For instance, all monitor commands are 40c609719bSwdenkimplemented with the same call interface, so that it's very easy to 41c609719bSwdenkadd new commands. Also, instead of permanently adding rarely used 42c609719bSwdenkcode (for instance hardware test utilities) to the monitor, you can 43c609719bSwdenkload and run it dynamically. 44c609719bSwdenk 45c609719bSwdenk 46c609719bSwdenkStatus: 47c609719bSwdenk======= 48c609719bSwdenk 49c609719bSwdenkIn general, all boards for which a configuration option exists in the 50c609719bSwdenkMakefile have been tested to some extent and can be considered 51c609719bSwdenk"working". In fact, many of them are used in production systems. 52c609719bSwdenk 53c609719bSwdenkIn case of problems see the CHANGELOG and CREDITS files to find out 54c609719bSwdenkwho contributed the specific port. 55c609719bSwdenk 56c609719bSwdenk 57c609719bSwdenkWhere to get help: 58c609719bSwdenk================== 59c609719bSwdenk 60c609719bSwdenkIn case you have questions about, problems with or contributions for 61c609719bSwdenkU-Boot you should send a message to the U-Boot mailing list at 62c609719bSwdenk<u-boot-users@lists.sourceforge.net>.

Right now, we have to 192c609719bSwdenkdo the configuration by hand, which means creating some symbolic 193c609719bSwdenklinks and editing some configuration files. We use the TQM8xxL boards 194c609719bSwdenkas an example here. 195c609719bSwdenk 196c609719bSwdenk 197c609719bSwdenkSelection of Processor Architecture and Board Type: 198c609719bSwdenk--------------------------------------------------- 199c609719bSwdenk 200c609719bSwdenkFor all supported boards there are ready-to-use default 201c609719bSwdenkconfigurations available; just type "make <board_name>_config". 202c609719bSwdenk 203c609719bSwdenkExample: For a TQM823L module type: 204c609719bSwdenk 205c609719bSwdenk cd u-boot 206c609719bSwdenk make TQM823L_config 207c609719bSwdenk 208c609719bSwdenkFor the Cogent platform, you need to specify the cpu type as well; 209c609719bSwdenke.g. "make cogent_mpc8xx_config". And also configure the cogent 210c609719bSwdenkdirectory according to the instructions in cogent/README. 211c609719bSwdenk 212c609719bSwdenk 213c609719bSwdenkConfiguration Options: 214c609719bSwdenk---------------------- 215c609719bSwdenk 216c609719bSwdenkConfiguration depends on the combination of board and CPU type; all 217c609719bSwdenksuch information is kept in a configuration file 218c609719bSwdenk"include/configs/<board_name>.h". 219c609719bSwdenk 220c609719bSwdenkExample: For a TQM823L module, all configuration settings are in 221c609719bSwdenk"include/configs/TQM823L.h". 222c609719bSwdenk 223c609719bSwdenk 2247f6c2cbcSwdenkMany of the options are named exactly as the corresponding Linux 2257f6c2cbcSwdenkkernel configuration options.

Defining 1123c609719bSwdenk CONFIG_BOOTP_RANDOM_DELAY causes a random delay to be 1124c609719bSwdenk inserted before sending out BOOTP requests. The 1125c609719bSwdenk following delays are insterted then: 1126c609719bSwdenk 1127c609719bSwdenk 1st BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 1 sec 1128c609719bSwdenk 2nd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 2 sec 1129c609719bSwdenk 3rd BOOTP request: delay 0 ... 4 sec 1130c609719bSwdenk 4th and following 1131c609719bSwdenk BOOTP requests: delay 0 ... 8 sec 1132c609719bSwdenk 1133fe389a82Sstroese- DHCP Advanced Options: 1134fe389a82Sstroese CONFIG_BOOTP_MASK 1135fe389a82Sstroese 1136fe389a82Sstroese You can fine tune the DHCP functionality by adding 1137fe389a82Sstroese these flags to the CONFIG_BOOTP_MASK define: 1138fe389a82Sstroese 1139fe389a82Sstroese CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 - If a DHCP client requests the DNS 1140fe389a82Sstroese serverip from a DHCP server, it is possible that more 1141fe389a82Sstroese than one DNS serverip is offered to the client. 1142fe389a82Sstroese If CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS2 is enabled, the secondary DNS 1143fe389a82Sstroese serverip will be stored in the additional environment 1144fe389a82Sstroese variable "dnsip2". The first DNS serverip is always 1145fe389a82Sstroese stored in the variable "dnsip", when CONFIG_BOOTP_DNS 1146fe389a82Sstroese is added to the CONFIG_BOOTP_MASK. 1147fe389a82Sstroese 1148fe389a82Sstroese CONFIG_BOOTP_SEND_HOSTNAME - Some DHCP servers are capable 1149fe389a82Sstroese to do a dynamic update of a DNS server. To do this, they 1150fe389a82Sstroese need the hostname of the DHCP requester. 1151fe389a82Sstroese If CONFIG_BOOP_SEND_HOSTNAME is added to the 1152fe389a82Sstroese CONFIG_BOOTP_MASK, the content of the "hostname" 1153fe389a82Sstroese environment variable is passed as option 12 to 1154fe389a82Sstroese the DHCP server. 1155fe389a82Sstroese 1156a3d991bdSwdenk - CDP Options: 1157a3d991bdSwdenk CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID 1158a3d991bdSwdenk 1159a3d991bdSwdenk The device id used in CDP trigger frames. 1160a3d991bdSwdenk 1161a3d991bdSwdenk CONFIG_CDP_DEVICE_ID_PREFIX 1162a3d991bdSwdenk 1163a3d991bdSwdenk A two character string which is prefixed to the MAC address 1164a3d991bdSwdenk of the device. 1165a3d991bdSwdenk 1166a3d991bdSwdenk CONFIG_CDP_PORT_ID 1167a3d991bdSwdenk 1168a3d991bdSwdenk A printf format string which contains the ascii name of 1169a3d991bdSwdenk the port.

