There is a new directory $(srctree)/spl which contains only a Makefile. |

The object files for SPL are built separately and placed in the "spl" directory. |
|
|
|
|
The final binaries which are generated are u-boot-spl, u-boot-spl.bin and |
|
|
|
|
u-boot-spl.map. |
|
|

During the SPL build a variable named CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is exported |
|
|
|
|
in the make environment and also appended to CPPFLAGS with -DCONFIG_SPL_BUILD. |
|
|
|
|
A config option named CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is enabled by Kconfig for SPL. |
|
|
|
|
Source files can therefore be compiled for SPL with different settings. |
|
|
|
|
ARM-based boards have previously used the option CONFIG_PRELOADER for it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ifeq ($(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD),y) |
|
|
|
|
COBJS-y += board_spl.o |
|
|
|
|
obj-y += board_spl.o |
|
|

else |
|
|
|
|
COBJS-y += board.o |
|
|
|
|
obj-y += board.o |
|
|
|
|
endif |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
COBJS-$(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) += foo.o |
|
|
|
|
obj-$(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) += foo.o |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD |
|
|
|
|
foo(); |
|
|

|
#endif |

The building of SPL images can be with: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#define CONFIG_SPL 1 |
|
|
|
|
The building of SPL images can be enabled by CONFIG_SPL option in Kconfig. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because SPL images normally have a different text base, one has to be |
|
|
|
|
configured by defining CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE. The linker script has to be |

Normally CPU is assumed to be the same between the SPL and normal |
|
|
|
|
u-boot build. However it is possible to specify a different CPU for |
|
|
|
|
the SPL build for cases where the SPL is expected to run on a |
|
|
|
|
different CPU model from the main u-boot. This is done by specifying |
|
|
|
|
an SPL CPU in boards.cfg as follows: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
normal_cpu:spl_cpu |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This case CPU will be set to "normal_cpu" during the main u-boot |
|
|
|
|
build and "spl_cpu" during the SPL build. |
