Hi all,
Currently I'm trying to load a barebox environment image from NAND
storage but can't load it correctly.
I have given the path of my environment in the config :
CONFIG_CONSOLE_FULL=y
CONFIG_CONSOLE_ACTIVATE_FIRST=y
# CONFIG_OF_FLAT_TREE is not set
CONFIG_PARTITION=y
CONFIG_DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT=y
CONFIG_DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT_PATH="arch/arm/boards/cartesio-evb2065/env/bin"
After registering the NAND device I prepared a couple of Bad Block
aware partitions :
devfs_add_partition("nand0", 0x00000, 0x200000, PARTITION_FIXED, "self_raw");
dev_add_bb_dev("self_raw", "self0");
devfs_add_partition("nand0", 0x200000, 0x200000, PARTITION_FIXED, "env_raw");
dev_add_bb_dev("env_raw", "env0");
On compilation I get a barebox environment image - barebox_default_env.
Flashed this image to the env0 partition via DFU -
dfu -V 1 -P 24 /dev/env0
From host sent the barebox_default_env (the default_env file is page
alinged) via DFU to the NAND.
The flashing worked fine.
But now when I re-boot the system :
barebox 2010.09.0-00003-ge5727b1-dirty (Sep 27 2010 - 17:18:50)
Board: STMicroelectronics EVB2065 with Cartesio Plus
NAND device: Manufacturer ID: 0x2c, Chip ID: 0x48 (Micron NAND 2GiB 3,3V 8-bit)
Scanning device for bad blocks
Malloc space: 0x00860000 -> 0x00e60000 (size 6 MB)
Stack space : 0x00850000 -> 0x00858000 (size 32 kB)
This system is stuck at this point. Investigating further - I see that
we are stuck at
in the common/environment.c
int envfs_load(char *filename, char *dir)
{
...
buf = xmalloc(size);
buf_free = buf;
ret = read(envfd, buf, size); - Stuck here
I'm wondering why this read is failing. Could the developers shed some
light on this ?
Regards
Gaurav

Only some ideas:
Reading data from NAND really works? When this kind of trouble hits me last
time, my memory map was broken (some data transfers ruins the stack content)
and the system runs amok.

Have you tried doing a cp /dev/env0 /somefile at this point?
Have you erased /dev/env0 before doing the dfu command?

Can you confirm that the read ends in your nand driver? Does your nand
driver work properly?

Sascha,

I can confirm the NAND driver is working fine in other circumstances.
I have flashed a kernel zimage to NAND using DFU (at the kernel partition).
Copied this zimage to RAM and booted it using bootz.

I erased the entire NAND device (erase /dev/nand0) before writing
using the DFU command.
Also I'm padding the barebox_default_env file to 4096 (my NAND page
size), before flashing it.

Both must match!
Try instead:

Hi Juergen,
You are right offcourse But this is not the problem. Sorry I forgot to
mention that I used a different Barebox version for the kernel boot
part - one in which I had not defined any nand partitions statically
using devfs_add_partition :).
Thanks

Gaurav

Ups, sorry: 0x200000 != 256k (didn't count the '0' right...)

Just a question regarding the host generated environement file.
In common/environment.c - the host specific envfs_save function is setting
size = (unsigned long)data.writep;
Now there is no way of ensuring that the size is padded to Page size.
The script bareboxenv seems not to use the pad parameter to change the
size parameter of the ENVFS superblock.
Now I know that we can't issue read commands which are not multiples
of Page size. But this is exactly what we are doing in envfs_load:
size = ENVFS_32(super.size);
buf = xmalloc(size);
buf_free = buf;
ret = read(envfd, buf, size);
I think this explains why my read is failing !

Gaurav

By the way - Just to add.. I'm using the Sept 2010 release of Barebox. 2010.09.

Hi Sascha, Juergen,
I did a rather crude workaround for this. Copied the NAND partition
containing the environment from NAND on startup into a file using
run_command.
run_command("cp /dev/env0 /env_temp",0);
then
envfs_load("/env_temp", "/env")
This is working fine.
I think - overall the enfs_load logic has to be tweaked for NAND devices.
Now I wrote a new enfs_nand_load function - This basically reads a
Page of NAND (which works fine if my env file is less than 4096 :))
into the buffer and manipulates it to prepare the Environment
correctly. So basically we can read the entire environment partition
from NAND in one go and then manipulate it to prepare the env in RAM.
int envfs_nand_load(char *filename, char *dir)
{
struct envfs_super* super;
void *buf = NULL, *buf_free = NULL;
int envfd;
int fd, ret = 0;
char *str, *tmp;
int namelen_full;
unsigned long size;
envfd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
if (envfd < 0) {
printf("Open %s %s\n", filename, errno_str());
return -1;
}
/* Reading a Page into Buf */
size = ENVFS_32(4096);
buf = xzalloc(size);
buf_free = buf;
printf("1\n");
ret = read(envfd, buf, size);
if (ret < size) {
perror("read");
ret = errno;
goto out;
}
super = (struct envfs_super *)buf;
if ( ENVFS_32(super->magic) != ENVFS_MAGIC) {
printf("envfs: wrong magic on %s\n", filename);
ret = -EIO;
goto out;
}
if (crc32(0, (unsigned char *)super, sizeof(struct envfs_super) - 4)
!= ENVFS_32(super->sb_crc)) {
printf("wrong crc on env superblock\n");
ret = -EIO;
goto out;
}
void *buf2;
size = ENVFS_32(super->size);
/* Rest on ENV except Superblock to be kept in buf2 */
buf2 = (void *)((char *)buf + sizeof(struct envfs_super));
if (crc32(0, (unsigned char *)buf2, size)
!= ENVFS_32(super->crc)) {
printf("wrong crc on env\n");
ret = -EIO;
goto out;
}
while (size) {
struct envfs_inode *inode;
uint32_t inode_size, inode_namelen;
inode = (struct envfs_inode *)buf2;
if (ENVFS_32(inode->magic) != ENVFS_INODE_MAGIC) {
printf("envfs: wrong magic on %s\n", filename);
ret = -EIO;
goto out;
}
inode_size = ENVFS_32(inode->size);
inode_namelen = ENVFS_32(inode->namelen);
debug("loading %s size %d namelen %d\n", inode->data,
inode_size, inode_namelen);
str = concat_path_file(dir, inode->data);
tmp = strdup(str);
make_directory(dirname(tmp));
free(tmp);
fd = open(str, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, 0644);
free(str);
if (fd < 0) {
printf("Open %s\n", errno_str());
ret = fd;
goto out;
}
namelen_full = PAD4(inode_namelen);
ret = write(fd, buf2 + namelen_full + sizeof(struct
envfs_inode),
inode_size);
if (ret < inode_size) {
perror("write");
ret = errno;
close(fd);
goto out;
}
close(fd);
buf2 += PAD4(inode_namelen) + PAD4(inode_size) +
sizeof(struct envfs_inode);
size -= PAD4(inode_namelen) + PAD4(inode_size) +
sizeof(struct envfs_inode);
}
ret = 0;
out:
close(envfd);
if (buf_free)
free(buf_free);
return ret;
}

Hi all,
Well turns out my character device inode values were being overwritten
by the NAND buffer contents... this was because I have to change
NAND_MAX_PAGESIZE from 2048 to 4096 ! I have a NAND on my board where
Page size is 4096.
It is working fine now - no need for a seperate envfs_nand_load function.
Thanks
Regards
Gaurav
