AM3358: No SD card present

Jack Knight

Part Number: AM3358

I have a custom board based upon the BeagleBone Black. I am using TI-SDK-6.03.

# use SD created using create-sdcard.sh.

When I boot using ti image and abort autostart, I can change to mmc dev 0 OK.

#start with the am335x_evm_defconfig
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- O=am335x_evm am335x_evm_defconfig
cd am335x_evm
make menuconfig
# i started with am335x_evm_defconfig and made these changes
CONFIG_BOOTDELAY=9
CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=7
CONFIG_SPL_LOG=y
CONFIG_LOG_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_SPL_LOG_CONSOLE=y
# save config
#now do the actual build
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- O=am335x_evm

This is output during boot

I cannot access SD card using u-boot built from am335x_evm_defconfig.

I understand that the SD card first comes up in 1-bit mode and then is changed to 4-bit mode. My best guess is that whatever code that is suppose to toggle 1-4bit mode is not being run.

Is there a u-boot setting that controls access to the SD card at mmc0?

Thank you,

Hi Jack,

are you saying your custom BBB-based board works with the SDK 6.3 SD card image just fine?

But when you try to re-build U-Boot yourself you no longer can access the SD card from the U-Boot promot?
(By the way you can use the 'O= 'make parameter also for 'make menuconfig', don't need to change the folder and back).

Can you try running 'mmc info' both after 'mmc dev 0' and 'mmc dev 1'?

Fundamentally your U-Boot build seems to be able to access the SD card, otherwise SPL would not have been able to load U-Boot. But the difference is, SPL uses platform data to setup MMC, and U-Boot proper uses device tree data. Could be an issue on that front.

Regards, Andreas

Andreas,

My custom board (referred to as ZCPU) has an Octavo systems OSD3358 SIP chip. The chip has a built-in AM3358 processor. I tried three different u-boot on two different boards. A section at the bottom of this message contains results to mmc dev 0, mmc dev 1, mmc list and mmc info.

4GB SD card created with SDK6.03 create-sdcard.sh (reffered to as card 1)
(note: this creates two partitions - BOOT and ROOTFS)
BBB (BeagleBone Black rev-C)
see below: 'BBB boot SD card SDK603 create-sdcard'
does not boot to linux login
SD - 4-bit, name SD16G
eMMC - 8-bit , name M6270
ZCPU
se below: 'ZCPU boot SD card SDK603 create-sdcard'
does not boot to linux login
SD - (blank responses)
eMMC - 4-bit, name 004GA

4GB SD card (referred to as card 1a)
started with created with SDK6.03 create-sdcard.sh (note: this creates two partitions - BOOT and ROOTFS)
rebuilt uboot with increased logging and boot delay = 9
then MLO and uboot.img copied to BOOT. I actually used the above card and just copied MLO, uboot.img onto it.
BBB
below: 'BBB boot SD with re-built u-boot'
boots to Arago Project 2019.11 linux login
SD - 4-bit, name SD16G
eMMC - 8-bit , name M6270
ZCPU
below: 'ZCPU boot SD with re-built u-boot'
does not boot to linux login
SD - 'no card present'
eMMC - 4-bit, name 004GA

16GB SD card created from 'AM3358 Debian 10.3 2020-04-06 4GB SD IoT' image (referred to as card 4)
(note: this image creates one partition - ROOTFS)
BBB
below: 'BBB boot SD card 4 BB103 image'
boots to Debian linux login
SD - 4-bit, name SDU1
eMMC - 4-bit , name M6270
ZCPU
below: 'ZCPU boot SD card 4 BB103 image'
boots to Debian linux login
SD - 4-bit
eMMC - 4-bit, name 004GA

Does SPL equal MLO?
Does 'u-boot proper' equal uboot.img?
I agree that card 1 and card 1a SPL is working, but u-boot proper cannot access the SD card. You mention the device tree could be the problem. I have not made and changes to the device tree in the ti-SDK because I don't know how to (yet). My ZCPU board was created referencing the Octavo systems OSD335x tutorial. The AM3358 mmc0 (SD) and mmc1 (eMMC) pinout (pinmux) matches the OSD335x tutorial, which matches the Beaglebone Black. I think the board layout of the EEPROM, mmc0 (SD), mmc1 (eMMC) and UART0 (console) are working or the ZCPU wouldn't boot at all.

On a side note, I do have this boardID written to my EEPROM
0000: aa 55 33 ee 41 33 33 35 42 4e 4c 54 ff ff ff ff .U3.A335BNLT....
0010: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ................

I will need to change the device tree because my ZCPU has no video, two NICS and four serial (with RS-232 transceivers) but that is another topic.

My problem is that u-boot proper is not accessing the mmc0 SD card and because of that cannot load any files from the SD card.

Some more info. I have been successful in adding #define DEBUG to the board-support/include/configs/am335x_evm.h and re-build uboot without Ethernet support. When booting, there is a lot of stuff printed to the console, but it never gets to 'abort autoboot'.

I hope this answers some of your questions and I look forward to an suggestions you may have.
Thank you,

Hi Jack,

Your last post was formatted in a way that made it very difficult to read but thanks for the additional details.

I'd like to go back to your initial post. You said the SDK image works as-is on your own board, and you can access mmc0. But when you rebuild U-Boot, you can no longer access mmc0.

Jack Knight said:
#start with the am335x_evm_defconfig
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- O=am335x_evm am335x_evm_defconfig
cd am335x_evm
make menuconfig
# i started with am335x_evm_defconfig and made these changes
CONFIG_BOOTDELAY=9
CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=7
CONFIG_SPL_LOG=y
CONFIG_LOG_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_SPL_LOG_CONSOLE=y
# save config
#now do the actual build
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- O=am335x_evm

Can you try this again, but with the following sequence:

make [...] mrproper
make [...] am335x_evm_defconfig
DO NOT CHANGE THE CONFIG
make [...]
Then copy MLO and u-boot.img to the boot partition of the SD card you used before for the successful boot with the SDK image, effectivly overwriting the SPL and u-boot.img files that are on there.

I don't see any reason why the above steps should not work. The SDK sources and the provided binaries are 100% in sync, so one should be able to re-build.

Also can you try using the cross-toolchain that is part of the SDK, just to be sure. The current release (v6.3) uses ARM Toolchain (gcc) 8.3 2019.03 hard-float, see http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/docs/06_03_00_106/linux/Release_Specific_PLSDK_Release_Notes.html#release-06-03-00

You can also try building U-Boot from the SDK root folder:

$ make u-boot_clean
$ make u-boot

Thanks, Andreas
