This series provides a way to keep track of the images used in bootstd,
including the type of each image.
At present this is sort-of handled by struct bootflow but in quite an
ad-hoc way. The structure has become quite large and is hard to query.
Future work will be able to reduce its size.
Ultimately the 'bootflow info' command may change to also show images as
a list, but that is left for later, as this series is already fairly
long. So for now, just introduce the concept and adjust bootstd to use
it, with a simple command to list the images.
This series includes various alist enhancements, to make use of this new
data structure a little easier.

Rather than doing autoprobe within the driver model code, move it out to
the board-init code. This makes it clear that it is a separate step from
binding devices.
For now this is always done twice, before and after relocation, but we
should discuss whether it might be possible to drop the post-relocation
probe.
For boards with SPL, the autoprobe is still done there as well.
Note that with this change, autoprobe happens after the
EVT_DM_POST_INIT_R/F events are sent, rather than before.

Based on the existing work done by Simon Glass this series adds
support for booting aarch64 devices using ACPI only.
As first target QEMU SBSA support is added, which relies on ACPI
only to boot an OS. As secondary target the Raspberry Pi4 was used,
which is broadly available and allows easy testing of the proposed
solution.
The series is split into ACPI cleanups and code movements, adding
Arm specific ACPI tables and finally SoC and mainboard related
changes to boot a Linux on the QEMU SBSA and RPi4. Currently only the
mandatory ACPI tables are supported, allowing to boot into Linux
without errors.
The QEMU SBSA support is feature complete and provides the same
functionality as the EDK2 implementation.
The changes were tested on real hardware as well on QEMU v9.0:
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine sbsa-ref -nographic -cpu cortex-a57 \
-pflash secure-world.rom \
-pflash unsecure-world.rom
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine raspi4b -kernel u-boot.bin -cpu cortex-a72 \
-smp 4 -m 2G -drive file=raspbian.img,format=raw,index=0 \
-dtb bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb -nographic
Tested against FWTS V24.03.00.
Known issues:
- The QEMU rpi4 support is currently limited as it doesn't emulate PCI,
USB or ethernet devices!
- The SMP bringup doesn't work on RPi4, but works in QEMU (Possibly
cache related).
- PCI on RPI4 isn't working on real hardware since the pcie_brcmstb
Linux kernel module doesn't support ACPI yet.
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241023132116.970117-1-patrick.rudolph@9elements.com
Add support for Arm sbsa [1] v0.3+ that is supported by QEMU [2].
Unlike other Arm based platforms the machine only provides a minimal
FDT that contains number of CPUs, ammount of memory and machine-version.
The boot firmware has to provide ACPI tables to the OS.
Due to this design a full DTB is added here as well that allows U-Boot's
driver to properly function. The DTB is appended at the end of the U-Boot
image and will be merged with the QEMU provided DTB.
In addition provide documentation how to use, enable binman to fabricate both
ROMs that are required to boot and add ACPI tables to make it full compatible
to the EDK2 reference implementation.
The board was tested using Fedora 40 Aarch64 Workstation. It's able
to boot from USB and AHCI or network.
Tested and found working:
- serial
- PCI
- xHCI
- Bochs display
- AHCI
- network using e1000e
- CPU init
- Booting Fedora 40

Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org> says:
When the SPL build-phase was first created it was designed to solve a
particular problem (the need to init SDRAM so that U-Boot proper could
be loaded). It has since expanded to become an important part of U-Boot,
with three phases now present: TPL, VPL and SPL
Due to this history, the term 'SPL' is used to mean both a particular
phase (the one before U-Boot proper) and all the non-proper phases.
This has become confusing.
For a similar reason CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is set to 'y' for all 'SPL'
phases, not just SPL. So code which can only be compiled for actual SPL,
for example, must use something like this:
#if defined(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) && !defined(CONFIG_TPL_BUILD)
In Makefiles we have similar issues. SPL_ has been used as a variable
which expands to either SPL_ or nothing, to chose between options like
CONFIG_BLK and CONFIG_SPL_BLK. When TPL appeared, a new SPL_TPL variable
was created which expanded to 'SPL_', 'TPL_' or nothing. Later it was
updated to support 'VPL_' as well.
This series starts a change in terminology and usage to resolve the
above issues:
- The word 'xPL' is used instead of 'SPL' to mean a non-proper build
- A new CONFIG_XPL_BUILD define indicates that the current build is an
'xPL' build
- The existing CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is changed to mean SPL; it is not now
defined for TPL and VPL phases
- The existing SPL_ Makefile variable is renamed to SPL_
- The existing SPL_TPL Makefile variable is renamed to PHASE_
It should be noted that xpl_phase() can generally be used instead of
the above CONFIGs without a code-space or run-time penalty.
This series does not attempt to convert all of U-Boot to use this new
terminology but it makes a start. In particular, renaming spl.h and
common/spl seems like a bridge too far at this point.
The series is fully bisectable. It has also been checked to ensure there
are no code-size changes on any commit.

Android boot flow is a bit different than a regular Linux distro.
Android relies on multiple partitions in order to boot.
A typical boot flow would be:
1. Parse the Bootloader Control Block (BCB, misc partition)
2. If BCB requested bootonce-bootloader, start fastboot and wait.
3. If BCB requested recovery or normal android, run the following:
3.a. Get slot (A/B) from BCB
3.b. Run AVB (Android Verified Boot) on boot partitions
3.c. Load boot and vendor_boot partitions
3.d. Load device-tree, ramdisk and boot
The AOSP documentation has more details at [1], [2], [3]
This has been implemented via complex boot scripts such as [4].
However, these boot script are neither very maintainable nor generic.
Moreover, DISTRO_DEFAULTS is being deprecated [5].
Add a generic Android bootflow implementation for bootstd.
For this initial version, only boot image v4 is supported.

There are of course not a whole lot of examples in-tree yet, but
before they appear, let's make this API change: Instead of separately
allocating a 'struct cyclic_info', make the users embed such an
instance in their own structure, and make the convention that the
callback simply receives the 'struct cyclic_info *', from which the
clients can get their own data using the container_of() macro.
This has a number of advantages.
First, it means cyclic_register() simply cannot fail, simplifying the
code. The necessary storage will simply be allocated automatically
when the client's own structure is allocated (often via
uclass_priv_auto or similar).
Second, code for which CONFIG_CYCLIC is just an option can more easily
be written without #ifdefs, if we just provide an empty struct
cyclic_info {}. For example, the nested CONFIG_IS_ENABLED()s in
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20240316201416.211480-1-marek.vasut+renesas@mailbox.org/
are mostly due to the existence of the 'struct cyclic_info *' member
being guarded by #ifdef CONFIG_CYCLIC.
And we do probably want to avoid the extra memory overhead of that
member when !CONFIG_CYCLIC. But that is automatic if, instead of a
'struct cyclic_info *', one simply embeds a 'struct cyclic_info',
which will have size 0 when !CONFIG_CYCLIC. Also, the no-op
cyclic_register() function can just unconditionally be called, and the
compiler will see that (1) the callback is referenced, so not emit a
warning for a maybe-unused function and (2) see that it can actually
never be reached, so not emit any code for it.
