* arm: mvebu: Add runtime detection of UART (xmodem) boot-modeStefan Roese2016-01-14-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds runtime detection of the Marvell UART boot-mode (xmodem protocol). If this boot-mode is detected, SPL will return to the BootROM to continue the UART booting. With this patch its now possible, to generate a U-Boot image that can be booted either from the strapped boot-device (e.g. SPI NOR, MMC, etc) or via the xmodem protocol from the UART. In the UART case, the kwboot tool will dynamically insert the UART boot-device type into the image. And also patch the load address in the header, so that the mkimage header will be skipped (as its not expected by the Marvell BootROM). This simplifies the development for Armada XP / 38x based boards. As no special images need to be generated by selecting the MVEBU_BOOTROM_UARTBOOT Kconfig option. Since the Kconfig option MVEBU_BOOTROM_UARTBOOT is not needed any more, its now completely removed.

* tools: kwboot: Add support for UART boot mode patching for Armada XP/38xStefan Roese2015-10-01-10/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, kwboot only allows dynamic UART boot mode patching for SoCs with header version 0 (Orion, Kirkwood). This patch now enables this "-p" feature also for SoCs with header version 1 (Armada XP / 38x etc). With this its possible now to use the UART boot mode without on images that are generated for other boot devices, like SPI. So no need to change BOOT_FROM to "uart" for UART xmodem booting any more.

* tools/kwboot: Add parameters to set delay and timeout via cmdlineStefan Roese2015-06-14-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To support the Armada 38x, new values for the request-delay and the response-timeout are needed. As the values already implemented in this tool (for Kirkwood and Armada XP) don't seem to work here. To make this more flexible, lets add make those 2 parameters configurable via the cmdline. Here the new parameters: -q <req-delay>: use specific request-delay -s <resp-timeo>: use specific response-timeout For the Marvell DB-88F6820 these values are known to work: One board: -q 2 -s 1 2nd board: -q 5 -s 5 So this seems to be even board specific. But with this patch now those values can be specified and tested via the cmdline.

* tools/kwboot: Sync with latest barebox version to support Armada XPStefan Roese2014-10-23-14/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The barebox version of the kwboot tool has evolved a bit. To support Armada XP and Dove. Additionally a few minor fixes have been applied. So lets sync with the latest barebox version. Please note that the main difference between both versions now is, that the U-Boot version still supports the -p option, to dynamically patch an image for UART boot mode. I didn't test it now though.
