From e6571f38c943f7ff1ed38b90940d1265f6c7b9ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Pali=20Roh=C3=A1r?= Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2021 16:46:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] arm: mvebu: Remove dummy BIN header arguments for SPL binary MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit U-Boot SPL binary does not read BIN header arguments, so passing some dummy values 0000005b and 00000068 has no effect for U-Boot SPL code. Probably these two values comes from old Marvell DDR training code which was separated from U-Boot and used it for some configuration. Seems that two 32-bit values were specified here to ensure SPL code alignment to 128-bit boundary as it is required e.g. for A370 or AXP processors. Main kwbimage header is 64-byte long which is aligned to 128-bit boundary. Optional kwbheader is 32-bit long, number of BIN header arguments is stored in 32-bit number. So for alignment to 128-bit boundary is needed 64-bit padding which exactly these two 32-bit dummy arguments provided. Now when mkimage correctly aligns start of executable code in BIN header to 128-bit boundary, there is no requirement to put dummy argument values into kwbimage. So remove them.
