This article describes how to create a tiny rootfs based on BusyBox.   Test platform: i.MX 95 19x19 LPDDR5 EVK. The attached layer can be used with other platforms as well. Software: Linux BSP 6.12.34-2.1.0 Boot device: SD card   This article provides a custom meta-tiny-rootfs layer, to simplify the enablement. The layer: creates a custom distribution based on Poky, with no extra features creates a custom image based on BusyBox that only starts a terminal removes most of the machine features uses musl, instead of glibc   Using the default DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland and core-image-minimal, the rootfs size is 800MB. Using the custom DISTRO=tiny-rootfs and core-image-tiny, the rootfs size reduces to 2.6MB.   How to? 1. Prepare the Yocto environment according to Section 3, 4, 5 in i.MX Yocto Project User's Guide. In the next commands, we'll assume the Yocto directory is imx-yocto-bsp, and the build directory is build. 2. Configure the build directory: cd ~/imx-yocto-bsp/ DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland MACHINE=imx95-19x19-lpddr5-evk source ./imx-setup-release.sh -b build Note: The imx-setup-release.sh script accepts only Wayland distributions. We'll set the custom distro at the next step. 3. Set the custom distro. In the build directory, run: echo 'DISTRO = "tiny-rootfs"' >> conf/local.conf 4. Download the meta-tiny-rootfs archive, and extract it into the ~/imx-yocto-bsp/sources directory. cd ~/imx-yocto-bsp/sources tar -xvf meta-tiny-rootfs.tar.gz 5. Add the meta-tiny-rootfs layer to BBLAYERS: cd ~/imx-yocto-bsp/build bitbake-layers add-layer ../sources/meta-tiny-rootfs 6. Build the core-image-tiny image. bitbake core-image-tiny 7. Write the image on an SD card, and boot. You should be able to see a similar log: [ 6.183401] Run /sbin/init as init process init started: BusyBox v1.37.0 () starting pid 163, tty '': '/bin/mount -t proc proc /proc' starting pid 164, tty '': '/bin/mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys' starting pid 165, tty '': '/bin/mount -t devtmpfs devtmpfs /dev' mount: mounting devtmpfs on /dev failed: Resource busy starting pid 166, tty '': '/bin/mount -o remount,rw /' [ 6.246037] EXT4-fs (mmcblk1p2): re-mounted a5abac39-6c11-419f-97ef-86532e2616ad. starting pid 167, tty '': '/bin/mkdir -p /dev/pts' starting pid 168, tty '': '/bin/mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts' starting pid 169, tty '': '/bin/mount -a' starting pid 170, tty '': '/sbin/swapon -a' starting pid 176, tty '': '/etc/init.d/rcS' starting pid 177, tty '/dev/ttyLP0': '/usr/sbin/ttyrun ttyLP0 /sbin/getty 115200 ttyLP0' Tiny Rootfs Operating System 1.0.0 imx95-19x19-lpddr5-evk /dev/ttyLP0 imx95-19x19-lpddr5-evk login:   How to add additional features?  If you want to add additional features to DISTRO_FEATURES, MACHINE_FEATURES, or IMAGE_FEATURES, please use the DISTRO_TINY_FEATURES, MACHINE_TINY_FEATURES and IMAGE_TINY_FEATURES variables. For example, to add bluetooth to MACHINE_FEATURES, add the following line in conf/local.conf. MACHINE_TINY_FEATURES = "bluetooth"   Note: If you need to add a package that requires the full libc (instead of musl), add the following in conf/local.conf: TCLIBC = "glibc"   These optimizations were inspired by this presentation: Honey, I shrunk the rootfs!

