[Barbier, Renaud]
Just to give you a bit more context. In our platform ARM (all non-pbl) or PPC, we add a call to do a PBIT memory test before starting barebox. The uart is initialized just before that at a fixed baud rate of 9600 bauds. Now we have a requirement to support more than one baud rate configurable by the user. And our next ARM based board is going to have a PBL.
Are you saying that from the PBL, I can do something like baud=getenv("baudrate") to get the environment variable value. This would require to have /dev/env0 instantiated, would not it?
Does not that require to have the environment init code (fs support and all) be compiled as part of the PBL (lwl-y +=....).
My environment variables are in QSPI, so I would think I could parse the environment variable without the whole barebox support instead.
If not possible then I think we can find some other way to retrieve the baud rate.
Cheers.
