[U-Boot] U-Boot SPL 2016.09-rc1 on NTC C.H.I.P.

[Marcus Glocker]

Hello,

While U-Boot SPL 2015.10 works fine on my allwinner,sun5i-r8 board I
face following issue with U-Boot SPL 2016.09-rc1 on it:

	bash-4.3# cu -l /dev/cuaU0 -s 115200
	Connected to /dev/cuaU0 (speed 115200)

	U-Boot SPL 2016.09-rc1 (Jul 31 2016 - 16:37:00)
	DRAM: 512 MiB
	CPU: 1008000000Hz, AXI/AHB/APB: 3/2/2
	Trying to boot from NAND
	### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###

Any ideas what change did cause this or where to start looking after?

Thanks,
Marcus

I do not have any idea. What I can only recommend - please use last
working release (2015.10) and perform git bisect.

You're not talking about mainline when you say v2015.10, are you?  IIRC
the current state of CHIP support in mainline is that we don't have NAND
support so it's not useful just yet.

You sure?  When I read to commit history correctly SPL NAND support for
sunxi has been introduced 2015-08:

	2015-08-08 	Piotr Zierhoffer
	    sunxi: nand: Add basic sunxi NAND driver for SPL with... 

I'm booting the C.H.I.P. with mainline SPL 2015.10 and let it load
U-Boot 2016.09-rc1:

	U-Boot SPL 2015.10 (Dec 22 2015 - 20:46:00)
	DRAM: 512 MiB
	CPU: 1008000000Hz, AXI/AHB/APB: 3/2/2


	U-Boot 2016.09-rc1 (Jul 31 2016 - 16:37:00 +0200) Allwinner Technology

	CPU:   Allwinner A13 (SUN5I)
	Model: NextThing C.H.I.P.
	I2C:   ready
	DRAM:  512 MiB
	NAND:  8192 MiB
	Using default environment

My question still is if somebody knows why SPL 2016.09-rc1 fails?  Maybe
I should revert the changes step by step and see which one broke it.

Yes, for one mainline u-boot configs/CHIP_defconfig does not
select SPL nand support...

We have some code in mainline u-boot but the nand code is not complete
so it never got enabled. Boris Brezillon is working on this and he
is making good progress.

Boris what is the status on this ?

Markus, can you share your .config?
I tested the different bits while submitting the NAND driver and the
SPL NAND driver improvements and it was working fine.
I'll try to test 2016.09-rc1 tomorrow.

That's not the case anymore (the sunxi_nand driver has been merged
recently and is part of 2016.09-rc1). Or at least, you should now be
able to boot uboot from NAND (SPL
+ uboot loaded from NAND).
For the rest (loading a kernel from NAND within u-boot), it's another
story. It should work, but as you might already know, MLC NANDs are
unreliable. We're working on UBI to make those NANDs usable in a
reliable way, but those bits haven't been mainlined in Linux yet
(actually it's not even ready for submission). This is why I want to
keep NAND support disabled on all setup embedding an MLC NAND. AFAIK,
there's not sunxi board with MLC NANDs, so this means disabling NAND on
all sunxi configs.

> >

The SPL driver was present in 2015.10, but I still doubt you were using
a mainline version of u-boot. It's probably flashed with [1].

That's what I was talking about. Not sure I want to enable booting from
NAND by default until the whole chain (SPL -> UBOOT -> Linux) is really
reliable.

Well, the NAND part is ready (the sunxi_nand driver is there and has
been tested, and the SPL driver has been recently improved to
auto-detect the ECC config). The real problem is MLC support in general,
and this is not only impacting sunxi platforms, but all platforms
booting from and MLC NAND.
We're working on this aspect with Richard, and will hopefully have
something to share/submit by the end of the year.

Boris

Just tried to boot a mainline uboot on my CHIP and it boots fine [1].
Here is my .config [2], can you compare yours with this one?

Can you also detail how you flash the images?

Thanks,

Hi all,

so, the difference between the 2 .config as it follows[1] and the .config
as is[2].

And the procedures:

# dd if=u-boot-dtb.bin of=/root/u-boot-dtb.bin bs=2M conv=sync
# sunxi-nand-image-builder -p 8192 -o 640 -e 0x200000 -s -b -u 4096 -c
64/1024 spl/sunxi-spl.bin /root/sunxi-spl.bin (BUILDING IMAGE FOR HYNIX

U-Boot SPL 2016.09-rc1-14223-gfcada3b-dirty (Aug 22 2016 - 23:45:03)
DRAM: 1024 MiB
CPU: 912000000Hz, AXI/AHB/APB: 3/2/2
Trying to boot from NAND
### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###


I also added these lines to include/configs/sunxi_common.h[3]

With the u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin on a SD Card, NAND gets detected fine
and I can even boot from it.

If I add some traces in the middle of the code telling me the possible ECC
configs the SPL will try, it will print only one and then gets the error.
The stranger thing is that it will go no further in device detection to
boot, no MMC, SATA or LAN.

It produces spl/drivers/mtd/nand/sunxi_nand_spl.o, which I can see in
compilation process, later on that directory.

Hope this can help out!

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for sharing your configuration!  Based on that I was able to
narrow down the configuration parameter which makes SPL 2016.09-rc1 now
work on my allwinner,sun5i-r8 board as well:

	+CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=n

When I don't set it explicitly I get 'CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=y' in
my .config.  Could it be that it was set to 'n' by default in previous
releases?

Thanks,
Marcus

Yep. This is enabled by default on ARM platforms since 2016.07 (see
commit 91b86e21564d ("lib: Enable private libgcc by default")).
Now, this does not explain why the SPL code does not work correctly
with the internal libgcc implem.

Can you reproduce the issue when compiling on your side using the
internal libgcc?  Since here I'm using gcc-linaro to cross-compile it.