For instance, the LED will blink 1202c609719bSwdenk fast while running U-Boot code, stop blinking as 1203c609719bSwdenk soon as a reply to a BOOTP request was received, and 1204c609719bSwdenk start blinking slow once the Linux kernel is running 1205c609719bSwdenk (supported by a status LED driver in the Linux 1206c609719bSwdenk kernel). Defining CONFIG_STATUS_LED enables this 1207c609719bSwdenk feature in U-Boot. 1208c609719bSwdenk 1209c609719bSwdenk- CAN Support: CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER 1210c609719bSwdenk 1211c609719bSwdenk Defining CONFIG_CAN_DRIVER enables CAN driver support 1212c609719bSwdenk on those systems that support this (optional) 1213c609719bSwdenk feature, like the TQM8xxL modules. 1214c609719bSwdenk 1215c609719bSwdenk- I2C Support: CONFIG_HARD_I2C | CONFIG_SOFT_I2C 1216c609719bSwdenk 1217b37c7e5eSwdenk These enable I2C serial bus commands. Defining either of 1218b37c7e5eSwdenk (but not both of) CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C will 1219b37c7e5eSwdenk include the appropriate I2C driver for the selected cpu. 1220c609719bSwdenk 1221b37c7e5eSwdenk This will allow you to use i2c commands at the u-boot 1222b37c7e5eSwdenk command line (as long as you set CFG_CMD_I2C in 1223b37c7e5eSwdenk CONFIG_COMMANDS) and communicate with i2c based realtime 1224b37c7e5eSwdenk clock chips. See common/cmd_i2c.c for a description of the 1225c609719bSwdenk command line interface. 1226c609719bSwdenk 1227bb99ad6dSBen Warren CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE is a recommended option that places 1228bb99ad6dSBen Warren all I2C commands under a single 'i2c' root command. The 1229bb99ad6dSBen Warren older 'imm', 'imd', 'iprobe' etc. commands are considered 1230bb99ad6dSBen Warren deprecated and may disappear in the future. 1231bb99ad6dSBen Warren 1232bb99ad6dSBen Warren CONFIG_HARD_I2C selects a hardware I2C controller. 1233c609719bSwdenk 1234b37c7e5eSwdenk CONFIG_SOFT_I2C configures u-boot to use a software (aka 1235b37c7e5eSwdenk bit-banging) driver instead of CPM or similar hardware 1236b37c7e5eSwdenk support for I2C. 1237c609719bSwdenk 1238b37c7e5eSwdenk There are several other quantities that must also be 1239b37c7e5eSwdenk defined when you define CONFIG_HARD_I2C or CONFIG_SOFT_I2C. 1240c609719bSwdenk 1241b37c7e5eSwdenk In both cases you will need to define CFG_I2C_SPEED 1242b37c7e5eSwdenk to be the frequency (in Hz) at which you wish your i2c bus 1243b37c7e5eSwdenk to run and CFG_I2C_SLAVE to be the address of this node (ie 1244b37c7e5eSwdenk the cpu's i2c node address). 1245c609719bSwdenk 1246b37c7e5eSwdenk Now, the u-boot i2c code for the mpc8xx (cpu/mpc8xx/i2c.c) 1247b37c7e5eSwdenk sets the cpu up as a master node and so its address should 1248b37c7e5eSwdenk therefore be cleared to 0 (See, eg, MPC823e User's Manual 1249b37c7e5eSwdenk p.16-473). So, set CFG_I2C_SLAVE to 0. 1250b37c7e5eSwdenk 1251b37c7e5eSwdenk That's all that's required for CONFIG_HARD_I2C. 1252b37c7e5eSwdenk 1253b37c7e5eSwdenk If you use the software i2c interface (CONFIG_SOFT_I2C) 1254b37c7e5eSwdenk then the following macros need to be defined (examples are 1255b37c7e5eSwdenk from include/configs/lwmon.h): 1256c609719bSwdenk 1257c609719bSwdenk I2C_INIT 1258c609719bSwdenk 1259b37c7e5eSwdenk (Optional).