Some customer want to measure DSM power and do some customize in their own board. We supply the the AN13917 to customer already. But some customer also have some questions about it , so here give more details and test for it for customer will more clearly understand and use it. 1 i.MX 93 power mode overview The i.MX 93 supports the following power modes: Run mode: In this mode, the Cortex-A55 CPU is active and running. Some portions can be shut off for power saving. Low-power run mode: This mode is defined as a Low-power run mode with all external power rails on. In this mode, all unnecessary power domains (MIX) can be off. The AONMIX and internal modules, such as OSC24M/PLL, are an exception in this mode. The Cortex CPU in AONMIX handles all the computing and data processing. Cortex-A55 is powered down and DRAM can be in self-refresh/retention mode. Idle mode: This mode is defined as one that a CPU can enter automatically when no threads are engaged, and no high-speed devices are in use. CPU can be put into a power-gated state, but with L3 data retained, DRAM, and bus clocks are reduced. Most of the internal logic is clock-gated; yet is still powered. In this mode, all the external power from PMIC remains the same, and most IPs remain in their state. Therefore, the interrupt response in this mode is quick compared to the Run mode. Suspend mode: This mode is defined as the most power-saving mode since it shuts off all the clocks and all the unnecessary power supplies. In this mode, the Cortex-A55 CPU is fully power gated, all internal digital logic, and the analog circuits that can be powered down are off, and all PHYs are power gated. VDD_SOC(and related digital supply) voltage is reduced to the "Suspend mode" voltage. Compared to Idle, this mode takes a longer time to exit, but it also uses far less energy. BBSM mode: This mode is also called RTC mode. In this mode, to keep RTC and BBSM logic alive, only the power for the BBSM domain remains on. Off mode: In this mode, all power rails are off. 2 Measure the power consumption of the system in the DSM( Deep Sleep Mode) The use case is based on the Suspend mode, which implies the following: CA55 cluster is OFF • MEDIAMIX is OFF • NICMIX is OFF • WAKEUPMIX is OFF • PLL is OFF • 24 M OSC is OFF PMIC is in STBY mode Download the demo images from website: Download the AN13917SW.zip file, upzip it. Copy the uuu and imx93-11x11-evk-dsm.dtb to demo images path. Download the images to board: .\uuu.exe -b emmc_all .\ imx-boot-imx93-11x11-lpddr4x-evk-sd.bin-flash_singleboot  .\imx-image-full-imx93evk.wic To measure the power consumption of the system in the DSM, the steps are as follows: Boot the Linux image with imx93-11x11-evk-DSM.dtb. System boot up with the default dtb, when system boot up change it to the imx93-11x11-evk-DSM.dtb, using the following commends: setenv fdtfile imx93-11x11-evk-dsm.dtb saveenv boot Rita_Wang_0-1763436433529.png To put the system into the Suspend (Deep sleep) mode, run the following command: echo mem > /sys/power/state Measure the power and record the results.

As different chips may show slight differences in static power consumption(SS TT FF) due to process corner variations.  

LSIO_GPIO0_IO0x toggling on i.MX8QM Issue customer met: Customer met LSIO_GPIO0_IO0x not toggling on i.MX8QM, they are working through the software on their board, part of that involves getting a few GPIO pins working. They have been using several GPIO pins for a while now, we have some simple toggles and some others where we bit bang i2c, all of those have worked fine. However, They have not been able to get 3 pins to either read or set successfully at all: LSIO_GPIO0_IO00 (SIM0_CLK) LSIO_GPIO0_IO01 (SIM0_RST) LSIO_GPIO0_IO02 (SIM0_IO) 1\ Reproduce on our i.MX8QM EVK board  a. Check the hardware connection Check the LSIO_GPIO0_IO00 (SIM0_CLK), LSIO_GPIO0_IO01 (SIM0_RST) and LSIO_GPIO0_IO02 (SIM0_IO) connection in our i.MX8QM EVK board. In the default design in NXP i.MX8QM EVK board, the pins SIM0_CLK, SIM0_RST and SIM0_IO connect to the SIM CARD on the base board.

