1 | Board: Nokia RX-51 aka N900 |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | This board definition results in a u-boot.bin which can be chainloaded | |
| 4 | from NOLO in qemu or on a real N900. It does very little hardware config | |
| 5 | because NOLO has already configured the board. Only needed is enabling | |
| 6 | internal eMMC memory via twl4030 regulator which is not enabled by NOLO. | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | NOLO is expecting a kernel image and will treat any image it finds in | |
| 9 | onenand as such. This u-boot is intended to be flashed to the N900 like | |
| 10 | a kernel. In order to transparently boot the original kernel, it will be | |
| 11 | appended to u-boot.bin at 0x40000. NOLO will load the entire image into | |
| 12 | (random) memory and execute u-boot, which saves hw revision, boot reason | |
| 13 | and boot mode ATAGs set by NOLO. Then the bootscripts will attempt to load | |
| 14 | uImage or boot.scr from a fat, ext2/ext3 or ext4 filesystem in external | |
| 15 | SD card or internal eMMC memory. If this fails or keyboard is closed then | |
| 16 | the appended kernel image will be booted using some generated and some | |
| 17 | stored ATAGs (see boot order). | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | There is support for hardware watchdog. Hardware watchdog is started by | |
| 20 | NOLO so u-boot must kick watchdog to prevent reboot device (but not very | |
| 21 | often, max every 2 seconds). There is also support for framebuffer display | |
| 22 | output with ANSI espace codes and the N900 HW keyboard input. USB tty works | |
| 23 | but is disabled because it prevents the current Maemo kernel from booting. | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | When U-Boot is starting it enable IBE bit in Auxiliary Control Register, | |
| 26 | which is needed for Thumb-2 ISA support. It is workaround for errata 430973. | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | Default boot order: | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | * 0. if keyboard is closed boot automatically attached kernel image | |
| 31 | * 1. try boot from external SD card | |
| 32 | * 2. try boot from internal eMMC memory | |
| 33 | * 3. try boot from attached kernel image | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | Boot from SD or eMMC in this order: | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | * 1. | |
| 38 | * 1.1 find boot.scr on first fat partition | |
| 39 | * 1.2 find uImage on first fat parition | |
| 40 | * 1.3 same order for 2. - 4. fat partition | |
| 41 | * 2. same as 1. but for ext2/3 partition | |
| 42 | * 3. same as 1. but for ext4 partition | |
| 43 | ||
| 44 | ||
| 45 | Available additional commands/variables: | |
| 46 | ||
| 47 | * run sercon - Use serial port for control | |
| 48 | * run usbcon - Use usbtty for control | |
| 49 | * run vgacon - Use framebuffer and HW keyboard for control (default) | |
| 50 | ||
| 51 | * run sdboot - Boot from external SD card (see boot order) | |
| 52 | * run emmcboot - Boot from internal eMMC memory (see boot order) | |
| 53 | * run attachboot - Boot attached kernel image (attached to U-Boot binary) | |
| 54 | ||
| 55 | * run scriptload - Load boot script ${mmcscriptfile} | |
| 56 | * run scriptboot - Run loaded boot script | |
| 57 | * run kernload - Load kernel image ${mmckernfile} | |
| 58 | * run initrdload - Load initrd image ${mmcinitrdfile} | |
| 59 | * run kernboot - Boot loaded kernel image | |
| 60 | * run kerninitrdboot - Boot loaded kernel image with loaded initrd image | |
| 61 | ||
| 62 | * run trymmcscriptboot - Try to load and boot script ${mmcscriptfile} | |
| 63 | * run trymmckernboot - Try to load and boot kernel image ${mmckernfile} | |
| 64 | * run trymmckerninitrdboot - Try to load and boot kernel image ${mmckernfile} | |
| 93e14596 | 65 | with initrd image ${mmcinitrdfile} |

| 67 | Additional variables for loading files from mmc: | |
| 68 | ||
| 69 | * mmc ${mmcnum} (0 - external, 1 - internal) | |
| 70 | * partition number ${mmcpart} (1 - 4) | |
| 71 | * parition type ${mmctype} (fat, ext2) | |
| 72 | ||
| 73 | Additional varuables for booting kernel: | |
| 74 | ||
| 75 | * setup_omap_atag - Add OMAP table into atags structure (needs maemo kernel) | |
| 76 | * setup_console_atag - Enable serial console in OMAP table | |
| 77 | * setup_boot_reason_atag - Change boot reason in OMAP table | |
| 78 | * setup_boot_mode_atag - Change boot mode in OMAP table | |

| 80 | USB TTY: | |
| 81 | ||
| 82 | Maemo kernel 2.6.28 will crash if u-boot enable usb tty. So USB TTY is disabled. | |
| 83 | For enabling USB TTY just add this line to file include/configs/nokia_rx51.h | |
| 84 | ||
| 85 | #define CONFIG_USB_TTY | |
| 86 | ||
| 87 | ||
| 88 | ONENAND support: | |
| 89 | ||
| 90 | ONENAND support is disabled because not working yet and cause linux kernel to | |
| 91 | crash or no access to mtd. For enabling ONENAND support add this line at begin | |
| 92 | of file include/configs/nokia_rx51.h | |
| 93 | ||
| 94 | #define ONENAND_SUPPORT | |
| 95 | ||
| 96 | ||
| 97 | UBIFS support: | |
| 98 | ||
| 99 | UBIFS support is disabled, because U-Boot image is too big and cannot be | |
| 100 | flashed with attached zImage to RX-51 kernel nand area. For enabling UBIFS | |
| 101 | support first enable ONENAND support and then add this line at begin of file | |
| 102 | include/configs/nokia_rx51.h | |
| 103 | ||
| 104 | #define UBIFS_SUPPORT |
