AM6548: uboot got Read DQS Gate training failed

Part Number: AM6548
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS62360

Hi Ti,

We are trying to bringup our EVM board with ISSI 512MB DDR4.

However, we met "Read DQS Gate training failed" and uboot boot failed.

Log is as below:

SYSFW ABI: 3.1 (firmware rev 0x0014 '20.8.5--v2020.08b (Terrific Lla')
Reading on-board EEPROM at 0x50 failed 1
tps62360_regulator_set_value: 1090000
i2c_write: error waiting for data ACK (status=0x116)
Current ddr identify pin value: 0
read_dqs_training:ERROR: Read DQS Gate training failed
DRAM init failed: -22

resetting ...

Could you provide any hint how to solve this issue?

Thanks.

  • Eric,

    Is this your own PCB design or a TI EVM?

    Did you modify the configuration using this tool:

    AM65x/DRA80xM EMIF Tools (Rev. B)

    Thanks,

    Kyle

  • Hi 

    We use our EVM board to test. After we modify parameter of EMIF, the error message has been fixed.

    However, we still met some problem.

    There is only 512MB ddr on our evm board, and we got the error message "reserving fdt memory region failed (addr=9e800000 size=1800000)".

    I found the setting in dts file is related to this.

    reserved-memory {
    #address-cells = <2>;
    #size-cells = <2>;
    ranges;
    secure_ddr: secure_ddr@9e800000 {
    reg = <0 0x9e800000 0 0x01800000>; /* for OP-TEE */
    alignment = <0x1000>;
    no-map;
    };
    };

    I'm not sure if this is necessary.

    Could you let us know if this need to be modified?

    The log is as below.

  • Hi ,

    I tried the same setting 512MB ddr on Ti AM654 SR1.0 EVM board, and also get the error message below:

    ERROR: reserving fdt memory region failed (addr=9e800000 size=1800000)

    I didn't modify dts files and only modify evm.c to set the ram_size as 0x200000000.

    int dram_init(void)
    {
    #ifdef CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT
    gd->ram_size = 0x20000000;//ERIC*
    #else
    gd->ram_size = 0x80000000;
    #endif

    return 0;
    }

    int dram_init_banksize(void)
    {
    /* Bank 0 declares the memory available in the DDR low region */
    gd->bd->bi_dram[0].start = CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE;
    gd->bd->bi_dram[0].size = 0x20000000;
    gd->ram_size = 0x20000000;

    #if 0//def CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT
    /* Bank 1 declares the memory available in the DDR high region */
    gd->bd->bi_dram[1].start = CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE1;
    gd->bd->bi_dram[1].size = 0x80000000;
    gd->ram_size = 0x100000000;
    #endif

    return 0;
    }

    Could you help to check this?

    Thanks.

  • Hello

    Sorry for the delay, I have not been able to reproduce this.  Are you still facing the issue or has this been resolved on your side?

    Thanks,

    Kyle

  • Hi ,

    Yes, we have solved this.

    Thanks.
