ROM-able zImage boot from eSD
|
||
|
-----------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
An ROM-able zImage compiled with ZBOOT_ROM_SDHI may be written to eSD and
|
||
|
SuperH Mobile ARM will to boot directly from the SDHI hardware block.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is achieved by the mask ROM loading the first portion of the image into
|
||
|
MERAM and then jumping to it. This portion contains loader code which
|
||
|
copies the entire image to SDRAM and jumps to it. From there the zImage
|
||
|
boot code proceeds as normal, uncompressing the image into its final
|
||
|
location and then jumping to it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This code has been tested on an mackerel board using the developer 1A eSD
|
||
|
boot mode which is configured using the following jumper settings.

The eSD card needs to be present in SDHI slot 1 (CN7).
|
||
|
As such S1 and S33 also need to be configured as per
|
||
|
the notes in arch/arm/mach-shmobile/board-mackerel.c.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A partial zImage must be written to physical partition #1 (boot)
|
||
|
of the eSD at sector 0 in vrl4 format. A utility vrl4 is supplied to
|
||
|
accomplish this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
e.g.
|
||
|
vrl4 < zImage | dd of=/dev/sdX bs=512 count=17
|
||
|
|
||
|
A full copy of _the same_ zImage should be written to physical partition #1
|
||
|
(boot) of the eSD at sector 0. This should _not_ be in vrl4 format.
|
||
|
|
||
|
vrl4 < zImage | dd of=/dev/sdX bs=512
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: The commands above assume that the physical partition has been
|
||
|
switched. No such facility currently exists in the Linux Kernel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Physical partitions are described in the eSD specification. At the time of
|
||
|
writing they are not the same as partitions that are typically configured
|
||
|
using fdisk and visible through /proc/partitions
