kernel 3.5 and device-tree support...

Fixed it:

cat board/Seagate/goflexnet/goflexnet.c| grep mpp

#include <asm/arch/mpp.h>
	u32 kwmpp_config[] = {
	kirkwood_mpp_conf(kwmpp_config);

Built OK now.

uBoot for iConnect build error:

@rpress,

I've fixed the iconnect build error, too.

/usr/src/u-boot-2012.04.01/common# grep -in CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT hush.c
1014: n = readline(CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT);
1016: // n = readline(CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2);
1017: n = readline(CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT);

/usr/src/u-boot-2012.04.01/board/Iomega/iconnect# grep -i mpp_conf iconnect.c
u32 kwmpp_config[] = {
kirkwood_mpp_conf(kwmpp_config);

Probably the wrong patch was included in your tarball for u-boot-2012.04.01?

I should note that I didn't come up with these patches, I just got it working with FDT. I forget where I saw it originally, it's been 7 months... It looks like there is a typo in iconnect.h:

#define CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HISH_PS2 "> "

should be

#define CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT_HUSH_PS2 "> "

I don't know why the parameter list is different in kirkwood_mpp_conf, my version (which does show 04-01-2012) requires two parameters. Maybe there was some other patch applied to the version I have.

Anyway, have you tried it yet?

The GoflexNet patch is actually for newer version (uboot.2013.01 built fine with it). I will try this instead.

The patch for GoFlex Net works great so far! I was able to boot a non-DT kernel with uboot.2013.01 compiled with this patch. I will try a DT kernel with it.

@rpress,

Could you post your uBoot env script to boot a FDT kernel?

Thanks

@Kurlon,

Do you know where is the normal dtb load addr for kirkwoods?

Thanks,

I got the U-Boot 2013.01 running with FDT-enabled kernel 3.6.11 on a GoFlex Net.

U-Boot 2013.01 has most of the board definitions, except for GoFlex Net/Home and Pogoplug Mobile/V4.

So we coud have these versions:

uboot.2013.01.goflexnet.mtd0.kwb
uboot.2013.01.iconnect.mtd0.kwb
uboot.2013.01.dockstar.mtd0.kwb
uboot.2013.01.pogo_e02.mtd0.kwb
uboot.2013.01.sheevaplug.mtd0.kwb

I'm looking to add the Pogo V4 to this group. Will do more testing and post back.

@Davy, I could do more testing for SATA booting, if you provide the patch.

U-Boot 2013.01 boots fine with either non-FDT or FDT kernel. However, it seems that netconsole is broken. A strange problem I'm seeing is that the 2nd character is lost on the netconsole prompt. For example:

> setenv
became
> stenv

And typing
> booot
would get it continue booting, but it never boot the kernel successfully from netconsole.

Booting with or without serial console does not have this problem.

Hi bodhi,

Are you/davy any closer to an FDT compatible uboot for DockStar?

duduke,

As mentioned above and in other uBoot threads, I'm stuck at a netconsole problem. Even with the latest version (2003.04), I'm seeing this problem in my build. I've successfully booted a GoFlex Net and Pogo E02 with uBoot for FDT kernel (both in serial console manual booting and booting without interrupting). So I'm confident that it works, as long as netconsole is not activated during booting. I've also tested a Dockstar uBoot (only booting uBoot, not kernel) version, but have not flashed it, since I don't have JTAG to test with, atm.

Because not everybody has serial console to recover, netconsole is pretty important, so I did not upload it for general consumption.
