Please do. It's for installation instruction and someone's benefit who is following this session.

You need to repeat Step 7 only.

@bodhi
In case you missed my second edit I hadn't closed the console so I was able to copy the output to my post.

UPDATE:

bodhi: Saw that :)

Synology RS816 Repartition SPI Flash and Flashing kernel zImage (Cont.)

Part IV

8. Setup to boot zImage and DTB in flash

After finishing Step 7, reboot with serial console, interrupt the countdown and

Set the mtdparts again
setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=spi0.0:896k(u-boot),64k(dtb),7104k(kernel),-(env)'

And set up for booting
setenv boot_config_spi 'setenv image_addr_spi 0x0F0000; setenv image_size_spi 0x006f0000; setenv dtb_addr_spi 0x0E0000; setenv dtb_size_spi 0x010000; sf probe 0 50000000'
setenv load_image_spi 'echo loading zImage from flash ...; sf read $load_image_addr $image_addr_spi $image_size_spi'
setenv load_dtb_spi 'echo loading DTB from flash ...; sf read $loadaddr_dt $dtb_addr_spi $dtb_size_spi'
setenv bootcmd_exec 'echo Booting Debian ...; run set_bootargs; setenv fdt_skip_update yes; setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff; run boot_config_spi; run load_image_spi; run load_dtb_spi; bootz $load_image_addr - $load_dtb_addr'

And print out the envs for reference and boot
printenv
boot

Please post the entire serial console log here.

There was a typo in bootcmd_exec! I've edited the Part IV post above.

Richard,

I've forgot the setenv for mtdparts again! Hope you caught that.

Separate post for small amendments (three apostrophe's) to your env and to check they were typos and not as you intended ?

Changes in red
setenv boot_config_spi 'setenv image_addr_spi 0x0F0000; setenv image_size_spi 0x006f0000; setenv dtb_addr_spi 0x0E0000; setenv dtb_size_spi 0x010000; sf probe 0 50000000'
setenv load_image_spi 'echo loading zImage from flash ...; sf read $load_image_addr $image_addr_spi $image_size_spi'
setenv load_dtb_spi 'echo loading DTB from flash ...; sf read $loadaddr_dt $dtb_addr_spi $dtb_size_spi'
bootcmd_exec='echo Booting Debian ...; run set_bootargs; setenv fdt_skip_update yes; setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff; run boot_config_spi; run load_image_spi; run load_dtb_spi; bootz $load_image_addr - $load_dtb_addr'

Will post output

Just a small point for the how to. At various stages of the process there is an assumption that a good set of environments are set, for example the last set of commands assumes the bootargs line is saved. Maybe simplest solution is get users to saveenv before they start any of the how to steps which would prevent a situation where up to that point they (like I used to) enter the setenv's every time whilst they are experimenting, this would prevent an unintentional boot into stock the pain of which is still fresh in my mind.

EDIT
Get rid of some awful typos

Just wanted to say a big Thank You for all the effort you have put into this and for producing a great SPI flash guide, I know for myself its one thing being able to do something and quite another to write a guide under which your average users isn't going to fall down a hole. To do this "blind" without the hardware in front of you makes the achievement all the more noteworthy.

Many Thanks again

That's exactly the intend. We have been tool-proofing the procedure so saveenv is never used until... like right now :)

The best installation procedure is from inside stock OS perspective. So the envs are saved each time you do a fw_setenv. When you start writing the installation procedure, you could boot back to stock and pretend you have not done anything, and restart the steps from there. The Debian rootfs step can be abbreviated when I release the Buster version. We just need the flashing or the HDD writing procedure to install the kernel files.

Now that the flash procedure is done. Let's take a breather (a glass of shiraz would be appropriate :) and worry about the HDD loading tomorrow!

I'm not sure if true but I read you can just cat the DTB into uInitrd so to simplify things I am trying it out.

Richard,

No need to.

In this booting scheme, we just want to load all 3 files(zImage, uInitrd, DTB) from HDD into memory, and then boot. So bootz should be used.

Try that and if we need to go to bootm approach then I'll post the commands (it should be done differently than what you did above).

Don't use imi, except for uInitrd.

You should use the images that we prepare for flashing to SPI. And write them to HDD raw sector. It is better to use the images.

I will use the SPI images as you suggest but to make sure I understand you correctly you mean the ones ending *.kwb ?

I was going to pull the DTB from tftp to keep my life simpler for now, remember I have no idea how to work out the scsi read addresses.

Whilst I dd the images can you cast an eye over the env's I was going to pass.
scsi init

setenv serverip 192.168.1.2

My second run was against uImage which returned "unknown image format" which is why I asked if it needed to be built in the build directory. You have already said it doesn't which makes me question if the address I am trying to read is wrong ? If the adress is incorrect for imi to recognize it then it probably won't load under bootz either even though we are pulling zImage in that scenario.

EDIT
Or I used the wrong command to create uImage ?

Richard,

I will use the SPI images as you suggest but to make sure I understand you correctly you mean the ones ending *.kwb ?

Yes

rs816.zImage.mtd2.kwb and uInitrd. Or just rs816.zImage.mtd2.kwb for now.

Quote

Bad Linux ARM zImage magic!

Ah! OK. Store the zImage as is then! dont use the rs816.zImage.mtd2.kwb.

So you need to look at the size of this zImage.

It is best that you post:

- The command to store zImage on HDD.
- And then the serial bootlog

zImage or uImage should not be really different store and load. So in our case,


Try
dd if=zImage of=/dev/sda bs=1MiB seek=10

Later load it:
setenv load_image 'echo loading zImage from raw HDD ...; scsi device 0; scsi read $load_image_addr 0x5000 0x2000

Note the 0x5000 is 10MB (which is where you wrote the zImage), and 0x2000 is block count. That block count could be different, depending on how big the zImage is and where uInitd begins (which we don't care right now).

Richard,

:))

Let's use uImage. Does not matter which image format we use, really. As long as it can be loaded and executed. zImage is preferred, but is too picky with the magic number, and not worth spending time on it.


To generate uImage, you can do it on any Linux box (either x86 or ARM is OK, notice that the option is -A arm). But more convenient to do it on RS816, so assume you do it natively:

cd /boot
cp -a uImage uImage.bak     ### if there is one then we back it up
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-5.1.2-mvebu-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-5.1.2-mvebu-tld-1 uImage

So after you stored uImage to disk, the load command should load it to the same address as zImage before.

And the bootcmd_exec becomes (without loading uInitrd):

setenv bootcmd_exec 'echo Booting Debian . . .; run set_bootargs; setenv fdt_skip_update yes; setenv initrd_high 0xffffffff; run load_image; run load_dtb; bootm $load_image_addr - $load_dtb_addr''
