However, U-Boot itself is currently always built -in 32-bit mode. Some access to the full memory range is provided with -arch_phys_memset(). - -The development work to make U-Boot itself run in 64-bit mode has not yet -been attempted. The best approach would likely be to build a 32-bit SPL -image for U-Boot, with CONFIG_SPL_BUILD. This could then handle the early CPU -init in 16-bit and 32-bit mode, running the FSP and any other binaries that -are needed. Then it could change to 64-bit model and jump to U-Boot proper. - -Given U-Boot's extensive 64-bit support this has not been a high priority, -but it would be a nice addition. - TODO List --------- - Audio - Chrome OS verified boot -- Building U-Boot to run in 64-bit mode References ---------- |
