These flags rely on code in the bootloader to actually handle the target
action. Nowadays this is uboot, but still a rockchip-specific fork. And we're
actively moving away from that, with the recent rk3288 addition to mainline
uboot.

So unless you convince uboot people that the _underlying special
functionality_ behind these flags should be part of uboot, I don't think this
is going to fly.


In a way this is similar to gpu kernel code talking to proprietary userspace
libs - these are also not eligible for the kernel. (meaning stuff like the
mali kernel driver not being allowed).

the restart handlers are meant to really only restart the system, not to
execute some actions before the restart happens.

See https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/3/707 for a similar case.

  Sorry, I don't know about this action before, but this is really a
very convenient way
  to get machine enter download mode, it seems that many Android devices
  have this function to support commands like "reboot recovery",
"reboot fastboot".
  Why should we moving away from that?

I don't want to comment on what Linux does or does not want. But I can
see this sort of feature being useful for devs at least. So long as it
is defined in a way that is not Rockchip-specific (and the above enum
looks pretty reasonable on that front, I think it makes sense.

Of course it's a bit odd to target a downstream U-Boot with a Linux
feature. But hopefully Rockchip's U-Boot support and development will
move to mainline with time.

Is there any chance for this patch to be landed?
As Simon says, it is useful for development. And
he is upstreaming Rockchip U-boot.

Sorry that I'm still dragging my feet with this, but I'm still struggling with
what to do.

I did talk to the arm-soc maintainers and doing this in general seems to be
fine. Olof was very in favour, others pointed out that just passing through
the command into the register might be the best solution - without having to
translate stuff in the kernel.


So I guess the translation table (string to number) is the thing to talk
about. I guess my worries are three-fold:

- will this actually be stable or do we get a future where this translation
gets to be soc-specific, like "if rk3288 table_a; if rk3368 table_b ..." ?

- can we trim that down to actually supported modes?

- I forgot that we already have other mass-production bootloaders, so what
does coreboot on veyron devices do with these register-values?


As it is probably also valid for rk3368 and following, I guess it should live
somehow in drivers/soc/rockchip too.

Some commands are very long(recovery,bootloader, fastboot etc),
they can't be stored into a register directly. And this also bring
compatible
problems to the old boot loader.

All Rockchip base socs use this mechanism, but this commands may
stored in different registers in different soc.

I have take a look at exynos and msm android base platforms, they
use the same mechanism[1][2], so I think many platforms need this
function.
[1]
https://github.com/droidroidz/Manta_kernel/blob/master/arch/arm/mach-exynos/board-manta-power.c
[2]
https://github.com/msm7x30/android_kernel_qcom_msm7x30/blob/android-3.10/arch/arm/mach-msm/restart_7k.c

coreboot use different download mechanism, it doesn't touch this
register.

Yes, rk3368 also need this function, so maybe we should put it in
drivers/soc/rockchip.
