Boot mainline kernel on veyron-jaq

Note: work in progress.


ChromiumOS

Setup

Follow the instructions in the Chromium OS Developer Guide, the tl;dr version being:

mkdir ~/s/chromium

cd ~/s/chromium

repo init -u https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/manifest.git --repo-url https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/repo.git

repo sync -j50


Build

cros_sdk # to enter chroot

BOARD=veyron_jaq

./setup_board --board=$BOARD

./build_packages --board=$BOARD

./build_image --board=$BOARD --noenable_rootfs_verification --enable_serial=ttyS2 test

Firmware

Build netboot firmware for veyron to pull kernel image and command line from a tftp share on the network. Do the following inside the chroot:

Note: The following uses a servo to update firmware. I think you can do the flashrom command on the device itself, but that introduces a brick risk.

Kernel

Setup

Pull down a copy of mainline and use multiv7 defconfig (a .config is also attached to this page, but will likely be stale by the time of reading)

mkdir ~/s/kernel

cd ~/s/kernel

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git .

ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- make O=.build_multiv7 multiv7_defconfig

Download the its file attachment to this page and store it in ~/s/kernel/.build_mutliv7

Build & Deploy

Compile your kernel
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- make O=.build_multiv7 -j40

Create a fit image for veyron-jaq that contains the kernel and the device tree
mkimage -D "-I dts -O dtb -p 2048" -f rk3228-veyron-jaq.its arch/arm/boot/vmlinuz

Copy the fit image to your tftp share
scp arch/arm/boot/vmlinuz <tftpserver>:/tftpboot/veyron_jaq
