If you did the USB installation OK, then this will be the same. I forgot what your boot log looks like, but I think it is the same stock u-boot for RS816 and DS116.

Hi, have you found time for this? It is important to me because I have no idea how to upgrade kernel since in section I 5b I had to flash kernel permanently to mtd2.

bonk1990,

I forgot about this! I think I accidentally closed a browser tab a while ago so lost track of this. I'll take a look.

bonk1990,

Above is the installation instruction. You are the tester for this!

So the testing ground rules is: perform each step and if you see any error or abnormal behavior, stop and post before proceed to the next step. Don't try to replace any Step with something equivalence that you think it will work.

And please post the entire serial console log (and also the Steps performed while not in serial console). Please do this whenever you stop for question, or at the end of a successful installation.

bonk1990,

Error: SCSI Controller(s) 1B4B:9215 1B4B:9235 not found
scanning bus for devices...
Found 0 device(s).

So the HDD was not detected. The rest does not matter.

Might be because it is a different u-boot from the RS816.

U-Boot 2013.01-g6cc0a6d (Jan 29 2016 - 17:30:11) Marvell version: 2015_T1.0p16

Board: SYNO-DS116
SoC:   MV88F6820 Rev A0
       running 2 CPUs

So repeat at Step 4 (Step 1 to Step 3 were OK).

But this time do each command step by step after interrupting serial console:

Marvell>> setenv load_image_addr 0x02000000
Marvell>> setenv load_initrd_addr 0x3000000
Marvell>> setenv load_image 'echo loading uImage from raw HDD ...; scsi device 0; scsi read $load_image_addr 0x5000 0x2F00'
Marvell>> setenv load_initrd 'echo loading uInitrd from raw HDD ...; scsi device 0; scsi read $load_initrd_addr 0xA000 0x4F00'
Marvell>> setenv set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs "console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $mtdparts earlyprintk=serial"'
Marvell>> setenv bootcmd_exec 'echo Booting Debian ...; run set_bootargs; setenv fdt_skip_update yes; setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff; run load_image; run load_initrd; bootm $load_image_addr $load_initrd_addr'
Marvell>> setenv bootcmd 'scsi init; run bootcmd_exec; echo Booting Stock OS ...; run bootspi'

At this point, list the available commands:

help

And then try

ide reset

That was to see if this version of u-boot use ide command instead of scsi command.

If ide reset gives out error and if the disk was initialized. If not, try

scsi reset

And if we still see error, then most likely an extra step is needed to activate the HDD power.

Apparently, this u-boot is similar to one on some other MVEBU NAS boxes, scsi command is supported, not ide.


And the behavior is also similar, most likely that the HDD power is probably not activated in u-boot (intentionally, so that the HDD cannot be accessed during u-boot booting).

Let's look back to other MVEBU boxes installation and find where the SATA power pokes and perhaps they can be used the same way.

bonk1990,

Try to run the commands several times (to see if the disk was just slow coming up).


Interrup u-boot at count down, wait about 5 seconds

scsi reset

Repeat this several time, each time wait about 3 seconds.

Do the same test with

scsi init

----------

Warning: if the attempts with "scsi reset" and "scsi init" did not work, and you decide to poke the GPIO as below, make sure that the inserted HDD does not contain anything important. And no USB drive are plugged in.

Without the GPLsource for this DS116 box, we cannot really know for sure which GPIO is the one to activate HDD power.

This is the command that does the poke for NAS326. If the NAS326 (Armada 380) and this box (Armada 385) use the same GPIO for HDD power then it should work. But different manufacturers can potentially use different GPIO.

setenv sata_init 'mw.l f1018100 20420000; mw.l f1018140 003ca800; sleep 3; scsi init'

I don't recall which mw.l in the above command will activate the HDD power. I think it is the second one.

mw.l f1018140 003ca800

is there a way to find gpio?

bonk1990,

1. Which DTB are you using to boot this box? perhaps there is a HDD power GPIO in the DTS.

2. FInd the GPL source for this DS116. It should have GPIOs specifically assigned to this box in there somewhere.

I have no idea how to use it in "mw.l" command.

bonk1990,

First dump the memory content of these 2 memory banks: GPIO0 address f1018100 and GPIO1 address f1018140

md.l f1018100 1
md.l f1018140 1

And then modify the content of the GPIO0 to turn on the bit 15 (right to left, 0 to 31).

You want to set that bit 15 to 1. Do this temporarily on a notepad, The result is xxx.

And then write the result xxx back to the memory address f1018100

mw.l f1018100 xxx

Great progress!

