How to build GoldVIP's Bootloader without SAF

[ddmiso]

I am trying to build GoldVIP's Bootloader without SAF.
I disabled the following items:
Bist, eMcem, SafetyBase, sBoot, sCheck, Rm

And I also disabled the following items:
CryptoDal -> Disable HSE Memory Partitioning
SysDal -> SystemPowerUpConfig_0->Rm_Init

After building, I uploaded it to the target board, and the initial boot was successful, but on the second boot, only the "bootloader 0x2 ComDal_Init() done." log appears.

Do you know why?

1) First Boot Log

hi,ddmiso

Thank you for contacting us.

Are you using RDB2 or RDB3? It is suggested you can refer to AN13750 to check the configuration of bootloader and IVT images.

Dear Joey_

Also, I use BSP39.0 version. The content of AN13750 document is 2022 document. Is there anything to be careful about when using it in compatibility with BSP39.0?

hi，ddmiso

Thank you for contacting us.

Usually, The AN13750 supports the Multicore Application, It is the official document. you also can refer to the AN when you use the newer BSP39.0, but you should pay attention to the Software compatibility.

Regarding your question, you can try modifying the Bootloader.c to refer the AN as shown in the following picture.

In addition, you also can use the HSE 0.2.22, It is recommended for goldvip.

Hope it can help you.

Dear Joey_z

Thanks for your reply. I was able to boot successfully.
I have one more question.
The NOR flash Memory of RDB2 board is MX25UW51245G. It booted normally with this flash, but my custom board uses MX25U6432F. This memory uses Quad SPI, so I think I need to change the Fls setting.
Can you guide me on how to set it up?

Changing memory size and device id.
There is an error in the part below Read_dopi.
