How to Update U-Boot on Pico-imx6ul board
-----------------------------------------
Required software on the host PC:
- imx_usb_loader: https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader
- dfu-util: http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/
Build U-Boot for Pico:
$ make mrproper
$ make pico-imx6ul_defconfig
$ make
This generates the SPL and u-boot-dtb.img binaries.
1. Loading U-Boot via USB Serial Download Protocol
Note: This method is convenient for development purposes.
If the eMMC has already a U-Boot flashed with DFU support then
the user can go to step 2 below in order to update U-Boot.
Put pico board in USB download mode (refer to the document
https://www.nxp.com/files-static/32bit/doc/quick_start_guide/PICO-IMX6UL-QSG.pdf
Figure 6a at page 7).
Connect a USB to serial adapter between the host PC and pico.
Connect a USB cable between the OTG pico port and the host PC.
Open a terminal program such as minicom.
Copy SPL and u-boot-dtb.img to the imx_usb_loader folder.
Load the SPL binary via USB:
$ sudo ./imx_usb SPL
Load the u-boot-dtb.img binary via USB:
$ sudo ./imx_usb u-boot-dtb.img
Then U-Boot starts and its messages appear in the console program.
Use the default environment variables:
=> env default -f -a
=> saveenv
2. Flashing U-Boot into the eMMC
Run the DFU agent so we can flash the new images using dfu-util tool:
=> dfu 0 mmc 0
Flash SPL and u-boot-dtb.img into the eMMC running the following commands on a PC:
$ sudo dfu-util -D SPL -a spl
$ sudo dfu-util -D u-boot-dtb.img -a u-boot
Remove power from the pico board.
Put pico board into normal boot mode.
Power up the board and the new updated U-Boot should boot from eMMC.
Booting in Falcon mode
======================
Generate a uImage kernel:
$ make imx_v6_v7_defconfig (Using the default imx_v6_v7_defconfig configuration
just for an example. In order to boot faster the user should customize the
defconfig by only enabling the minimal required drivers).
$ make -j4 uImage LOADADDR=0x80008000
$ cp arch/arm/boot/uImage /tftpboot
$ cp arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6ul-pico-hobbit.dtb /tftpboot
In the U-Boot prompt:
Setup the server and board IP addresses:
=> setenv serverip 192.168.0.10
=> setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.11
Get the dtb file:
=> tftp ${fdt_addr} imx6ul-pico-hobbit.dtb
Get the kernel:
=> tftp ${loadaddr} uImage
Write the kernel at 2MB offset:
=> mmc write ${loadaddr} 0x1000 0x5000
Setup the bootargs:
=> setenv bootargs 'console=ttymxc5,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait rw'
Prepare args:
=> spl export fdt ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr}
## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 82000000 ...
Image Name: Linux-4.19.0-rc2-next-20180905-0
Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
Data Size: 8365608 Bytes = 8 MiB
Load Address: 80008000
Entry Point: 80008000
Verifying Checksum ... OK
## Flattened Device Tree blob at 83000000
Booting using the fdt blob at 0x83000000
Loading Kernel Image ... OK
Using Device Tree in place at 83000000, end 83009c63
subcommand not supported
subcommand not supported
Using Device Tree in place at 83000000, end 8300cc63
Argument image is now in RAM: 0x83000000
Write 1MB of args data (0x800 sectors) to 1MB offset (0x800 sectors):
=> mmc write ${fdt_addr} 0x800 0x800
In order to boot with Falcon mode, activate the CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT
option in the defconfig
--- a/configs/pico-hobbit-imx6ul_defconfig
+++ b/configs/pico-hobbit-imx6ul_defconfig
@@ -53,3 +53,4 @@ CONFIG_USB_GADGET_VENDOR_NUM=0x0525
CONFIG_USB_GADGET_PRODUCT_NUM=0xa4a5
CONFIG_CI_UDC=y
CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT=y
+CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT=y
Then rebuild U-Boot:
$ make pico-hobbit-imx6ul_defconfig
$ make -j4
Launch UMS:
=> ums 0 mmc 0
Flash the new binaries:
$ sudo dd if=SPL of=/dev/sdX bs=1k seek=1; sync
$ sudo dd if=u-boot-dtb.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1k seek=69; sync
And then SPL binary will load and jump directly to the kernel:
