5Recommended toolchains
6----------------------
7
8The UniPhier platform is well tested with Linaro toolchains.
9You can download pre-built toolchains from:
10
11    http://www.linaro.org/downloads/
12
13
14Compile the source
15------------------
16
17The source can be configured and built with the following commands:
18
19    $ make <defconfig>
20    $ make CROSS_COMPILE=<toolchain-prefix> DEVICE_TREE=<device-tree>
21
22The recommended <toolchain-prefix> is `arm-linux-gnueabihf-` for 32bit SoCs,
23`aarch64-linux-gnu-` for 64bit SoCs, but you may wish to change it to use your
24favorite compiler.
25
26The following tables show <defconfig> and <device-tree> for each board.
27
2832bit SoC boards:
29
30 Board         | <defconfig>                  | <device-tree>
31---------------|------------------------------|------------------------------
32sLD3 reference | uniphier_sld3_defconfig      | uniphier-sld3-ref (default)
33LD4 reference  | uniphier_ld4_sld8_defconfig  | uniphier-ld4-ref (default)
34sld8 reference | uniphier_ld4_sld8_defconfig  | uniphier-sld8-def
35Pro4 reference | uniphier_pro4_defconfig      | uniphier-pro4-ref (default)
36Pro4 Ace       | uniphier_pro4_defconfig      | uniphier-pro4-ace
37Pro4 Sanji     | uniphier_pro4_defconfig      | uniphier-pro4-sanji
38Pro5 4KBOX     | uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig | uniphier-pro5-4kbox
39PXs2 Gentil    | uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig | uniphier-pxs2-gentil
40PXs2 Vodka     | uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig | uniphier-pxs2-vodka (default)
41LD6b reference | uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig | uniphier-ld6b-ref
42
4364bit SoC boards:
44
45 Board         | <defconfig>           | <device-tree>
46---------------|-----------------------|----------------------------
47LD11 reference | uniphier_v8_defconfig | uniphier-ld11-ref
48LD11 Global    | uniphier_v8_defconfig | uniphier-ld11-global
49LD20 reference | uniphier_v8_defconfig | uniphier-ld20-ref (default)
50LD20 Global    | uniphier_v8_defconfig | uniphier-ld20-global
51
52For example, to compile the source for PXs2 Vodka board, run the following:
53
54    $ make uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig
55    $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- DEVICE_TREE=uniphier-pxs2-vodka
56
57The device tree marked as (default) can be omitted.  `uniphier-pxs2-vodka` is
58the default device tree for the configuration `uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig`,
59so the following gives the same result.
60
61    $ make uniphier_pxs2_ld6b_defconfig
62    $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-
63

65Booting 32bit SoC boards
66------------------------
67
68The build command will generate the following:
69- u-boot.bin
70- spl/u-boot.bin
71
72U-Boot can boot UniPhier 32bit SoC boards by itself.  Flash the generated images
73to the storage device (NAND or eMMC) on your board.
74
75 - spl/u-boot-spl.bin at the offset address 0x00000000
76 - u-boot.bin         at the offset address 0x00020000
77
78The `u-boot-with-spl.bin` is the concatenation of the two (with appropriate
79padding), so you can also do:
80
81 - u-boot-with-spl.bin at the offset address 0x00000000
82
83If a TFTP server is available, the images can be easily updated.
84Just copy the u-boot-spl.bin and u-boot.bin to the TFTP public directory,
85and run the following command at the U-Boot command line:
86
87To update the images in NAND:
88
89    => run nandupdate
90
91To update the images in eMMC:
92
93    => run emmcupdate
94
95
96Booting 64bit SoC boards
97------------------------
98
99The build command will generate the following:
100- u-boot.bin
101
102However, U-Boot is not the first stage loader for UniPhier 64bit SoC boards.
103U-Boot serves as a non-secure boot loader loaded by [ARM Trusted Firmware],
104so you need to provide the `u-boot.bin` to the build command of ARM Trusted
105Firmware.

141The recommended bit switch settings are as follows:
142
143 SW2    OFF(1)/ON(0)   Description
144 ------------------------------------------
145 bit 1   <----         BKSZ[0]

151 bit 7   <----         CS1/CS5
152 bit 8   <----         SOC_SERIAL_DISABLE
153

155 ------------------------------------------
156 bit 1    <----        CS1_SPLIT
157 bit 2    <----        CASE9_ON
158 bit 3    <----        CASE10_ON
159 bit 4  Don't Care     Reserve
160 bit 5  Don't Care     Reserve
161 bit 6  Don't Care     Reserve
162 bit 7    ---->        BURST_EN
163 bit 8    ---->        FLASHBUS32_16
164
165The BKSZ[1:0] specifies the address range of memory slot and peripherals
166as follows:
167
168 BKSZ    Description              RAM slot            Peripherals
169 --------------------------------------------------------------------
170 0b00   15MB RAM / 1MB Peri    00000000-00efffff    00f00000-00ffffff
171 0b01   31MB RAM / 1MB Peri    00000000-01efffff    01f00000-01ffffff
172 0b10   64MB RAM / 1MB Peri    00000000-03efffff    03f00000-03ffffff
173 0b11  127MB RAM / 1MB Peri    00000000-07efffff    07f00000-07ffffff
174
175Set BSKZ[1:0] to 0b01 for U-Boot.
176This mode is the most handy because EA[24] is always supported by the save pin
177mode of the system bus.  On the other hand, EA[25] is not supported for some
178newer SoCs.  Even if it is, EA[25] is not connected on most of the boards.
