I'm not sure if we have a Raspberry Pi in a test farm anywhere. I should be able to look next week if no one can figure these out beforehand.
I thought that Tom had some Pis in his test farm?
I have an RPi 3, but we don't have Linux boot tests atm. I'm talking with Kevin Hilman about how I might setup kernelci to test a few things in my lab, which might catch this kind of problem sooner rather than later.
Just a note that I can repeat the CONFIG_OF_EMBED problem. I am not sure what is going on or why this would prevent the kernel booting. But I believe rpi has a device tree pass-through from the pre-U-Boot boot loader, and I am booting with that, so perhaps it relies on CONFIG_OF_EMBED in some way?
I can see some code in board_fdt_blob_setup() but it does not seem to be enabled. For me I am able to boot Linux without CONFIG_OF_EMBED.
I can also repeat the USB keyboard problem. It doesn't detect the keyboard at all. For me this can be fixed by enabling CONFIG_DM_KEYBOARD, so we should probably do that for all rpi boards.
I have sent a patch for this.
This patch looks good. I've now got working keyboard and network in u-boot along with a successful boot of Linux for the 2 devices I've tested (Original rpi and rpi3 32-bit) from the following:
* U-boot 2017.07 release * Revert "dm: arm: rpi: Drop CONFIG_OF_EMBED" (25877d4e) * Apply backported version of your patch
The rpi firmware does provide a device tree blob at boot and my only guess is that this is currently being overwritten or ignored. That's masked when CONFIG_OF_EMBED is enabled as we use an embedded device tree instead of the one provided by the rpi firmware.
For u-boot v2017.09 release is it possible to re-enable CONFIG_OF_EMBED until we can find and fix the underlying issue? Or is there some reason to avoid CONFIG_OF_EMBED?
Re the Ethernet thing, what changes when you disable that?
CONFIG_DM_ETH was disabled purely as it depends on CONFIG_DM_USB on the Raspberry Pi and I'd disabled that to work around the USB keyboard issue. With CONFIG_DM_ETH, CONFIG_DM_USB and CONFIG_DM_KEYBOARD enabled everything looks good.
Thanks,
