[U-Boot] [RFC] odroid DTB support

Hi Przemyslaw,
I would like to add DTB support for odroid board to be able to boot upstream kernel easily.
I see 2 ways to do it: * Add CONFIG_ENV_VARS_UBOOT_RUNTIME_CONFIG support to set 'board_rev' and 'board_name' env vars. Then, you need a 'findfdt' script to check 'board_rev' and set fdtfile accordingly (as done for OMAP4 panda board) * Set fdtfile name directly (as done for rpi or igep00x0).
What would you prefer?
Guillaume

Is, that the reason of adding the boot script by your last patches? If, yes then it's not needed. Odroid supports mainline kernel booting.
Just put kernel image and fdt file with it's proper (default) name to boot partition and wait for autoboot command to execute. This just work with defaults.
Also you can use itb image, to have a single boot image.
Best regards,

No, we need a boot script, because this is the way we boot our openSUSE images (we boot with an initrd and some special bootargs).

Just put kernel image and fdt file with it's proper (default) name to boot partition and wait for autoboot command to execute. This just work with defaults.
I cannot find where fdtfile is defined. Could you point me, please? I only found it for XU3 version. Not for U3/X2 version. Maybe, it is in DFU infos? If so, how to get fdtfile info, so that we can boot from our bootscript?
Also you can use itb image, to have a single boot image.
No, we use zImage + DTB + initrd from a bootscript.
Guillaume

Hang on, exynos stuff uses the generic distro hooks. Can you take a look at doc/README.distro and see what openSUSE can hook into / provide some feedback on what needs doing? Thanks!

This is true for odroid XU3 (Exynos5 based) but Odroid U3/X2 (Exynos4 based) has no generic distro hooks at the moment.
What we need: * Boot on boot.scr (mainly to define kernel name, initrd name and bootargs) * Use (pre-defined) fdtfile, or be able to define it manually if not already set (or not in sync with Linux kernel)

This is true for odroid XU3 (Exynos5 based) but Odroid U3/X2 (Exynos4 based) has no generic distro hooks at the moment.
What we need:
- Boot on boot.scr (mainly to define kernel name, initrd name and bootargs)
If you need some more, than the above, then using boot.scr is required, but if not, then U-Boot provides this all at default.
- Use (pre-defined) fdtfile, or be able to define it manually if not
already set (or not in sync with Linux kernel)
Guillaume
For odroid_defconfig, the basic things are done automatically.
The variables: - $fdtfile - $boardname are set automatically and are consistent with the mainline kernel file names, so for U3 the fdtfile is set as "exynos4412-odroidu3.dtb". If you have u/zImage and fdtfile on the first partition(boot), then it just boot with defaults. If you need some more features, then you can use multi config itb format.
The initrd is also loaded automatically.
All images must be stored on $boot partition
Best regards,

No, exynos-common pulls in generic distro. And in the event of boards that do not the answer is to pull in the generic distro framework.

It seems that exynos-common includes only "config_distro_defaults.h", not "config_distro_bootcmd.h". And "config_distro_bootcmd.h" is needed for generic distro boot flow. Am I missing something?

Tom, it's true that, exynos5-common.h defines the CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS, which provides "BOOTENV". Odroid XU3 redefines CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS, but in the fact it uses the same settings, appended by some private env variables.
Guillaume, You're right, Exynos4 boards doesn't use the generic distro boot commands. And each board defines CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS.
All boards works with the mainline kernel by default, so it's not a high priority for us to switch it to common env, but will do this soon.
You can check the bootscript example in the directory: board/samsung/common/bootscripts/
As temporary, your patch for Odroid can be applied to support the boot.scr, but anyway it support mainline kernel and probably can boot Ubuntu images.
Some mainline release of U-Boot is used for Arch Linux images for Odroid U3, you can check the changes for ARCH here:
https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/alarm/uboot-odroid/000...
So if you need write custom boot.scr, maybe this will help you.
One more thing, if you need append the bootargs for your kernel, then you can set the $opts variable which is always appended to bootargs.
Best regards,

Big patches! ^^ openSUSE workflow is different. We try to minimize source patches, upstream our patches and do our custom things in boot scripts which is much more flexible. Our boot.scr is (nearly) ready. The only thing missing is the fdtfile definition (which is board dependent). We hardcoded it to U3 version for now to make tests but this should be fixed.

ok.
You can check the bootscript example in the directory: board/samsung/common/bootscripts/
Here, if $fdtfile is not defined, then it boots without it. This won't work for us, since we need DTB (kernel multiplatform enabled).
Right, because it supports both fdt and non-fdt kernel images, the second one is to support old Hardkernel zImages.
Odroid XU3 defines fdtfile in board config extra envs, but the U3 sets it automatically on boot, since it supports both X2 and U3, the name depends on the board detection. This part of code is in set_board_info() in board/samsung/common/misc.c.
This is working well, if you have a minimum files on the boot partition (mmc 0:1): - zImage - exynos4412-odroidu3.dtb
then you will see: ---------------------------------------------------------------
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 reading exynos4412-odroidu3.dtb 46356 bytes read in 415 ms (108.4KiB/s) reading uInitrd ** Unable to read file uInitrd ** reading zImage 5161952 bytes read in 685 ms (7.2 MiB/s) Kernel image @ 0x40007fc0 [ 0x000000 - 0x4ec3e0] ## Flattened Device Tree blob at 40800000 Booting using the fdt blob at 0x40800000 Loading Device Tree to 4fff1000, end 4ffff513 ... OK
Starting kernel ...
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
---------------------------------------------------------------
After apply your patches and put the menioned boot.scr I can see this:
--------------------------------------------------------------- Hit any key to stop autoboot:0 reading boot.scr 3034 bytes read in 312 ms (8.8 KiB/s) ## Executing script at 42000000 Found kernel image: zImage reading exynos4412-odroidu3.dtb 46356 bytes read in 415 ms (108.4 KiB/s) Warning!

So this works for my setup. Maybe you have a problem with the filesystem?
Please check it manual if you can load dtb file, if not, maybe you should do mkfs.ext4/vfat on your boot partition to clean in, and then check again.
As temporary, your patch for Odroid can be applied to support the boot.scr, but anyway it support mainline kernel and probably can boot Ubuntu images.
Yes, please apply it to get boot.scr support until odroid switch to generic boot system.
Yes, I will ack your patches. Do you use DFU or Lthor tools? If, not this is useful tool, for testing e.g. your boot scripts, and then you should add boot.scr to CONFIG_DFU_ALT(odroid.h), near the uInitrd entry.
Some mainline release of U-Boot is used for Arch Linux images for Odroid U3, you can check the changes for ARCH here:
https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/alarm/uboot-odroid/000...
So if you need write custom boot.scr, maybe this will help you.

Ok, that's good approach.

No, we need a boot script, because this is the way we boot our openSUSE images (we boot with an initrd and some special bootargs).
Hang on, exynos stuff uses the generic distro hooks. Can you take a look at doc/README.distro and see what openSUSE can hook into / provide some feedback on what needs doing? Thanks!

Ah, good point, OK, thanks. Yes, instead of introducing more changes, all of these boards should be migrated to config_distro_bootcmd so that they just work in openSUSE or Arch or Ubuntu or Fedora or whatever.
