Subject: Confusion about memory layout
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2014 08:51:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOpc7mEpS4sSB0f8uYhJZDRVyJFL8BYWccBOPsN-N82Jc6iB1w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I'm trying to get barebox running via usb-download. Unfortunately, the
verify step failed (see log below). This made me think about my memory
layout, but I'm a bit helpless here.

If I look at arch/arm/mach-imx/Kconfig, I see that several i.MX boards
define different CONFIG_ARCH_TEXT_BASE. Why?

default 0x4fc00000 if MACH_MX6Q_ARM2
default 0x4fc00000 if MACH_SABRELITE
... some other also, but look at this:
default 0x17800000 if MACH_SABRESD

And why specify most x4fc0_0000 ?  Doesn't the physical memory map of
DDR3 start at x1000_0000 or 0x8000_0000, depending on mapping ?


Similarly: the "loadaddr" statement in various *.imxcfg files are also
different:

loadaddr 0x00907000
loadaddr 0x10000000
loadaddr 0x20000000

I'd have expected that all will be loaded at 0x1000_0000, the start of DDR RAM?



That made me think about my memory map is the "00000400:" vs.
"10000400:" prefix in the following compare:

barebox/scripts/imx/imx-usb-loader -c -v barebox/barebox.imx
found i.MX6q USB device [15a2:0054]
main dcd length 308
sub dcd length 304
loading binary file(barebox/barebox.imx) to 10000000, skip=0x0,
fsize=249800 type=170...
binary file successfully loaded
