Board information
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
The SBC produced by Phytec has a SOM based on a i.MX6Q.
|
|
The SOM is sold in two versions, with eMMC or with NAND. Support
|
|
here is for the SOM with NAND.
|
|
The evaluation board "phyBoard-Mira" is thought to be used
|
|
together with the SOM.
|
|
|
|
More information on the board can be found on manufacturer's
|
|
website:

Building U-Boot
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
$ make pcm058_defconfig
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
This generates the artifacts SPL and u-boot.img.
|
|
The SOM can boot from NAND or from SD-Card, having the SPI-NOR
|
|
as second option.
|
|
The dip switch "DIP-1" on the board let choose between
|
|
NAND and SD.
|
|
|
|
DIP-1 set to off: Boot first from NAND, then try SPI
|
|
DIP-1 set to on: Boot first from SD, then try SPI
|
|
|
|
The bootloader was tested with DIP-1 set to on. If a SD-card
|
|
is present, then the RBL tries to load SPL from the SD Card, if not,
|
|
RBL loads from SPI-NOR. The SPL tries then to load from the same
|
|
device where SPL was loaded (SD or SPI). Booting from NAND is
|
|
not supported.
|
|
|
|
Flashing U-Boot onto an SD card
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
After a successful build, the generated SPL and U-Boot binaries can be copied
|
|
to an SD card. Adjust the SD card device as necessary:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo dd if=u-boot-with-spl.imx of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1
|
|
|
|
This is equivalent to separately copying the SPL and U-Boot using:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo dd if=SPL of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1
|
|
$ sudo dd if=u-boot-dtb.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=197
|
|
|
|
The default bootscripts expect a kernel fit-image file named "fitImage" in the
|
|
first partition and Linux ext4 rootfs in the second partition.
|
|
|
|
Flashing U-Boot to the SPI Flash, for booting Linux from NAND
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The SD card created above can also be used to install the SPL and U-Boot into
|
|
the SPI flash. Boot U-Boot from the SD card as above, and stop at the autoboot.
|
|
|
|
Then, clear the SPI flash:
|
|
|
|
=> sf probe
|
|
=> sf erase 0x0 0x1000000
|
|
|
|
Load the equivalent of u-boot-with-spl.imx from the raw MMC into memory and
|
|
copy to the SPI. The SPL is expected at an offset of 0x400, and its size is
|
|
maximum 392*512-byte blocks in size, therefore 0x188 blocks, totaling 0x31000
|
|
bytes. Assume U-Boot should fit into 640KiB, therefore 0x500 512-byte blocks,
|
|
totalling 0xA0000 bytes. Adding these together:
|
|
|
|
=> mmc read ${loadaddr} 0x2 0x688
|
|
=> sf write ${loadaddr} 0x400 0xD1000
|
|
|
|
The SPL is located at offset 0x400, and U-Boot at 0x31400 in SPI flash, as to
|
|
match the SD Card layout. This would allow, instead of reading from the SD Card
|
|
above, with networking and TFTP correctly configured, the equivalent of:
|
|
|
|
=> tftp u-boot-with-spl.imx
|
|
=> sf write ${fileaddr} 0x400 ${filesize}
|
|
|
|
The default NAND bootscripts expect a single MTD partition named "rootfs",
|
|
which in turn contains the UBI volumes "fit" (which contains the kernel fit-
|
|
image) and "root" (which contains a ubifs root filesystem).
|
|
|
|
The "bootm_size" variable in the environment
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
By default, U-Boot relocates the device tree towards the upper end of the RAM,
|
|
which kernels using CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y may not be able to access during early
|
|
boot. With the bootm_size variable set to 0x30000000, U-Boot relocates the
|
|
device tree to below this address instead.
