From: Jagan Teki <jagan@amarulasolutions.com>

Add initial support for Engicam i.CoreM6 Quad/Dual board
with below features:
- U-Boot 2017.01
- Linux 4.10
- Default packages from buildroot

Changes for v3:
- Rename icore with common, since creating a folder with the name of
  SOM is not make sense, becuase the defconfig is the only change.
- Update readme.txt, post-images.sh, engicam_imx6q_icore_defconfig as per
  above change.
- rebased on master
Changes for v2:
- Created icorem6 family board on engicam
- Added Quad/Dual SOM boards support
- Created well defined readme.tx with referance to board/freescale/imx6q-sabresd/
- s/imx6q_icore_defconfig/engicam_/imx6q_icore_defconfig
- Updated DEVELOPERS file
- Created genimage.cfg with added SPL and u-boot-dtb.img partitions
- Removed Latest source configs and updated with fixed version source for U-Boot, Linux
- Add board link on readme.txt
- Removed BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_TAR_XZ=y
- Created post-image.sh with referance to board/freescale/imx6q-sabresd/

+*****************************************
+Buildroot for Engicam i.MX6 SOM platforms:
+*****************************************
+
+This file documents the Buildroot support for all Engicam i.MX6 SOM
+platform boards.
+
+i.CoreM6 Quad/Dual SOM Starter kits:
+http://www.engicam.com/en/products/embedded/som/sodimm/i-core-m6s-dl-d-q
+
+This configuration uses U-Boot mainline and kernel mainline.
+
+Build
+=====
+
+First, configure Buildroot for the Engicam i.MX SOM's:
+
+- for i.CoreM6 Quad/Dual:
+
+  make engicam_imx6q_icore_defconfig
+
+Build all components:
+
+  make
+
+You will find the following files in output/images/:
+- for i.CoreM6 Quad/Dual:
+  - imx6q-icore.dtb
+  - rootfs.ext4
+  - rootfs.tar
+  - sdcard.img
+  - SPL
+  - u-boot-dtb.img
+  - uImage
+
+Create a bootable SD card
+=========================
+
+To determine the device associated to the SD card have a look in the
+/proc/partitions file:
+
+  cat /proc/partitions
+
+Buildroot prepares a bootable "sdcard.img" image in the output/images/
+directory, ready to be dumped on a SD card. Launch the following
+command as root:
+
+  dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/<your-sd-device>
+
+*** WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care! ***
+
+For details about the medium image layout, see the definition in
+board/freescale/common/imx/genimage.cfg.template.
+
+Boot the i.CoreM6 boards with SD boot:
+=====================================
+
+To boot your newly created system:
+- insert the SD card in the SD slot of the board;
+- connect 3-wire RS232 serial port J28 on board, and connect with other
+  serial end or USB cable(if serial-to-usb converter used) using
+  a terminal emulator at 115200 bps, 8n1;
+- close JM3 for sd boot.
+- power on the board.
+
+Enjoy!

Thanks, looking better.

Why do we have this 'common' folder, and this very flexible script? Do
you intend to submit the support for other boards?

This script is exactly the same as the one in
board/freescale/common/imx/post-image.sh, I definitely would like to
avoid duplication.

For now, if you're trying to submit the support for a single board, I
would suggest that you:

 1. Use a "fixed" genimage.cfg, i.e without %FILES% or %DTBS%

 2. Use support/scripts/genimage.sh

Since you're using a 4.10 kernel, you also need to set:

BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_LINUX_HEADERS_CUSTOM_4_10=y

Best regards,

Thomas

I would like to add more boards in couple of days, the main intention
of adding common is to place file for common if any specific board
have any specific changes I will create board name file.

Same, but calling genimage.cfg is different in engicam vs freescale common.

I will submit remaining boards soon, so I will keep the genimage.cfg as it is.

What prevents you from using the Freescale common genimage.cfg?

 Then it's better to add the path to genimage.cfg.template as an argument to the
genimage script (with a default of the current template, so you don't need to
update all the existing defconfigs).

 Better yet, factor this feature into support/scripts/genimage.sh, by adding
extra flag arguments for the dtb-list and linux-image features. That's a bit
more complicated, of course. If you do this, it would be nice to also update the
existing freescale defconfigs, but not strictly necessary.

 I'm adding Etienne in Cc, he's also working on defconfig refactoring for genimage.

 BTW, a better way to get the values is to use printvars (which works now). In
the script, you can do e.g.:

eval $(make -s O="${BASE_DIR}" printvars VARS="LINUX_IMAGE_NAME KERNEL_DTBS")

and you get the LINUX_IMAGE_NAME and KERNEL_DTBS variables in your environment.


 Regards,
 Arnout

Freescale script doesn't suport SPL and dtb enabled u-boot.

  partition SPL {
    in-partition-table = "no"
    image = "SPL"
    offset = 1024
  }

  partition u-boot-dtb {
    in-partition-table = "no"
    image = "u-boot-dtb.img"
    offset = 69K
  }

thanks!
