How to create a bootable SD for the LS1043ARDB

gfine1 — Thu, 24 Jun 2021 00:08:03 GMT

Similar to some other requests of same.

After my frustration with the flex-installer and flex-builder. I reverted to building using the yocto instructions posted here. I only changed the 2088 with 1043

https://source.codeaurora.org/external/qoriq/qoriq-components/yocto-sdk/about/

After fixing some minor errors in the build. But in the end it looks like I successfully have a tmp/deploy/images/ls1043ardb directory with the images below..

Here is as 'tree' of the directories in /temp/deploy/images/ls1043ardb

Now I have combed documentation from Reference manuals to Application Notes, and didn't find anything on how to create an SD from a Yocto build.

I guess I am used to the i.MX series setup.

Now how is the SD to be formatted? for u-boot? for the kernel & dtb? and for the Root File System?

And then what contents get copied to which partition?

I read somewhere else about the rcw.bin. Where does that get placed? Is it used?

The document on the link above says the ls1043ardb is supported.

I am formerly familiar with the way i.MX series works. Is there something similar for the LS1043ardb?

Cheers, Glen

Please refer to the following procedure.

Please connect SD card to your host PC

1. Please create two partitions with Linux command "fdisk", one 1G FAT16 and 2G one ext2/ext3 or with remainder of the available disk size.
# mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1
# mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdb2

2. Please deployed RCW + PBI + BL2(bl2_<boot_mode>.pbl)image to SD card as the following.
dd if=bl2_sd.pbl of=/dev/sdb bs=512 seek=8

note:/dev/sdb is SD device name.

Please deploy TF-A FIP image at 0x00800 in SD card.

dd if=fip_uboot.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=512 seek=0x800

Please deploy FMAN ucode at 0x04800 in SD card.

dd if=fsl_fman_ucode_ls1043_r1.1_106_4_18.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=512 seek=0x4800

3. Please deploy rootfs filesystem to SD card in the host PC as the following.
# mkdir /temp
# mount /dev/sdb2 /temp
# cd /temp
# cp fsl-image-networking-ls1043ardb.tar.gz .
# tar -xzvf fsl-image-networking-ls1043ardb.tar.gz
# rm fsl-image-networking-ls1043ardb.tar.gz
Please deploy Kernel Image and the dtb to the /boot folder.
# cp Image boot
# cp fsl-ls1043a-rdb-sdk.dtb boot

Configure the switch setting boot from SD card

SW3[1:8] SW4[1:8] SW5[1:8]

SD card 10110011 00100000 00100010

Plug in the SD card to the target board and power on.
Set the environment in uboot for SD boot.
=> setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootdelay=5 console=ttyS0,115200;mmcinfo;ext2load mmc 0:2 0xa0000000 /boot/Image;ext2load mmc 0:2 0xb0000000 /boot/fsl-ls1043a-rdb-sdk.dtb;booti 0xa0000000- 0xb0000000'
=> saveenv

Boot up Linux
=> boot

Hi Yipingwang,

One difference was the SD enumerates as /dev/mmcblk0 and not /dev/sdX (where X is b or c)

I had to modify any hex values to decimal as 'dd' thought 0x was a multiplier.

$ cd ~/yocto-sdk/build_ls1043ardb/tmp/deploy/images/ls1043ardb/atf/
$ sudo dd if=bl2_sd.pbl of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=512 seek=8

$ sudo mkdir ~/temp

$ sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0 ~/temp

$ sudo cp fsl-image-networking-ls1043ardb.tar.gz ~/temp/

$ cd ~/temp

$ sudo tar -xzvf fsl-image-networking-ls1043ardb.tar.gz

... [unpacked here]

$ sudo rm -xzvf fsl-image-networking-ls1043ardb.tar.gz

$ cd ~/yocto-sdk/build_ls1043ardb/tmp/deploy/images/ls1043ardb/

$ sudo cp Image ~/temp/boot

$ sudo cp fsl-ls1043a-rdb-sdk.dtb ~/temp/boot

$ sudo umount ~/temp

$ sync

My switch settings are as you mention.

I was able to get to u-boot but booting to the kernel fails.

Please pay attention to my step 1, please connect SD card your your host PC.

Please create two partitions with Linux command "fdisk", one 1G FAT16 and 2G one ext2/ext3 or with remainder of the available disk size.
# mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1
# mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdb2

Then use mkfs.ext2 to format the second partition and put rootfs filesystem and Kernel Image in this partition. In my following bootargs, I assume rootfs is in the second partition of SD card.

Re: How to create a bootable SD for the LS1043ARDB

gfine1 — Fri, 25 Jun 2021 17:49:28 GMT

Got the same error but realized it was the booti command and a small syntax error

You posted :

setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootdelay=5 console=ttyS0,115200;mmcinfo;ext2load mmc 0:2 0xa0000000 /boot/Image;ext2load mmc 0:2 0xb0000000 /boot/fsl-ls1043a-rdb-sdk.dtb;booti 0xa0000000- 0xb0000000'

The error was the missing space after the kernel address. When I added the space (after the 0xa000000) it booted properly.

Thank you for the help !!

Cheers, Glen
