U-Boot for Zyxel NSA-325v2 kwboot didn't help

Hi,
There is no stock uboot or doesn't start. I don't know history of this hardware.
Is it hardware issue or I can try something else:

/kwboot-tool# kwboot -t -B 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0 -b uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa325.mtd0.kwb -p 
Sending boot message. Please reboot the target...\

I have second nsa325v2 and it is working fine. Does it mean that this is hardware issue ? Is there any thing else I can try ?

Unfortunately, it might be hardware problem. Some NSA325 (very few) has this behavior that it is just stuck at this point.

If you let it boot without kwboot and just run serial console, then what is the behavior?


=====

You could try to run a newer version of kwboot to see if it helps showing more info.

If you've already tried the above versions and it did not help, you can run the current kwboot in your Debian rootfs. It is likely a newer version than the one I uploaded above.

Nothing. Even single character

> kwboot-2016.05.tar

After unpack:

./kwboot
bash: ./kwboot: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

I used both version of kwboot (from your website and provided with system) and the same result(first post).

Current behavior is power led (blue) turn on fir 31 seconds turn off for 1 second and again turn on for 31 seconds and again again ...

That's actually a bit of a good clue! this box has a HW watchdog that kicks in every 30 seconds. If it were silent than I would say only installing JTAG would be able to unbrick it.

Is this behavior the same whether you boot with stock u-boot, and boot with kwboot? In my u-boot build, which you loaded with kwboot, the watchdog is killed right away upon starting, so it would be really strange if watchdog is still alive.

You are right. We I load your uboot the Power LED is not blinking after 30 seconds. Also fan is control (RPM is changing). On ethernet I don't see any packet (wireshark) but the physical link is up.

kofec,

It think it is likely a bad RAM chip.

The fact that the watchdog was killed during kwboot, told me that the BootROM has done all the necessary preparation to run u-boot. And then u-boot image loading was successful, so it about or starting to run u-boot image, but u-boot crashed too early for us to see the u-boot banner.

If you don't want to have to install JTAG and consider this is a brick for now, then put this box on the shelves until I have time to figure out how to verify this is a HW problem (I can't promise if or when I can do it).

Thanks a lot for you help. I also suspect RAM module but I was surprised that u-boot image loading was successful - As I understand it was loaded to RAM. If we tried all known simple methods to recover this device I going to sell it - I will describe all our findings. Maybe someone needs the case or have tools and knowledge to replace RAM module. So thanks again for you help.

Right. However, when u-boot starts, there will be more memory relocation and heap space allocated,..... So I'm guessing that when the crash occurred.

I did rebuild a Pogo V4 u-boot with DEBUG to run a test to see if we can see some more info. But it did not print out much (in fact there is only one extra line) before the version banner. So it is not a good sign that we can see a whole lot with the rebuild of NSA325. But until that is confirmed with the NSA325 image, there is still some slim hope.

The complicate method is to install a JTAG header and then run OpenOCD like in this thread:
https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,21789

At the moment we don't have the configuration file for NSA325 to run JTAG. So that would make the JTAG solution even more time consuming.

Here is the NSA325 u-boot rebuilt with full DEBUG on. Hope it will tell more about what's going on. Please try kwboot with this version.

kofec,

As I've suspected, the crash/hang might have occured too early.

In the normal case, there at least one debug print statement that should output an initcall() before the banner.

So basically, I don't see we can try any more simple methods to figure out.

More investigation will be complicated (i.e. add debug printf, using JTAG).

is there any picture where to find the JTAG pin on NSA325 v1 or v2?

buec65,

> is there any picture where to find the JTAG pin on

I do have a NSA325 board with JTAG header installed. I believe this board UART port is damaged, and asked my friend to install a JTAG header to so I can revive it in the future.

But I did not have enough time to revisit this project.

The Kirkwood JTAG port should be the same in these boxes. It is a standard JTAG port.

