arm: aspeed: add ASPEED AST2700 SoC family support

2026-06-29T19:43:20Z

Add initial support for the ASPEED AST2700, an arm64 (Cortex-A35) Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) SoC. AST2700 is Aspeed's 8th generation BMC and uses a dual-die architecture: SoC0 (the "CPU" die) hosts the four Cortex-A35 cores and its own SCU at 0x12c02000, while SoC1 (the "IO" die) hosts the peripherals and its own SCU at 0x14c02000. This commit adds: - ASPEED_AST2700 Kconfig option and the ast2700 mach subdir (mach Makefile, ast2700/Kconfig, board/aspeed/evb_ast2700/*) - arm64 MMU map covering the SoC device window and the DRAM region at 0x4_0000_0000 (up to 8 GiB) - lowlevel_init.S for early CPU bring-up - cpu-info: print SoC ID (AST2700/2720/2750 A0/A1/A2 variants) and reset cause (cold reset, EXT reset, WDT reset) - board_common: dram_init via UCLASS_RAM, AHBC timeout init - platform: env_get_location() that selects SPI/eMMC based on the IO-die HW strap; arch_misc_init() that exposes ${boot_device} and ${verify} to the boot script - SCU0/SCU1 register layout header (scu_ast2700.h) - configs/evb-ast2700_defconfig and include/configs/evb_ast2700.h for the AST2700 EVB board The defconfig depends on ast2700-evb.dts, which is introduced in a subsequent patch; this commit must be applied with the remaining series for evb-ast2700_defconfig to build.

arm: aspeed: Fix AST2600 SPL external DTB alignment

2026-06-23T16:41:25Z

For AST2600 SPL with CONFIG_SPL_SEPARATE_BSS=y and CONFIG_OF_SEPARATE=y, fdt_find_separate() expects the appended control DTB at _image_binary_end. The AST2600 SPL linker script aligned _image_binary_end via the .binman_sym_table section. In builds where that section has no emitted contents, objcopy -O binary does not include the alignment bytes in spl/u-boot-spl-nodtb.bin. This causes the nodtb binary to end before _image_binary_end, so the appended DTB is placed too early. On evb-ast2600 this produced: sizeof(spl/u-boot-spl-nodtb.bin) = 0xc92c _image_binary_end = 0xc930 SPL then looked four bytes past the FDT header and failed with: Missing DTB No serial driver found Move the 8-byte alignment into the preceding emitted __u_boot_list section so the objcopy output and _image_binary_end agree.

core: Rework REGMAP symbols implementation

2026-03-30T22:59:35Z

As exposed by "make randconfig", we have an issue with the dependencies for REGMAP (and xPL variants). As this is a library function, it should always be selected and not depended on by other functionality. This is largely done correctly today, so just correct the few outliers.

treewide: Clean up DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR usage

2026-02-17T19:50:22Z

Remove DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR from files where gd is not used, and drop the unnecessary inclusion of asm/global_data.h. Headers should be included directly by the files that need them, rather than indirectly via global_data.h.

arm: Remove rel.dyn from SPL linker scripts

2026-01-28T18:57:01Z

As of v2026.01, no platforms contain any rel.dyn sections in their xPL phase images. Their inclusion in linker scripts initially was an oversight as part of taking the full U-Boot linker scripts and modifying them down. Then in commit 8b0ebe054bb3 ("arm: Update linker scripts to ensure appended device tree is aligned") these sections were used to force correct alignment for the device tree. This however, lead to a different problem. That problem is that when we do not have a separate BSS section in SPL we instead would overlay the BSS with the rel.dyn section, in the common linker script case. This in turn lead to creating an incorrectly sized BSS "pad" file sometimes (depending on arbitrary changes within the rest of the binary itself). This in turn lead to the dtb being in the wrong location in the binary and not found at run time. This commit fixes a few things: - Remove the rel.dyn section from all ARM SPL linker scripts. - In turn, this moves the dtb alignment statement in to another section. - For ast2600 which uses CONFIG_POSITION_INDEPENDENT we need to keep the symbols however.

arm: Update linker scripts to ensure appended device tree is aligned

2026-01-20T18:06:41Z

With commit 0535e46d55d7 ("scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version v1.7.2-35-g52f07dcca47c") it is now a fatal error to U-Boot if our device tree is not 8-byte aligned. In commit 85f586035d75 ("ARM: OMAP2+: Pad SPL binary to 8-byte alignment before DTB") Beleswar Padhi explains that we must have ALIGN(x) statements inside of a section to ensure that padding is included and not simply that the linker address counter is incremented. To that end, this patch: - Expands some linker sections to be more readable when adding a second statement to the section. - Aligns the final section before _end (for U-Boot) or _image_binary_end or __bss_end (for xPL phases) by 8-bytes by adding '. = ALIGN(8);' to the final section before the symbol. - Ensure that we do have alignment by adding an ASSERT so that when not aligned we fail to link (and explain why). - Remove now-spurious '. = ALIGN(x);' statements that were intended to provide the above alignments.

aspeed: Fix Kconfig logic on "DM_RESET" and ASPEED_AST2500

2024-12-04T20:00:30Z

It is not the case that we can only pick ASPEED_AST2500 if DM_RESET is enabled, but rather choosing ASPEED_AST2500 means we must select DM_RESET. Signed-off-by: Tom Rini
