Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> says:
This includes various patches towards implementing the VBE abrec
bootmeth in U-Boot. It mostly focuses on introducing a relocating
SPL-loader so that VBE can run in the limited amount of SRAM available
on many devices.
Another minor new feature is support in VBE for specifying the image
phase when loading from a FIT. This allows a single FIT to include
images for several boot phases, thus simplifying image-creation.
One lingering niggle in this series is that it has a different code path
for sandbox, since it does not support the relocating jump. It should be
possible to resolve this with additional work, but I have not attempted
this so far.
For v2, I have split the first patch into 5 pieces, to make it easier to
see the code-size impact, plus added a few tweaks to reduce code size.
Again, only MMC is supported so far.
Looking ahead, series G will have some more plumbing and H some rk3399
pieces. That should be enough to complete these feature.
Here is a run in my lab, with the VBE ABrec bootmeth. You can see that
VPL runs before memory is set up. SPL sets up memory and can be upgraded
in the field reliably.

The get_timer function returns an unsigned long which may be calculated
from the ARM system counter. This counter is reset only on a cold reset.
U-boot divides this counter down to a 1000 Hz counter that will cross
the 32bit barrier after a bit more than 49 days. Assigning the value to
an unsigned int will truncate it on 64bit systems.
Passing this truncated value back to the get_timer function will return
a very large value that is certainly larger than the timeout and so will
go down the error path and besides stopping U-Boot will lead to messages
like
"SPI: QSPI is still busy after poll for 5000 ms."

For a sandbox implementation, where code size is no object, it makes sense
to use the full bootstd drivers to load images.
For real boards, running from SRAM, this adds quite a bit of overhead.
Add a way to load the next phase using just the underlying storage
driver, to reduce code size. For now, only MMC is supported.
Change the log_debug() to show the load address and size in a more
neutral way, rather than suggesting that the load has already happened.

VBE needs to load different images from a FIT depending on the xPL phase
in use. The IH_PHASE value is used to select the image to load.
Add the required logic to handle this. For compatibility with the
SPL-loader driver, fill out a struct spl_image_info with the details
needed to boot the next phase.
This is good enough for VBE-simple but ABrec will need the full set of
bootstd features. So add a USE_BOOTMETH define to control this.

Add FDT support so that this can be copied down in memory after loading
and made available to the new image.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
This is fairly easy to use. The SPL loader sets up some fields in the
spl_image_info struct and calls spl_reloc_prepare(). When SPL is ready
to do the jump it must call spl_reloc_jump() instead of jump_to_image().
Add this logic.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
When one xPL phase wants to jump to the next, the next phase must be
loaded into its required address. This means that the TEXT_BASE for the
two phases must be different and there cannot be any memory overlap
between the code used by the two phases. It also can mean that phases
need to be moved around to accommodate any size growth.
Having two xPL phases in SRAM at the same time can be tricky if SRAM
is limited, which it often is. It would be better if the second phase
could be loaded somewhere else, then decompressed into place over the
top of the first phase.
Introduce a relocating jump for xPL to support this. This selects a
suitable place to load the (typically compressed) next phase, copies
some decompression code out of the first phase, then jumps to this code
to decompress and start the next phase.
This feature makes it much easier to support Verified Boot for Embedded
(VBE) on RK3399 boards, which have 192KB of SRAM.

It is convenient to use TEXT_BASE as a place to hold the FIT header, but
this does not work in VPL, since SDRAM is not inited yet.
Allocate the memory instead. Ensure the size is aligned to the media
block-size so that it can be read in directly. Improve the
error-checking for blk_read() and add some more debugging.
Keep the existing TEXT_BASE mechanism in sandbox to avoid an
'Exec format error' when trying to run the image.

VBE is currently quite careful with function arguments because it is
used in VPL which cannot be updated after manufacture. Bugs can cause
security holes.
Unfortunately this adds to code size.
In several cases we are reading values from a devicetree which is part
of U-Boot (or at least VPL) and so known to be good. Also, in several
places, getting bad values does not matter.
So change a few checks to assert() to reduce code size.

On 32 bits platforms, timer_get_us() returns an unsigned long which
is a 32 bits. timer_get_us() wraps around every 72 minutes
(2 ^ 32 / 1000000 =~ 4295 sec =~ 72 min).
So the test "if time_after_eq64(now, cyclic->next_call)" is no more
true when cyclic->next_call becomes above 32 bits max value (4294967295).
At this point after 72 min, no more cyclic function are
executed included watchdog one.
Instead of using timer_get_us(), use get_timer_us() which returns a
uint64_t, this allows a rollover every 584942 years.

OSPI flash writing was broken on am62x SKs as the OSPI flash device has a
256k sector size but was set to 20k. This breaks OSPI flash writes because
the current implementation of the SF DFU backend requires that the DFU data
buffer size be the same as the sector erase size, and the USB DFU config
fragment (for both A53 and R5) reduced the size of the DFU data buffer,
presumably so that it can fit into SPL's much smaller heap.
Change the SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE to the erase sector size, which still fits
within the post-relocation heap size in SPL.

One problem we have today is how the BLK symbol is set and used in

symbol for "we have a block device" and also for "enable block device
library code". What this series does is move to always use "select BLK"
by block drivers (a few were and a few others had it the inverse) and
then "depends on BLK" for functionality that needs a block device
present. The end result of this series is that a number of platforms
which had disabled EFI_LOADER now don't ask for it (they have no block
device) and espresso7420 has a regression about MMC support fixed. With

That however leaves the bootmgr code, eficonfig code and then parts of

depend on BLK. While these calls can be if'd out, I'm unsure if the
