* ENGR00174536-1 booti: add booti command support.Zhang Jiejing2012-02-27-0/+107
Support booti command which can boot from a boot.img boot.img is a zImage + ramdisk.img + bootargs + boot addr which include these info can be used to avoid mis match between kernel and ramdisk, also can avoid commit to chagne default bootargs. For example: > booti mmc1 command will read the boot.img from 1M offset, and then parser the bootargs and ramdisk then do the boot from that zImage. > booti mmc1 recovery will going to read the recovery's partition no and offset and boot from recovery image. this recovery image also a zImage + ramdisk bootargs: if uboot have define a env var 'bootargs', booti command will use this bootargs as kernel cmdline if you want use boot.img 's bootargs, just type: > setenv bootargs in uboot to clear the bootargs in uboot env. our default uboot env will be NULL in config file. also, android use boot.img to support OTA.
