RISC-V: Support separate firmware and kernel payload Support for separate firmware and kernel payload is added by updating BBL to read optional preloaded kernel address attributes from device-tree using a similar mechanism to that used to pass init ramdisk addresses to linux kernel. chosen { riscv,kernel-start = <0x00000000 0x80200000>; riscv,kernel-end = <0x00000000 0x80590634>; }; These attributes are added by QEMU and read by BBL when combining -bios <firmware-image> and -kernel <kernel-image> options. e.g. $ qemu-system-riscv64 -machine virt -bios bbl -kernel vmlinux With this change, bbl can be compiled without --with-payload and the dummy payload alignment is altered to make the memory footprint of the firmware-only bbl smaller. The dummy payload message is updated to indicate the alternative load method. This load method could also be supported by a first stage boot loader that reads seperate firmware and kernel from SPI flash. The main advantage of this new mechanism is that it eases kernel development by avoiding the riscv-pk packaging step after kernel builds, makes building per repository artefacts for CI simpler, and mimics bootloaders on other platforms that can load a kernel image file directly. Ultimately BBL should use an SPI driver to load the kernel image however this mechanism supports use cases such such as QEMU's -bios, -kernel and -initrd options following examples from other platforms that pass kernel entry to firmware via device-tree.