Test on the J45 pins 3,5,6. Rita_Wang_6-1763386260714.png   Test the SIM_CLK as an example: Test commands in Linux echo 480 > /sys/class/gpio/export echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio480/direction #output high echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio480/value #measure the PINs #output low echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio480/value #measure the PINs Found these pins can not toggling well. 2\ Go next further test and consideration Foud the SCU_GPIO0_00, SCU_GPIO0_01, SCU_GPIO0_02 are also configurate as GPIO function in the SCFW,  in the default setting for the SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_00is the function GPIO0_00 , and when setting the SIM0_CLK to GPIO0_00 function then the GPIO0_00 can not work normally. So if setting the SIM0_CLK as GPIO0_00 function, then we need to set the SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_00 this PIN to others function, so that no conflict of them. Even no use the pin SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_00 in hardware, we also need to set them to others function to avoid the conflict. SCU_GPIO Pins mux: SCU_GPIO0_00 (SCU_GPIO0_00) Rita_Wang_7-1763386260735.png   SCU_GPIO0_01 (SCU_GPIO0_01) Rita_Wang_8-1763386260755.png   SCU_GPIO0_02 (SCU_GPIO0_02)       Rita_Wang_9-1763386260774.png   Tested the PINs "SIM0_CLK, SIM0_IO, SIM0_RST" on iMX8QM MEK with base board. All of them works fine.  The key points are already listed. VDD_SIM0 power should be supplied (It is 3.3V on MEK from PF8100 LDO) Rita_Wang_10-1763386260858.png   Linux dts should set them to GPIO0 functions:     IMX8QM_SIM0_CLK_LSIO_GPIO0_IO00 0xc0000021     IMX8QM_SIM0_RST_LSIO_GPIO0_IO01 0xc2000021     IMX8QM_SIM0_IO_LSIO_GPIO0_IO02 0xc0000021 The default IOMUX for PINs SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_00, SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_01, SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_02 should be changed from 0 to others.  Test on MEK, we used followed codes in SCFW board_init():     else if (phase == BOOT_PHASE_FINAL_INIT)     {         /* Configure SNVS button for rising edge */         SNVS_ConfigButton(SNVS_DRV_BTN_CONFIG_RISINGEDGE, SC_TRUE);           /* Init PMIC if not already done */         pmic_init();         pad_force_mux(SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_00, 2,             SC_PAD_CONFIG_NORMAL, SC_PAD_ISO_OFF);         pad_force_mux(SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_01, 2,             SC_PAD_CONFIG_NORMAL, SC_PAD_ISO_OFF);         pad_force_mux(SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_02, 2,             SC_PAD_CONFIG_NORMAL, SC_PAD_ISO_OFF);     }  Note: In SCFW, should also set SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_00, SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_01, SC_P_SCU_GPIO0_02 to other functions, because they are set to GPIO0_0x function default, if two PINs set to the same functions, such as SIM0_CLK_DMA pin and SCU_GPIO0_00 pin are set to GPIO0_00 together, the function will not work correctly.   Test commands in LInux: echo 480 > /sys/class/gpio/export echo 481 > /sys/class/gpio/export echo 482 > /sys/class/gpio/export echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio480/direction echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio481/direction echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio482/direction #output high echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio480/value echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio481/value echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio482/value #measure the PINs, they are correct high  ( 3V ) #output low echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio480/value echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio481/value echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio482/value #measure the PINs, they are correct low ( 0V ) The test result is based on real measurement on iMX8QM MEK.  Rita_Wang_11-1763386260939.jpeg   Note: 1\In customer's side If still not work, To confirm the issue, please suggest customer build SCFW with parameter "-m", then use followed commands to dump the IOMUX registers: md 0x41F80000 1 md 0x41F80040 1 md 0x41F80080 1 md 0x41F82140 1 md 0x41F82180 1 md 0x41F83000 1   The "md" command should run from SCFW debug UART, not linux/uboot UART. 2\Make sure the hardware in customer's side VDD_SIM0 power should be supplied .    

NETC presents itself as a multi-function PCIe Root Complex Integrated Endpoint (RCiEP) for easy software discovery of peripheral functions. As such, it contains multiple PCIe functions. PCIe RCiEP allows for easy software integration into OSes, which support PCIe but can be easily integrated as a simple platform device for RTOSes or bare metal implementations which do not support it. Configuration and control of ENETC(s) is implemented using a combination of registers and a command message interface implemented using descriptor rings in memory. Key goal of the DPDK is to provide a simple, complete framework for fast packet processing in data plane applications. Using the APIs provided as part of the framework, applications can leverage the capabilities of underlying network infrastructure. DPDK been prominent software in user space for networking applications pushes for eNetc driver to be written in user space. This document introduces overview of the NXP ENETC and how its driver is implemented and integrated into the DPDK. DPDK eNetc Driver support features Multi-queue supported, Packet type parsing, promisc, MAC exact filter table filtering, VLAN exact filter table filtering, Link status interrupt, Rx checksum offload, basic stats.

In this blog, we are going to discuss how we can configure iMX95EVK as PCIe Endpoint and test it using a RC which will be iMX8MM.

