+3. Major Changes and Known Issues
---------------------------------------------------------------------
-This text is assuming quartus 16.1, but newer versions will probably work just fine too;
-verified with DE1_SOC_Linux_FB demo project (https://github.com/VCTLabs/DE1_SOC_Linux_FB).
-Updated/working projects should build using either process below.
+ 3.1 Support 'vab' command to perform vendor authentication.
+
+ Command format: vab addr len
+ Authorize 'len' bytes starting at 'addr' via vendor public key
-Note: it *should* work from Quartus 14.0.200 onwards, however, the current vendor demo
-projects must have the IP cores updated as shown below.
+ 3.2 Support SDRAM secure region in U-boot-ATF flow
-Rebuilding your Quartus project
--------------------------------
+ First 1 MiB of SDRAM is configured as secure region, other
+ address spaces are non-secure regions. Only software executing
+ at secure state EL3 (eg: U-boot SPL) and secure masters are
+ allowed access to secure region.
-Choose one of the follwing methods, either command line or GUI.
-Using the command line
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+4. Cyclone V / Arria V generating the handoff header files for U-Boot SPL
+---------------------------------------------------------------------
-First run the embedded command shell, using your path to the Quartus install:
+ Rebuilding your Quartus project
+ -------------------------------
- $ /path/to/intelFPGA/16.1/embedded/embedded_command_shell.sh
+ Choose one of the follwing methods, either command line or GUI.
-Then (if necessary) update the IP cores in the project, generate HDL code, and
-build the project:
+ Using the command line
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- $ cd path/to/project/dir
- $ qsys-generate soc_system.qsys --upgrade-ip-cores
- $ qsys-generate soc_system.qsys --synthesis=[VERILOG|VHDL]
- $ quartus_sh --flow compile <project name>
+ First run the embedded command shell, using your path to the Quartus install:
-Convert the resulting .sof file (SRAM object file) to .rbf file (Raw bit file):
+ $ /path/to/intelFPGA/16.1/embedded/embedded_command_shell.sh
- $ quartus_cpf -c <project_name>.sof soc_system.rbf
+ Then (if necessary) update the IP cores in the project, generate HDL code, and
+ build the project:
+ $ cd path/to/project/dir
+ $ qsys-generate soc_system.qsys --upgrade-ip-cores
+ $ qsys-generate soc_system.qsys --synthesis=[VERILOG|VHDL]
+ $ quartus_sh --flow compile <project name>
-Generate BSP handoff files
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ Convert the resulting .sof file (SRAM object file) to .rbf file (Raw bit file):
-You can run the bsp editor GUI below, or run the following command from the
-project directory:
+ $ quartus_cpf -c <project_name>.sof soc_system.rbf
- $ /path/to/bsb/tools/bsp-create-settings --type spl --bsp-dir build \
- --preloader-settings-dir hps_isw_handoff/soc_system_hps_0/ \
- --settings build/settings.bsp
-You should use the bsp "build" directory above (ie, where the settings.bsp file is)
-in the following u-boot command to update the board headers. Once these headers
-are updated for a given project build, u-boot should be configured for the
-project board (eg, de0-nano-sockit) and then build the normal spl build.
+ Generate BSP handoff files
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Now you can skip the GUI section.
+ You can run the bsp editor GUI below, or run the following command from the
+ project directory:
+ $ /path/to/bsb/tools/bsp-create-settings --type spl --bsp-dir build \
+ --preloader-settings-dir hps_isw_handoff/soc_system_hps_0/ \
+ --settings build/settings.bsp

