fip_create questions #144

Closed leiflindholm closed 10 years ago

leiflindholm commented 10 years ago

Scanning through fip_create.c, there is an entry in the toc_entry_lookup_list referred to as SCP Firmware BL3-0. It is not documented anywhere - what is it intended to be?

Also, minor note, the comment above that struct states that "Currently only BL2 and BL31 images are supported.". I assume at least BL33 is now considered supported?

BL3-0 is SCP Firmware(, or/and other stuff probably ) SCP : System Control Processor For SCP, it may be an coprocessor(maybe a MCU) that controls power management