This 1930c609719bSwdenk happens usually with "bottom boot sector" or "top boot 1931c609719bSwdenk sector" type flash chips, which have several smaller 1932c609719bSwdenk sectors at the start or the end. For instance, such a 1933c609719bSwdenk layout can have sector sizes of 8, 2x4, 16, Nx32 kB. In 1934c609719bSwdenk such a case you would place the environment in one of the 1935c609719bSwdenk 4 kB sectors - with U-Boot code before and after it. With 1936c609719bSwdenk "top boot sector" type flash chips, you would put the 1937c609719bSwdenk environment in one of the last sectors, leaving a gap 1938c609719bSwdenk between U-Boot and the environment. 1939c609719bSwdenk 1940c609719bSwdenk - CFG_ENV_OFFSET: 1941c609719bSwdenk 1942c609719bSwdenk Offset of environment data (variable area) to the 1943c609719bSwdenk beginning of flash memory; for instance, with bottom boot 1944c609719bSwdenk type flash chips the second sector can be used: the offset 1945c609719bSwdenk for this sector is given here. 1946c609719bSwdenk 1947c609719bSwdenk CFG_ENV_OFFSET is used relative to CFG_FLASH_BASE. 1948c609719bSwdenk 1949c609719bSwdenk - CFG_ENV_ADDR: 1950c609719bSwdenk 1951c609719bSwdenk This is just another way to specify the start address of 1952c609719bSwdenk the flash sector containing the environment (instead of 1953c609719bSwdenk CFG_ENV_OFFSET). 1954c609719bSwdenk 1955c609719bSwdenk - CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE: 1956c609719bSwdenk 1957c609719bSwdenk Size of the sector containing the environment. 1958c609719bSwdenk 1959c609719bSwdenk 1960c609719bSwdenk b) Sometimes flash chips have few, equal sized, BIG sectors. 1961c609719bSwdenk In such a case you don't want to spend a whole sector for 1962c609719bSwdenk the environment. 1963c609719bSwdenk 1964c609719bSwdenk - CFG_ENV_SIZE: 1965c609719bSwdenk 1966c609719bSwdenk If you use this in combination with CFG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH 1967c609719bSwdenk and CFG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, you can specify to use only a part 1968c609719bSwdenk of this flash sector for the environment. This saves 1969c609719bSwdenk memory for the RAM copy of the environment. 1970c609719bSwdenk 1971c609719bSwdenk It may also save flash memory if you decide to use this 1972c609719bSwdenk when your environment is "embedded" within U-Boot code, 1973c609719bSwdenk since then the remainder of the flash sector could be used 1974c609719bSwdenk for U-Boot code.

To do this, follow these 2463c609719bSwdenksteps: 2464c609719bSwdenk 2465c609719bSwdenk1. Add a new configuration option for your board to the toplevel 246685ec0bccSwdenk "Makefile" and to the "MAKEALL" script, using the existing 246785ec0bccSwdenk entries as examples. Note that here and at many other places 24687152b1d0Swdenk boards and other names are listed in alphabetical sort order. Please 246985ec0bccSwdenk keep this order. 2470c609719bSwdenk2. Create a new directory to hold your board specific code. Add any 247185ec0bccSwdenk files you need. In your board directory, you will need at least 247285ec0bccSwdenk the "Makefile", a "<board>.c", "flash.c" and "u-boot.lds". 247385ec0bccSwdenk3. Create a new configuration file "include/configs/<board>.h" for 247485ec0bccSwdenk your board 2475c609719bSwdenk3. If you're porting U-Boot to a new CPU, then also create a new 2476c609719bSwdenk directory to hold your CPU specific code. Add any files you need. 247785ec0bccSwdenk4. Run "make <board>_config" with your new name. 2478c609719bSwdenk5. Type "make", and you should get a working "u-boot.srec" file 2479c609719bSwdenk to be installed on your target system. 248085ec0bccSwdenk6. Debug and solve any problems that might arise. 2481c609719bSwdenk [Of course, this last step is much harder than it sounds.] 2482c609719bSwdenk 2483c609719bSwdenk 2484c609719bSwdenkTesting of U-Boot Modifications, Ports to New Hardware, etc.: 2485c609719bSwdenk============================================================== 2486c609719bSwdenk 2487c609719bSwdenkIf you have modified U-Boot sources (for instance added a new board 2488c609719bSwdenkor support for new devices, a new CPU, etc.) you are expected to 2489c609719bSwdenkprovide feedback to the other developers. The feedback normally takes 2490c609719bSwdenkthe form of a "patch", i. e. a context diff against a certain (latest 2491c609719bSwdenkofficial or latest in CVS) version of U-Boot sources. 