-Post handoff generation
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ ... this may take some time, have patience ...
-Now that the handoff files are generated, U-Boot can be used to process
-the handoff files generated by the bsp-editor. For this, please use the
-following script from the u-boot source tree:
+ 6. Start the embedded command shell as shown in the previous section
- $ ./arch/arm/mach-socfpga/qts-filter.sh \
- <soc_type> \
- <input_qts_dir> \
- <input_bsp_dir> \
- <output_dir>
+ $ /path/to/bsb/tools/bsp-create-settings --type spl --bsp-dir build \
+ --preloader-settings-dir hps_isw_handoff/soc_system_hps_0/ \
+ --settings build/settings.bsp
-Process QTS-generated files into U-Boot compatible ones.
- soc_type - Type of SoC, either 'cyclone5' or 'arria5'.
- input_qts_dir - Directory with compiled Quartus project
- and containing the Quartus project file (QPF).
- input_bsp_dir - Directory with generated bsp containing
- the settings.bsp file.
- output_dir - Directory to store the U-Boot compatible
- headers.
+ Post handoff generation
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-This will generate (or update) the following 4 files:
+ Now that the handoff files are generated, U-Boot can be used to process
+ the handoff files generated by the bsp-editor. For this, please use the
+ following script from the u-boot source tree:
- iocsr_config.h
- pinmux_config.h
- pll_config.h
- sdram_config.h
+ $ ./arch/arm/mach-socfpga/qts-filter.sh \
+ <soc_type> \
+ <input_qts_dir> \
+ <input_bsp_dir> \
+ <output_dir>
-These files should be copied into "qts" directory in the board directory
-(see output argument of qts-filter.sh command above).
+ Process QTS-generated files into U-Boot compatible ones.
-Here is an example for the DE-0 Nano SoC after the above rebuild process:
+ soc_type - Type of SoC, either 'cyclone5' or 'arria5'.
+ input_qts_dir - Directory with compiled Quartus project
+ and containing the Quartus project file (QPF).
+ input_bsp_dir - Directory with generated bsp containing
+ the settings.bsp file.
+ output_dir - Directory to store the U-Boot compatible
+ headers.

- -rw-r--r-- 1 sarnold sarnold 9022 Mar 21 18:11 sdram_config.h
+ This will generate (or update) the following 4 files:
-Note: file sizes will differ slightly depending on the selected board.
+ iocsr_config.h
+ pinmux_config.h
+ pll_config.h
+ sdram_config.h
-Now your board is ready for full mainline support including U-Boot SPL.
-The Preloader will not be needed any more.
+ These files should be copied into "qts" directory in the board directory
+ (see output argument of qts-filter.sh command above).
+ Here is an example for the DE-0 Nano SoC after the above rebuild process:
+
+ $ ll board/terasic/de0-nano-soc/qts/

+5. Arria10 generating the handoff header files for U-Boot SPL
----------------------------------------------------------
-Arria 10 generating the handoff header files for U-Boot SPL
-----------------------------------------------------------
-A header file for inclusion in a devicetree for Arria10 can be generated
-by the qts-filter-a10.sh script directly from the hps_isw_handoff/hps.xml
-file generated during the FPGA project compilation. The header contains
-all PLL, clock, pinmux, and bridge configurations required.

+ all PLL, clock, pinmux, and bridge configurations required.
+
+ Please look at the socfpga_arria10_socdk_sdmmc-u-boot.dtsi for an example

+
+ hps_xml - hps_isw_handoff/hps.xml from Quartus project
+ output_file - Output filename and location for header file
+
+ The script generates a single header file names <output_file> that should

+
+6. mkimage for Cyclone V, Arria V and Arria 10
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+ The mkimage tool creates an Intel BootROM compatible image of the
+ Cyclone V SoC, Arria V SoC or Arria 10 SoC bootloader. mkimage is invoked
+ automatically in default U-boot building proccess. To create BootROM
+ compatible image manually, user can run example below:
+ ./tools/mkimage -T <type> -d <input file> <output file>
- $ ./arch/arm/mach-socfpga/qts-filter-a10.sh \
- <hps_xml> \
- <output_file>
+ Cyclone V and Arria V:
+ ./tools/mkimage -T socfpgaimage -d spl/u-boot-spl.bin spl/u-boot-spl.sfp
- hps_xml - hps_isw_handoff/hps.xml from Quartus project
- output_file - Output filename and location for header file
+ Arria 10:
+ ./tools/mkimage -T socfpgaimage_v1 -d spl/u-boot-spl.bin spl/u-boot-spl.sfp
-The script generates a single header file names <output_file> that should
-be placed in arch/arm/dts.
+ For more inforation, run "./tools/mkimage --help".
