The loadb and loads commands are not needed for booting.

There are also more reliable and faster alternatives to
loadb and loads that can be used with the current configuration.

As that the resulting image is already very close to the
size limit, removing the loadb and loads commands shouldn't
hurt.

With arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc 9.2.0-1 from the Parabola
GNU/Linux distribution we have the following size
reduction:
- text: 6733 bytes
- data: 116 bytes
- bss: 1172 bytes
- total: 8021 bytes

As that the resulting image is already very close to the
size limit, and that CONFIG_GZIP is not strictly required,
removing it shouldn't hurt.

This doesn't affect the size of the image: with
arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc 9.2.0-1 from the Parabola GNU/Linux
distribution, the text, data, bss and total sizes remain
unchanged.

The side effect is that it increase the size of the
resultimg image, which is already very close to the
size limit.

With arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc 9.2.0-1 from the Parabola

This keeps the compatibility with the old bootcmd.

The fdtfile environment variable also needed to be set to
imx6q-tbs2910.dtb to enable booting mainline kernels
otherwise with extlinux.conf it tries to load
mx6-tbs2910.dtb instead.

differences:

The installation documentation make use of the
"BOOT/UPDATE" mechanism that is documented in the TBS2910
OS installation manual[1].

This is to make sure that they work on the different PCB
revisions of this board.

There is also a boot configuration switch (SW6) but the
one described in the v2.1 schematics has 8 switches whereas
the one present on the v2.3 board has only 4.

Only the v2.1 board schematics are available.

Thank you very much for splitting up the patches and for your thorough
size analysis. This makes it very easy to understand the size
contributions of the several parts.

It was really surprising for me that CONFIG_DISTRO_DEFAULTS brings so
much additional text. I thought this would only enable
CONFIG_CMD_SYSBOOT, but we also get PXE support. I wasn't aware of this
before.

As you already noticed, we are quite close to the size limit of the
u-boot binary. So I would prefer to omit PXE.

Do you really want to use PXE boot on this board? Or would it be OK to
only enable CMD_SYSBOOT instead of DISTRO_DEFAULTS (and remove DHCP and
PXE boot targets in patch 5/6)?

Sorry for not bringing up this earlier,
Soeren

Thanks for adding this README.
You mentioned the boot configuration switch (SW6) in the commit message,
but not in the README itself. Does this mean you planned to include a
description of the boot switch settings (what I think would be a good
idea)?For board version V2.3 the switch settings are:
switch 1 2 3 4
eMMC   1 1 1 1
SD2    1 0 0 0
SD3    0 1 0 0

Loading u-boot from SATA unfortunately is not possible on V2.3 .

Distro boot brings in a ton of "support booting via any supported IO
device" code.

That said, the "bring in PXE" part of DISTRO_DEFAULTS predates sysboot
being pulled out of the PXE code, where it was historically introduced.
I would like to see a patch to change this part, stand-alone and CC'ing
the distribution folks that might have something to say about this.  I
know there are use-cases for it, but I don't know how critical they are
to be everywhere by default vs opt-in.  Thanks all!

I've done the patch, but I've not sent it yet.

With it, if board are using things like func(PXE, pxe, na) in
BOOT_TARGET_DEVICES, it will breaks the compilation, and we would have
an error that looks like that:
> In file included from include/configs/tbs2910.h:19,

Should I still send the patch as-is by mentioning that issue somehow,
in order to start a discussion on the topic?

Or would I need to do more in depth changes before sending the patch?

In the later case I would also need to find some time to do that, so it
might not be done that fast.

Denis.

Sounds like some of the logic needs updating.  If a board is saying
func(PXE,...) then it should be enabling CMD_PXE.  So yes, I'd like to
see things get a bit farther if you can, thanks!