2492c609719bSwdenk 2493c609719bSwdenkBut before you submit such a patch, please verify that your modifi- 2494c609719bSwdenkcation did not break existing code. At least make sure that *ALL* of 2495c609719bSwdenkthe supported boards compile WITHOUT ANY compiler warnings. To do so, 2496c609719bSwdenkjust run the "MAKEALL" script, which will configure and build U-Boot 2497c609719bSwdenkfor ALL supported system. Be warned, this will take a while. You can 24987152b1d0Swdenkselect which (cross) compiler to use by passing a `CROSS_COMPILE' 2499c609719bSwdenkenvironment variable to the script, i. e. to use the cross tools from 2500c609719bSwdenkMontaVista's Hard Hat Linux you can type 2501c609719bSwdenk 2502c609719bSwdenk CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 2503c609719bSwdenk 2504c609719bSwdenkor to build on a native PowerPC system you can type 2505c609719bSwdenk 2506c609719bSwdenk CROSS_COMPILE=' ' MAKEALL 2507c609719bSwdenk 2508baf31249SMarian BalakowiczWhen using the MAKEALL script, the default behaviour is to build U-Boot 2509baf31249SMarian Balakowiczin the source directory. This location can be changed by setting the 2510baf31249SMarian BalakowiczBUILD_DIR environment variable. Also, for each target built, the MAKEALL 2511baf31249SMarian Balakowiczscript saves two log files (<target>.ERR and <target>.MAKEALL) in the 2512baf31249SMarian Balakowicz<source dir>/LOG directory. This default location can be changed by 2513baf31249SMarian Balakowiczsetting the MAKEALL_LOGDIR environment variable. For example: 2514baf31249SMarian Balakowicz 2515baf31249SMarian Balakowicz export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build 2516baf31249SMarian Balakowicz export MAKEALL_LOGDIR=/tmp/log 2517baf31249SMarian Balakowicz CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_8xx- MAKEALL 2518baf31249SMarian Balakowicz 2519baf31249SMarian BalakowiczWith the above settings build objects are saved in the /tmp/build, log 2520baf31249SMarian Balakowiczfiles are saved in the /tmp/log and the source tree remains clean during 2521baf31249SMarian Balakowiczthe whole build process. 2522baf31249SMarian Balakowicz 2523baf31249SMarian Balakowicz 2524c609719bSwdenkSee also "U-Boot Porting Guide" below. 2525c609719bSwdenk 2526c609719bSwdenk 2527c609719bSwdenkMonitor Commands - Overview: 2528c609719bSwdenk============================ 2529c609719bSwdenk 2530c609719bSwdenkgo - start application at address 'addr' 2531c609719bSwdenkrun - run commands in an environment variable 2532c609719bSwdenkbootm - boot application image from memory 2533c609719bSwdenkbootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol 2534c609719bSwdenktftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol 2535c609719bSwdenk and env variables "ipaddr" and "serverip" 2536c609719bSwdenk (and eventually "gatewayip") 2537c609719bSwdenkrarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol 2538c609719bSwdenkdiskboot- boot from IDE devicebootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd' 2539c609719bSwdenkloads - load S-Record file over serial line 2540c609719bSwdenkloadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode) 2541c609719bSwdenkmd - memory display 2542c609719bSwdenkmm - memory modify (auto-incrementing) 2543c609719bSwdenknm - memory modify (constant address) 2544c609719bSwdenkmw - memory write (fill) 2545c609719bSwdenkcp - memory copy 2546c609719bSwdenkcmp - memory compare 2547c609719bSwdenkcrc32 - checksum calculation 2548c609719bSwdenkimd - i2c memory display 2549c609719bSwdenkimm - i2c memory modify (auto-incrementing) 2550c609719bSwdenkinm - i2c memory modify (constant address) 2551c609719bSwdenkimw - i2c memory write (fill) 2552c609719bSwdenkicrc32 - i2c checksum calculation 2553c609719bSwdenkiprobe - probe to discover valid I2C chip addresses 2554c609719bSwdenkiloop - infinite loop on address range 2555c609719bSwdenkisdram - print SDRAM configuration information 2556c609719bSwdenksspi - SPI utility commands 2557c609719bSwdenkbase - print or set address offset 2558c609719bSwdenkprintenv- print environment variables 2559c609719bSwdenksetenv - set environment variables 2560c609719bSwdenksaveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage 2561c609719bSwdenkprotect - enable or disable FLASH write protection 2562c609719bSwdenkerase - erase FLASH memory 2563c609719bSwdenkflinfo - print FLASH memory information 2564c609719bSwdenkbdinfo - print Board Info structure 2565c609719bSwdenkiminfo - print header information for application image 2566c609719bSwdenkconinfo - print console devices and informations 2567c609719bSwdenkide - IDE sub-system 2568c609719bSwdenkloop - infinite loop on address range 256956523f12Swdenkloopw - infinite write loop on address range 2570c609719bSwdenkmtest - simple RAM test 2571c609719bSwdenkicache - enable or disable instruction cache 2572c609719bSwdenkdcache - enable or disable data cache 2573c609719bSwdenkreset - Perform RESET of the CPU 2574c609719bSwdenkecho - echo args to console 2575c609719bSwdenkversion - print monitor version 2576c609719bSwdenkhelp - print online help 2577c609719bSwdenk? - alias for 'help' 2578c609719bSwdenk 2579c609719bSwdenk 2580c609719bSwdenkMonitor Commands - Detailed Description: 2581c609719bSwdenk======================================== 2582c609719bSwdenk 2583c609719bSwdenkTODO. 2584c609719bSwdenk 2585c609719bSwdenkFor now: just type "help <command>". 2586c609719bSwdenk 2587c609719bSwdenk 2588c609719bSwdenkEnvironment Variables: 2589c609719bSwdenk====================== 2590c609719bSwdenk 2591c609719bSwdenkU-Boot supports user configuration using Environment Variables which 2592c609719bSwdenkcan be made persistent by saving to Flash memory. 2593c609719bSwdenk 2594c609719bSwdenkEnvironment Variables are set using "setenv", printed using 2595c609719bSwdenk"printenv", and saved to Flash using "saveenv".

