Subject: [PATCH 0/3] add PBL handoff-data support
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2024 12:53:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240430105310.3149242-1-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)
We need to pass data from the PBL to barebox proper. Right now we do
this with passing the data in registers which is quite limited. As the
amount of information that has to be passed increases it's time to
overcome this limitation.
This series introduces handoff-data which is a linked list of memory
blobs that can be passed from PBL to barebox proper. Board and SoC
code can append this list with their own entries and pick them up later
in barebox proper. The ARM architecture is converted over to use handoff
data, other architectures could follow.
