How can i set i.mx6 solo with mfgtool ?

[hanseunglee]

Hello.

I was test i.mx6DL and i.mx6Q board.

Now, i will test use i.mx6SOLO but i can't write use MFGtool . Just message "No Device Connected".

please, view my set and reply.

My configure set below.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

boot mode sw set  01000010(sd) or 11010110 (emmc).

cfg.ini below

[profiles]

chip = MX6DL Linux Update

[platform]

board = SabreSD

[LIST]

name = i.MX6SOLO-SABRESD-SD

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In my case, i want to use i.mx6solo-sabresd-emmc or sd boot.

ucl2.xml set below

Hi Igor,

I am facing same issue when trying to flash eMMC using MFGTool on custom i.MX6 Solo board based on SABRE SD reference design.

Board boots from SD Card. Given below is extract from the SD Card boot:

SLUB: HWalign=64, Order=0-3, MinObjects=0, CPUs=2, Nodes=1

Yocto build setup was done using flag: MACHINE=imx6solosabresd

Are following values correct for Solo?

HWalign=64

CPUs=2

DDR3 Calibration values are added to mx6dlsabresd.cfg file.

Should MMDC Core Control Register (MMDCx_MDCTL) register at address 0x021b 0000 bits [17:16] DSIZ be updated with 32-bit access mode (01b)?

Default value is 64-bit access mode (10b).

Please share your thoughts.

Regards,

Arun

Hi Hanseung

message "No Device Connected" means that mfg tool can not

detect board, this may be hardware issue. Suggest to check

i.MX6 System Development User’s Guide Chapter 8 Avoiding Board Bring-up Problems

http://cache.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/user_guide/IMX6DQ6SDLHDG.pdf

and check it connecting jtag.

Note, with new processor it is necessary to run ddr test, then mfg tools firmware should be rebuild.

i.MX6/7 DDR Stress Test Tool V2.51

Best regards

igor
