[PATCH 0/3] sunxi: add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Andre Przywara]

The OrangePi Zero 3 is a small development board featuring the Allwinner
H618 SoC. Compared to its predecessor OrangePi Zero 2, the new board uses
LPDDR4 DRAM instead of DDR3 DRAM, and an X-Powers AXP313 PMIC instead of
the AXP305.
U-Boot gained support for both LPDDR4 DRAM and the new PMIC just
recently, so add a user for those features by adding a defconfig for the
new board.
To make this work, patch 1/3 introduces support for zBIT SPI NOR flash
chip, and patch 2/3 removes the default AXP305 PMIC selection when
compiling for H616 SoCs.
Patch 3/3 then adds the defconfig. The DT was already synced from the
Linux kernel repo a few weeks ago.

Cheers,
Andre

[PATCH 2/3] sunxi: H616: remove default AXP305 selection

[Andre Przywara]

The original H616 devices released about three years ago were typically
paired with an X-Powers AXP305 PMIC. Newer devices uses the smaller
AXP313, and there seem to be far more systems with this PMIC around now.

Remove the default AXP305 selection for the H616 SoC from the Kconfig,
and move the PMIC selection into the board defconfig files instead.

[PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Andre Przywara]

The OrangePi Zero 3 is a small development board featuring the Allwinner
H618 SoC, shipping with up to 4GB of DRAM, Gigabit Ethernet, a micro-HDMI
connector and two USB sockets.
The board uses LPDDR4 DRAM and an X-Powers AXP313a PMIC, support for
which was recently added to U-Boot.

Add a defconfig file selecting the right drivers and DRAM options.
Since the .dts file was synced from the Linux kernel repo already, we
just need to add one line to the Makefile to actually build the .dtb.

The DRAM parameters were derived from the values found in the BSP DRAM
drivers on the SPI NOR flash.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Mikhail Kalashnikov]

Hi Andre!
Thanks for your patches. I started checking and noticed that USB storage
was not working:

=> usb reset
resetting USB...
Bus usb@5200000: USB EHCI 1.00
Bus usb@5200400: USB OHCI 1.0
scanning bus usb@5200000 for devices... 1 USB Device(s) found
scanning bus usb@5200400 for devices... 1 USB Device(s) found
       scanning usb for storage devices... 0 Storage Device(s) found
=> usb storage
No storage devices, perhaps not 'usb start'ed..?

Otherwise my OpiZero3 (4GB) board looks working.
Ethernet works with my 10 Mbps usb-dongle.

sf probe detect spi nor flash:
=> sf probe
SF: Detected zb25vq128 with page size 256 Bytes, erase size 4 KiB, total 
16 MiB

Loading the kernel and running the operating system (from microsd) also
without problems.

Ah, thanks for the report, seems I didn't even test this!
So digging around I figured it's working in Linux, and it's the right
USB port, but we are missing the VBUS power switch, which is a GPIO
controlled regulator. There are pending patches to pick this from the
devicetree[1], but we are not there yet, so we need:
CONFIG_USB1_VBUS_PIN="PC16"
in the defconfig, for now. I will update the file. The same is
actually missing from the OrangePi Zero2 defconfig, I will send a patch
ASAP.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Stephen Graf]

I built u-boot with the additional parameter for usb and it works, I think.  There was one message that might be of concern "
Card did not respond to voltage select! : -110". I am not sure of the details of the boot.cmd. The output below came from
the supplier image on an SD plugged into a USB card reader. The SD slot of the board was empty.

I was able to install u-boot to the SPI flash memory and there is a warning message from that also: "
Loading Environment from SPIFlash... jedec_spi_nor flash@0: unrecognized JEDEC id bytes: 5e, 40, 18
*** Warning - spi_flash_probe_bus_cs() failed, using default environment"

Thank you for your advice on getting something to boot. None of the Debian installer images were suitable.  Even SID was at 6.1.
I built the latest Linux 6.6.2 and wrestled with the rootfs before I got it running. I built the tested u-boot with this system,
as a test of system stability.

This is a normal, though admittedly confusing message if no SD card is
inserted. The code tries to (unconditionally) access the SD card, and
sees that no card is there, the missing respond to the voltage select
command is just the first real proof of this.

So for a start there is no environment on the SPI flash yet, so it
wouldn't do anything. But the "unrecognised JEDEC id bytes" message
doesn't sound right. Can you dig into this? Do you have patch 1/3
applied, which tells U-Boot about 0x5e meaning zBIT?

OK, so this is because you don't have the OPi Zero3 DTB on your image.
And this is frankly not needed, because U-Boot carries this very DTB
already.
In general this is some old school boot sequence, with a uImage
wrapped initrd and the DTB loaded from disk. The wrapped initrd is
mostly an small annoyance from a developers point of view, so this is
fine.
But can you tweak the boot script to use "$fdtcontroladdr", instead of
trying load a DTB from "disk"?
So remove (or ignore) the "load .... $fdt_addr_r ..." line, and change
the booti command to use "$fdtcontroladdr" instead of "$fdt_addr_r".
That should be all you need.

