This series adds support for running U-Boot in snagboot mode on

You didn't respond to my reply on v2 of this series.
Snagboot is an open-source, scriptable flashing framework that provides
an alternative to the proprietary Firehose protocol for device
provisioning. Like the traditional EDL+Firehose flow, Snagboot uses the
Qualcomm boot ROM recovery mode (EDL) and Sahara protocol to download
and execute bootloaders. However, instead of using the proprietary
Firehose programmer, Snagboot loads U-Boot into DDR and uses the
standard fastboot protocol for device flashing.
Glad to have some more info here. Please also add a doc page with this
information as well as a list of supported platforms.

I suppose they are talking about this snagboot: https://github.com/
bootlin/snagboot

But what's confusing me is there is no mention of any Qualcomm board,
nor any PR to add support for it. Is that in some downstream tree
somewhere? (to be clear I'm just someone interested in understanding
this better, snagboot is a very cool project that already supports
plenty of SoCs and it's great if it has or will have qcom support)
ah yep, there's a fork here
https://github.com/qualcomm-linux/snagboot/tree/qcom-next

Balaji: it would be great if you would include context like this in the
cover letter.

Yes, the mentioned repo is where we are doing changes to bring Qualcomm (for Lemans EVK) support to Snagboot.

Sure, will include these details in the cover letter and also address other feedback comments in v4 respin, which I will send shortly.

Regards,

Balaji


Kind regards,

Best regards,
Ferass
