From 5d898a00f3929fbe18427d15524c4da6b7575b95 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohui Xie Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2012 02:49:35 +0000 Subject: powerpc/CoreNet: add tool to support pbl image build. Provides a tool to build boot Image for PBL(Pre boot loader) which is used on Freescale CoreNet SoCs, PBL can be used to load some instructions and/or data for pre-initialization. The default output image is u-boot.pbl, for more details please refer to doc/README.pblimage.