Also, any 2857c609719bSwdenk"initrd" images to be used are no longer part of one big Linux image; 2858c609719bSwdenkinstead, kernel and "initrd" are separate images. This implementation 28597152b1d0Swdenkserves several purposes: 2860c609719bSwdenk 2861c609719bSwdenk- the same features can be used for other OS or standalone 2862c609719bSwdenk applications (for instance: using compressed images to reduce the 2863c609719bSwdenk Flash memory footprint) 2864c609719bSwdenk 2865c609719bSwdenk- it becomes much easier to port new Linux kernel versions because 28667152b1d0Swdenk lots of low-level, hardware dependent stuff are done by U-Boot 2867c609719bSwdenk 2868c609719bSwdenk- the same Linux kernel image can now be used with different "initrd" 2869c609719bSwdenk images; of course this also means that different kernel images can 2870c609719bSwdenk be run with the same "initrd". This makes testing easier (you don't 2871c609719bSwdenk have to build a new "zImage.initrd" Linux image when you just 2872c609719bSwdenk change a file in your "initrd").

Usually these programs 32276069ff26Swdenk will install their own set of exception handlers, device 32286069ff26Swdenk drivers, set up the MMU, etc. - this means, that you cannot 32296069ff26Swdenk expect to re-enter U-Boot except by resetting the CPU. 32306069ff26Swdenk "RAMDisk Images" are more or less just data blocks, and their 32316069ff26Swdenk parameters (address, size) are passed to an OS kernel that is 32326069ff26Swdenk being started. 32336069ff26Swdenk "Multi-File Images" contain several images, typically an OS 32346069ff26Swdenk (Linux) kernel image and one or more data images like 32356069ff26Swdenk RAMDisks. This construct is useful for instance when you want 32366069ff26Swdenk to boot over the network using BOOTP etc., where the boot 32376069ff26Swdenk server provides just a single image file, but you want to get 32386069ff26Swdenk for instance an OS kernel and a RAMDisk image. 32396069ff26Swdenk 32406069ff26Swdenk "Multi-File Images" start with a list of image sizes, each 32416069ff26Swdenk image size (in bytes) specified by an "uint32_t" in network 32426069ff26Swdenk byte order. This list is terminated by an "(uint32_t)0". 32436069ff26Swdenk Immediately after the terminating 0 follow the images, one by 32446069ff26Swdenk one, all aligned on "uint32_t" boundaries (size rounded up to 32456069ff26Swdenk a multiple of 4 bytes). 32466069ff26Swdenk 32476069ff26Swdenk "Firmware Images" are binary images containing firmware (like 32486069ff26Swdenk U-Boot or FPGA images) which usually will be programmed to 32496069ff26Swdenk flash memory. 32506069ff26Swdenk 32516069ff26Swdenk "Script files" are command sequences that will be executed by 32526069ff26Swdenk U-Boot's command interpreter; this feature is especially 32536069ff26Swdenk useful when you configure U-Boot to use a real shell (hush) 32546069ff26Swdenk as command interpreter. 32556069ff26Swdenk 3256c609719bSwdenk 3257c609719bSwdenkStandalone HOWTO: 3258c609719bSwdenk================= 3259c609719bSwdenk 3260c609719bSwdenkOne of the features of U-Boot is that you can dynamically load and 3261c609719bSwdenkrun "standalone" applications, which can use some resources of 3262c609719bSwdenkU-Boot like console I/O functions or interrupt services. 3263c609719bSwdenk 3264c609719bSwdenkTwo simple examples are included with the sources: 3265c609719bSwdenk 3266c609719bSwdenk"Hello World" Demo: 3267c609719bSwdenk------------------- 3268c609719bSwdenk 3269c609719bSwdenk'examples/hello_world.c' contains a small "Hello World" Demo 3270c609719bSwdenkapplication; it is automatically compiled when you build U-Boot. 3271c609719bSwdenkIt's configured to run at address 0x00040004, so you can play with it 3272c609719bSwdenklike that: 3273c609719bSwdenk 3274c609719bSwdenk => loads 3275c609719bSwdenk ## Ready for S-Record download ... 3276c609719bSwdenk ~>examples/hello_world.srec 3277c609719bSwdenk 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 3278c609719bSwdenk [file transfer complete] 3279c609719bSwdenk [connected] 3280c609719bSwdenk ## Start Addr = 0x00040004 3281c609719bSwdenk 3282c609719bSwdenk => go 40004 Hello World!

This file has to be installed and patched manually: 3375c609719bSwdenk 3376c609719bSwdenk # cd /usr/pkg/cross/powerpc-netbsd/include 3377c609719bSwdenk # mkdir powerpc 3378c609719bSwdenk # ln -s powerpc machine 3379c609719bSwdenk # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/powerpc/include/ansi.h powerpc/ansi.h 3380c609719bSwdenk # ${EDIT} powerpc/ansi.h ## must remove __va_list, _BSD_VA_LIST 3381c609719bSwdenk 3382c609719bSwdenkNative builds *don't* work due to incompatibilities between native 3383c609719bSwdenkand U-Boot include files. 3384c609719bSwdenk 3385c609719bSwdenkBooting assumes that (the first part of) the image booted is a 3386c609719bSwdenkstage-2 loader which in turn loads and then invokes the kernel 3387c609719bSwdenkproper.

