Hisi BSP Part1 - Build environment for Toolchain/Kernel/u-boot

When I got a BSP, I used to find kernel, u-boot and toolchain first.

After setup cross-compiler toolchain path to env


A.Kernel Part

Kernel source code Path :  osdrv/opensource/kernel/linux-3.18.y.tgz

After  decompress it. copy default kernel config

cp arch/arm/configs/hi3516cv300_full_defconfig  .config

menuconfig :

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi- menuconfig

make kernel :

make -j4 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi- uImage


Compiler kernel succeed^_^



B.BootLoader Part

uboot source code Path : osdrv/opensource/uboot/u-boot-2010.06.tgz
After decompress u-boot.tgz file, Enter u-boot root folder. Type below commands.

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi- hi3516cv300_config
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-

After comiler, many errors.... I think Hisi-uboot document wrote not good. And Makefile also has problem. Ok, Let's find how to solve this problem.

u-boot Compiler Error Solution :
Enter to Toolchain Folder. Enter bin Folder and Find these compiler tool gcc, objdump, ar, objcopy, ld, ranlib, nm .

ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-gcc arm-hisiv600-linux-gcc
ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-objdump arm-hisiv600-linux-objdump
ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-ar arm-hisiv600-linux-ar
ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-objcopy arm-hisiv600-linux-objcopy
ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-ld arm-hisiv600-linux-ld
ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-ranlib arm-hisiv600-linux-ranlib
ln -sf arm-hisiv600-linux-gnueabi-nm arm-hisiv600-linux-nm

Enter u-boot root folder.  And enter below commands
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-hisiv600-linux- hi3516cv300_config
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-hisiv600-linux-
 
Finally, compiler  succeed.





But this u-boot cann't be burn to NorFlash.
It need to add ddr-reg binary to u-boot.bin

Find the pc tool, Enter folder osdrv/tools/pc/uboot_tools
Open Hi3516CV300-DEMB-uboot-DDR3_1066M-16bit-256MB-ARM9_800M-BUS_266M.xls
Edit tab mddrc_dmc and mddrc_phy for your DDR. Go to tab main and click Generage reg bin file.





Generate a binary file.




Combine cfg.bin and u-boot.bin
Enter below command:
./mkboot.sh cfg.bin u-boot-ok.bin


End
