+Qualcomm generic boards
+=======================
+
+About this
+----------
+This document describes how to build and run U-Boot for Qualcomm generic
+boards. Right now the generic target supports the Snapdragon 845 SoC, however
+it's expected to support more SoCs going forward.
+
+SDM845 - high-end qualcomm chip, introduced in late 2017.
+Mostly used in flagship phones and tablets of 2018.
+
+The current boot flow support loading u-boot as an Android boot image via
+Qualcomm's UEFI-based ABL (Android) Bootloader. The DTB used by U-Boot will
+be appended to the U-Boot image the same way as when booting Linux. U-Boot
+will then retrieve the DTB during init. This way the memory layout and KASLR
+offset will be populated by ABL.
+
+Installation
+------------
+Build
+^^^^^
+
+ $ ./tools/buildman/buildman -o .output qcom
+
+This will build ``.output/u-boot-nodtb.bin`` using the ``qcom_defconfig``.
+
+Generate FIT image (optional)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+See doc/uImage.FIT for more details
+
+Pack android boot image
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+We'll assemble android boot image with ``u-boot-nodtb.bin`` instead of linux kernel,
+and FIT image instead of ``initramfs``. Android bootloader expect gzipped kernel
+with appended dtb, so let's mimic linux to satisfy stock bootloader.
+
+Boards
+------
+
+starqlte
+^^^^^^^^
+
+The starqltechn is a production board for Samsung S9 (SM-G9600) phone,
+based on the Qualcomm SDM845 SoC.
+
+This device is supported by the common qcom_defconfig.
+
+The DTB is called "sdm845-samsung-starqltechn.dtb"
+
+More information can be found on the `Samsung S9 page`_.
+
+dragonboard845c
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The dragonboard845c is a Qualcomm Robotics RB3 Development Platform, based on
+the Qualcomm SDM845 SoC.
+
+This device is supported by the common qcom_defconfig
+
+The DTB is called "sdm845-db845c.dtb"
+
+More information can be found on the `DragonBoard 845c page`_.
+
+qcs404-evb
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The QCS404 EvB is a Qualcomm Development Platform, based on the Qualcomm QCS404 SoC.
+
+This device is supported by the common qcom_defconfig
+
+The DTB is called "qcs404-evb-4000.dtb"
+
+Building steps
+--------------
+
+Steps:
+
+- Build u-boot
+
+As above::
+
+ ./tools/buildman/buildman -o .output qcom
+
+Or for db410c (and other boards not supported by the generic target)::
+
+ make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=.output dragonboard410c_defconfig
+ make O=.output -j$(nproc)
+
+- gzip u-boot::
+
+ gzip u-boot-nodtb.bin
+
+- Append dtb to gzipped u-boot::
+
+ cat u-boot-nodtb.bin.gz arch/arm/dts/your-board.dtb > u-boot-nodtb.bin.gz-dtb
+
+- If you chose to build a FIT image, A ``qcom.its`` file can be found in ``board/qualcomm/generic/``
+ directory. It expects a folder as ``qcom_imgs/`` in the main directory containing pre-built kernel,
+ dts and ramdisk images. See ``qcom.its`` for full path to images::
+
+ mkimage -f qcom.its qcom.itb
+
+- Now we've got everything to build android boot image::
+
+ mkbootimg --kernel u-boot-nodtb.bin.gz-dtb --ramdisk db845c.itb \
+ --output boot.img --pagesize 4096 --base 0x80000000
+
+Or with no FIT image::
+
+ mkbootimg --kernel u-boot-nodtb.bin.gz-dtb \
+ --output boot.img --pagesize 4096 --base 0x80000000
+
+- Flash boot.img using fastboot and erase dtbo to avoid conflicts with our DTB:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+ fastboot flash boot boot.img
+ fastboot erase dtbo

+Qualcomm debugging
+==================
+
+About this
+----------
+
+This page describes how to enable early UART and other debugging techniques
+for Qualcomm boards.
+
+Enable debug UART
+-----------------
+
+Newer boards (SDM845 and newer, those with GENI SE UART)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Open ``configs/qcom_defconfig`` and add the following snippet to the bottom:
+
+ CONFIG_BAUDRATE=115200
+
+ # Uncomment to enable UART pre-relocation
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART=y
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_ANNOUNCE=y
+ # This is the address of the debug-uart peripheral
+ # The value here is for SDM845, other platforms will vary
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_BASE=0xa84000
+ # Boards older than ~2018 pre-date the GENI driver and unfortunately
+ # aren't supported here
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_MSM_GENI=y
+ # For sdm845 this is the UART clock rate
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_CLOCK=7372800
+ # Most newer boards have an oversampling value of 16 instead
+ # of 32, they need the clock rate to be doubled
+ #CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_CLOCK=14745600
+
+Then build as normal (don't forget to ``make qcom_defconfig``` again).
+
+Older boards (db410c and db820c)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Open ``configs/dragonboard<BOARD>_defconfig``
+
+ CONFIG_BAUDRATE=115200
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART=y
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_ANNOUNCE=y
+ # db410c - 0x78b0000
+ # db820c - 0x75b0000
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_BASE=0x75b0000
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_MSM=y
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_CLOCK=7372800
+ #CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_SKIP_INIT=y
+
+ CONFIG_LOG=y
+ CONFIG_HEXDUMP=y
+ CONFIG_CMD_LOG=y
+ CONFIG_LOG_MAX_LEVEL=9
+ CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL=9
+ CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=9
