Here is the step-by-step to boot to U-Boot on RK3368-uQ7 Get the Source and build ATF ============================ > git clone git://git.theobroma-systems.com/arm-trusted-firmware.git > cd arm-trusted-firmware > make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- PLAT=rk3368 bl31 > cp build/rk3368/release/bl31.bin ../u-boot/bl31-rk3368.bin Configure U-Boot ================ > cd ../u-boot > make lion-rk3368_defconfig Build the TPL/SPL stage ======================= > make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-unknown-elf- Build the full U-Boot and a FIT image including the ATF ======================================================= > make CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-unknown-elf- u-boot.itb Flash the image =============== Copy the SPL to offset 32k and the FIT image containing the payloads (U-Boot proper, ATF, devicetree) to offset 256k card.
