[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/4] i.MX6 and Nitrogen6x updates

[Eric Nelson]

BTW, I'd like to thank each of you for getting this support
into Buildroot to begin with.

It's been a while since I last touched Buildroot and was
pleasantly surprised at all of the activity.

Regards,


Eric

This patch series updates U-Boot and the Linux kernel for the
Boundary Devices Nitrogen6x board to the latest production-ready
releases and also updates Freescale-provided packages to the
matching versions to maintain ABI compatibility.

Eric Nelson (4):
  nitrogen6x: bump U-Boot to latest production version (2013.07)
  nitrogen6x: use 6x_bootscript/6x_upgrade instead of older 6q_ versions
  nitrogen6x: bump kernel to latest version (3.0.35-4.1.0)
  i.MX6: Update Freescale hardware-acceleration bits to latest versions

[Buildroot] [PATCH 4/4] i.MX6: Update Freescale hardware-acceleration bits to latest versions

[Eric Nelson]

This patchset updates the Freescale gstreamer and GPU libraries
to the latest release (3.0.35_4.1.0).

Note that the package names refer to and are compatible with
an alpha release of kernel version 3.5.7.

The primary release package (based on LTIB) is available
here and includes documentation.
	https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-95560

The 3.5.7 kernel sources are available here:
	http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/log/?h=imx_3.5.7_1.0.0_alpha

Hmm, how is that supposed to work? I don't know the details of the imx6
boot sequence, but:

- We don't currently have an option in the u-boot package to install
  u-boot.imx to IMAGES_DIR/, so this will never run

- Comparing 6q_upgrade and 6x_upgrade I see we used to write the raw
  u-boot.bin to offset 0 in the spi flash, and now are writing
  u-boot.imx (which presumably is u-boot.bin with a freescale header) to
  offset 1K. I see that the .imx file is 4K bigger than the .bin
  file, so that's presumably the size of the freescale header.

I'll go and add a option for u-boot.imx to the u-boot package, but would
like to hear if 6x_upgrade is doing the right thing here.

The switch from "u-boot.bin" to "u-boot.imx" occurred when we
switched from using a Freescale-derived U-Boot 2009.08 to
main-line U-Boot sources (currently 2013.07).

Details in this post:
	http://boundarydevices.com/switching-u-boot-versions-on-i-mx6/

> I'll go and add a option for u-boot.imx to the u-boot package, but would

A short description of the change is that Freescale's build process
generated u-boot.bin with 512 bytes of padding at the beginning,
while main-line U-Boot generates u-boot.imx without the padding.

There are also a handful of discrepancies in the syntax for
various commands between the two versions, especially in the
areas of SPI NOR (sf probe command), which prompted us to switch
the name of the upgrade script (6q_upgrade == old/6x_upgrade == new)
when switching to main-line based code.

Note that unlike many ARM-based boards out there, our devices boot
to SPI-NOR, so building U-Boot is a convenience. It's not needed
to build an SD card image and the choice of when to upgrade should
largely be based on the need for features or bug fixes and not
tied to each userspace build.

The 6x_bootscript is required though, and provides the distribution-
specifics of how/where to load kernel, DTS file, ram disk, et cetera.

Regards,


Eric

Ahh, I guess the confusion comes from the fact that I missed the change
to u-boot.imx when I updated the u-boot version back in April:

I guess you mean 1K of padding to match the new script?

Yes, I know. My nitrogen6x board still runs the original 2009.08
bootloader it was shipped with (which has problems using ext2 rev0
filesystems among others), so I should probably upgrade ;)

Thanks for the info.

Why the pwd?

We do have generic autoreconf support in Buildroot. Normally you can
just set:

 LIBFSLPARSERS_AUTORECONF = YES

And Buildroot will take care of building the proper auto* packages for
the host and running autoreconf.

I'll try to post updates to the ML with each quarterly release.

The next upgrade will be 2013-10, that I hope enables USB OTG support.

Upgrading is definitely recommended.

The other notable enhancements are display support and support for SATA.

There's no page at http://www.freescale.com/lgfiles/NMG/MAD/YOCTO/.

This is simply the repository used to feed packages to the Yocto
project, with a mirror at O.S. Systems:

I actually meant to, but hadn't yet started a discussion on the topic.

We should be able to get rid of these comments:
	http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/tree/package/freescale-imx/gpu-viv-bin-mx6q/gpu-viv-bin-mx6q.mk#n15

By following the lead of the meta-fsl-arm project and allowing the first
of any packages with the Freescale EULA to prompt the user for
acceptance, but I'm not sure how to accomplish that.

In the Yocto world, a tag ("ACCEPT_FREESCALE_EULA") placed in local.conf
is sufficient to bypass the prompt, which requires action by the user.

Yep. The tar-balls are gone. This one (imx-lib) is a bit misleading,
since the extracted files say very clearly that all of the components
are released under LGPL.

I think somebody in the packaging department was in the "EULA zone"...

Yes, but version "1.0.0" of the "3.5.7" package and to make things
even more confusing, this is the binary that matches up with kernel
version 3.0.35_4.1.0....

Have you noticed how the Freescale packages often name things
"MXC-something"... I think the "MXC" stands for "Mobile eXtreme 
Confusion"...

Agreed. I'm also confused about why this isn't in the freescale-imx/

  We prefer to avoid that the build stops after half an hour or so 
because it is waiting for user input. Also, I don't see a reason why we 
have to explicitly ask the user to accept this license. If we do that, we 
should probably do the same for all the other packages.

  If we do want explicit acceptance, then it can be done similar to the 
Qt license, i.e. add a config option that enables the --auto-accept.

  In that case, the license is still LGPL. The EULA text specifies:

This Agreement does not concern your use of any files that
are subject to an "open source" software license, such as the Free
Software Foundation "General Public License," or "GNU GPL."

  Since only GPL stuff is included in imx-lib, the rest of the EULA 
essentially doesn't apply.

  Because the libfslcodec fits in the multimedia libraries menu more than 
in the hardware handling menu.

  Note that it is not necessary to put the libfslcodec package under the 
freescale-imx directory for it to use the FREESCALE_IMX_SITE variable. At 
least, I think so :-)

I'll take a whack at that, but it may take a week or so.

Right.

I'm not sure. It shows up under Packages/Libraries/Multimedia and I
found the packages difficult to locate.

That variable (currently FREESCALE_IMX_MIRROR_SITE) is defined
in the parent makefile:
	http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/tree/package/freescale-imx/freescale-imx.mk

... so it's not appropriate to include from the other tree.

Can you take a look at the more recent patch set? Things seem
much cleaner by having this all in the same tree.

Thanks,

Agreed.

I don't quite agree here. The location of the package in the menu has
nothing to do with the location of the package .mk file and directory.
So if the libfslcodec is downloaded from the same site and with the
same version as the other package/freescale-imx/ stuff and therefore
re-use the same variables, it could very well be moved under this
directory.

Best regards,

Thomas
