Screen is blank for 2 seconds between u-boot bootlogo and kernel penguin

1. Description

In Mx53 SMD, if enable u-boot boot logo, the screen will be blank for about 2 seconds between u-boot boot logo and Kernel penguin.

Below patch can shorten the blank time to less than 1 second. The patch is based on R10.3.2 u-boot and kernel.

In u-boot patch, CONFIG_FB_BASE is changed to 0x8fb00000, which is the physical address of kernel fb0.

To get the address, can printk mxcfb_resources[0].start in fixup_android_board() in kernel_imx/arch/arm/mach-mx5/mx53_smd.c. This address is fixed if pmem, fbmem and gpu_memory in u-boot command line are fixed.

4. PERCLK_ROOT requirement

There is such description in the CCM chapter of MX53 reference manual:

PERCLK_ROOT - this clock is synchronized and balanced to AHB_CLK_ROOT. For the synchronization process, peripherals clock pre-divider and post-divider should generate clock with frequency 2.5 times lower than AHB clock.

To meet this requirement, all the children clock of perclk_root should be disabled before configuring perclk_root, and enabled after configured.

If not follow this step, your kernel may hang at “Calibrating delay loop... 999.42 BogoMIPS (lpj=4997120)”.

In this kernel patch, the children of perclk_root are disabled before clk_tree_init(); then in clk_tree_init(), perclk_root is configured; and then after clk_tree_init(), pwm_clk is enabled.
