U-Boot for the Nvidia Tegra Note 7
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
Quick Start
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- Build U-Boot
|
|
- Boot U-Boot by loading it into RAM (coldboot)
|
|
- Chainloading U-Boot from the vendor bootloader
|
|

|
|
|
|
Build U-Boot
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
U-Boot can be built in two forms: U-Boot with SPL, which is used for booting
|
|
by loading directly into RAM and U-Boot without SPL, which can be flashed
|
|
and chainloaded from the vendor bootloader.
|
|
|
|
To build U-Boot with SPL proseed:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-eabi-
|
|
$ make tegratab_defconfig
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
After the build succeeds, you will obtain the final ``u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin``
|
|
file, ready for cold booting by loading into RAM.
|
|
|
|
To build U-Boot without SPL adjust tegratab_defconfig:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block::
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_TEXT_BASE=0x80A00000
|
|
CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT=y
|
|
# CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP is not set
|
|
CONFIG_TEGRA_PRAM=y
|
|
|
|
After the build succeeds, you will obtain the final ``u-boot-dtb.bin`` file,
|
|
ready for booting with fastboot boot or which can be further processed into
|
|
a flashable boot.img.
|
|
|
|
Boot U-Boot by loading it into RAM (coldboot)
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Done fairly simply by using fusee-tools (using run_bootloader.sh) and placing
|
|
``u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin`` generated on the previous step into fusee-tools dir.
|
|
This method requires constant access to the host PC or payloader and can fully
|
|
eliminate influence of the vendor bootloader onto the boot process.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ ./run_bootloader.sh -s T114 -t ./bct/tegratab.bct
|
|
|
|
Chainloading U-Boot from the vendor bootloader
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
``u-boot-dtb.bin`` has to be further packed into Android boot image form,
|
|
where ``u-boot-dtb.bin`` acts as kernel, while dtb and ramdisk parts should
|
|
not be included. Then the generated boot image can be flashed into the /boot
|
|
partition of the tablet using vendor bootloader's fastboot and will act as
|
|
the bootloader of the last stage.
|
|
|
|
Boot
|
|
----
|
|
In both cases after U-Boot obtains control it performs search of extlinux.conf
|
|
first on the dock USB device is available, then on MicroSD card if available
|
|
and lastly on eMMC. If none of the devices above are present, then the device
|
|
is turned off.
|
|
|
|
If during boot of U-Boot Volume Down button is pressed, the device will enter
|
|
U-Boot bootmenu.
