T1022: D_INIT timeout Memory may not work

hemwant — Mon, 23 Aug 2021 11:21:48 GMT

We are having a customized board with T1022 processor , which has SPI flash connected to the processor (SPI CS0) and we are trying to boot our uboot from SPI flash. The APACER DDR4 MINI is used in the card and part number of the same is 75.B93GK.G000B. The SPI flash gets successfully programmed using lauterbach tool.

The uboot gets struck at D_INIT Timeout. The uboot logs with DDR SPD debug logs enabled is attached below. I am also attaching lauterbach(t32) DDR section register dumps.

The RCW used is as follows-

# serdes protocol 0x87

Wide range of issues can cause your problem. Did you try to run DDRv tool for DDR validation? This can help to clarify if the problem happens within u-boot code or not.

What is strange among setup of DDR controller is values of DDR_SDRAM_MODE_9 and DDR_SDRAM_MODE_10 registers. These two should not be 0x0 after u-boot.

@Bulat thanks for the suggestions.

We haven't tried DDRv tool for DDR validation for now. We are arranging the same . Is there any document regarding the possible causes of D_INIT timeout ? We can refer the same in meantime.

We are having other customized boards with T1022 processor, DDR controller values of DDR_SDRAM_MODE_9 and DDR_SDRAM_MODE_10 registers is 0x0 in those boards as well and they are properly booting up with the same DDR part code.

D_INIT timeout means that DDR controller was not able to initialize the SDRAM during automatic calibration procedures. As I wrote, a wide range of issues can cause this problem. This includes incorrect schematics, incorrect layout, board level issues (like bad soldering, defects of PCB/components), incorrect DDR settings, incorrect DDR clock frequency, bad power supplies.

DDR_SDRAM_MODE_9 and DDR_SDRAM_MODE_10 registers registers define settings of SDRAM Mode Registers 4, 5 and 6 (MR4, MR5, MR6). Some bits of MR5 and MR6 must be set as per SDRAM's data sheet. For example, MR5[10]=1 enables Data Mask signal (DM), MR6[12:10] must be set to 001 for data rate of 1600MT/s. Normally u-boot automatically sets these bits, that is why I called this "strange".

We have received our DDRv tool for DDR validation . Could please share the link of latest code warrior tap software and its installation guide.

In our case there were assembly issues between PCB and DDR connector. On soldering the same DDR got initialized properly and uboot booted up.