Good luck!

Cheers,
Andre

Re: [PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Stephen Graf]

Yes I forgot about the zBIT patch. With this patch also included I built 
and retested u-boot loaded from SPI flash.  The two warning/error 
messages disappeared and the flash worked properly and booted from a USB 
device.

There was one message that I did not understand:
"Loading Environment from SPIFlash... SF: Detected zb25vq128 with page 
size 256 Bytes, erase size 4 KiB, total 16 MiB
*** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment"

I tried to follow the u-boot documentation on writing the SPI flash but 
had problems with the write command.  When issued it returned 
immediately. The erase command took about 5 sec to execute. I researched 
use of mtd commands and got a suggestion to use cat instead, which worked.

"root@orangepizero3:~# mtdinfo

Re: [PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Stephen Graf]

Since the last test I rebuilt u-boot without the
"CONFIG_DRAM_CLK=792" in the defconfig and got the wrong DRAM size 
problem (showing 2G instead of 1G). I had to do a power down/up to see this.
Are you planning to add this parameter to your patch?

This symptom is pretty surely not directly related to the DRAM
frequency, it's caused by a missing barrier or delay *somewhere*.
People report that this is fixed by adding another "dsb();" at the
beginning of the mctl_mem_matches() function, but I don't have a good
explanation why exactly there, and would like to avoid submitting
patches that "just seem to work (TM)".

If I find some time, I will try to setup some automated environment
where I can run some experiments with different barrier locations.
I can offer some rationale for putting it at the end of the function(s)
that call mctl_mem_matches(), so hope that this fixes it.

Cheers,
Andre

Re: [PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

[Stephen Graf]

I got the initial defconfig that I started testing with from:

https://gist.github.com/iuncuim/2150b7a5317700314393665260ca628e

which has CONFIG_DRAM_CLK=792.

Just a few hours ago, when I was testing without this parameter, my 
system misbehaved and refused to reboot. The file system was corrupted 
and I had to reinstall the rootfs to get it going again.  I put the 
u-boot with the CONFIG_DRAM_CLK=792 back on it.

I will retest the system by building u-boot which is what I was doing 
when it crashed.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] sunxi: H616: Add OrangePi Zero 3 board support

it has been stable (built linux kernel and set up debian rootfs).

mdt_debug write

[Stephen Graf]

Below is the consol log from trying to use mtd_debug write. It returned 
immediately with a strange success message.

root@orangepizero3:~# mtd_debug write /dev/mtd0 0 0xf0000 
/home/sysadmin/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
file_to_flash: fread, size 0xf0000, n 0xf0000
fread(): Success

I then used the cat command to write to the SPI flash which took a few 
seconds to execute:

root@orangepizero3:~# cat /home/sysadmin/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin > 
/dev/mtd0

interesting, I was under the impression that "mtd_debug write" would be 
the way to write to flash. In hindsight, the "debug" in that name should 
have probably put me off. Anyway, "cat" is probably not a good choice, 
"dd" is better, but it looks like "flashcp" (also part of mtdutils) is 
the go-to tool, since it does the required erasing automatically and 
also reportedly does some error detection. Can you please test this?
# flashcp u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin /dev/mtd0
I would test this on my end ASAP as well.

Do you feel like sending a patch to the U-Boot documentation to get this 
changed then?

Thanks,
Andre

Re: mdt_debug write

[Stephen Graf]

Thank you for the update Andre.

The flashcp worked.  I rebooted without an SD card and the new u-boot 
started properly.

Now as to making a patch file, I will give it a try.  Keep in mind that 
when I started my working career the concept of patching was to shuffle 
a deck of IBM 80 column punched cards.

Console output:

root@orangepizero3:~# flashcp -v

Hi Stephen,

> Is the attached patch file going in the right direction?

yes, thanks, the change itself looks alright, but it needs to be:
- in a separate email, with a descriptive subject, prefixed by [PATCH]
- have the diff inline, not as an attachment (to allow easy commenting 
in an email thread)
- have a Signed-off-by: tag with your name and email address. This is to 
signify that the change is an original one made by you and you are happy 
to submit this under the (GPL) license conditions.
- an explanation *why* this change is required (mtd_debug write being 
not reliable, etc)
- sent to the U-Boot list and the maintainer (me)

Look at the U-Boot mailing list (archive) for examples.
"git format-patch" creates everything in the right format (mbox), and 
"git send-email" will send this via an SMTP server you point it to. Or 
you import this into your client.

If you could try this (with the Signed-off-by being the most important 
change), I am happy to submit this with the next push.

Thanks,
Andre

[PATCH 1/1] correct documentation for SPI flashing

[Stephen Graf]

The mtd_debug write does not work in this context. The flashcp command does work, provides
both the erase and write functions and with the verbose option gives good feedback.

