8 years agoMy goal is to build a working SPL. This version from the Terasic SystemCD is the only (partial) success I've had. So I can't build other versions, because there doesn't appear to be out-of-the-box support for de1-soc. The SystemCD builds SPL by grabbing U-boot from the embedded distro, and patching it. So, I can add print statements or whatever to SPL2, but I don't have much of a clue what to print.
The U-boot script for loading and boot doesn't change at all in my testing. In the output I quoted, you can see: reading zImage 3809104 bytes read in 1283 ms (2.8 MiB/s) reading socfpga.dtb 17119 bytes read in 13 ms (1.3 MiB/s) It always gets loaded to the same place, 0x8000
