commit 179faec26027501d6ebd348db156fca32fa150f5 Author: David Hendricks dhendrix@chromium.org Date: Mon Jan 14 20:58:50 2013 -0800
armv7: Place reset vector + CBFS header + bootblock dynamically
This replaces hard-coded bootblock offsets using the new scheme. The assembler will place the initial branch instruction after BL1, skip 2 aligned chunks, and place the remaining bootblock code after.
It will also leave an anchor string, currently 0xdeadbeef which cbfstool will find. Once found, cbfstool will place the master CBFS header at the next aligned offset.
Here is how it looks:
0x0000 |--------------| | BL1 | 0x2000 |--------------| | branch | 0x2000 + align |--------------| | CBFS header | 0x2000 + align * 2 |--------------| | bootblock | |--------------|
TODO: The option for alignment passed into cbfstool has always been 64. Can we set it to 16 instead?
