I have a sabresd board, running with latest android O.
I also have an older code for another imx6qp based board. That board is based on plugin boot and it uses flash_header.S. I am trying to take changes from older code and integrate to the newer one.
Can anyone help me in understanding this,
Previously we used to have one flash_header.S file which used to support plugin booting.
Now same flash_header.S is broken in two files, one is plugin.S and another is mx6_plugin.S.
Can anybody tell me what are the fundamental difference between these two?
Like how and when,
b _start
is called when we use plugin.S and mx6_plugin.S.
When ivt header entries are created?
I see this in mx6_plugin.S
second_ivt_offset: .long (ivt2_header + 0x2C + FLASH_OFFSET)
/*
* The following is the second IVT header plus the second boot data
*/
ivt2_header: .long 0x0
app2_code_jump_v: .long 0x0
reserv3: .long 0x0
dcd2_ptr: .long 0x0
boot_data2_ptr: .long 0x0
self_ptr2: .long 0x0
app_code_csf2: .long 0x0
reserv4: .long 0x0
boot_data2: .long 0x0
image_len2: .long 0x0
plugin2: .long 0x0
No values are given, so when values are given? in flash_header.S all values for ivt headers were hardcoded.
Also in the generated linker u-boot.lds I don't see any flashheader section.