- The patch should start a new thread on the list, so do not reply to
  an existing discussion or (un)related patch. This avoids the patch
  getting buried in longish threads and helps tools like patchworks to
  find and process it. Also please just send the patch, and avoid any
  quoted text from previous discussions outside of the commit message.
- Please prefix your commit message with some context tags, in this
  case "sunxi: ", so that people scanning the list can ignore it if
  it's outside their scope of interest.
- Please limit commit messages to 75 characters per line.
  $ scripts/checkpatch.pl
  0001-correct_documentation_for_SPI_flashing.patch
  will do some checks on the patch and would report this.

Anyway, those are minor things, I will just fix them while committing.

OrangePI Zero3 memory timing testing

[Stephen Graf]

Some testing results:

With the default DRAM timing of 30x24=720, most often when my system 
boots it comes up with DRAM 2G, but I have a 1G system. Once in a while 
the boot shows 1G.  When it shows 2G the linux OS also shows 2G and 
continuing does not make much sense.

On one boot where u-boot reported 1G the OS agreed and I ran memtester 
successfully.

If I build u-boot with CONFIG_DRAM_CLK=792 (33*24=792) I have never seen 
my system boot with anything other than DRAM 1G showing in u-boot. I ran 
memtester successfully and this system has been stable running linux 6.6.2.

Andre, if you can put together a few patches I can test them to see 
which works.

If anyone else with different variations of the Zero3 would test with 
the two DRAM timings and report results.

I also use the Zunlong image on occasion and it consistently shows 1G 
and from my poking around I think it runs at a 792 clk.

Interesting, many thanks for the elaborate experiments!
To be fair, the timing parameters were from Xunlong's setup, so with 792 
MHz, but I remember that in my early testing this failed more often than 
not, so I reverted back to 720MHz. But I had different parameters back 
then, I believe. I will try to arrange some boot loop, to see how it 
fares with the 792 MHz, though I believe you that it's more stable.
If that works, I will send a v2 with the USB and the DRAM clock fixed.

Thanks again for testing and the report!

Cheers,
Andre

Re: OrangePI Zero3 memory timing testing

[Siarhei Siamashka]

Hello,

Please try to insert udelay() calls in addition to dsb() in the
mctl_mem_matches()
and see if this helps. I suspect that there's just no way to do
perfectly reliable
synchronization all the way from the CPU to DRAM and back in this particular
scenario (which involves wacky things, such as accessing aliased physical
memory addresses). So just having a generous delay may do the job and
solve all the timing issues.

Another comment is about the use of memtester program. It's actually not very
sensitive to memory reliability problems as-is.

Back in A10/A20 and H3 days, it was necessary to run memtester simultaneously
with a Mali GPU rendered spinning textured cube animation for best results:
        https://github.com/ssvb/lima-memtester
For example, a misconfigured H3 DRAM was showing no problems at all in
the memtester test at 624MHz, but couldn't survive memtester together with
the spinning textured cube until downclocked to 384MHz. Only aggressive
simultaneous access from both CPU and GPU really exposes reliability
problems. The other types of DMA transfers couldn't replace the GPU. It
was also possible to use the G2D accelerator instead of the Mali GPU, but
only when performing 90 degrees rotations. Doing simple non-rotated blits
with G2D was useless and couldn't expose reliability problems.

I would suggest to install 3D drivers (whatever is available for the
modern kernels
nowadays) and run some textured spinning cube demo together with memtester
before deciding that your DRAM configuration is alright.

This is because there is no environment saved on the SPI flash (yet).
You just copied the U-Boot image, the environment is in a separate
area (behind that), defined by CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET, which is 64K below
1MB. There could be any kind of garbage there, initially, and U-Boot
fortunately protects the environment with a checksum, so detects that
this is not valid data, and falls back to the built-in environment.
And frankly this is probably all you ever need, I think these days
there is little that needs to be saved in the environment.
If you want to give it a try, type "saveenv" on the U-Boot prompt. On
the next boot U-Boot would detect this now properly initialised data
region and you will probably not see the message anymore.
But again this really only makes sense if you *change* something in the
environment and want that preserved across reboots.

Mmh, can you elaborate on that? Did you mean you piped in the data into
the mtd_debug command? Or did you write directly to /dev/mtd0, using
cat? And which version of mtd_debug was this, exactly? I guess the
official one from Debian Bookworm?

Cheers,
Andre

With that usb storage work. Also I successfully loaded u-boot image to spi

with command:

sunxi-fel -p spiflash-write 0 u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
100% [================================================]   828 kB,   74.7 
kB/s

After that u-boot successful started from spi.

Am I ok to just tag onto Mikhail's email to add my tested tag? I've got
a 4GB Orange Pi Zero 3 and can confirm that it works, despite any
limitations that may be present.