So GPIO 23 is the correct one.

But is it really a 29.8 GB HDD?

So the load address needs to be adjusted in this u-boot. Let me think about it and look at the log and come back.

I was testing with 4TB HDD because I wanted to hear that disk was powered up. After that I switch to 32GB SSD. It is correct size.

Boot procedure with USB and tftp works fine. And it is the same address?

setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.19
setenv serverip 192.168.1.20
setenv usb_setup 'setenv usbActive 1; setenv usbType 3; usb start;'                
setenv load_initrd_addr 0x3000000
setenv load_image_addr 0x02000000
setenv load_image 'echo loading uImage from tftpserver ...; tftpboot $load_image_addr uImage'
setenv load_initrd 'echo loading uInitrd from tftpserver ...; tftpboot $load_initrd_addr uInitrd'
setenv set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs "console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootdelay=10 $mtdparts earlyprintk=serial"'
setenv bootcmd_exec 'echo Booting Debian . . .; run usb_setup;  run set_bootargs; setenv fdt_skip_update yes; setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff; run load_image; run load_initrd; bootm $load_image_addr $load_initrd_addr'
setenv bootcmd 'run bootcmd_exec; run bootspi'
boot

bonk,

It looks the same addresses for both uImage and uInitrd as in USB boot envs.

So back track to your flashing uInitrd to the HDD. Double check that part to see if it was written to the correct location.

I don't know what is wrong yet, but I have a question.
If (in future) i want to update kernel i need to zero first 50MB of HDD every time (every kernel update)? If i'm not wrong this command break partition table on HDD.

Second question: usb rootfs
How to update kernel? By this procedure?

cd /boot
dd if=uImage of=rs816.uImage.mtd2.kwb bs=7104k conv=sync
flashcp -v rs816.uImage.mtd2.kwb /dev/mtd2

You only need to overwrite the uImage and uInitrd at their locations.

Right, update the kernel while the system is running. That will give you new uImage in /boot. And then write it to flash like above.

=====

Now it's time to discuss the uInitrd loading. The installation procedure for both USB is a little bit incomplete. Because we did not write uInitrd to flash, and when you boot the box the 2nd time and after, it does not load unitrd. Instead we relies on the bootargs to tell the kernel that the rootfs is on /dev/sda1:

setenv set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs "console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10 $mtdparts earlyprintk=serial"'

The USB installation was really written just enough to get you booting the USB rootfs. But in reality, the modules in initrd were not loaded automatically at boot time. And you cannot use the bootargs root=LABEL=rootfs to tell the kernel where the rootfs is in a flexible way.

With the HDD installation, we load both uImage and uInitrd, so the root=LABEL=rootfs works as intended.

So the best way to boot this box with stock u-boot is booting from the HDD raw sectors.

Of course, if we have the GPL source and rebuild stock u-boot to support USB and HDD, we will not need to use raw sectors.

Hm, will that be good? https://sourceforge.net/projects/dsgpl/files/Synology%20NAS%20GPL%20Source/24922branch/armada38x-source/

bonk,

This looks promising:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/dsgpl/files/Synology%20NAS%20GPL%20Source/24922branch/armada38x-source/u-boot-armada-2011.12.txz/download

I've downloaded it. Will take a look.

No luck. It is for Armada XP and 370.

To bad. Thanks for info.

Maybe u-boot-mv-3.6.0.txz? Maybe -mv means Marvell?

Regarding u-boot-mv-3.6.0.txz. mv means Marvell. But this is for the Kirkwood boxes.

Let me see if I can spend sometime later to look closer in the u-boot-armada-2011.12.txz. I found it quite strange that it is under armada38x-source:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/dsgpl/files/Synology%20NAS%20GPL%20Source/24922branch/armada38x-source/

but the RS816 and DS116 don't have a build script. Only other Synology boxes that use Armada 370 and XP have a build script.

And I guess you can also ask Synology to provide GPL source for your box u-boot. It is a custom build for u-boot 2013.01.

U-Boot 2013.01-g6cc0a6d (Jan 29 2016 - 17:30:11) Marvell version: 2015_T1.0p16

They are obligated to provide GPL source to the purchasers of their products.

Indeed, it is strange. In that location we can find:
u-boot-mv-3.6.0.txz
u-boot-mv-3.5.9.txz
u-boot-mv-3.5.3.txz
u-boot-mv-3.4.27.txz
u-boot-armada-2011.12.txz
u-boot-mv-3.4.4.txz
u-boot-1.3.3.txz

I have send a request do Synology.
