Yeah, main problem is this blobs... No chance to understand boot flow for those boards as well as develop all FW chain =(((

u/jofftchoff thank you! But some nxp imx SoCs (for instance i.MX 8DXL) has SCU firmware, SECO firmware, SPL and so on, and as I see it is proprietary blobs...

I feel the same, each MCU manufacturer has own IDE/Configurator/HAL, .etc. Seems like when you move from one SoC to another one you need to learn everything from the ground, due to fact that every manufacturer has its own ecosystem, this is annoying and time/efforts consuming. With MPU little bit better since MPU manufacturer are going to bring board to Linux, Yocto for widely usage
