tftp time outs

[Matteo Guglielmi]

Hi Harm,


thanks for the suggestion.


I have this set in my .config file

for the compilation of u-boot:


CONFIG_TFTP_BLOCKSIZE=1468

CONFIG_TFTP_WINDOWSIZE=1

I'm also using a custom boot.cmd
file... should I instead just put
your vars in it like this:

tftpblocksize=512
tftptimeout=10000

or like this:

setenv tftpblocksize 512
setenv tftptimeout 10000

?

I'm still new to u-boot even though
I could make it do exactly what I
needed... extremely useful to boot
my cluster of raspberry pis 4 b with
individual kernel options each.

PS:

Any good book around on u-boot?

Good doc seems so difficult to get.


Thank you!

Hi Matteo,

Which version of U-Boot are you using?

Try setting the following environment variables:

tftpblocksize=512
tftptimeout=10000

Dear All,


I've noticed that when u-boot is downloading

files from a tftp server (e.g. vmlinuz, initrd

etc.) it starts to time out quite heavily

"##T #T #T..." if I simply ping the NIC of

the raspberry 4b on which it's running.


Thanks for any comment or suggestion on this

behavior.
