docs(linux): U-Boot: Falcon-Mode: minor fixes for the 11.1 release#359
Merged
Conversation
The entry node defines the entry point for a binary blob in a fitImage. Even though the value is not relevant to the device-tree, ommiting it causes a non-fatal error log in debug u-boot build as follows: Can't get 'entry' property from FIT Therefore, this patch adds the entry node which also makes the fitImage generated using this its file consistent with one's generated during the yocto build process.

A few patches required for falcon mode to work have not been tagged for the 11.01 release. Therefore link to them in the docs so users can apply them manually. Signed-off-by: Anshul Dalal <anshuld@ti.com>

Falcon mode is the U-Boot feature and not specific to our yocto distro. Therefore document the usage of the feature for non-yocto users who would have to run the commands implemented by `ti-falcon` override manually. Signed-off-by: Anshul Dalal <anshuld@ti.com>

#368 will address that for now. Seems like some of the Red Hat rules are more tuned for asciidoc that I initially thought. |
The memory map for the R5 SPL is modified in falcon mode to accommodate the larger payload size of the fitImage. So, document the same. Signed-off-by: Anshul Dalal <anshuld@ti.com>
The release notes for AM62AX were missing any mention of the falcon mode feature, add it to make it consistent with other falcon supported platforms. Signed-off-by: Anshul Dalal <anshuld@ti.com>

The PR documents the meta-ti and U-Boot patches that will not make it to 11.1 release but are required for falcon mode to work properly. Among some other minor fixes and additions :)
