<div dir="ltr">Hi Cedric,<div><br></div><div>My manager (Rick Alther) mentioned that you were working on some minimal "upstreamable" commit for Aspeed in U-Boot. How far were you able to get?</div><div><br></div><div>This is also what I was thinking of doing, so we should be able to join forces on this.</div><div><br></div><div>I talked to Simon Glass recently (he's an active contributor to mainline U-Boot) and basically that's the path that he also recommended -- just getting minimal amount of code in, that can just boot to a prompt. He also said that DRAM driver would have to be part of it.</div><div><br></div><div>So, the way I see it, there are two big chunks of work here:</div><div> 1. Setting up the whole structure. This would include actually adding a board, minimum amount of supporting code, debug serial console init, </div><div> 2. DDR3/DDR4 driver. This is the biggest part of what we have in platform.S now. A lot of work, but relatively straightforward, just rewrite ~1.5k lines of assembly in C.</div><div><br></div><div>Personally, I don't have preference on who does what, as long as we don't step on each other's toes. It would probably be easier for me to take (1), because I can easily talk to two people who are in our time zone and have a lot of mainline U-Boot experience.</div><div><br></div><div>Thoughts?<br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><b>M</b>axim <b>S</b>loyko</div></div>
