firmware: Remove FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH compile-time option

2020-10-18T04:59:59Z

The FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH compile-time option is replaced by FW_FDT_PATH compile-time option which is more flexible and common across all OpenSBI firmwares. This patch removes FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH and updates related documentation to use FW_FDT_PATH. Signed-off-by: Anup Patel Reviewed-by: Atish Patra

firmware: Add common FW_FDT_PATH compile-time option

2020-10-18T04:58:26Z

Currently, only FW_PAYLOAD has mechanism to embed external FDT using FW_PAYLOAD_FDT_PATH compile-time option. This patch adds a common FW_FDT_PATH compile-time option to embed external FDT for all OpenSBI firmwares (i.e FW_JUMP, FW_PAYLOAD, and FW_DYNAMIC). Signed-off-by: Anup Patel Reviewed-by: Atish Patra

platform: Drop qemu/sifive_u support

2020-02-07T05:31:01Z

With QEMU v4.2 RISC-V changes to improve the emulation fidelity of 'sifive_u' machine, OpenSBI v0.4 / U-Boot v2019.10 / Linux kernel v5.3 images built for the SiFive HiFive Unleashed board can be used out of the box without any special hack. Hence there is no need for us to continue supporting such a special target in OpenSBI. Going forward, sifive/fu540 platform can be used on both real hardware and QEMU 'sifive_u' machine.
