Based on the context provided, it seems that your current U-Boot version (2020.04-5.5.0-devel) does not support the bootelf command, which is typically used for loading ELF files. The bootaux command you are using is not designed to interpret ELF files; it is primarily used for booting auxiliary processors with binary images. Therefore, using bootaux with an ELF file without proper ELF handling will likely lead to issues such as device rebooting.
Since your U-Boot version lacks the bootelf command, and bootaux cannot interpret ELF files, you will not be able to load and execute the axf file successfully with the current setup. You may need to explore alternative methods, such as:
-
Converting the AXF to a BIN File: Consider converting your axf file to a bin file that can be loaded using
bootaux. This might involve using a toolchain or utility that can extract the necessary sections from the ELF file and create a binary image. -
Updating U-Boot: If possible, update your U-Boot version to one that includes support for ELF loading with the
bootelfcommand. -
Custom ELF Loader: Implement a custom ELF loader in U-Boot that can parse the ELF file and load the sections into the correct memory locations.
Without these changes, the current setup will not be able to handle the ELF format correctly.
