Hi, More and more information about ARMv8 is released, the kernel,the toolchain and so on. But I cannot find the U-boot source code for ARMv8. Does the U-boot support ARMv8? Where can we find the U-boot for ARMv8? Best regards. Heron

We (Linaro) currently don't use U-Boot on ARMv8 and I don't believe such a port exists at the moment; I've just had a recent exchange with an upstream U-Boot developer interested in this support: http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-dev/2012-November/014326.html
The short answer is that at the moment we're using a boot wrapper (which combines the boot loader and kernel in a single file), and we expect to switch to Tianocore (UEFI) when it's available.
