cmd: load: add load command for memory mapped
cp.b is used a lot as a way to load binaries to memory and execute them, however we may need to integrate this with the efi subsystem to set it up as a bootdev. So, introduce a loadm command that will be consistent with the other loadX commands and will call the efi API's. ex: loadm $kernel_addr $kernel_addr_r $kernel_size with this a kernel with CONFIG_EFI_STUB enabled will be loaded and then subsequently booted with bootefi command.

|
||||
Synopsis
|
||||

|

loadm <src_addr> <dst_addr> <len>
|
||||
|
||||
Description
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
The loadm command is used to copy memory content from source address
|
||||
to destination address and, if efi is enabled, will setup a "Mem" efi
|
||||
boot device.
|
||||
|
||||
The number of transferred bytes must be set by bytes parameter
|
||||
|
||||
src_addr
|
||||
start address of the memory location to be loaded
|
||||
|
||||
dst_addr
|
||||
destination address of the byte stream to be loaded
|
||||
|
||||
len
|
||||
number of bytes to be copied in hexadecimal. Can not be 0 (zero).
|
||||
|
||||
Example
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
=> loadm ${kernel_addr} ${kernel_addr_r} ${kernel_size}
|
||||
loaded bin to memory: size: 12582912
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
The command is only available if CONFIG_CMD_LOADM=y.
|
||||
|
||||
Return value
|
||||
------------
