SK-AM64: SK-AM64 Top Level Makefile fails building firmware

Hi,

Thanks for your query , I have assigned the thread to an expert, please allow a day or two to recreate the issue and update

Regards

Hi Mark,

Make command is working fine on my side. Kindly try building with the procedure as mentioned below - 

1. Download and Install SDK from PROCESSOR-SDK-LINUX-AM64X Software development kit (SDK) | TI.com
2. Install SDK using -> 
   chmod +x ./ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.21-Linux-x86-Install.bin
   ./ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.21-Linux-x86-Install.bin
3. Go to <SDK Path> 
   cd <SDK Path>/board-support/linux-5.10.153+gitAUTOINC+3eee621d16-g3eee621d16
4. Run the following commands
   1. ti_config_fragments/defconfig_builder.sh
   2. make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-linux-gnu- ti_sdk_arm64_rt_release_defconfig
   3. make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-linux-gnu- Image
   4. make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-linux-gnu- dtbs
   5. make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-linux-gnu- modules

If still facing issue, kindly share the procedure you are following to build image.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello Rimka

You are building the kernel  I asked about building sysfw-image AND

THAT IS NOT the top level makefile you are using

Toplevel makefile is in top directory ie ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.2

Please do this type "make sysfw-image" in THIS directory ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.21

cd ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.21

From original post  its obvious I typed below

guru@TIUbuntuDevBox:~/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.21$ make sysfw-image

Please try that

Hi Mark,

I'm sorry for I was not clear of the query at my end.

Which linux version are you working with?

Thanks and Regards

Rimika

Hello Rimka

18,04 LTS Ubuntu native no VM . Make all also gives errors .

Make all works in AM335X SDK I have installed on same computer 

I need  make sysfw-image to work most important

It looks like there are some paths and compiler and env vars that need to be set up looking at the README in the firmware directory

Please advise A toplevel makefile should just work

Maybe we need some script to run first something similar to 

1. ti_config_fragments/defconfig_builder.sh

Please note my SDK IS GP ti-processor-sdk-linux-am64xx-evm-08.05.00.21

I have GP Hardware I need Firmware for it 

Thanks

Hi Mark,

I'll get back to you asap.

Thanks and Regards,

Rimika

Hi Mark,

Kindly follow these steps:

• Go to path: <SDK path>
• Edit the Makefile: vim Makefile / gedit Makefile
  • Set 'PLATFORM _TYPE_am64xx-evm = gp'
    
• Go to path: <SDK path>/board-support/prebuild-images
• Create an empty file: touch ti-sci-firmware-am64x_sr2-gp.bin
• Go back to <SDK path> and build using command: make sysfw-image

Can you try this once on your setup and as per the result obtained this will be added as a fix .

Thanks and Regards

Rimika

Hello Rimka

Here is output I try two times, Both failed first time after fail I did a make clean(this cleans most of project but has issues yet)

Hi Mark,

Kindly follow these steps:

1. Go to path: <SDK path>
2. Edit the Makefile: vim Makefile / gedit Makefile
   1. Set 'PLATFORM _TYPE_am64xx-evm = gp'
3. To create u-boot_build facility, run:
   1. make u-boot-spl
   2. make u-boot-r5
4. Go to path: <SDK path>/board-support/prebuild-images
5. Create an empty file: touch ti-sci-firmware-am64x_sr2-gp.bin
6. Go back to <SDK path> and build using command: make sysfw-image

u-boot-spl and u-boot-r5 commands will help you setup required packages.

Thanks and Regards

Rimika

Hello Rimka

That works! 

Uhmm Make All should do the same I am happy I want to  start on Cortex M4 and Cortex R5 development now uisng jtag and CCS

Before you close this can you describe what exactly Linux is loading to these R5 and M4 cores and how its done AND confirm the firmware sysfw-image we just build is for what? Wifi?

Thanks 

Mark

Hi Mark,

It's good to know it works.

• sysfw-image - Builds the system firmware itb file, which is a single binary for the system firmware release along with the different board configs. It is responsible for TI Foundational Security (TIFS), Resource management (RS), Power Management (PM) services.
  Refer this document: Chapter 1: Introduction — TISCI User Guide

• The boot loader (U-Boot/SPL) boots and loads the A53 with the HLOS. The A53 then boots the R5 and M4F cores.

• The remoteproc driver looks for specific files for loading R5 core. Here is the reference for how to boot remote cores from linux: 3.7. IPC for AM64x — Processor SDK AM64X Documentation

Thanks and Regards

Rimika
