AM3352: AM335x Boot from eMMC issue

Kelsey Morgan

Part Number: AM3352

Hello,

We have our own custom board design that has the AM3352. We have successfully booted from the SD card, then ported the code over to the eMMC chip. The U-Boot runs off the eMMC, but it does not load the Kernel.

When the U-boot scans for the eMMC, it is not found most of the time. Sometimes it does, but regardless the Kernel does not boot. We have an SD to eMMC socket adapter.

We loaded the same image that is on our custom board onto the eMMC to SD adapter, and were able to boot the Beagle Bone with it.

The boards that have the eMMC code ported into it, can no longer be booted with an uSD card. I changed the system configuration pins back to uSD card boot configuration, and nothing happens. Not even the CCCCC...

Attached is the eMMC schematic, and below are the connections to the CPU.

Let me have a look at the schematic & I will update.

In the mean time, can you share which SDK are you trying to boot on your board?

Best Regards,
Yordan

I changed the resistor configuration to one recommended by the manufacturer and this is what I got.

They have 50k PU listed on the DAT0-7 lines, 50 on RST_N, 10K on CMD, and no PU on CLK

Current log read with attempting to boot from eMMC.

With previous resistor configuration (10K PU on all lines), this is the log read

So "MMC: no card present" versus "Card did not respond to voltage select"

It will still boot from the SD card with this SYS_Configuration

Hi,

The MMC: no card present breaks at getting the card detect signal:
int mmc_start_init(struct mmc *mmc)
{
bool no_card;
int err;
int uhs_en = true;

/* we pretend there's no card when init is NULL */
no_card = mmc_getcd(mmc) == 0;
#ifndef CONFIG_DM_MMC_OPS
no_card = no_card || (mmc->cfg->ops->init == NULL);
#endif
if (no_card) {
mmc->has_init = 0;
#if !defined(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) || defined(CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT)
printf("MMC: no card present\n");
#endif
return -ENOMEDIUM;
}

Can you share the MMC1 pinmux settings?

And the Card did not respond to voltage select message is again at the point where u-boot checks for the presence of an mmc card (or eMMC) in mmc_start_init():
/* If the command timed out, we check for an MMC card */
if (err == -ETIMEDOUT) {
err = mmc_send_op_cond(mmc);

if (err) {
#if !defined(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) || defined(CONFIG_SPL_LIBCOMMON_SUPPORT)
printf("Card did not respond to voltage select!\n");
#endif

Also could you stop at u-boot level, execute printenv & share the outptu?

Best Regards,
Yordan

Here is the MMC1 pinmux setting Kelsey mentioned in his post.

regulator-name = "vmmcsd_fixed";
regulator-min-microvolt = <3300000>;

};

emmc_pins: pinmux_emmc_pins {
pinctrl-single,pins = <

};

&mmc2 {
vmmc-supply = <&vmmcsd_fixed>;
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&emmc_pins>;
bus-width = <4>;

};

I also tried bus-width of 8. The results are the same.

Thanks,

I noticed that boot_prefixes is

boot_prefixes=/ /boot/

The // doesn't look correct.
