+ Interface between kernel and boot loaders on Exynos boards
+ ==========================================================
+
+Author: Krzysztof Kozlowski
+Date : 6 June 2015
+
+The document tries to describe currently used interface between Linux kernel
+and boot loaders on Samsung Exynos based boards. This is not a definition
+of interface but rather a description of existing state, a reference
+for information purpose only.
+
+In the document "boot loader" means any of following: U-boot, proprietary
+SBOOT or any other firmware for ARMv7 and ARMv8 initializing the board before
+executing kernel.
+
+
+1. Non-Secure mode
+Address: sysram_ns_base_addr
+Offset Value Purpose
+=============================================================================
+0x08 exynos_cpu_resume_ns System suspend
+0x0c 0x00000bad (Magic cookie) System suspend
+0x1c exynos4_secondary_startup Secondary CPU boot
+0x1c + 4*cpu exynos4_secondary_startup (Exynos4412) Secondary CPU boot
+0x20 0xfcba0d10 (Magic cookie) AFTR
+0x24 exynos_cpu_resume_ns AFTR
+0x28 + 4*cpu 0x8 (Magic cookie, Exynos3250) AFTR
+
+
+2. Secure mode
+Address: sysram_base_addr
+Offset Value Purpose
+=============================================================================
+0x00 exynos4_secondary_startup Secondary CPU boot
+0x04 exynos4_secondary_startup (Exynos542x) Secondary CPU boot
+4*cpu exynos4_secondary_startup (Exynos4412) Secondary CPU boot
+0x20 exynos_cpu_resume (Exynos4210 r1.0) AFTR
+0x24 0xfcba0d10 (Magic cookie, Exynos4210 r1.0) AFTR
+
+Address: pmu_base_addr
+Offset Value Purpose
+=============================================================================
+0x0800 exynos_cpu_resume AFTR
+0x0814 exynos4_secondary_startup (Exynos4210 r1.1) Secondary CPU boot
+0x0818 0xfcba0d10 (Magic cookie, Exynos4210 r1.1) AFTR
+0x081C exynos_cpu_resume (Exynos4210 r1.1) AFTR
+
+
+3. Other (regardless of secure/non-secure mode)
+Address: pmu_base_addr
+Offset Value Purpose
+=============================================================================
+0x0908 Non-zero (only Exynos3250) Secondary CPU boot up indicator