However, it should help to understand the 3397c609719bSwdenkinner workings of U-Boot and make it easier to port it to custom 3398c609719bSwdenkhardware. 3399c609719bSwdenk 3400c609719bSwdenk 3401c609719bSwdenkInitial Stack, Global Data: 3402c609719bSwdenk--------------------------- 3403c609719bSwdenk 3404c609719bSwdenkThe implementation of U-Boot is complicated by the fact that U-Boot 3405c609719bSwdenkstarts running out of ROM (flash memory), usually without access to 3406c609719bSwdenksystem RAM (because the memory controller is not initialized yet). 3407c609719bSwdenkThis means that we don't have writable Data or BSS segments, and BSS 3408c609719bSwdenkis not initialized as zero. To be able to get a C environment working 3409c609719bSwdenkat all, we have to allocate at least a minimal stack. Implementation 3410c609719bSwdenkoptions for this are defined and restricted by the CPU used: Some CPU 3411c609719bSwdenkmodels provide on-chip memory (like the IMMR area on MPC8xx and 3412c609719bSwdenkMPC826x processors), on others (parts of) the data cache can be 3413c609719bSwdenklocked as (mis-) used as memory, etc. 3414c609719bSwdenk 34157152b1d0Swdenk Chris Hallinan posted a good summary of these issues to the 341643d9616cSwdenk u-boot-users mailing list: 341743d9616cSwdenk 341843d9616cSwdenk Subject: RE: [U-Boot-Users] RE: More On Memory Bank x (nothingness)? 341943d9616cSwdenk From: "Chris Hallinan" <clh@net1plus.com> 342043d9616cSwdenk Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2003 16:43:46 -0500 (22:43 MET) 342143d9616cSwdenk ... 342243d9616cSwdenk 342343d9616cSwdenk Correct me if I'm wrong, folks, but the way I understand it 342443d9616cSwdenk is this: Using DCACHE as initial RAM for Stack, etc, does not 342543d9616cSwdenk require any physical RAM backing up the cache. The cleverness 342643d9616cSwdenk is that the cache is being used as a temporary supply of 342743d9616cSwdenk necessary storage before the SDRAM controller is setup. It's 342843d9616cSwdenk beyond the scope of this list to expain the details, but you 342943d9616cSwdenk can see how this works by studying the cache architecture and 343043d9616cSwdenk operation in the architecture and processor-specific manuals. 343143d9616cSwdenk 343243d9616cSwdenk OCM is On Chip Memory, which I believe the 405GP has 4K. It 343343d9616cSwdenk is another option for the system designer to use as an 343443d9616cSwdenk initial stack/ram area prior to SDRAM being available. Either 343543d9616cSwdenk option should work for you. Using CS 4 should be fine if your 343643d9616cSwdenk board designers haven't used it for something that would 343743d9616cSwdenk cause you grief during the initial boot! It is frequently not 343843d9616cSwdenk used. 343943d9616cSwdenk 344043d9616cSwdenk CFG_INIT_RAM_ADDR should be somewhere that won't interfere 344143d9616cSwdenk with your processor/board/system design. The default value 344243d9616cSwdenk you will find in any recent u-boot distribution in 34438a316c9bSStefan Roese walnut.h should work for you. I'd set it to a value larger 344443d9616cSwdenk than your SDRAM module. If you have a 64MB SDRAM module, set 344543d9616cSwdenk it above 400_0000. Just make sure your board has no resources 344643d9616cSwdenk that are supposed to respond to that address! That code in 344743d9616cSwdenk start.S has been around a while and should work as is when 344843d9616cSwdenk you get the config right. 344943d9616cSwdenk 345043d9616cSwdenk -Chris Hallinan 345143d9616cSwdenk DS4.COM, Inc. 345243d9616cSwdenk 3453c609719bSwdenkIt is essential to remember this, since it has some impact on the C 3454c609719bSwdenkcode for the initialization procedures: 3455c609719bSwdenk 3456c609719bSwdenk* Initialized global data (data segment) is read-only. Do not attempt 3457c609719bSwdenk to write it. 3458c609719bSwdenk 3459c609719bSwdenk* Do not use any unitialized global data (or implicitely initialized 3460c609719bSwdenk as zero data - BSS segment) at all - this is undefined, initiali- 34617152b1d0Swdenk zation is performed later (when relocating to RAM). 3462c609719bSwdenk 3463c609719bSwdenk* Stack space is very limited. Avoid big data buffers or things like 3464c609719bSwdenk that. 3465c609719bSwdenk 3466c609719bSwdenkHaving only the stack as writable memory limits means we cannot use 3467c609719bSwdenknormal global data to share information beween the code. But it 3468c609719bSwdenkturned out that the implementation of U-Boot can be greatly 3469c609719bSwdenksimplified by making a global data structure (gd_t) available to all 3470c609719bSwdenkfunctions. We could pass a pointer to this data as argument to _all_ 3471c609719bSwdenkfunctions, but this would bloat the code. Instead we use a feature of 3472c609719bSwdenkthe GCC compiler (Global Register Variables) to share the data: we 3473c609719bSwdenkplace a pointer (gd) to the global data into a register which we 3474c609719bSwdenkreserve for this purpose. 