-With this approach, we don't need the UBL any more on DaVinci boards.
-A "make boardname" will compile a u-boot.ubl, with UBL Header, which is
-needed for the RBL to find the "UBL", which actually is a UBL-compatible
-header, nand spl code and u-boot code.
-
-
-As the RBL uses another read function as the "standard" u-boot,
-we need a command, which switches between this two read/write
-functions, so we can write the UBL header and the spl
-code in a format, which the RBL can read. This is realize
-(at the moment in board specific code) in the u-boot command
-nandrbl
-
-nandrbl without arguments returns actual mode (rbl or uboot).
-with nandrbl mode (mode = "rbl" or "uboot") you can switch
-between the two NAND read/write modes.
-
-
-To set up mkimage you need a config file for mkimage, example:
-board/ait/cam_enc_4xx/ublimage.cfg
-
-For information about the configuration please see:
-doc/README.ublimage
-
-Example for the cam_enc_4xx board:
-On the cam_enc_4xx board we have a NAND flash with blocksize = 0x20000 and
-pagesize = 0x800, so the u-boot.ubl image (which you get with:
-"make cam_enc_4xx") looks like this:

-In the first "page" of the image, we have the UBL Header, needed for
-the RBL to find the spl code.
-
-The spl code starts in the second "page" of the image, with a size
-defined by:
-
-#define CONFIG_SYS_NROF_PAGES_NAND_SPL 6
-
-After the spl code, there comes the "real" u-boot code
-@ (6 + 1) * pagesize = 0x3800
-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Setting up spl code:
-
-/*
- * RBL searches from Block n (n = 1..24)
- * so we can define, how many UBL Headers
- * we write before the real spl code
- */
-#define CONFIG_SYS_NROF_UBL_HEADER 5
-#define CONFIG_SYS_NROF_PAGES_NAND_SPL 6
-
-#define CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS ((CONFIG_SYS_NROF_UBL_HEADER * \
- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_BLOCK_SIZE) + \
- (CONFIG_SYS_NROF_PAGES_NAND_SPL) * \
- CONFIG_SYS_NAND_PAGE_SIZE)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Burning into NAND:
-
-step 1:
-The RBL searches from Block n ( n = 1..24) on page 0 for valid UBL
-Headers, so you have to burn the UBL header page from the u-boot.ubl
-image to the blocks, you want to have the UBL header.
-!! Don;t forget to switch to rbl nand read/write functions with
- "nandrbl rbl"
-
-step 2:
-You need to setup in the ublimage.cfg, where the RBL can find the spl
-code, and how big it is.
-
-!! RBL always starts reading from page 0 !!
-
-For the AIT board, we have:
-PAGES 6
-START_BLOCK 5
-
-So we need to copy the spl code to block 5 page 0
-!! Don;t forget to switch to rbl nand read/write functions with
- "nandrbl rbl"
-
-step 3:
-You need to copy the u-boot image to the block/page
-where the spl code reads it (CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS)
-!! Don;t forget to switch to rbl nand read/write functions with
- "nandrbl uboot", which is default.
-
-On the cam_enc_4xx board it is:
-#define CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_OFFS (0xc0000)
-
--> this results in following NAND usage on the cam_enc_4xx board:
-
-addr
-
-20000 possible UBL Header
-40000 possible UBL Header
-60000 possible UBL Header
-80000 possilbe UBL Header
-a0000 spl code
-c0000 u-boot code
-
-The above steps are executeed through the following environment vars:
-(using 80000 as address for the UBL header)
-
-pagesz=800
-uboot=/tftpboot/cam_enc_4xx/u-boot.ubl
-load=tftp 80000000 ${uboot}
-writeheader nandrbl rbl;nand erase 80000 ${pagesz};nand write 80000000 80000 ${pagesz};nandrbl uboot
-writenand_spl nandrbl rbl;nand erase a0000 3000;nand write 80000800 a0000 3000;nandrbl uboot
-writeuboot nandrbl uboot;nand erase c0000 5d000;nand write 80003800 c0000 5d000
-update=run load writeheader writenand_spl writeuboot
-
-If you do a "run load update" u-boot, spl + ubl header
-are magically updated ;-)
-
-Note:
-- There seem to be a bug in the RBL code (at least on my HW),
- In the UBL block, I can set the page to values != 0, so it
- is possible to burn step 1 and step 2 in one step into the
- flash, but the RBL ignores the page settings, so I have to
- burn the UBL Header to a page 0 and the spl code to
- a page 0 ... :-(
-- If we make the nand read/write functions in the RBL equal to
- the functions in u-boot (as I have no RBL code, it is only
- possible in u-boot), we could burn the complete image in
- one step ... that would be nice ...
