
+
+However, if U-Boot is already installed, you may also use its fastboot 
interface
+for flashing. Boot into the boot menu by holding the volume down key. Enable
+fastboot mode from there, connect the device to your host, then run:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+       fastboot flash boot u-boot.img
+
+To flash an OS image in internal storage, fastboot is a reliable option.
