This is the latest release tag in the Xilinx repository, based on
U-Boot v2016.01 in the mainline.
Commit 46d6a561be ("zedboard: Generate BOOT.BIN automatically")
switched from the Xilinx GitHub repository to the U-Boot mainline,
but this commit gets it back to the Xilinx GitHub repository for the
following reasons:
- This defconfig still relies on the Xilinx's local repository for
the kernel. The vendor does the best test for the combination of
U-Boot and the kernel with the same release tag (xilinx-v2016.2
in this case).
- At the time of commit 46d6a561be, the u-boot-xlnx still needed
manual copy of ps7_init(_gpl).c/h in order to build a working SPL
image. So, the mainline U-Boot had advantage in that point of
time. However, the improvement in the mainline U-Boot was merged
into the u-boot-xlnx at the xilinx-v2015.3 release. Now, the
mainline and the u-boot-xlnx are even in this point of view.
- The mainline U-Boot defaults to boot FIT, so something must be
done; either patch environments around with a local patch to
switch to uImage booting (current solution), or build an FIT
with a post build script (chromebook snow does this). On the
other hand, the Xilinx repository defaults to uImage booting,
so it is straightforward, and needs no addition care.
This commit does:
- Switch to the Xilinx custom git repository, and stick to the
xilinx-v2016.2 tag.
- Delete the local patch board/avnet/zedboard/uboot/0001...
since the Xilinx custom repository can boot uImage by default.
- Enable BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_FORMAT_IMG instead of ..._FORMAT_DTB_IMG
since all the Zynq boards in U-Boot enable CONFIG_OF_EMBED.
- Replace BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_ZYNQ_IMAGE with BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_SPL_NAME
since U-Boot can natively generate the Zynq boot image now. The
Zynq image support for mkimage tool was upstreamed at v2016.01
(so xilinx-v2016.1 as well), so no additional tool is needed
any more.
- Update readme.txt

As reported in bug #9091, the U-Boot environment we provide for the
Microzed and Zedboard platforms loads the ramdisk at 0x2000000 and the
DT at 0x3000000. This means that a large enough ramdisk overwrites the
DT. It makes more sense to load the DT at 0x2000000 and the ramdisk at
0x3000000.

These three are Zynq boards and the build procedure is almost the
same. Having the SoC name prefix "zynq_" would be more consistent.
Also, this is the way in which the Linux Device Trees and the U-Boot
configuration files do.
This commit renames as follows:
zedboard_defconfig -> zynq_zed_defconfig
microzed_defconfig -> zynq_microzed_defconfig
xilinx_zc706_defconfig -> zynq_zc706_defconfig

By default, with the original patch bootcmd runs sdboot before loading uEnv.txt.
Consequently, if the user change modeboot, the user's defined content is updated
too late.
By loading uEnv.txt before 'run $modeboot' the correct boot mode is used instead
of default mode.

Changes are based on Zedboard: Xilinx does not provide a specific DTS
for Microzed in the kernel tree. It is suggested [1] to use the
zynq-zed.dts and change the RAM size

[Thomas:
- extend readme.txt to indicate why the same DTB is used for Microzed
and the Zedboard.
- add a description + Signed-off-by line in the
0001-zynq-Create-microzed-specific-U-Boot-environment.patch, by
re-using the description of the same patch for the Zedboard.]

This patch changes the U-Boot's default environment to
boot Zedboard out-of-the-box from SD card.
The sdboot procedure tries to load a file system.bit into
the Zynq's PL (only if it exists). It is also possible to
alter the booting by an uEnv.txt file located on your SD card.
The uEnv.txt is a plain text file with <key>=<value> pairs
one per line.

Bump zedboard defconfig to version 2014.1. This makes it possible to use
uboot-spl instead of the xilinx specific fsbl. However, the result is kinda
hacky due to the licensing state of ps7_init.{c,h} needed for building uboot
spl. Directions for building a proper boot.bin using the new methodolgy is
included in the readme.txt.