3475c609719bSwdenk 34767152b1d0SwdenkWhen choosing a register for such a purpose we are restricted by the 3477c609719bSwdenkrelevant (E)ABI specifications for the current architecture, and by 3478c609719bSwdenkGCC's implementation. 3479c609719bSwdenk 3480c609719bSwdenkFor PowerPC, the following registers have specific use: 3481c609719bSwdenk R1: stack pointer 3482c609719bSwdenk R2: TOC pointer 3483c609719bSwdenk R3-R4: parameter passing and return values 3484c609719bSwdenk R5-R10: parameter passing 3485c609719bSwdenk R13: small data area pointer 3486c609719bSwdenk R30: GOT pointer 3487c609719bSwdenk R31: frame pointer 3488c609719bSwdenk 3489c609719bSwdenk (U-Boot also uses R14 as internal GOT pointer.) 3490c609719bSwdenk 3491c609719bSwdenk ==> U-Boot will use R29 to hold a pointer to the global data 3492c609719bSwdenk 3493c609719bSwdenk Note: on PPC, we could use a static initializer (since the 3494c609719bSwdenk address of the global data structure is known at compile time), 3495c609719bSwdenk but it turned out that reserving a register results in somewhat 3496c609719bSwdenk smaller code - although the code savings are not that big (on 3497c609719bSwdenk average for all boards 752 bytes for the whole U-Boot image, 3498c609719bSwdenk 624 text + 127 data). 3499c609719bSwdenk 3500c609719bSwdenkOn ARM, the following registers are used: 3501c609719bSwdenk 3502c609719bSwdenk R0: function argument word/integer result 3503c609719bSwdenk R1-R3: function argument word 3504c609719bSwdenk R9: GOT pointer 3505c609719bSwdenk R10: stack limit (used only if stack checking if enabled) 3506c609719bSwdenk R11: argument (frame) pointer 3507c609719bSwdenk R12: temporary workspace 3508c609719bSwdenk R13: stack pointer 3509c609719bSwdenk R14: link register 3510c609719bSwdenk R15: program counter 3511c609719bSwdenk 3512c609719bSwdenk ==> U-Boot will use R8 to hold a pointer to the global data 3513c609719bSwdenk 3514d87080b7SWolfgang DenkNOTE: DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR must be used with file-global scope, 3515d87080b7SWolfgang Denkor current versions of GCC may "optimize" the code too much. 3516c609719bSwdenk 3517c609719bSwdenkMemory Management: 3518c609719bSwdenk------------------ 3519c609719bSwdenk 3520c609719bSwdenkU-Boot runs in system state and uses physical addresses, i.e. the 3521c609719bSwdenkMMU is not used either for address mapping nor for memory protection. 3522c609719bSwdenk 3523c609719bSwdenkThe available memory is mapped to fixed addresses using the memory 3524c609719bSwdenkcontroller. In this process, a contiguous block is formed for each 3525c609719bSwdenkmemory type (Flash, SDRAM, SRAM), even when it consists of several 3526c609719bSwdenkphysical memory banks. 3527c609719bSwdenk 3528c609719bSwdenkU-Boot is installed in the first 128 kB of the first Flash bank (on 3529c609719bSwdenkTQM8xxL modules this is the range 0x40000000 ... 0x4001FFFF). After 3530c609719bSwdenkbooting and sizing and initializing DRAM, the code relocates itself 3531c609719bSwdenkto the upper end of DRAM. Immediately below the U-Boot code some 3532c609719bSwdenkmemory is reserved for use by malloc() [see CFG_MALLOC_LEN 3533c609719bSwdenkconfiguration setting]. Below that, a structure with global Board 3534c609719bSwdenkInfo data is placed, followed by the stack (growing downward). 3535c609719bSwdenk 3536c609719bSwdenkAdditionally, some exception handler code is copied to the low 8 kB 3537c609719bSwdenkof DRAM (0x00000000 ... 0x00001FFF). 3538c609719bSwdenk 3539c609719bSwdenkSo a typical memory configuration with 16 MB of DRAM could look like 3540c609719bSwdenkthis: 3541c609719bSwdenk 3542c609719bSwdenk 0x0000 0000 Exception Vector code 3543c609719bSwdenk : 3544c609719bSwdenk 0x0000 1FFF 3545c609719bSwdenk 0x0000 2000 Free for Application Use 3546c609719bSwdenk : 3547c609719bSwdenk : 3548c609719bSwdenk 3549c609719bSwdenk : 3550c609719bSwdenk : 3551c609719bSwdenk 0x00FB FF20 Monitor Stack (Growing downward) 3552c609719bSwdenk 0x00FB FFAC Board Info Data and permanent copy of global data 3553c609719bSwdenk 0x00FC 0000 Malloc Arena 3554c609719bSwdenk : 3555c609719bSwdenk 0x00FD FFFF 3556c609719bSwdenk 0x00FE 0000 RAM Copy of Monitor Code 3557c609719bSwdenk ... eventually: LCD or video framebuffer 3558c609719bSwdenk ... eventually: pRAM (Protected RAM - unchanged by reset) 3559c609719bSwdenk 0x00FF FFFF [End of RAM] 3560c609719bSwdenk 3561c609719bSwdenk 3562c609719bSwdenkSystem Initialization: 3563c609719bSwdenk---------------------- 3564c609719bSwdenk 3565c609719bSwdenkIn the reset configuration, U-Boot starts at the reset entry point 3566c609719bSwdenk(on most PowerPC systens at address 0x00000100). Because of the reset 3567c609719bSwdenkconfiguration for CS0# this is a mirror of the onboard Flash memory. 