Hey everyone! With the iMX8MM EVK, you also get an IR receiver LED interfaced with one of the GPIOs. Through this article today, I will demonstrate how to enable Infrared Receiver on the iMX8MM EVK so that data sent from the IR transmitter LEDs can be received and decoded on the iMX8MM EVK. Hardware used : iMX8MM EVK - i.MX 8M Mini Evaluation Kit | NXP Semiconductors Arduino Uno board IR TX module Arduino interfaced with IR TX will send IR messages to iMX8MM interfaced with IR RX LED Hardware connections: IR TX Module         <---->          Arduino Uno GND                          -                     GND 3.3V                          -                     3.3V DAT                           -                     D3 IR transmitter LED connected to Arduino Uno -- Kernel configurations needed: Linux Kernel Configurations Copy the kernel 'Image' built with the above changes and the IR decoder modules for the protocol you want to decode. All the ko modules are present i.e ir-rc5-decoder.ko for rc5 IR decoding in this folder after building: LIRC drivers Boot linux with the default dtb[imx8mm-evk.dtb] and the newly copied kernel 'Image' that you uploaded on the board.   At boot-up rc_register_device is called from drivers/media/rc/rc-main.c. A /dev/lirc0 node will also be created as a result of in-built driver loading. You can verify this by executing: lirc device node   On iM8MM, The IR receiver is connected to GPIO1_13. drivers/media/rc/gpio-ir-recv.c is responsible to configure this GPIO using the dts entry present in  arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mm-evk.dtsi   Device tree changes gpio_ir_recv_probe will be called from drivers/media/rc/gpio-ir-recv.c.   At linux prompt, you can verify the gpio configuration using sysfs: IR GPIO Now insert the NEC and RC5 decoder modules. This gives the kernel ability to be able to decode the   NEC and RC5 IR protocols. LIRC Decoder Next, we need a program that utilizes the decoder driver to start decoding the IR signals coming onto the IR Receiver of iMX8MM EVK.   Some example invocations of the user-space binary we have built for the above purpose: RC5 Decoder RC6 Decoder NEC Decoder   ir_recv accepts 2 arguments:- 1st argument - protocol to enable 2nd argument - the remote-control device created in the /sys/class/rc example - /sys/class/rc/rc0 Note - Not to be confused with the protocols rc5 or rc6. The 2nd argument is not the name of the protocol ir_recv utility that we have built will open the /dev/lirc0 device and make an ioctl call LIRC_SET_REC_MODE to set the LIRC driver in Recording mode. These ioctls are handled in drivers/media/rc/lirc_dev.c in the kernel source code. So that whenever you run the ir_recv binary, it polls for the IR protocol scan code and prints it if successfully decoded. Attaching the ir_recv executable and the source code with this article for you to test and tweak. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions. I would be happy to indulge. That's all I have for today. Thank you for your time!  

This article describes how to enable the GPIO support in SPL for i.MX 93 and how to use the associated library. Available GPIO banks Bank Registers' Base Address GPIO1 0x47400000 GPIO2 0x43810000 GPIO3 0x43820000 GPIO4 0x43830000   Software Tests performed using the LF6.12.20-2.0.0 BSP, but should work similarly in other versions.   Enable the GPIO support in SPL Enable the CONFIG_SPL_GPIO through menuconfig. Configure the GPIO pin Make sure the chosen GPIO pin is not used by any other peripheral, by checking U-Boot's device tree (example: imx93-11x11-evk.dts and its included files). If used, disable the conflicting peripheral in the device tree. To identify the exact macro associated to the GPIO functionality, please check the arch/arm/dts/imx93-pinfunc.h file.  Example 1: Use an available GPIO pin (e.g. GPIO2_IO05) This pin is not used by other peripheral, so there is nothing to disable.  To use the pin with the GPIO functionality, the following pin muxing must be added in the iomux node of the imx93-11x11-evk.dts file (located in dts/upstream/src/arm64/freescale/😞 😞 pinctrl_hog: hoggrp { fsl,pins = < MX93_PAD_GPIO_IO05__GPIO2_IO05 0x51e >; }; Note: 0x51e represents the value you want in the PAD register (SW_PAD_CTL_PAD_GPIO_IO05). You may configure it as you want.  