Hi Srikanth

what board used in the case: nxp i.MX6SL EVK reference board or

custom board based on EVK ? If custom board, had board passed ddr test

i.MX6/7 DDR Stress Test Tool V2.70

Had you tried to boot linux (L3.10.53) with min. configuration ?

How boot image was flashed, was used mfg tool for such purpose ?

Best regards
igor

Hi igor,

Board : iMX6SL EVK reference board

It passed the DDR test and we updated the calibration values then the u-boot was coming up and was hanging as I posted in the previous post.

Flashed using MFG tool 4.1.0.

I didn't get your question "Had you tried to boot linux (L3.10.53) with min. configuration ?" . Can you explain it.

Regards,

srikanth.

Hi igor,

If I try to flash with the MFG tool which you posted above is failing to flash at u-boot.

And I am trying to flash into eMMC as my board doesn't had SD card support.

We are not trying to build yocto images.

srikanth.

Hi srikanth

what memory used in the case: lpddr2 or ddr3 ?

Please run ddr test for custom board and udate uboot/board/freescale/mx6slevk/imximage.cfg

with new ddr coefficients found from ddr test

i.MX6/7 DDR Stress Test Tool V2.70

srikanthmediset — Wed, 09 Aug 2017 10:23:58 GMT

Hi igor,

Memory is LPDDR2

I did DDR stress test and updated in the cfg file then only u-boot is coming upto DRAM and hanging previously u-boot itself not coming up.

srikanth.

Hi srikanth

to use mfg tools with custom board it is necessary to rebuild

mfg tools firmware (files in firmware folder) with updated

uboot/board/freescale/mx6slevk/imximage.cfg and changes for memory size

(#define PHYS_SDRAM_SIZE in uboot/include/configs/mx6slevk.h), please follow attached

Yocto Guide sect.6.2 The Manufacturing Tool, MFGTool.

Hi igor,

RAM size is alredy updated in the file you mentioned above. If you observe the log there is one line Reset cause: POR what this one actually meant does this causing any problem.

Hi srikanth
