HiFive Unleashed
================

FU540-C000 RISC-V SoC
---------------------
The FU540-C000 is the world’s first 4+1 64-bit RISC-V SoC from SiFive.

The HiFive Unleashed development platform is based on FU540-C000 and capable
of running Linux.

Mainline support
----------------

The support for following drivers are already enabled:

1. SiFive UART Driver.
2. SiFive PRCI Driver for clock.
3. Cadence MACB ethernet driver for networking support.
4. SiFive SPI Driver.
5. MMC SPI Driver for MMC/SD support.

Booting from MMC using FSBL
---------------------------

Building
~~~~~~~~

1. Add the RISC-V toolchain to your PATH.
2. Setup ARCH & cross compilation environment variable:

.. code-block:: none

   export CROSS_COMPILE=<riscv64 toolchain prefix>

3. make sifive_fu540_defconfig
4. make

Flashing
~~~~~~~~

The current U-Boot port is supported in S-mode only and loaded from DRAM.

A prior stage M-mode firmware/bootloader (e.g OpenSBI) is required to
boot the u-boot.bin in S-mode and provide M-mode runtime services.

Currently, the u-boot.bin is used as a payload of the OpenSBI FW_PAYLOAD
firmware. We need to compile OpenSBI with below command:

.. code-block:: none

	make PLATFORM=generic FW_PAYLOAD_PATH=<path to u-boot-dtb.bin>

More detailed description of steps required to build FW_PAYLOAD firmware
is beyond the scope of this document. Please refer OpenSBI documenation.
(Note: OpenSBI git repo is at https://github.com/riscv/opensbi.git)

Once the prior stage firmware/bootloader binary is generated, it should be
copied to the first partition of the sdcard.

.. code-block:: none

    sudo dd if=<prior_stage_firmware_binary> of=/dev/disk2s1 bs=1024

Booting
~~~~~~~

Once you plugin the sdcard and power up, you should see the U-Boot prompt.

Now you can configure your networking, tftp server and use tftp boot method to
load uImage.

Booting from MMC using U-Boot SPL
---------------------------------

Building
~~~~~~~~

Before building U-Boot SPL, OpenSBI must be built first. OpenSBI can be
cloned and built for FU540 as below:

.. code-block:: console

	git clone https://github.com/riscv/opensbi.git
	cd opensbi
	make PLATFORM=generic
	export OPENSBI=<path to opensbi/build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin>

Now build the U-Boot SPL and U-Boot proper

.. code-block:: console

	cd <U-Boot-dir>
	make sifive_fu540_defconfig
	make

This will generate spl/u-boot-spl.bin and FIT image (u-boot.itb)


Flashing
~~~~~~~~

ZSBL loads the U-Boot SPL (u-boot-spl.bin) from a partition with GUID type
5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47

U-Boot SPL expects a U-Boot FIT image (u-boot.itb) from a partition with GUID
type 2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985

FIT image (u-boot.itb) is a combination of fw_dynamic.bin, u-boot-nodtb.bin and
device tree blob (hifive-unleashed-a00.dtb)

Format the SD card (make sure the disk has GPT, otherwise use gdisk to switch)

.. code-block:: bash

	sudo sgdisk --clear \
	  --set-alignment=2 \
	  --new=1:34:2081 --change-name=1:loader1 --typecode=1:5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47 \
	  --new=2:2082:10273 --change-name=2:loader2 --typecode=2:2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985 \
	  --new=3:10274: --change-name=3:rootfs --typecode=3:0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4 \
	  /dev/sdX

Program the SD card

.. code-block:: bash

	sudo dd if=spl/u-boot-spl.bin of=/dev/sdX seek=34
	sudo dd if=u-boot.itb of=/dev/sdX seek=2082

Booting
~~~~~~~

Once you plugin the sdcard and power up, you should see the U-Boot prompt.

Booting from SPI
----------------

Use Building steps from "Booting from MMC using U-Boot SPL" section.

Partition the SPI in Linux via mtdblock. (Require to boot the board in
SD boot mode by enabling MTD block in Linux)

Use prebuilt image from here [1], which support to partition the SPI flash.

.. code-block:: none

  # sgdisk --clear \
  > --set-alignment=2 \
  > --new=1:40:2087 --change-name=1:loader1 --typecode=1:5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47 \
  > --new=2:2088:10279 --change-name=2:loader2 --typecode=2:2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985 \
  > --new=3:10536:65494 --change-name=3:rootfs --typecode=3:0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4 \
  > /dev/mtdblock0

Program the SPI (Require to boot the board in SD boot mode)

Execute below steps on U-Boot proper,

.. code-block:: none

  tftpboot $kernel_addr_r u-boot-spl.bin
  sf erase 0x5000 $filesize
  sf write $kernel_addr_r 0x5000 $filesize

  tftpboot $kernel_addr_r u-boot.itb
  sf erase 0x105000 $filesize
  sf write $kernel_addr_r 0x105000 $filesize

Power off the board

Change DIP switches MSEL[3:0] are set to 0110

Power up the board.
