Patrick Rudolph <patrick.rudolph@9elements.com> says:
Based on the existing work done by Simon Glass this series adds
support for booting aarch64 devices using ACPI only.
As first target QEMU SBSA support is added, which relies on ACPI
only to boot an OS. As secondary target the Raspberry Pi4 was used,
which is broadly available and allows easy testing of the proposed
solution.
The series is split into ACPI cleanups and code movements, adding
Arm specific ACPI tables and finally SoC and mainboard related
changes to boot a Linux on the QEMU SBSA and RPi4. Currently only the
mandatory ACPI tables are supported, allowing to boot into Linux
without errors.
The QEMU SBSA support is feature complete and provides the same
functionality as the EDK2 implementation.
The changes were tested on real hardware as well on QEMU v9.0:
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine sbsa-ref -nographic -cpu cortex-a57 \
-pflash secure-world.rom \
-pflash unsecure-world.rom
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine raspi4b -kernel u-boot.bin -cpu cortex-a72 \
-smp 4 -m 2G -drive file=raspbian.img,format=raw,index=0 \
-dtb bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb -nographic
Tested against FWTS V24.03.00.
Known issues:
- The QEMU rpi4 support is currently limited as it doesn't emulate PCI,
USB or ethernet devices!
- The SMP bringup doesn't work on RPi4, but works in QEMU (Possibly
cache related).
- PCI on RPI4 isn't working on real hardware since the pcie_brcmstb
Linux kernel module doesn't support ACPI yet.

Rename 'ahci_mvebu' to 'ahci_generic' and select it by default.
The AHCI driver contains no SoC specific code and only expects the
base address to be passed, thus rename it to ahci_generic and add the
DT compatible string "generic-ahci".
Update existing defconfigs to use the new Kconfig name as well.
TEST: Booted on QEMU sbsa using the generic-ahci node.

Enable OF_UPSTREAM to use upstream DT and add marvell/ prefix to the
DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE in DS116 defconfig. Remove current DTS in
arch/arm/dts/ directory.

Switch PHY_ANEG_TIMEOUT to CONFIG_PHY_ANEG_TIMEOUT Kconfig symbol.
This removes one more configuration headers option finalizes its
Kconfig symbol conversion. No functional change expected.

The help for CONFIG_MTD explains that it needs to be enabled for various
things like NAND, etc to be available. It however then doesn't enforce
this dependency and so if you have none of these systems present you
still need to disable a number of options. Fix this by making places
that select/imply one type of flash, but did not do the same, also do
this for "MTD". Make boards which hadn't been enabling MTD already but
need it now, do so. In a few places, disable CONFIG_CMD_MTDPARTS as it
wasn't previously enabled but was now being implied.
