pine64's Issues

How-to activate USB and/or SDIO?

I'd like to get a network device up and running on the p64 (before setting up something like PPP/SLIP over UART).

Failed to boot with the pine64_linux-20160121.img.xz image

Hi,
I tried to boot my Pine64+ 2GB with your pine64_linux-20160121.img.xz image (MD5 sum: f6d2914894a62d08a16c95495248702e)
I have the UART0 connected and can see the debug message and U-Boot prompt time out.
However, it stops forever after showing "Starting kernel ..." and two INFO logs.
I think the expected result should be a Debian installer.
The complete log is attached, do you have any idea?
Thanks!

This repo contains some useful scripts and tools in the tools/ subdirectory.
Wouldn't it be better to add them to the linux-sunxi/sunxi-tools repository instead?

How it is created

Hi,
First I wanna thank you for this fantastic work, that's what I was waitinf for for my board.
I just want to know if it's possible that you share how you did it and explain all the steps followed.
thanks in advance,

Readonly Filesystem

Hey there!

It seems that after copying a rootfs (debian jessie, in my case) to the /dev/sdd10 partition (which I have formatted to ext4 via gparted) of the SD card, and following the instructions laid out in the readme, the board successfully boots into a linux shell. The issue, however, is that the partition the rootfs is located on is in readonly mode. Is there a step I'm missing, or is it to do with the way the partition was formatted?

Thanks,
~Jaci

Although you image starts with a valid partition table, the filesystems seem to be unmountable.
Any ideas?

DTB Woes

Thanks for all your work on this! I've been trying to get your u-boot image to work for me for booting the mainline kernel from Debian (linux-image-4.14.0-0.bpo.3-arm64), and I've been having a lot of trouble, I think because of problems with DTB.

The DTB that you bundle with the image seems to actually work for me. That is, if I boot with booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdtcontroladdr everything seems to work well. However, I don't want to have to boot from the u-boot command line, and it seems like the best way to boot from an editable text file is with extlinux.conf. If fdt_addr were set to the value of fdtcontroladdr, then it would automatically load that one, but it's not and I don't know how to change the default environment built into the image. I also don't know how to get that DTB as a file; based on the commit message in ee12bea it looks like you applied a lot of custom patches to produce the image you provide.

I've also tried using other DTBs I've found, to no avail. CallMeFoxie provides a DTB and kernel as part of her image (https://github.com/CallMeFoxie/pine64-mainline-project), and they work together, but her DTB doesn't work with the Debian kernel. I've also tried using the DTB that Debian ships with their kernel package, as well as building the DTB myself from u-boot sources, and none of those work. Here, "doesn't work" means that after boot, either the Ethernet or the MMC (or both) don't work at all and don't show up.

I've tried following the instructions in your README, but that doesn't produce the same thing as the image you provide. If you can help me, I'd really appreciate it, as I need some help. An explanation of what might be going wrong with the DTBs would be great. A more comprehensive description of how to generate the image you provide would be great. The actual DTB as a file would be great. An explanation of how to change the default environment would be great. Really, any help you can provide would help tremendously.

eFuses?

Hi, I hope you don't mind me reaching out in this way. Somebody on IRC mentioned that you had experimented with burning the e-fuses in the Allwinner A64 a couple years ago to try to use signed boot for your own purposes. I don't know whether you still use IRC, but I would love to continue this work. Is there a chance we could sync about how far you got?

I did see some wiki pages which may have been written by you, detailing how the SoC's boot0 uses the fuses and the format of the signed binaries it's expecting. It's the electrical characteristics that I specifically don't see information about anywhere. I'm prepared to buy a bunch of devices and damage them to figure out voltage and stuff, but I thought it would be best to talk to someone who's tried it first.

I totally understand if you don't have time to talk, or if this was just too long ago and there's nothing useful you can tell me. Either way, thanks in advance!

Any chance to integrate the eth fix into the 4.x kernel tree?

Hi,

some Pine64 boards need a fix in order to gain acceptable network speed. Is there any chance to integrate this fix into the 4.x kernel tree?

Cheers

idea to circumvent the u-boot dtb issue

Hi,

thank you for doing all the bootstrapping work for the pine64.

I have an idea to circumvent the u-boot dtb issue. On ARMv7 it is possible to append the device tree binary to the kernel image directly via:

CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB=y
CONFIG_ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT=y
# CONFIG_ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT_CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER is not set
CONFIG_ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT_CMDLINE_EXTEND=y

and just invoke

boot[m,z] $loadaddr

after loading the kernel image.

U-Boot comes up with MMC2 device

I built the firmware image according to the description in README.md from the git repo (tag v2021.07-rc3 which happened to be the current master at that time). Config is pine64_plus_defconfig

This went well, but for some reason the device mmc@1c0f000, which is the only enabled mmc device in the device tree, comes up as MMC device 2 in U-Boot:

Hit any key to stop autoboot:  0 
=> mmc list
mmc@1c0f000: 2 (SD)

I can then force to boot from that device using:

=> devnum=2
=> run mmc_boot

In Linux (Fedora 34), the device is /dev/mmcblk2 as well. One thing is odd: The device tree
defines an alias for mmc1:

[root@pine64 ~]# ls /proc/device-tree/aliases/
ethernet0  mmc1  name  serial0  serial1  serial2  serial3  serial4
[root@pine64 ~]# cat /proc/device-tree/aliases/mmc1 
/soc/mmc@1c11000

If I force to use the dtb that comes with the distribution kernel, the MMC device is /dev/mmcblk0
and I don't see that alias:

[root@pine64 ~]# ls /proc/device-tree/aliases/
ethernet0  name  serial0  serial1  serial2  serial3  serial4

The dts files of the distribution kernel (5.12.6) and u-boot are identical.

I am running out of ideas where that alias comes from and why the MMC device is device 2...

Defconfigs?

Hello @apritzel

Thanks for this. Invaluable assistance.

The readme https://github.com/apritzel/pine64/blob/master/binaries/README.md mentions defconfig files for the DDR setup binaries

i.e. sun50i-h5-ddr3-spl_defconfig. Where are these located?

TAIA.

the right kernel offset is 0x01080000, not 0x01800000

sudo dd if=arch/arm64/boot/Image.boota bs=1M of=/dev/mmcblk0p7
