U-Boot for Amlogic P201
=======================
P201 is a reference board manufactured by Amlogic with the following
specifications:
- Amlogic S905 ARM Cortex-A53 quad-core SoC @ 1.5GHz
- ARM Mali 450 GPU
- 2GB DDR3 SDRAM
- 10/100 Ethernet
- HDMI 2.0 4K/60Hz display
- 2 x USB 2.0 Host
- eMMC, microSD
- Infrared receiver
- SDIO WiFi Module
- CVBS+Stereo Audio Jack
Schematics are available from Amlogic on demand.
U-Boot compilation
------------------
.. code-block:: bash
$ export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf-
$ make p201_defconfig
$ make
Image creation
--------------
For simplified usage, pleaser refer to :doc:`pre-generated-fip` with codename `p201`
Amlogic doesn't provide sources for the firmware and for tools needed
to create the bootloader image, so it is necessary to obtain them from
the git tree published by the board vendor:
.. code-block:: bash
$ wget https://releases.linaro.org/archive/13.11/components/toolchain/binaries/gcc-linaro-aarch64-none-elf-4.8-2013.11_linux.tar.xz
$ wget https://releases.linaro.org/archive/13.11/components/toolchain/binaries/gcc-linaro-arm-none-eabi-4.8-2013.11_linux.tar.xz
$ tar xvfJ gcc-linaro-aarch64-none-elf-4.8-2013.11_linux.tar.xz
$ tar xvfJ gcc-linaro-arm-none-eabi-4.8-2013.11_linux.tar.xz
$ export PATH=$PWD/gcc-linaro-aarch64-none-elf-4.8-2013.11_linux/bin:$PWD/gcc-linaro-arm-none-eabi-4.8-2013.11_linux/bin:$PATH
$ git clone https://github.com/BayLibre/u-boot.git -b n-amlogic-openlinux-20170606 amlogic-u-boot
$ cd amlogic-u-boot
$ make gxb_p201_v1_defconfig
$ make
$ export FIPDIR=$PWD/fip
Go back to mainline U-boot source tree then :
.. code-block:: bash
$ mkdir fip
$ cp $FIPDIR/gxb/bl2.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/gxb/acs.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/gxb/bl21.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/gxb/bl30.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/gxb/bl301.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/gxb/bl31.img fip/
$ cp u-boot.bin fip/bl33.bin
$ $FIPDIR/blx_fix.sh \
fip/bl30.bin \
fip/zero_tmp \
fip/bl30_zero.bin \
fip/bl301.bin \
fip/bl301_zero.bin \
fip/bl30_new.bin \
bl30
$ python $FIPDIR/acs_tool.pyc fip/bl2.bin fip/bl2_acs.bin fip/acs.bin 0
$ $FIPDIR/blx_fix.sh \
fip/bl2_acs.bin \
fip/zero_tmp \
fip/bl2_zero.bin \
fip/bl21.bin \
fip/bl21_zero.bin \
fip/bl2_new.bin \
bl2
$ $FIPDIR/fip_create --bl30 fip/bl30_new.bin --bl31 fip/bl31.img --bl33 fip/bl33.bin fip/fip.bin
$ cat fip/bl2_new.bin fip/fip.bin >fip/boot_new.bin
$ $FIPDIR/gxb/aml_encrypt_gxb --bootsig --input fip/boot_new.bin --output fip/u-boot.bin
and then write the image to SD with:
.. code-block:: bash
$ DEV=/dev/your_sd_device
$ dd if=fip/u-boot.bin.sd.bin of=$DEV conv=fsync,notrunc bs=512 skip=1 seek=1
$ dd if=fip/u-boot.bin.sd.bin of=$DEV conv=fsync,notrunc bs=1 count=444