35687152b1d0SwdenkTo be able to re-map memory U-Boot then jumps to its link address. 3569c609719bSwdenkTo be able to implement the initialization code in C, a (small!) 3570c609719bSwdenkinitial stack is set up in the internal Dual Ported RAM (in case CPUs 3571c609719bSwdenkwhich provide such a feature like MPC8xx or MPC8260), or in a locked 3572c609719bSwdenkpart of the data cache. After that, U-Boot initializes the CPU core, 3573c609719bSwdenkthe caches and the SIU. 3574c609719bSwdenk 3575c609719bSwdenkNext, all (potentially) available memory banks are mapped using a 3576c609719bSwdenkpreliminary mapping. For example, we put them on 512 MB boundaries 3577c609719bSwdenk(multiples of 0x20000000: SDRAM on 0x00000000 and 0x20000000, Flash 3578c609719bSwdenkon 0x40000000 and 0x60000000, SRAM on 0x80000000). Then UPM A is 3579c609719bSwdenkprogrammed for SDRAM access. Using the temporary configuration, a 3580c609719bSwdenksimple memory test is run that determines the size of the SDRAM 3581c609719bSwdenkbanks. 3582c609719bSwdenk 3583c609719bSwdenkWhen there is more than one SDRAM bank, and the banks are of 35847152b1d0Swdenkdifferent size, the largest is mapped first. For equal size, the first 3585c609719bSwdenkbank (CS2#) is mapped first. The first mapping is always for address 3586c609719bSwdenk0x00000000, with any additional banks following immediately to create 3587c609719bSwdenkcontiguous memory starting from 0. 3588c609719bSwdenk 3589c609719bSwdenkThen, the monitor installs itself at the upper end of the SDRAM area 3590c609719bSwdenkand allocates memory for use by malloc() and for the global Board 3591c609719bSwdenkInfo data; also, the exception vector code is copied to the low RAM 3592c609719bSwdenkpages, and the final stack is set up. 3593c609719bSwdenk 3594c609719bSwdenkOnly after this relocation will you have a "normal" C environment; 3595c609719bSwdenkuntil that you are restricted in several ways, mostly because you are 3596c609719bSwdenkrunning from ROM, and because the code will have to be relocated to a 3597c609719bSwdenknew address in RAM. 3598c609719bSwdenk 3599c609719bSwdenk 3600c609719bSwdenkU-Boot Porting Guide: 3601c609719bSwdenk---------------------- 3602c609719bSwdenk 3603c609719bSwdenk[Based on messages by Jerry Van Baren in the U-Boot-Users mailing 36046aff3115Swdenklist, October 2002] 3605c609719bSwdenk 3606c609719bSwdenk 3607c609719bSwdenkint main (int argc, char *argv[]) 3608c609719bSwdenk{ 3609c609719bSwdenk sighandler_t no_more_time; 3610c609719bSwdenk 3611c609719bSwdenk signal (SIGALRM, no_more_time); 3612c609719bSwdenk alarm (PROJECT_DEADLINE - toSec (3 * WEEK)); 3613c609719bSwdenk 3614c609719bSwdenk if (available_money > available_manpower) { 3615c609719bSwdenk pay consultant to port U-Boot; 3616c609719bSwdenk return 0; 3617c609719bSwdenk } 3618c609719bSwdenk 3619c609719bSwdenk Download latest U-Boot source; 3620c609719bSwdenk 36216aff3115Swdenk Subscribe to u-boot-users mailing list; 36226aff3115Swdenk 3623c609719bSwdenk if (clueless) { 3624c609719bSwdenk email ("Hi, I am new to U-Boot, how do I get started?"); 3625c609719bSwdenk } 3626c609719bSwdenk 3627c609719bSwdenk while (learning) { 3628c609719bSwdenk Read the README file in the top level directory; 36297cb22f97Swdenk Read http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/Manual ; 3630c609719bSwdenk Read the source, Luke; 3631c609719bSwdenk } 3632c609719bSwdenk 3633c609719bSwdenk if (available_money > toLocalCurrency ($2500)) { 3634c609719bSwdenk Buy a BDI2000; 3635c609719bSwdenk } else { 3636c609719bSwdenk Add a lot of aggravation and time; 3637c609719bSwdenk } 3638c609719bSwdenk 3639c609719bSwdenk Create your own board support subdirectory; 3640c609719bSwdenk 36416aff3115Swdenk Create your own board config file; 36426aff3115Swdenk 3643c609719bSwdenk while (!running) { 3644c609719bSwdenk do { 3645c609719bSwdenk Add / modify source code; 3646c609719bSwdenk } until (compiles); 3647c609719bSwdenk Debug; 3648c609719bSwdenk if (clueless) 3649c609719bSwdenk email ("Hi, I am having problems..."); 3650c609719bSwdenk } 3651c609719bSwdenk Send patch file to Wolfgang; 3652c609719bSwdenk 3653c609719bSwdenk return 0; 3654c609719bSwdenk} 3655c609719bSwdenk 3656c609719bSwdenkvoid no_more_time (int sig) 3657c609719bSwdenk{ 3658c609719bSwdenk hire_a_guru(); 3659c609719bSwdenk} 3660c609719bSwdenk 3661c609719bSwdenk 3662c609719bSwdenkCoding Standards: 3663c609719bSwdenk----------------- 3664c609719bSwdenk 3665c609719bSwdenkAll contributions to U-Boot should conform to the Linux kernel 36662c051651SDetlev Zundelcoding style; see the file "Documentation/CodingStyle" and the script 36672c051651SDetlev Zundel"scripts/Lindent" in your Linux kernel source directory.
