Hi,
Hi Shawn,
I'm running v2011.12-rc1 (with one missing usdhc patch applied) on mx6qarm2 board, and seeing a problem. When I install u-boot on a blank SD card, it boots fine with messge "*** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment" seen as expected. But once I run command 'save' to write envs to the card, the card stop booting.
I tracked the issue a little bit, and found __mmc_get_env_addr() does not get called at all. Therefore when I run 'save' for the first time, the envs are written to offset 0 of the card, which in turn overwrites the boot image.
I have not figured out why it does. But the following change fixes the problem for me.
diff --git a/common/env_mmc.c b/common/env_mmc.c index 8441c77..3832fe4 100644 --- a/common/env_mmc.c +++ b/common/env_mmc.c @@ -46,13 +46,11 @@ DECLARE_GLOBAL_DATA_PTR; #define CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET 0 #endif

- __attribute__((weak, alias("__mmc_get_env_addr")));
Any comment on why the change fixes the problem is appreciated.
The function is declared weak, this means that a specific architecture could implement its own version. The reason why it does not work is that there is a specific implementation in board/freescale/sdhc_boot.c, and the mmc_get_env_addr() in this file is taken instead of the default when CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC (as in our case) is set. Instead of your proposal, we should surround mmc_get_env_addr() in sdhc_boot.c with something like #ifndef CONFIG_MX6Q, or check if we can reuse this function, that really does not use CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET at all.
I put Jason (board maintainer) in CC - Jason, what do mind ? Do you get the same issue when you tested the board ?
Stefano, I saw the issue. Fabio's patch can fix the i.mx28evk issue, but can't fix the following platforms:
11 144 include/configs/efikamx.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 12 86 include/configs/mx51evk.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 13 58 include/configs/mx53ard.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 14 68 include/configs/mx53evk.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 15 51 include/configs/mx53loco.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 16 58 include/configs/mx53smd.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 17 48 include/configs/mx6qarm2.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 18 48 include/configs/mx6qsabrelite.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC 20 105 include/configs/vision2.h <<CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC>> #define CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC
The commit 97039ab98 (env_mmc: Allow board code to override the environment address) break the i.mx5/6 boards support.
BR, Jason