Example 2: Use the XSPI1_TXC pin as GPIO (GPIO1_IO12) In our BSP, by default, this pin is used by the SAI1 peripheral. To use this pin as GPIO, SAI1 must be disabled in device tree. &sai1 { status = "disabled"; }; To use the XSPI1_TXC pin with the GPIO functionality, the following pin muxing must be added in the iomux node of the imx93-11x11-evk.dts file (located in dts/upstream/src/arm64/freescale/😞😞 pinctrl_hog: hoggrp { fsl,pins = < MX93_PAD_SAI1_TXC__GPIO1_IO12 0x51e >; }; Include the correct header files In the file you want to use the GPIO, include the following headers: #include <asm/arch-mx7ulp/gpio.h> #include <asm-generic/gpio.h> Define the GPIO To define the GPIO's handle, use the IMX_GPIO_NR(bank, index) macro. index = The pin number within the bank. bank = The GPIO bank number, mapped as follows (due to the way they are placed in memory): GPIO Bank bank value for IMX_GPIO_NR GPIO1 4 GPIO2 1 GPIO3 2 GPIO4 3 Example 1: Compute the handle for GPIO2_IO05 #define TIMED_GPIO IMX_GPIO_NR(1, 5) Example 2: Compute the handle for XSPI1_TXC (GPIO1_IO12) #define TIMED_GPIO IMX_GPIO_NR(4, 12)   Read the GPIO pin gpio_request(TIMED_GPIO, "timed_gpio"); gpio_direction_input(TIMED_GPIO); int val = gpio_get_value(TIMED_GPIO); printf("GPIO value is %d\n", val);   Write the GPIO pin gpio_request(TIMED_GPIO, "timed_gpio"); // set the pin as output and make it high gpio_direction_output(TIMED_GPIO, 1);   The driver used is drivers/gpio/gpio-uclass.c.

As we haven't provided a guide with steps that implement the Linux OS encryption and signature for i.MX9x products so far. So, the document provides the steps for that. For details related to how to encrypt and sign a bootloader image, please have a reference to This Guide 

When working with an evaluation kit you will be provided with a System Controller Firmware (SCFW) binary included in your BSP. This scfw binary has been tailored for that specific board and you might need to modify some board dependencies to fit your specific hardware. This document aims to provide an overview on the SCFW porting process, for detailed information please refer to the System Controller Porting guide (sc_fw_port.pdf).   Setting up the system The SCFW is built on a Linux host. The steps to set-up your system are the following: Download the GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain: 6-2017-q2-update June 28, 2017 from the ARM website: Select a directory to untar the file unto, for instance: mkdir ~/gcc_toolchain cp ~/Downloads/gcc-arm-none-eabi-6-2017-q2-update-linux.tar.bz2 ~/gcc_toolchain/ cd ~/gcc_toolchain/ tar xvjf gcc-arm-none-eabi-6-2017-q2-update-linux.tar.bz2‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   Set TOOLS environment variable to the directory containing the tool chain, "~/gcc_toolchain" on the example above, .bash_profile can also be modified to export this environment variable: export TOOLS=~/gcc_toolchain/ srec_cat is also necessary for the build, this is usually contained in the srecord package, on ubuntu you can do: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install srecord Now you can change to the porting kit directory (e.g. scfw_export_mx8qm) and build the scfw. System Controller Firmware Porting kit  The SCFW porting kit contains source files and object files that will allow you to modify the SCFW to work with your board. You can get the latest System Controller Firmware Porting kit from the i.MX Software and development webpage: Once you obtain the porting kit untar it: tar xvzf imx-scfw-porting-kit-1.1.tar.gz‍ You will see the following file structure: The porting kit is contained under packages, the README contains the instructions to extract the porting kit, basically: cd packages/ chmod a+x imx-scfw-porting-kit-1.1.bin ./imx-scfw-porting-kit-1.1.bin‍‍‍ You will be prompted to accept an End User License Agreement: Once you accept the agreement the porting kit will be extracted in a new folder, the folder structure is as follows: All documentation regarding SCFW is under doc/pdf or in html format if preferred, it is recommended to go over sc_fw_port.pdf. The porting kits for different SoC variants (QM A0, QM B0 and QXP B0) are under src packaged as tar.gz, all other files are SCFW libraries for different software packages, such as Linux, QNX, FreeRTOS, U-boot, ARM Trusted Firmware, etc...   