Board information
-----------------

The SBC produced by Phytec has a SOM based on a i.MX6Q.
The SOM is sold in two versions, with eMMC or with NAND. Support
here is for the SOM with NAND.
The evaluation board "phyBoard-Mira" is thought to be used
together with the SOM.

More information on the board can be found on manufacturer's
website:

Building U-Boot
-------------------------------

$ make pcm058_defconfig
$ make

This generates the artifacts SPL and u-boot.img.
The SOM can boot from NAND or from SD-Card, having the SPI-NOR
as second option.
The dip switch "DIP-1" on the board let choose between
NAND and SD.

DIP-1 set to off:	Boot first from NAND, then try SPI
DIP-1 set to on:	Boot first from SD, then try SPI

The bootloader was tested with DIP-1 set to on. If a SD-card
is present, then the RBL tries to load SPL from the SD Card, if not,
RBL loads from SPI-NOR. The SPL tries then to load from the same
device where SPL was loaded (SD or SPI). Booting from NAND is
not supported.

Flashing U-Boot onto an SD card
-------------------------------

After a successful build, the generated SPL and U-Boot binaries can be copied
to an SD card. Adjust the SD card device as necessary:

$ sudo dd if=u-boot-with-spl.imx of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1

This is equivalent to separately copying the SPL and U-Boot using:

$ sudo dd if=SPL of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=1
$ sudo dd if=u-boot-dtb.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1k seek=197

The default bootscripts expect a kernel fit-image file named "fitImage" in the
first partition and Linux ext4 rootfs in the second partition.

Flashing U-Boot to the SPI Flash, for booting Linux from NAND
-------------------------------------------------------------

The SD card created above can also be used to install the SPL and U-Boot into
the SPI flash. Boot U-Boot from the SD card as above, and stop at the autoboot.

Then, clear the SPI flash:

=> sf probe
=> sf erase 0x0 0x1000000

Load the equivalent of u-boot-with-spl.imx from the raw MMC into memory and
copy to the SPI. The SPL is expected at an offset of 0x400, and its size is
maximum 392*512-byte blocks in size, therefore 0x188 blocks, totaling 0x31000
bytes. Assume U-Boot should fit into 640KiB, therefore 0x500 512-byte blocks,
totalling 0xA0000 bytes. Adding these together:

=> mmc read ${loadaddr} 0x2 0x688
=> sf write ${loadaddr} 0x400 0xD1000

The SPL is located at offset 0x400, and U-Boot at 0x31400 in SPI flash, as to
match the SD Card layout. This would allow, instead of reading from the SD Card
above, with networking and TFTP correctly configured, the equivalent of:

=> tftp u-boot-with-spl.imx
=> sf write ${fileaddr} 0x400 ${filesize}

The default NAND bootscripts expect a single MTD partition named "rootfs",
which in turn contains the UBI volumes "fit" (which contains the kernel fit-
image) and "root" (which contains a ubifs root filesystem).

The "bootm_size" variable in the environment
--------------------------------------------

By default, U-Boot relocates the device tree towards the upper end of the RAM,
which kernels using CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y may not be able to access during early
boot. With the bootm_size variable set to 0x30000000, U-Boot relocates the
device tree to below this address instead.
