From: Oleksij Rempel <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Barebox' PBL is able to initialize SoC's memory controller, but it can be used only if PBL runs from ROM or on-chip SRAM. MIPS architecture standard boot vector is 0xbfc00000 so on most MIPS SoCs all addresses higher than 0xbfc00000 belong to boot ROM or on-chip SRAM. Thus there's a simple criterion to check if PBL runs from ROM: just check if current PC is higher than 0xbfc00000. Some MIPS boards have ROM start address lower than 0xbfc00000 so it's reasonable to make ROM start address checking board-dependant. The pbl_blt macro checks if current pc is lower than the first argument (ROM start address). If so then next instruction executed is defined by the second argument of the macro.
