Using MFG Tools with I.MX6U

[powerprince]

Using the MFG Tool to try to EMMC writing.

But this is a kernel panic occurs as follows.

Main chip : I.MX6U

os : Linux

Making the RAMDISK image and to use the MFG Tool, the boot arguments following the u-boot has been passed to the kernel.

1. mfg ucl2.xml file

• <LIST name="GNSD-3D-SVM-eMMC" desc="Choose eMMC Linux as media">
• <!-- Loading -->
• <CMD state="BootStrap" type="boot" body="BootStrap" file ="u-boot.imx" >Loading U-boot...</CMD>
•   <CMD state="BootStrap" type="load" file="uImage" address="0x10800000" loadSection="OTH" setSection="OTH" HasFlashHeader="FALSE" >Loading Kernel...</CMD>
•   <CMD state="BootStrap" type="load" file="initrd-2.image" address="0x20000000" loadSection="OTH" setSection="OTH" HasFlashHeader="FALSE" >Loading Initrd....</CMD>

   2. U-boot boot arguments

• As defined in the above file MFG ucl2.xml file as a uimageaddr =0x10800000, ramdiskaddr = 0x20000000.
• ramdisksize is 36864.
• mfg_args=setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} mem=940M root=/dev/ram0 rw rootfstype=ext2 initrd=${ramdiskaddr},36M ramdisk=${ramdisksize} video=${videoopts} ip=dhcp eth=${usbethaddr}
• boot_mfg=echo Booting from mfg ...;run mfg_args; bootm ${uimageaddr} ${ramdiskaddr}

   3.Kernel command line

• kernel command line: console=ttymxc0,115200 mem=940M root=/dev/ram0 rw rootfstype=ext2 initrd=20000000,36M ramdisk=36864 video=mxcfb0:dev=lcd,GNSD-WVGA@30,if=BGR24,bpp=16 consoleblank=0 ip=dhcp eth=

  Kernel panic occurs when the ramdisk mount, as shown below.

Hi ryan

had you run DDR tests and rebuild MFG Tools firmware

with new DDR settings found in DDR tests

https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-96412

Best regards