So see the Popo E02 thread for the pinouts:

https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,21789

I have to dig it out of my shelf if you need to see the pic of this JTAG header on the board.

UART of my NSA325 didn´t show a massage, but i think it is because of broken firmware.

RaspberryPi B+ is available - i will try to rescue NSA325

Cool! I think between Joerg, you, and I, we should be able to figure out the procedure for JTAG on this box.

The USB drive has a problem, probably a brand that u-boot does not like. What brand is this? If it is not Sandisk or Transcend, get one of these 2 brands of flash drive if you could.

This HDD needs to be reformatted. Use fdisk to wipe it first. And then create a brand new partition.

It is not NAND problem. The CRC error was simply that you did not flash the env image to NAND during installation. However, the u-boot internal envs are used if that happened. So there is no need to flash envs to NAND until after you have logged into Debian.

In fact, you could run the box with this CRC error, unless you want to set u-boot envs in Debian.

So I would recommend you use fdisk to wipe the HDD and recreate the rootfs. Don't use any other tool in this case.

If there is still problem after that, then you should use dd to wipe it, and then use fdisk to create partition again.

Maybe there is a way in opnocd

- Create a new rootfs on a USB drive thumb drive. Preferably a Sandisk thumb drive.
- Boot with kwboot and plug in the USB drive.
- Do

usb reset

When u-boot can initialize the USB drive successfuly, boot into Debian. And then install u-boot image and its envs image.

There is no difference between serial console and JTAG, as far as booting a u-boot image in memory after it was loaded.

buec65,

I think you should flash u-boot to NAND in serial console to unbrick it first. Make it more convenient to trouble shoot the drives. I will post a few commands to do that.

In the mean time, you should also check your power supply to see if it has enough juice in accordance with the specs.This one has a barrel connector, so a lot of other power supply unit can be used with this box. Also if you have a multimeter, then it is easy to see.

bodhi,

power supply tested with other nsa325v2 work ok - used 2 or 3 different power supplies already.

> I will post a few commands to do that.

i will be happy trying this.

take as many time you need to find the commands - i am not in a hurry

buec65,

> sorry for my bad english - left school in 1983

:) not a problem for me. I understood you just fine.

Here is how we flash the image in serial console.

==================


Flashing NSA325 u-boot in serial console
04 Jul 2020



1. In serial console (either after you kwboot into the box successfully, or just a regular serial console is fine), prepare tftpboot server and this box IP addresses. Assuming your router is 192.168.0.1, you tftp server is 192.168.0.220, and you want the NSA325 to be 192.168.0.231.

setenv serverip 192.168.0.220
setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.231

And put the image uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa325.mtd0.kwb in the /tftproot folder where the tftp server is.

2. Load the image to see if it is loaded OK.

tftpboot 0x800000 uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa325.mtd0.kwb

If it was loaded successfully, proceed to the next step.

3. Erase the 1st MB on mtd0

nand erase 0x0 0x100000

4. Flash this 512K u-boot image to 0x0 (here we load the image again to make sure it is clean).

tftpboot 0x800000 /uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa325.mtd0.kwb
nand write 0x800000 0x0 0x80000

5. Reset the box at serial console prompt

reset

6. Upon reboot successfully, interrupt serial console and

printenv

Now flash u-boot image uboot.2017.07-tld-1.nsa325.mtd0.kwb.

It should help with this "EHCI timed out on TD" problem.

buec65,

1. Set the env and restart USB

setenv usb_ready_retry 15
usb reset

See if the retry period helps. If playing with usb_ready_retry like above did not help, then

2. Try a different USB flash drive. Preferably a newer and better brand such as Sandisk, or Transcend.

I think the error "EHCI timed out on TD" has not been completely fixed with ray's patch.

Quote

New/updated in 2017.07-tld-1 version:

- Rebase u-boot code to track mainline 2017.07.
- Incorporated patch to fix "EHCI timed out on TD" error with USB drives.
