[U-boot] Implementing changes in SD interface | Custom Sabreauto based board

soorajs — Wed, 27 Dec 2017 06:34:08 GMT

Difference in SD-card interference between Sabreauto and our custom board [Vdash]

Sabreauto SD interference

In Sabreauto reference board, NANDF_CS2 is using as the “Card detect” pin of SD card.
Vdash SD Interference

In our design, we are using micro SD card. In micro-SD “Card Detect” pin is multiplexed with DAT3 pin of SD card.

REQUIRED CHANGES
1. Card Detect function need to remove from the program, or set the SD3_DAT3 pin initially as Card detect and then as DATA3 of SD card interface.
2. Set the SD interface program for single bit communication
3. Confirm that GPIO_2 pin is in logic high state.
Here is the diff of changes i made to "board/freescale/mx6qsabreauto/mx6qsabreauto.c" https://pastebin.com/raw/5bvyxmSN , Please ignore changes to usdhc2_pads its for emmc interference . After this change the Error
"MMC: no card present"
vanished . Now new error
mmc_init: -110 timeout: 1456.
Now i had to make this change https://pastebin.com/raw/YYGfDaaV in "drivers/mmc/mmc.c" to make it go away, i noticed

cmd.cmdidx = SD_CMD_APP_SD_STATUS;

was causing the last error mmc_init: -110 SD_CMD_APP_SD_STATUS value is 13.

Our SD-card interference doesn't require voltage switching its using 3.3v always

I flashed u-boot.imx binary to SD-card using Linux machine

sudo dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=512 seek=2 && sync

and in boot configuration i select SD-card , Internal Boot and Boot Configuration and now i do not get u-boot on booting the boot , the Kermit console is completely blank.

On using mgftool the log https://pastebin.com/raw/7MUaH7NX , it surely loads u-boot , kernel, ramdisk and dtb but after this its not able to connect SD-card to pc in mass storage mode .

Is there something iam missing ?

Hi Sooraj

sd3 does not require cd signal for boot according to Table 8-17. SD/MMC IOMUX pin configuration

i.MX6DQ Reference Manual
http://cache.nxp.com/files/soft_dev_tools/doc/support_info/iMX6DQRM.pdf

Supported linux "cd" options are described in sect.32.2.3 Devicetree Binding

attached Linux Manual.

Okay Thanks , but then why was uboot.imx not boot when i dd to sdcard ,why is mfgtool not able to flash to sdcard .
Is my uboot working fine ? i just have to edit device tree now ?
This change https://pastebin.com/raw/YYGfDaaV will not cause future issues ? , any chance i could fix this ?
Is it possible to perform mmc write from uboot console ? i mean to write uboot to sdcard ? or kernel to sdcard?
Note mmc dev 1 is sdcard , 0x12000000 is where i load kernel using kermit .

had you run ddr test on board

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

and modified uboot dcd header ( ..board/freescale//mx6qsabreauto/*.cfg file)

with new calibration settings found from test

Hello Igor ,

Thanks for pointing me to the right direction https://hastebin.com/raw/zatiyadawu major changes are to ( Write leveling calibration, Read DQS Gating calibration, Read calibration, Write calibration). Its now booting from sdcard .
It doesn't work on completely power off the board / Unplug and reinsert the SD-card and try reset
But it only work when i do these steps .
* power on the board and load u-boot.imx to Ram using imx_usb_loader
i now see an error

Card did not respond to voltage select!
mmc_init: -95, time 47

* Unplug and reinsert the SD-card now try reset the board the u-boot from SD-card will be loaded .

Any idea why u-boot not load when power off the board / remove SD-card and try reset .
Any idea why error Card did not respond to voltage select!
Our SD-card interference doesn't require voltage switching its using 3.3v always

Hi Sooraj

one can follow sect.4.3.4 Copying a bootloader image attached Linux Guide.

imx_usb_loader is not used in nxp bsps and issues with it can be posted on

meta-fsl-arm mailing list, so that someone familiar with it could try to assist you.

Hello Igor ,
i followed sect.4.3.4 Copying a bootloader image as per that document but still uboot would not boot untill i peform the same steps i do on last post its same if i use sb_loader to load u-boot to ram. Voltage selection needs to be implemented on your platform ? could this be due to sd3_vselect ? Does SD3.0 require 1.8 V for signal voltage .

Hi Sooraj

if SD-card interference doesn't require voltage switching and always using 3.3v
one can follow Sabre-SD design (and its uboot image), spf-27392 p.6

Schematics (1)
i.MX6_SABRE_SDP_DESIGNFILES

SABRE Platform for Smart Devices|NXP

Voltage selection during boot is described in sect.8.5.3.3 SD, eSD, and SDXC

i.MX6DQ Reference Manual

http://www.nxp.com/docs/en/reference-manual/IMX6DQRM.pdf

SD ver.3.0 cards may use _vselect, please try ver.2.0 sd cards.

Hello Igor,

The issue was resolved it was a design flaw ,
here is where iam stuck now .
