[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 0/7] Enable falcon boot for LS1043ARDB

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 0/7] Enable falcon boot for LS1043ARDB

[York Sun]

This is the 2nd version to enable falcon boot for LS1043ARDB. With
SPL FIT patches merged, enabling falcon boot for this board is
straight forward after fixing some errors introduced by other
commits.

Secure boot is dropped in this set due to SPL image size issue.
Recent changes made the SPL image bigger and the secure boot image
doesn't fit any more. A follow-up patch set will enable secure boot
if the image can be future trimmed to fit.

Changes in v2:
New patch to fix spl after rebasing to latest master.
New patch to fix compiling error after rebasing to latest mater.
New patch to fix gd->ram_size error after rebasing to latest mater.
Drop checking secure boot in this patch after rebasing to latest mater.
Recent change in SPL makes the image size bigger.
Relace getenv_f() with env_get_f() after rebasing to latet master.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/7] spl: fix assignment of board info to global data

[York Sun]

This partially reverts commit 15eb1d43bf470b85e9031c2fce7e0ce7b27dd321
which intended to move assignment of board info earlier, into
board_init_r(). However, function preload_console_init() is called
either from spl_board_init() or from board_init_f(). For the latter
case, the board info assignment is much earlier than board_init_r().
Moving such assignment to board_init_r() would be moving it later.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 3/7] armv8: fsl-layerscape: Avoid running dram_init_banksize again

[York Sun]

gd->ram_size is reduced in this function to reserve secure memory.
Avoid running this function again to further reduce memory size.
This fixes issue for SPL boot with PPA image loaded in which case
secure memory is incorrectly allocated due to repeated calling.

+Falcon boot option
+------------------
+Falcon boot is a short cut boot method for SD/eMMC targets. It skips loading the
+RAM version U-Boot. Instead, it loads FIT image and boot directly to Linux.
+CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT enables falcon boot. CONFIG_SPL_LOAD_FIT enables the FIT
+image support (also need CONFIG_SPL_OF_LIBFDT, CONFIG_SPL_FIT and optionally
+CONFIG_SPL_GZIP).
+
+To enable falcon boot, a hook function spl_start_uboot() returns 0 to indicate
+booting U-Boot is not the first choice. The kernel FIT image needs to be put
+at CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR. SPL mmc driver reads the header to
+determine if this is a FIT image. If true, FIT image components are parsed and
+copied or decompressed (if applicable) to their desitinations. If FIT image is
+not found, normal U-Boot flow will follow.
+
+An important part of falcon boot is to prepare the device tree. A normal U-Boot
+does FDT fixups when booting Linux. For falcon boot, Linux boots directly from
+SPL, skipping the normal U-Boot. The device tree has to be prepared in advance.
+A command "spl export" should be called under the normal RAM version U-Boot.
+It is equivalent to go through "bootm" step-by-step until device tree fixup is
+done. The device tree in memory is the one needed for falcon boot. Falcon boot
+flow suggests to save this image to SD/eMMC at the location pointed by macro
+CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTOR, with maximum size specified by macro
+CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_ARGS_SECTORS. However, when FIT image is used for
+Linux, the device tree stored in FIT image overwrites the memory loaded by spl
+driver from these sectors. We could change this loading order to favor the
+stored sectors. But when secure boot is enabled, these sectors are used for
+signature header and needs to be loaded before the FIT image. So it is important
+to understand the device tree in FIT image should be the one actually used, or
+leave it abscent to favor the stored sectors. It is easier to deploy the FIT
+image with embedded static device tree to multiple boards.
+
+Macro CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR serves two purposes. One is the pointer to load
+the stored sectors to. Normally this is the static device tree. The second
+purpose is the memory location of signature header for secure boot. After the
+FIT image is loaded into memory, it is validated against the signature header
+before individual components are extracted (and optionally decompressed) into
+their final memory locations, respectivelly. After the validation, the header
+is no longer used. The static device tree is copied into this location. So
+this macro is passed as the location of device tree when booting Linux.
+
+Steps to prepare static device tree
+-----------------------------------
+To prepare the static device tree for Layerscape boards, it is important to
+understand the fixups in U-Boot. Memory size and location, as well as reserved
+memory blocks are added/updated. Ethernet MAC addressed are updated. FMan
+microcode (if used) is embedded in the device tree. Kernel command line and
+initrd information are embedded. Others including CPU status, boot method,
+Ethernet port status, etc. are also updated.
+
+Following normal booting process, all variables are set, all images are loaded
+before "bootm" command would be issued to boot, run command
+
+spl export fdt <address>
+
+where the address is the location of FIT image. U-Boot goes through the booting
+process as if "bootm start", "bootm loados", "bootm ramdisk"... commands but
+stops before "bootm go". There we have the fixed-up device tree in memory.
+We can check the device tree header by these commands
+
+fdt addr <fdt address>
+fdt header
+
+Where the fdt address is the device tree in memory. It is printed by U-Boot.
+It is useful to know the exact size. One way to extract this static device
+tree is to save it to eMMC/SD using command in U-Boot, and extract under Linux
+with these commands, repectivelly
+
+mmc write <address> <sector> <sectors>
+dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=<filename> bs=512 skip=<sector> count=<sectors>
+
+Note, U-Boot takes values as hexadecimals while Linux takes them as decimals by
+default. If using NAND or other storage, the commands are slightly different.
+When we have the static device tree image, we can re-make the FIT image with
+it. It is important to specify the load addresses in FIT image for every
+components. Otherwise U-Boot cannot load them correctly.
+
+Generate FIT image with static device tree
+------------------------------------------
+Example:
+
+/dts-v1/;
+
+/ {
+	description = "Image file for the LS1043A Linux Kernel";
+	#address-cells = <1>;
+
+	images {
+		kernel at 1 {
+			description = "ARM64 Linux kernel";
+			data = /incbin/("./arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz");
+			type = "kernel";
+			arch = "arm64";
+			os = "linux";
+			compression = "gzip";
+			load = <0x80080000>;
+			entry = <0x80080000>;
+		};
+		fdt at 1 {
+			description = "Flattened Device Tree blob";
+			data = /incbin/("./fsl-ls1043ardb-static.dtb");
+			type = "flat_dt";
+			arch = "arm64";
+			compression = "none";
+			load = <0x90000000>;
+		};
+		ramdisk at 1 {
+			description = "LS1043 Ramdisk";
+                        data = /incbin/("./rootfs.cpio.gz");
+			type = "ramdisk";
+			arch = "arm64";
+			os = "linux";
+			compression = "gzip";
+			load = <0xa0000000>;
+		};
+	};
+
+	configurations {
+		default = "config at 1";
+		config at 1 {
+			description = "Boot Linux kernel";
+			kernel = "kernel at 1";
+			fdt = "fdt at 1";
+			ramdisk = "ramdisk at 1";
+			loadables = "fdt", "ramdisk";
+		};
+	};
+};
+
+The "loadables" is not optional. It tells SPL which images to load into memory.
+
+Other things to consider
+-----------------------
+Falcon boot skips a lot of initialization in U-Boot. If Linux expects the
+hardware to be initialized by U-Boot, the related code should be ported to SPL
+build. For example, if Linux expect Ethernet PHY to be initialized in U-Boot
+(which is not a common case), the PHY initialization has to be included in
+falcon boot. This increases the SPL image size and should be handled carefully.
+If Linux has PHY driver enabled, it still depends on the correct MDIO bus setup
+in U-Boot. Normal U-Boot sets the MDC ratio to generate a proper clock signal.

