    "content": "Recent discussions confirmed (what the code always assumed): the\nRockchip BROM always enters U-Boot with the stack-pointer valid\n(i.e. the U-Boot startup code is running off the BROM stack).\n\nWe can thus replace the back-to-bootrom code (i.e. both the\nsave_boot_params and back_to_bootrom implementations) using C-code\nbased on setjmp/longjmp.  The new implementation is already structured\nto allow an easy drop-in of Andy's changes to enter download-mode when\nreturning to the BROM.\n\nThis turned out to require a some tweaking to system.h (making sure\nthat the prototype for save_boot_params_ret is visible for A64)and\nstart.S (so binutils knows that this is a possible function entry and\nit can correctly insert A32-to-Thumb transitions) and taking the axe\nto setjmp.h (which created quite a few issues with it not expecting\nA32/T32/Thumb call-sites and some fragility from GCC being smart about\nthe clobber-list of the inline assembly... which led to r9 not being\nsaved or restored).\n\nChanges in v3:\n- tracked the root-cause why no interwork branch was emitted and fixed\n  it using a '.type'-directive in start.S to mark save_boot_params_ret\n  as a (possible) function-entry.\n- converted setjmp/longjmp from inline-assembly to separate .S files\n  to improve predicatability if emitted code\n\nChanges in v2:\n- [added in v2] chain back_to_bootrom calls for SPL, first returning\n  to the TPL (using the same mechanism) and the to the BROM from the\n  TPL\n- also covers the RK3188 (which I had originally missed)\n\nPhilipp Tomsich (6):\n  arm: make save_boot_params_ret prototype visible for AArch64\n  arm: mark save_boot_params_ret as a function\n  arm: provide a PCS-compliant setjmp implementation\n  rockchip: back-to-bootrom: replace assembly-implementation with C-code\n  rockchip: back-to-bootrom: rk3188: chain from SPL via TPL to the BROM\n  rockchip: back-to-bootrom: allow passing a cmd to the bootrom\n\n arch/arm/cpu/armv7/start.S                   |  1 +\n arch/arm/include/asm/arch-rockchip/bootrom.h | 30 ++++++---\n arch/arm/include/asm/setjmp.h                | 94 ++++------------------------\n arch/arm/include/asm/system.h                | 62 +++++++++---------\n arch/arm/lib/Makefile                        |  6 ++\n arch/arm/lib/setjmp.S                        | 37 +++++++++++\n arch/arm/lib/setjmp_aarch64.S                | 42 +++++++++++++\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/Makefile              |  4 +-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/bootrom.c             | 54 +++++++++++++++-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk3036-board-spl.c    |  2 +-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk3188-board-spl.c    | 14 +----\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk3188-board-tpl.c    | 19 +++---\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk322x-board-spl.c    |  2 +-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk3288-board-spl.c    |  4 +-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk3368-board-tpl.c    |  2 +-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/rk3399-board-spl.c    |  2 +-\n arch/arm/mach-rockchip/save_boot_param.S     | 69 --------------------\n 17 files changed, 226 insertions(+), 218 deletions(-)\n create mode 100644 arch/arm/lib/setjmp.S\n create mode 100644 arch/arm/lib/setjmp_aarch64.S\n delete mode 100644 arch/arm/mach-rockchip/save_boot_param.S"
