7 Freescale LayerScape with Chassis Generation 3
9 This architecture supports Freescale ARMv8 SoCs with Chassis generation 3,
14 Entire DDR region splits into two regions.
15 - Region 1 is at address 0x8000_0000 to 0xffff_ffff.
16 - Region 2 is at 0x80_8000_0000 to the top of total memory,
17 for example 16GB, 0x83_ffff_ffff.
19 All DDR memory is marked as cache-enabled.
21 When MC and Debug server is enabled, they carve 512MB away from the high
22 end of DDR. For example, if the total DDR is 16GB, it shrinks to 15.5GB
23 with MC and Debug server enabled. Linux only sees 15.5GB.
25 The reserved 512MB layout looks like
27 +---------------+ <-- top/end of memory
28 | 256MB | debug server
34 MC requires the memory to be aligned with 512MB, so even debug server is
35 not enabled, 512MB is reserved, not 256MB.

114 128-MB NOR flash layout for QDS and RDB boards
116 Environment Variables
117 =====================
118 mcboottimeout: MC boot timeout in milliseconds. If this variable is not defined
119 the value CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_BOOT_TIMEOUT_MS will be assumed.
121 mcmemsize: MC DRAM block size. If this variable is not defined, the value
122 CONFIG_SYS_LS_MC_DRAM_BLOCK_MIN_SIZE will be assumed.
124 mcinitcmd: This environment variable is defined to initiate MC and DPL deployment
125 from the location where it is stored(NOR, NAND, SD, SATA, USB)during
126 u-boot booting.If this variable is not defined then MC_BOOT_ENV_VAR
127 will be null and MC will not be booted and DPL will not be applied
128 during U-boot booting.However the MC, DPC and DPL can be applied from
129 console independently.
130 The variable needs to be set from the console once and then on
131 rebooting the parameters set in the varible will automatically be
132 executed. The commmand is demostrated taking an example of mc boot
133 using NOR Flash i.e. MC, DPL, and DPC is stored in the NOR flash:
135 cp.b 0xa0000000 0x580300000 $filesize
136 cp.b 0x80000000 0x580800000 $filesize
137 cp.b 0x90000000 0x580700000 $filesize
139 setenv mcinitcmd 'fsl_mc start mc 0x580300000 0x580800000'
141 If only linux is to be booted then the mcinitcmd environment should be set as
143 setenv mcinitcmd 'fsl_mc start mc 0x580300000 0x580800000;fsl_mc apply DPL 0x580700000'
145 Here the addresses 0xa0000000, 0x80000000, 0x80000000 are of DDR to where
146 MC binary, DPC binary and DPL binary are stored and 0x580300000, 0x580800000
147 and 0x580700000 are addresses in NOR where these are copied. It is to be
148 noted that these addresses in 'fsl_mc start mc 0x580300000 0x580800000;fsl_mc apply DPL 0x580700000'
149 can be replaced with the addresses of DDR to
150 which these will be copied in case of these binaries being stored in other
151 devices like SATA, USB, NAND, SD etc.
155 Booting from NAND requires two images, RCW and u-boot-with-spl.bin.
156 The difference between NAND boot RCW image and NOR boot image is the PBI
157 command sequence. Below is one example for PBI commands for QDS which uses
158 NAND device with 2KB/page, block size 128KB.
160 1) CCSR 4-byte write to 0x00e00404, data=0x00000000
161 2) CCSR 4-byte write to 0x00e00400, data=0x1800a000
162 The above two commands set bootloc register to 0x00000000_1800a000 where
163 the u-boot code will be running in OCRAM.
165 3) Block Copy: SRC=0x0107, SRC_ADDR=0x00020000, DEST_ADDR=0x1800a000,
166 BLOCK_SIZE=0x00014000
167 This command copies u-boot image from NAND device into OCRAM. The values need
168 to adjust accordingly.
170 SRC should match the cfg_rcw_src, the reset config pins. It depends
171 on the NAND device. See reference manual for cfg_rcw_src.
172 SRC_ADDR is the offset of u-boot-with-spl.bin image in NAND device. In
173 the example above, 128KB. For easy maintenance, we put it at
174 the beginning of next block from RCW.
