f_hramrach: Of course it has dram init in TF-A BL2..most, if not all platforms have that00:05
f_Let's not forget that TF-A is boot firmware after all..00:06
minuteimx8m does it in uboot00:08
f_Yeah forgot about imx00:10
f_ah00:10
f_but sunxi does it in SPL/BL2.00:10

skipwichhi, been following the project for a bit and been mostly lurking but interested in soon getting a Reform of my own00:12
minuteskipwich: cool00:13
skipwichminute: chiming in mainly to out-of-band reply to your latest toot on the rk3588 - have you seen the Collabora folks notes on the processor? they're doing most of the dev for that cpu in linux00:14
skipwichhttps://gitlab.collabora.com/hardware-enablement/rockchip-3588/notes-for-rockchip-3588/-/blob/main/mainline-status.md00:14
minuteskipwich: oh i hadn't seen that yet, thank you00:14
skipwichyou're welcome! I've been following that cpu's support in linux for a bit now, though they seem to be doing most of their work on the Radxa Rock 5B board, so ymmv with the firefly if using their branch00:18
f_Collabora, of course!00:18

hramrachrockchip also has some code for DDR init in u-boot00:26
minutef_: yeah but it's a while off. mainly checking what's the state of things at the moment00:27
minuterk3588 feels like a pretty complex beast00:27
hramrachbut it's true that most of the time it makes sense to store TF-A in memory, and then it needs to be initialized00:29

hramrachThe SoC typically has very little internal memory so the TF-A will likely need the external RAM to operate in most cases16:23
+ mark_ (~mjw@gnu.wildebeest.org)16:25
f_Oh that's what you meant.16:25
f_Of course.16:26
hramrachThere's the thing that once Linux is up and running all the SoCs look mostly the same but at the time TF-A is bootstrapped you get to see some platform details that can vary a lot from one Soc to another ;-)16:28
hramrachsome would use the CPU cache for early operation which is unusable once DDR is initialized, some have dedicated internal memory of varying size ...16:30
f_Indeed.16:30
f_amlogic SoCs have SRAM.16:30
f_the SRAM can still be used once DRAM is initialised though AFAICT16:31
hramrachand if it's big enough and can be protected it could technically hold TF-A, and it would not need to initialize external RAM to run then16:32
hramrachit depends on other architectural details if such setup makes sense in some way, no ida about Amlogic16:34
f_It's not big enough for U-Boot I guess.16:37
f_Either way Amlogic decided to do DRAM init in BL2..for whatever reason16:37
f_(except on newer SoCs it's a huge mess with BL2X, BL2E, ?????)16:38
hramrachthey figured that different devices need different RAM settings so added plugns - at least that's what it looks like from some of the diagrams.16:40
hramrachAnd not initializing the RAM in the first place would avoid the mess - so long as SPL or TPL can be loaded into SRAM and do custom initialization only then16:42
hramrachAlso I suspect some platforms do something like initializing the RAM at some very low frequency, and only later u-boot re-programs it to run at the frequency specific to the device16:43
hramrachThe plugin design is based on the proprietary software philosophy - Amlogic provides one binary, and board vendors provide a plugin to customize it for thei board design. u-boot does not need to follow it so long as it can do without the proprietary plugins, which is typically not the case initially.16:47