If you will be working with several SoC variants (working with both QXP and QM) it is recommended to extract all porting kits into a single directory, that way you will be able to build for any variant from this directory, the command to do this is: cd imx-scfw-porting-kit-1.1/ cd src/ find scfw_export_mx8*.gz -exec tar --strip-components 1 --one-top-level=scfw_export_mx8 -xzvf {} \;‍‍‍ A scfw_export_mx8 folder will be created, from here you will be able to build SCFW for any supported variant. Or you can just extract the package for the variant you are interested on and use that. cd scfw_export_mx8/‍ All the build folders contain the results of building the SCFW and platform is where the source of the SCFW is stored.   All the code that is specific to a board configuration is under "platform/board/mx8<derivative>_<board_name>" where derivative is the i.MX8 silicon family such as QXP or QM, and board name is the name of the board the SCFW package is for. The first step in porting the SCFW to your board is to create a folder for your i.MX8 derivative and board, you can take one of the available board examples and rename the folder, that will provide you a project to get started with, for instance: cp -r platform/board/mx8qm_val/ platform/board/mx8qm_myBoard/‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The board in this example will be called "myBoard" and it is for an i.MX8QM B0 device. To build a SCFW for this board simply call: make qm R=B0 B=myBoard‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ If the target is an i.MX8QXP simply take a board based on this device and change the call to "make qx". Additional information such as build options and in detailed boot information can be found in the SCFW porting guide (sc_fw_port.pdf), chapter 2 of this document is a great introduction to the porting process.   Overview and useful information Configuring the PMIC overview and board.c common modifications The main file that needs to be altered (if not the only) is the "board.c" file, it is located at "platform/board/mx8X_board/". The board.c file contains most of the board related information such as SCU UART ports, PMIC initialization routines, PMIC temperature alarms settings and you can also modify it to configure LDOs voltages and communicate with the PMIC in general. All functions in the board.c file are executed by the SCU itself and this gives you access to the I2C interface that is used to communicate with the PMIC. SoC resources that are powered by an external supply (PMIC LDO for instace) such as AP cores and GPUs are powered off/on by board_set_power_mode, the mapping of the resource to an specific PMIC supply happens in board_get_pmic_info, for instance in our i.MX8QM validation board using the A53 subsystem is powered by SW2 of the third PMIC (PMIC_2_ADDR addresses start at PMIC_0) on the PF100 PMIC card and by SW5 of the first PMIC (PMIC_0_ADDR) on the PF8100 PMIC card. case SC_SUBSYS_A53: pmic_init(); if (pmic_card == PF100) { pmic_id[0] = PMIC_2_ADDR; pmic_reg[0] = SW2; *num_regs = 1; } else {/* PF8100_dual Card */ pmic_id[0] = PMIC_0_ADDR; pmic_reg[0] = PF8100_SW5; *num_regs = 1; } break; ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The voltages of SoC resources that are powered by an external supply (AP cores, GPUs, etc...) are managed by board_set_voltage in the board.c file. The mapping of resource to power supply occurs in board_get_pmic_info as in the example above. Eight "board resources" (SC_R_BOARD_R0, ... SC_R_BOARD_R7) are available, these resources allow you to define components in your board that the SCU can manage, for instance a sensor on your board powered by one of the PMIC LDOs can be mapped to a board resource and the board.c file can be modified to power on/off the sensor as well as modifying its voltage. Modifying the voltage on a board resource can be either be done by modifying the voltage at board_trans_resource_power (see below) or if the voltage needs to change at run time the function board_set_control can be modified to change the voltage whenever a miscellaneous call (more details in the Miscellaneous Service 101) is made on that resource. For instance to change the voltage on SC_R_BOARD_R7 you would have the following case to board_set_control: case SC_R_BOARD_R7: if (ctrl == SC_C_VOLTAGE) { /* Example only PMIC_X_ADDR and PMIC_SUPPLY need to match an actual device */ pmic_interface.pmic_set_voltage(PMIC_X_ADDR, PMIC_SUPPLY, val, step); } else return SC_ERR_PARM; break;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The