# Cavium bootflow
|
||||
|
||||
The on-chip **BOOTROM** first sets up the L2 cache and the SPI controller.
|
||||
It then reads **CSIB_NBL1FW** and **CLIB_NBL1FW** configuration data to get
|
||||
the position of the bootstage in flash. It then loads 192KiB from flash into
|
||||
L2 cache to a fixed address. The boot mode is called "Non-Secure-Boot" as
|
||||
the signature of the bootstage isn't verified.
|
||||
The **BOOTROM** can do AES decryption for obfuscation or verify the signature
|
||||
of the bootstage. Both features aren't used and won't be described any further.
|
||||
|
||||
* The typical position of bootstage in flash is at address **0x20000**.
|
||||
* The entry point in physical DRAM is at address **0x100000**.
