[Technical Issue] kernel hangs at Galcore and VPU Issue

elliottyang — Thu, 18 Sep 2014 06:53:40 GMT

Hi All

We are running at i.MX6 Dual Lite soc and our own board, the linux kernel version is 3.10.17(yocto).

When we start up the system, it would stop.

……

rtl8192cu: Board Type 0

rtlwifi: rx_max_size 15360, rx_urb_num 8, in_ep 1

rtl8192cu: Loading firmware rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw.bin

Galcore version 4.6.9.9754 <-----------stop at here

In order to fix the problem, I found an article that can fix my problem,

https://community.freescale.com/message/424352#424352

They changed in file imx6qdl-sabresd.dtsi as follows.

&cpu0 {

arm-supply = <&reg_arm>;

soc-supply = <&reg_soc>;

pu-supply = <&reg_pu>; /* use pu_dummy if VDDSOC share with VDDPU */

};

&gpc {

fsl,ldo-bypass = <0>; /* use ldo-bypass, u-boot will check it and configure */

fsl,wdog-reset = <1>; /* watchdog select of reset source */

pu-supply = <&reg_pu>; /* ldo-bypass:use pu_dummy if VDDSOC share with VDDPU */

};

&gpu {

pu-supply = <&reg_pu>; /* ldo-bypass:use pu_dummy if VDDSOC share with VDDPU */

};

&vpu {

pu-supply = <&reg_pu>; /* ldo-bypass:use pu_dummy if VDDSOC share with VDDPU */

};

But now, we found another issue, we couldn’t use GStreamer to streaming video via VPU codec.(If I don’t use VPU codec, GStreamer is work well.)

Here is my command:

gst-launch-0.10 mfw_v4lsrc ! video/x-raw-yuv,width=640,height=480 ! vpuenc codec=6 ! rtph264pay ! udpsink host=192.168.8.123 port=5000

and it’s the error massage:

MFW_GST_V4LSRC_PLUGIN 3.0.11 build on Aug 20 2014 13:45:43.

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...

ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.

Setting pipeline to NULL ...

Freeing pipeline ...

My question is what’s the different about “pu_dummy” and “reg_pu” ?

Does anyone has any idea about this issue?

BTW, if we modify the device tree as the article, I can’t get 1.2V at VDDPU, it’s 0.095V.

Thanks a lot,

Hi Elliot,

From, imx6qdl-sabresd.dtsi:

&vpu { pu-supply = <&pu_dummy>; /* ldo-bypass:use pu_dummy if VDDSOC share with VDDPU */ };

The comment above seems to indicate that if you are using LDO-bypass mode you would set this to pu-dummy. And if you are bypassing the LDO you need to set to to reg_pu (which is what I think you need to do on your board to get the VPU initialized properly).

Hope it helps

Try booting the imx6dl-sabresd-ldo.dtb.

You guys are all right.

I try to rename imx6dl-sabresd-ldo.dtb to imx6dl-sabresd.dtb and boot again, it's works!

Thanks a lot,

Elliott

Hi Elliott Ynag,

I have the same question, what is the real cause?

Hi Pei xiuhui

I really don't know what's going on there, I used imx6dl-sabresd-ldo.dtb to instead of imx6dl-sabresd.dtb, and it works fine.

hello Elliott ynag,

thanks for sharing this good post, i can now run android5.0 sabreSD BSP on sabreLite board.

i'm still using imx6q-sabresd.dts , but changed some pu-supply as you did above.

the key changes is replace pu_dummy with pu_reg, and wdog-rese parameter, after doing this, kernel 3.10 is run, and i uncommented two line in init.rc

on property:ro.debuggable=1

start console

i can now getting busybox prompt shell,
