| Overview |
| ========= |
| The P2041 Processor combines four Power Architecture processor cores |
| with high-performance datapath acceleration architecture(DPAA), CoreNet |
| fabric infrastructure, as well as network and peripheral bus interfaces |
| required for networking, telecom/datacom, wireless infrastructure, and |
| military/aerospace applications. |
| |
| P2041RDB board is a quad core platform supporting the P2041 processor |
| of QorIQ DPAA series. |
| |
| Boot from NOR flash |
| =================== |
| 1. Build image |
| make P2041RDB_config |
| make all |
| |
| 2. Program image |
| => tftp 1000000 u-boot.bin |
| => protect off all |
| => erase eff40000 efffffff |
| => cp.b 1000000 eff40000 c0000 |
| |
| 3. Program RCW |
| => tftp 1000000 rcw.bin |
| => protect off all |
| => erase e8000000 e801ffff |
| => cp.b 1000000 e8000000 50 |
| |
| 4. Program FMAN Firmware ucode |
| => tftp 1000000 ucode.bin |
| => protect off all |
| => erase eff00000 eff3ffff |
| => cp.b 1000000 eff00000 2000 |
| |
| 5. Change DIP-switch |
| SW1[1-5] = 10110 |
| Note: 1 stands for 'on', 0 stands for 'off' |
| |
| Boot from SDCard |
| =================== |
| 1. Build image |
| make P2041RDB_SDCARD_config |
| make all |
| |
| 2. Generate PBL imge |
| Use PE tool to produce a image used to be programed to |
| SDCard which contains RCW and U-Boot image. |
| |
| 3. Program the PBL image to SDCard |
| => tftp 1000000 pbl_sd.bin |
| => mmcinfo |
| => mmc write 1000000 8 672 |
| |
| 4. Program FMAN Firmware ucode |
| => tftp 1000000 ucode.bin |
| => mmc write 1000000 690 10 |
| |
| 5. Change DIP-switch |
| SW1[1-5] = 01100 |
| Note: 1 stands for 'on', 0 stands for 'off' |
| |
| Boot from SPI flash |
| =================== |
| 1. Build image |
| make P2041RDB_SPIFLASH_config |
| make all |
| |
| 2. Generate PBL imge |
| Use PE tool to produce a image used to be programed to |
| SPI flash which contains RCW and U-Boot image. |
| |
| 3. Program the PBL image to SPI flash |
| => tftp 1000000 pbl_spi.bin |
| => spi probe 0 |
| => sf erase 0 100000 |
| => sf write 1000000 0 $filesize |
| |
| 4. Program FMAN Firmware ucode |
| => tftp 1000000 ucode.bin |
| => sf erase 110000 10000 |
| => sf write 1000000 110000 $filesize |
| |
| 5. Change DIP-switch |
| SW1[1-5] = 10100 |
| Note: 1 stands for 'on', 0 stands for 'off' |
| |
| Device tree support and how to enable it for different configs |
| -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Device tree support is available for p2041rdb for below mentioned boot, |
| 1. NOR Boot |
| 2. NAND Boot |
| 3. SD Boot |
| 4. SPIFLASH Boot |
| |
| To enable device tree support for other boot, below configs need to be |
| enabled in relative defconfig file, |
| 1. CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE="p2041rdb" (Change default device tree name if required) |
| 2. CONFIG_OF_CONTROL |
| 3. CONFIG_MPC85XX_HAVE_RESET_VECTOR if reset vector is located at |
| CONFIG_RESET_VECTOR_ADDRESS - 0xffc |
| |
| CPLD command |
| ============ |
| The CPLD is used to control the power sequence and some serdes lane |
| mux function. |
| |
| cpld reset - hard reset to default bank |
| cpld reset altbank - reset to alternate bank |
| cpld lane_mux <lane> <mux_value> - set multiplexed lane pin |
| lane 6: 0 -> slot1 (Default) |
| 1 -> SGMII |
| lane a: 0 -> slot2 (Default) |
| 1 -> AURORA |
| lane c: 0 -> slot2 (Default) |
| 1 -> SATA0 |
| lane d: 0 -> slot2 (Default) |
| 1 -> SATA1 |
| |
| Using the Device Tree Source File |
| ================================= |
| To create the DTB (Device Tree Binary) image file, use a command |
| similar to this: |
| dtc -O dtb -b 0 -p 1024 p2041rdb.dts > p2041rdb.dtb |
| |
| Or use the following command: |
| {linux-2.6}/make p2041rdb.dtb ARCH=powerpc |
| |
| then the dtb file will be generated under the following directory: |
| {linux-2.6}/arch/powerpc/boot/p2041rdb.dtb |
| |
| Booting Linux |
| ============= |
| Place a linux uImage in the TFTP disk area. |
| tftp 1000000 uImage |
| tftp 2000000 rootfs.ext2.gz.uboot |
| tftp 3000000 p2041rdb.dtb |
| bootm 1000000 2000000 3000000 |