175 DEST_ADDR is fixed at 0x1800a000, matching bootloc set above.
176 BLOCK_SIZE is the size to be copied by PBI.
178 RCW image should be written to the beginning of NAND device. Example of using
181 nand write <rcw image in memory> 0 <size of rcw image>
183 To form the NAND image, build u-boot with NAND config, for example,
184 ls2080aqds_nand_defconfig. The image needed is u-boot-with-spl.bin.
185 The u-boot image should be written to match SRC_ADDR, in above example 0x20000.
187 nand write <u-boot image in memory> 200000 <size of u-boot image>
189 With these two images in NAND device, the board can boot from NAND.
191 Another example for RDB boards,
193 1) CCSR 4-byte write to 0x00e00404, data=0x00000000
194 2) CCSR 4-byte write to 0x00e00400, data=0x1800a000
195 3) Block Copy: SRC=0x0119, SRC_ADDR=0x00080000, DEST_ADDR=0x1800a000,
196 BLOCK_SIZE=0x00014000
198 nand write <rcw image in memory> 0 <size of rcw image>
199 nand write <u-boot image in memory> 80000 <size of u-boot image>
201 Notice the difference from QDS is SRC, SRC_ADDR and the offset of u-boot image
202 to match board NAND device with 4KB/page, block size 512KB.

276 DPAA2 commands to manage Management Complex (MC)
277 ------------------------------------------------
278 DPAA2 commands has been introduced to manage Management Complex
279 (MC). These commands are used to start mc, aiop and apply DPL
280 from u-boot command prompt.
282 Please note Management complex Firmware(MC), DPL and DPC are no
283 more deployed during u-boot boot-sequence.
286 a) fsl_mc start mc <FW_addr> <DPC_addr> - Start Management Complex
287 b) fsl_mc apply DPL <DPL_addr> - Apply DPL file
288 c) fsl_mc start aiop <FW_addr> - Start AIOP
290 How to use commands :-
291 1. Command sequence for u-boot ethernet:
292 a) fsl_mc start mc <FW_addr> <DPC_addr> - Start Management Complex
293 b) DPMAC net-devices are now available for use
296 Assumption: MC firmware, DPL and DPC dtb is already programmed
299 => fsl_mc start mc 580300000 580800000
300 => setenv ethact DPMAC1@xgmii
303 2. Command sequence for Linux boot:
304 a) fsl_mc start mc <FW_addr> <DPC_addr> - Start Management Complex
305 b) fsl_mc apply DPL <DPL_addr> - Apply DPL file
306 c) No DPMAC net-devices are available for use in u-boot
310 Assumption: MC firmware, DPL and DPC dtb is already programmed
313 => fsl_mc start mc 580300000 580800000
314 => setenv ethact DPMAC1@xgmii
315 => tftp a0000000 kernel.itb
316 => fsl_mc apply dpl 580700000
319 3. Command sequence for AIOP boot:
320 a) fsl_mc start mc <FW_addr> <DPC_addr> - Start Management Complex
321 b) fsl_mc start aiop <FW_addr> - Start AIOP
322 c) fsl_mc apply DPL <DPL_addr> - Apply DPL file
323 d) No DPMAC net-devices are availabe for use in u-boot
324 Please note actual AIOP start will happen during DPL parsing of
328 Assumption: MC firmware, DPL, DPC dtb and AIOP firmware is already
329 programmed on NOR flash.
331 => fsl_mc start mc 580300000 580800000
332 => fsl_mc start aiop 0x580900000
333 => setenv ethact DPMAC1@xgmii
334 => fsl_mc apply dpl 580700000
338 If the core runs at higher than x3 speed of the platform, there is
339 possiblity about sev instruction to getting missed by other cores.
340 This is because of SoC Run Control block may not able to sample
341 the EVENTI(Sev) signals.
343 Workaround: Configure Run Control and EPU to periodically send out EVENTI signals to
346 Errata workaround uses Env variable "a009635_interval_val". It uses decimal
348 - Default value of env variable is platform clock (MHz)
350 - User can modify default value by updating the env variable
351 setenv a009635_interval_val 600; saveenv;
352 It configure platform clock as 600 MHz
354 - Env variable as 0 signifies no workaround