case above will be executed by the SCU every time the application calls the function below: sc_misc_set_control( ipc, SC_R_BOARD_R7, SC_C_VOLTAGE, voltage_val);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Powering on/off a board resource happens at board_trans_resource_power in the board.c file. For instance in NXP's validation board the PTN5150 on the board is managed through a board resource 0, and the power on/off is managed as follows: case BRD_R_BOARD_R0 : /* PTN5150 (use SC_R_BOARD_R0) */ if (pmic_ver.device_id == PF100_DEV_ID) { if (to_mode > SC_PM_PW_MODE_OFF) { pmic_interface.pmic_set_voltage(PMIC_2_ADDR, VGEN6, 3300, SW_RUN_MODE); pmic_interface.pmic_set_mode(PMIC_2_ADDR, VGEN6, VGEN_MODE_ON); } else { pmic_interface.pmic_set_mode(PMIC_2_ADDR, VGEN6, VGEN_MODE_OFF); } } else {/* PF8100_dual Card */ if (to_mode > SC_PM_PW_MODE_OFF) { pmic_interface.pmic_set_voltage(PMIC_1_ADDR, PF8100_LDO1, 3300, REG_RUN_MODE); pmic_interface.pmic_set_mode(PMIC_1_ADDR, PF8100_LDO1, RUN_EN_STBY_EN); } else { pmic_interface.pmic_set_mode(PMIC_1_ADDR, PF8100_LDO1, RUN_OFF_STBY_OFF); } } break;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Whenever the function below is called from the application side the SCU will execute the code above: sc_pm_set_resource_power_mode(ipc, SC_R_BOARD_R0, SC_PM_PW_MODE_ON/OFF);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ board_config_sc is used to mark resources that the SCU needs, such as the I2C module and pads used to communicate with the PMIC, any resource needed by the board.c functions to work should be marked in this function as not movable, for instance to keep the SCU I2C module the following line is added: rm_set_resource_movable(pt_sc, SC_R_SC_I2C, SC_R_SC_I2C, false);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The following pads are part of the SCU and the application will not be able to access them: - SC_P_SCU_PMIC_MEMC_ON - SC_P_SCU_WDOG_OUT - SC_P_PMIC_EARLY_WARNING - SC_P_PMIC_INT_B - SC_P_SCU_BOOT_MODE0 through SC_P_SCU_BOOT_MODE5 board_system_config is where early resource management occurs, this function is only called when the alt_config flag is set in the image, and it can create partitions and allocate resources to it. More details are found in the resource management service 101. board_get_pcie_clk_src defines the clock that the PCIe uses, it can be either BOARD_PCIE_PLL_EXTERNAL or BOARD_PCIE_PLL_INTERNAL. board_print is very useful to debug your changes the syntax is as follows: board_print(3, "Debug printout %d\n", val);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Where the first parameter is the Debug Level and from there on it works as a standard printf. The output will only be visible on the SCU debug output whenever the SCU is built with the corresponding debug level, in the case above the SCFW needs to be built as follows in order to see the output: make qm B=myBoard‍‍‍‍ DL=3 or higher (debug level goes from 0 to 5)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   Usage examples The following utility shows how to make System Controller Firmware requests and provides a way to make such requests through command line interface on both QNX and Linux System Controller Firmware Command Line Utility for Linux and QNX   System Controller Firmware 101

Set bit (16) to 1 to trigger.   DENALI CTL 166 [PERIPHERAL MRR - DATA[31:0]] Data and chip returned from memory mode register read requested by the READ MODEREG parameter. Bits (7:0) indicate the read data and bits (15:8) indicate the chip. READ-ONLY   2. Test result :         Type the below command: mrr <chip_select MR_register>  Like the below picture, when type the mrr 0 c, it means the chip select is 1 and the MR register is MR12, then the value of MR12 register can be output , is 0x1c.   pengyong_zhang_1-1761115918403.png   Note : When read the MR register, must make sure the register has read right. Because most of MR register only have write right. you can check about it on JDEC spec document.   If you want to get the test binary file, please contact to me, i will send it to you.

i.MX8MP and i.MX95 both support USB3.0. In EVK board, USB download pin is USB3.0 with Type-C.  While in other boards, they may delete CC logic design PTN5110, or use USB2.0 signals instead. This document describes how to modify U-Boot to support a design without PTN5110 when using the uuu tool to download.
