[U-Boot] Xilinx Zed Board resets with Master

Hi
As i have seen that the Xilinx support has entered master i just tried to boot it on a Xilinx Zynx Zedboard Rev. D. The build works with the xilinx git tree so i am pretty confident that its not some issues with bootgen or the embedded fpga image.
The board loads the fpga which can be seen by the blue "done" led of the ZedBoard. But then the LED turns off and about after a second or so it just lights up shortly again to turn off again. So it seems as if the board is somehow caught in a reboot loop. Any ideas what might be wrong?
I am building with: export PATH=~/xilinx/SDK/2013.3/gnu/arm/lin/bin:$PATH export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-xilinx-linux-gnueabi- make clean make distclean make zynq_zed_config make
The BOOT.BIN is build xilinx/SDK/2013.3/bin/lin64/bootgen -image u-boot.bif -w on -o BOOT.BIN
And u-boot.bif looks like that: the_ROM_image: { [bootloader]zynq_fsbl_0.elf system.bit u-boot.elf }
Best regards Tim

mainline u-boot support is using configuration based on dts files (OF_CONTROL) And because our DTSes are almost empty in mainline I expect you are not able to see anything from u-boot. I recommend you to copy dts file from xilinx kernel and then use u-boot-dtb version. Or the second option is to remove OF_CONTROL from zynq-common.h file and then I hope you should be able to see something on console.
Thanks, Michal

Please check and may be you can try u-boot-dtb.elf.

Ok i tried this, and now the reboot loops seems to be gone. The blue "done" led now only switches "on" one time and stays on. Unfortunatly i still don't see anything on the console in this case. I can see that the registers lr 0x1d70 0x1d70 pc 0xcf6c 0xcf6c But according to the u-boot map there is nothing and i am not sure how to get information about the relocation without u-boot command line.
Or the second option is to remove OF_CONTROL from zynq-common.h file and then I hope you should be able to see something on console.
Removeing OF_CONTROL gives a compile error: xilinx/zynq/u-boot-xlnx/arch/arm/lib/board.c:633: undefined reference to `checkboard' lib/built-in.o: In function `rsa_verify_with_keynode': xilinx/zynq/u-boot-xlnx/lib/rsa/rsa-verify.c:284: undefined reference to `fdtdec_get_int'

Jagan wasn't correct on this one because one of my patch series has changed this. For static configuration (without OF_CONTROL) are driver statically defined. For DT configuration is console selection taken from DTS/DTB.

Jagan maybe knows more but I don't think u-boot-dtb.elf is generated. Just u-boot-dtb.bin is generated which should be copied as data file in xmd and not sure if binary file can be directly used for bootgen.

IMHO, there is a file u-boot-dtb (elf) generated when we build FDT u-boot I thought that can have a facility boot using BOOT.BIN.
I guess it's good to have a try.

IMHO, there is a file u-boot-dtb (elf) generated when we build FDT u-boot I thought that can have a facility boot using BOOT.BIN.
I guess it's good to have a try.
Here is how files are generated. [u-boot]$ make -j8 V=1 | grep u-boot.dtb cp dts/dt.dtb u-boot.dtb cat u-boot.bin dts/dt.dtb > u-boot-dtb.bin
u-boot.dtb is just dtb file.
[u-boot]$ ls -la u-boot* -rwxr-xr-x 1 monstr monstr 1525805 2014-03-27 14:13 u-boot -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 270608 2014-03-27 14:13 u-boot.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 11860 2014-03-27 13:00 u-boot.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 282468 2014-03-27 14:13 u-boot-dtb.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 270672 2014-03-27 14:13 u-boot.img -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 1179 2014-03-27 12:55 u-boot.lds -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 267756 2014-03-27 14:13 u-boot.map -rw-r--r-- 1 monstr monstr 811906 2014-03-27 14:13 u-boot.srec [u-boot]$ dtc -O dts -I dtb u-boot.dtb | head -n 20 /dts-v1/;

Mh, don't know how to create this kind of file?
Jagan maybe knows more but I don't think u-boot-dtb.elf is generated. Just u-boot-dtb.bin is generated which should be copied as data file in xmd and not sure if binary file can be directly used for bootgen.
If adding the dtb file in the boot.bif file is not the right way and no elf file with dtb is generated: What is the right way to generate an image for use with the SD-Card?

you can just use static u-boot configuration. I have never tried to add dtb as partition to boot.bin. If you want to use this dtb driver u-boot I would suggest you to look at u-boot SPL which should be able to handle binary formats with dtbs.
Thanks, Michal

I assume you mean static configuration a config with OF_CONTROL disabled. Ok, i have tried to boot that with bootgen. That does not work. Loading that into memory and booting it from within the debugger works though. In both cases with or without OF_CONTROL enabled.

So my main focus is to test CONFIG_ARMV7_NONSEC to boot linux in normal mode. I wanted to test recent mainline with that. So focusing on u-boot SPL is to far off my targets. So i am happy with hardware debugger loadeing for the time beeing.
Getting back to CONFIG_ARMV7_NONSEC. This is unfortunatly not working with the Zynq. Currently the board switches to monitor mode but when the u-boot switches to normal mode it jumps to PC:0xc (LR:0x10) which seems like a data abort exeption or some other secure mode violation exception? Is there a good way to find out what happened? I am currently stuck with this and my local FAE has also no idea. Attached is a patch which at least works until the return from the monitor mode.
Best regards Tim

ok. I am not using bootgen that's why good that you have at least one config which is working. Feel free to use xilinx u-boot from github which is synchronized with mainline code.

yes I know. I have got an email from you some days ago but haven't answered it yet. I haven't played with it but at least I am aware about the code which is working on zynq. Look at this repo https://github.com/serngawy/OpenVirtualization it is secure monitor code which does exactly what you have described switching from monitor mode to normal mode.
Albert could know more about proper u-boot behaviour how this should be handled.
Thanks, Michal

Just a small information: I can boot a OF_CONTROL on a RevC Zynq Board but not Rev. D. So i can at least confirm that a board with RevC boots a mainline u-boot with OF_CONTROL disabled. I have no idea why the bootgen for the Rev. D board fails even if i have replaced the bitstream for the non eng. sample FPGA. But at least that also works when loaded with an HW-Debugger.

Interesting. Please use xilinx forums then can help you.
