Description Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2014-07-15 12:10:58 UTC

Description of problem:
With current uboot-tools-2014.04-6.fc21 in rawhide I cannot boot using the produced paz00 build target.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
uboot-tools-2014.04-6.fc21

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
From host:
1. tegrarcm --bct paz00_bct.img --bootloader u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin --loadaddr=0x00108000


Actual results:
black screen (no more info, paz00 doens't has serial easily accessible)
I will try to reproduce on trimslice with serial.

Expected results:
It should run fedora boot.scr or open prompt for uboot cmdline.

Additional info:
upstream uboot-2014.04 is working fine.

I will provide more informations about the patches I've disabled from the uboot fedora package later (I've kept fedora generic distro patches). But I have a problem to work on a problem that was introduced by downstream patches or device specific patches I don't own.

Instead I would suggest that hardware specific patches could be applied into an alternate source directory instead of generic source tree for all devices.

I can work on implementing that after the uboot-tools rebase.

kwizart: As requested numerous times please add ARM blockers to the appropriate tracker ticket

Comment 2 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2014-07-18 15:13:34 UTC

I'm still testing (so close to every distro patches are disabled in the git repo) but using only some limited patches (that attempt to use the generic distro concept) worked:
http://fedorapeople.org/cgit/kwizart/public_git/uboot-tools.git/commit/?id=2266cdda1c0da96cac6204188cfd00f781bb8310

So it means something in the disabled "device specifics" or HYP patches affected the tegra platform (and maybe others).

Comment 3 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2014-08-03 16:32:30 UTC

Unfortunately I broke my trimslice serial cable before to do the test.
Before that, I can confirm that vanilla uboot version 2014.07 and current git both operate correctly. the current package based on 2014.04 with OOT patches does not operate correctly on trimslice and paz00.

This was tested putting trimslice in recovery mode and using:
tegrarcm --bct trimslice-mmc.bct --bootloader u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin  --loadaddr=0x108000


The remaining test candidate is jetson-tk1 which works correctly in vanilla uboot git despite I still cannot boot:

fdtdir is still not updated across kernel updates
But that's issues not related to uboot itself...

Comment 4 Peter Robinson 2014-09-19 23:38:24 UTC

Now the distro support patchset is upstream for Tegra in 2014.10rc1 we don't use any downstream patches. If there's still a problem is should be reported upstream.
