i.MX53QSB BSP and kernel source not available

[199694]

Regarding the i.MX53QSB, all links to BSP releases and documentation are dead.

Please advise on where to obtain BSP source code, documentation, U-Booot source code, and the imx_2.6.35_maintain branch of git://git.freescale.com/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git for kernel source

@Rita_Wang Thank you for the link, all the linked files are downloaded.

However, there is an issue with powerup hangs. Turns out a further set of patches to L2.6.35_11_09_ER_SOURCE was needed to enhance reliability. Would you have these update files as per the refenced article (2)?

IMX53_LINUX_1109_BSP_PATCH, IMX53_1109_LINUX_MMDOCS, IMX53_11_09_LINUX_MMCODECS, AACP_CODECS_LINUX_11_09

@TomE if you are still around, I hope you can be of help as you've worked on this in the past!

I asked Google and it found this post, saying everything has moved to github:

https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/git-freescale-com-down/m-p/996004

But read the whole of the above. It complains they only moved ONE repo to github and that 93 repos (and/or branches) are missing.

That happened 14 months ago.

That also shows the danger of relying on "remote repositories" in builds. You should always have local mirrors of everything.

Hi Tom, thanks so much for your reply. It is sad that nothing can be done.

I got a bare i.MX53QSB and I'd hate to trash the board over the lack of documentation and source.

Perhaps someone from NXP can help as this stuff must surely be archived internally.

Please ping me if anyone has a copy of the L2.6.35_11.09.01_ER_source_bundle.tar.gz
