[patch 3/3 v2] mmc, ARM: Add zboot from MMC support for SuperH Mobile ARM

Simon Horman horms at verge.net.au
Mon Dec 6 02:56:58 EST 2010


This allows a ROM-able zImage to be written to MMC and
for SuperH Mobile ARM to boot directly from the MMCIF
hardware block.

This is achieved by the MaskROM loading the first portion
of the image into MERAM and then jumping to it. This portion
contains loader code which copies the entire image to SDRAM
and jumps to it. From there the zImage boot code proceeds
as normal, uncompressing the image into its final location
and then jumping to it.

This patch depends on:
* "ARM: 6514/1: mach-shmobile: Add zboot support for SuperH Mobile ARM"
  which has been merged into the devel branch of Russell King's
  linux-2.6-arm tree.
* "mmc, sh: Move MMCIF_PROGRESS_* into sh_mmcif.h"
* "mmc, sh: Remove sh_mmcif_boot_slurp()"

v2 Addressed comments by Magnus Damm:
* Fix copyright in vrl4.c
* Fix use of #define CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM_MMCIF in mmcif-sh7372.c
* Initialise LED GPIO lines in head-ap4evb.txt instead of mmcif-sh7372.c
  as this is considered board-specific.
