U-Boot support +for this board is heavily based on the existing U-Boot support for +Freescale MPC8349 reference boards. + +Support has been primarily tested on the SBC8349 version of the board, +although earlier versions were also tested on the SBC8347. The primary +difference in the two is the level of PCI functionality. + + http://www.windriver.com/products/OCD/SBC8347E_49E/ + + +Flash Details: +============== + +The flash type is intel 28F640Jx (4096x16) [one device]. Base address +is 0xFF80_0000 which is also where the Hardware Reset Configuration +Word (HRCW) is stored. Caution should be used to not reset the +board without having a valid HRCW in place (i.e. erased flash) as +then a Wind River ICE will be required to restore the HRCW and flash +image. + + +Restoring a corrupted or missing flash image: +============================================= + +Note that U-boot versions up to and including 2009.06 had essentially +two copies of u-boot in flash; one at the very beginning, which set +the HRCW, and one at the very end, which was the image that was run. +As of this point in time, the two have been combined into just one +at the beginning of flash, which provides both the HRCW, and the image +that is executed. This frees up the remainder of flash for other uses. +Use of the u-boot command "fli" will indicate what parts are in use. +Details for storing U-boot to flash using a Wind River ICE can be found +on page 19 of the board manual (request ERG-00328-001). The following +is a summary of that information: + + - Connect ICE and establish connection to it from WorkBench/OCD. + - Ensure you have background mode (BKM) in the OCD terminal window. + - Select the appropriate flash type (listed above) + - Prepare a u-boot image by using the Wind River Convert utility; + by using "Convert and Add file" on the ELF file from your build. + Convert from FF80_0000 to FFFF_FFFF (or to FF83_FFFF if you are + trying to preserve your old environment settings and user flash). + - Set the start address of the erase/flash process to FF80_0000 + - Set the target RAM required to 64kB. + - Select sectors for erasing (see note on enviroment below) + - Select Erase and Reprogram. + +Note that some versions of the register files used with Workbench +would zero some TSEC registers, which inhibits ethernet operation +by u-boot when this register file is played to the target. Using +"INN" in the OCD terminal window instead of "IN" before the "GO" +will not play the register file, and allow u-boot to use the TSEC +interface while executed from the ICE "GO" command. + +Alternatively, you can locate the register file which will be named +WRS_SBC8349_PCT00328001.reg or similar) and "REM" out all the lines +beginning with "SCGA TSEC1" and "SCGA TSEC2". This allows you to +use all the remaining register file content. + +If you wish to preserve your prior U-Boot environment settings, +then convert (and erase to) 0xFF83FFFF instead of 0xFFFFFFFF. +The size for converting (and erasing) must be at least as large +as u-boot.bin. + + +Updating U-Boot with U-Boot: +============================ + +This procedure is very similar to other boards that have u-boot installed. +Assuming that the network has been configured, and that the new u-boot.bin +has been copied to the TFTP server, the commands are: + + tftp 200000 u-boot.bin + protect off all + erase ff800000 ff83ffff + cp.b 200000 ff800000 40000 + protect on all + +You may wish to do a "md ff800000 20" operation as a prefix and postfix +to the above steps to inspect/compare the HRCW before/after as an extra +safety check before resetting the board upon completion of the reflash. + +PCI: +==== + +There are three configuration choices: + sbc8349_config + sbc8349_PCI_33_config + sbc8349_PCI_66_config + +The 1st does not enable CONFIG_PCI, and assumes that the PCI slot +will be left empty (M66EN high), and so the board will operate with +a base clock of 66MHz. Note that you need both PCI enabled in u-boot +and linux in order to have functional PCI under linux. The only +reason for choosing to not enable PCI would be if you had a very +early (rev 1.0) CPU with possible PCI issues. + +The second enables PCI support and builds for a 33MHz clock rate. Note +that if a 33MHz 32bit card is inserted in the slot, then the whole board +will clock down to a 33MHz base clock instead of the default 66MHz. This +will change the baud clocks and mess up your serial console output if you +were previously running at 66MHz. If you want to use a 33MHz PCI card, +then you should build a U-Boot with sbc8349_PCI_33_config and store this +to flash prior to powering down the board and inserting the 33MHz PCI +card. + +The third option builds PCI support in, and leaves the clocking at the +default 66MHz. This has been tested with an intel PCI-X e1000 card. +This is also the appropriate choice for people with a recent (non 1.0) +CPU who currently have the PCI slot physically empty, but intend to +possibly add a PCI-X card at a later date. + + => pci + Scanning PCI devices on bus 0 + BusDevFun VendorId DeviceId Device Class Sub-Class + _____________________________________________________________ + 00.00.00 0x1957 0x0080 Processor 0x20 + 00.11.00 0x8086 0x1026 Network controller 0x00 + => -- cgit v1.2.3