Update defconfig to enable falcon boot, add needed macros to board
header file. Because environment variables are not avaiable during
SPL stage for SD boot, set "boot_os=y" as default.

It seems odd that enabling the console sets this data.

What was the impact of moving it later for your board?

gd->bd is used to track the dram bank information. With this moved 
later, I cannot track the secure memory reserved. I need this available 
before memory is initialized.

I don't know the history of this line. But it seems this the common

The intention of 15eb1d43b was to move it earlier. But it turns out 
function preloader_console_init() is called from different places. Some 
are very early in board_init_f(). I guess we can add a new function just 
to set gd->bd if it is empty, and call this function when needed. What's 
your suggestion here?

Yes I think an explicit function is best.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 5/7] armv8: layerscape: Eanble falcon boot

[Łukasz Majewski]

Hi York,

If you don't mind, I would like to ask you for some help and 
clarification regarding your work.

I'm trying to do the same on imx6q board (armv7).

I've not yet go to this point -> Please look into below comments.

I'm just curious - how can I specify the DTBs precedence? I mean how to 
decide if one from FIT or from eMMC sector are used?

I'm trying to load fitImage (with kernel + 2 dtbs) from eMMC directly by 
SPL. The fitImage has been generated with OE-core recipe. The same 
results are with one generated with mkimage.

			^^^^ common/spl/spl_fit.c - function spl_load_fit_image()
			requires "data-offset" and "data-size" properties to be defined - 
otherwise we exit with -ENOENT.

Even when creating my fitImage with u-boot's mkimage those properties 
haven't been added.

			^^^
			Isn't here loadables require "kernel", "fdt", "ramdisk" ?

Could you share how have you managed to load fitImage from SPL? Maybe 
I'm missing some patches? Is there any "reference" repo, so I could see 
the "complete" work?

By the order of loading ARGS first, then FIT. If you have static device 
tree in FIT image, it can overwrite the image loaded from ARGS. For my 
testing, I have verified FIT image without device tree in which case the 
device tree is loaded from ARGS.

I thought we fixed that. In my previous patch set I added FIT support. 
The data-offset is used for external data (i.e. data is outside of FIT 
structure, eg. U-Boot). For Linux FIT image, the data is embedded. See 
spl_load_fit_image().

Because data-offset is not used for embedded data.

I put the FIT image at CONFIG_SYS_MMCSD_RAW_MODE_KERNEL_SECTOR, see 
patch 7 in this series. With correct configuration, U-Boot SPL code 
looks for FIT image at this location. If not found, it continues to boot 
U-Boot RAM version as before. If found, falcon boot kicks in.

I have a temporary repo for debugging. See 
https://github.com/yorksun/u-boot/commits/test_patches. The code base 
has changed so this one will not be there for long.
