barebox startup

[Vanalme Filip <F.Vanalme@TELEVIC.com>]

After struggling a while with i.MX27 NAND flash controller, I was able to start Barebox. Now, I have added some device, but I am not sure that everything starts as it should.
This is how my devices_init function looks like now : 

static struct memory_platform_data ram_pdata = {
	.name = "ram0",
	.flags = DEVFS_RDWR,
};

static struct device_d sdram_dev = {
	.id	  = -1,
	.name     = "mem",
	.map_base = 0xa0000000,
	.size     = 128 * 1024 * 1024,  /* 128 MB SDRAM */
	.platform_data = &ram_pdata,
};

static struct fec_platform_data fec_info = {
	.xcv_type = MII100,
	.phy_addr = 1,
};

static struct imx_nand_platform_data nand_info = {
    .width      = 1,
    .hw_ecc     = 1,
    .flash_bbt  = 1,
};

static int imx27pdk_devices_init(void)
{
  int i;

  unsigned int mode[] = {
      /* FEC */
      PD0_AIN_FEC_TXD0,
      PD1_AIN_FEC_TXD1,

  /* initialize gpios */
  for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(mode); i++)
     imx_gpio_mode(mode[i]);

  register_device(&sdram_dev);
  imx27_add_fec(&fec_info);
  imx27_add_nand(&nand_info);

  devfs_add_partition("nand0", 0x00000, 0x40000, PARTITION_FIXED, "self_raw");
  dev_add_bb_dev("self_raw", "self0");

  devfs_add_partition("nand0", 0x40000, 0x20000, PARTITION_FIXED, "env_raw");
  dev_add_bb_dev("env_raw", "env0");


  armlinux_add_dram(&sdram_dev);
  armlinux_set_bootparams((void *)0xa0000100);

  return 0;
}

device_initcall(imx27pdk_devices_init);


(I used the pcm038 board as a reference. Most of the items in this function I took from that board's lowlevel function).

When starting up, I get the following console output :

barebox 2010.12.0-00073-gfad11e8-dirty (Feb  9 2011 - 14:09:49)

This is the console output when executing the devinfo command :

I expected to see the autoboot count-down and at least something about the network initialization. 
I think it probably has something to do with the env/config script file. I don't know exactly how it should be used. I ran ./scripts/bareboxenv -s -p 0x10000 arch/arm/imx27pdk/env env.bin which created env.bin in the barebox root. Afterwards, when doing a make all, I could see that there is a /env folder on my device which contains the config file. I could execute that script from the command line, but I suppose it should be executed automatically somehow.


For the moment, I don't have any activity on my Ethernet ports (no leds on or blinking), although I added the fec device. When I execute the dhcp command, I get :

barebox:/ dhcp
warning: No MAC address set. Using random address 8E:A2:E8:DD:E2:73
phy0: Link is up - 100/Full
transmission timeout
T transmission timeout
T transmission timeout

But, whether I connect the cable or not, it always shows "phy0:Link is up - 100/Full".

I also have a problem with the environment settings. Obviously, I can set some environment variables, e.g. ipaddr=192.168.1.10 :

barebox:/ ipaddr=192.168.1.10
barebox:/ printenv
locals:
ipaddr=192.168.1.10
globals:
barebox:/ saveenv
saving environment
barebox:/

But, although I did a saveenv (obviously successful), the environment settings disappear after resetting the board.



I think I might still miss something to make my board start correctly.

Someone can point me in the good direction ? (or point me to some doc about this)

Filip
