Calxeda Highbank/Midway board support
|
||||
=====================================
|
||||
|
||||
The Calxeda ECX-1000 ("Highbank") and ECX-2000 ("Midway") were ARM based
|
||||
servers, providing high-density cluster systems. A single motherboard could
|
||||
host between 12 and 48 nodes, each with their own quad-core ARMv7
|
||||
processor, private DRAM and peripherals, connected through a high-bandwith
|
||||
and low-latency "fabric" network. Multiple motherboards could be connected
|
||||
together, to extend this fabric.
|
||||
|
||||
For the purpose of U-Boot we just care about a single node, this can be
|
||||
used as a single system, just using the fabric to connect to some Ethernet
|
||||
network. Each node boots on its own, either from a local hard disk, or
|
||||
via the network.
|
||||
|
||||
The earlier ECX-1000 nodes ("Highbank") contain four ARM Cortex-A9 cores,
|
||||
a Cortex-M3 system controller, three 10GBit/s MACs and five SATA
|
||||
controllers. The DRAM is limited to 4GB.
|
||||
|
||||
The later ECX-2000 nodes ("Midway") use four Cortex-A15 cores, alongside
|
||||
two Cortex-A7 management cores, and support up to 32GB of DRAM, while
|
||||
keeping the other peripherals.
|
||||
|
||||
For the purpose of U-Boot those two SoCs are very similar, so we offer
|
||||
one build target. The subtle differences are handled at runtime.
|
||||
Calxeda as a company is long defunct, and the remaining systems are
|
||||
considered legacy at this point.
|
||||
|
||||
Bgilding U-Boot
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
There is only one defconfig to cover both systems::
|
||||
|
||||
$ make highbank_defconfig
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
|
||||
This will create ``u-boot.bin``, which could become part of the firmware update
|
||||
package, or could be chainloaded by the existing U-Boot, see below for more
|
||||
details.
|
||||
|
||||
Boot process
|
||||
------------
|
||||
Upon powering up a node (which would be controlled by some BMC style
|
||||
management controller on the motherboard), the system controller ("ECME")
|
||||
would start and do some system initialisation (fabric registration,
|
||||
DRAM init, clock setup). It would load the device tree binary, some secure
|
||||
monitor code (``a9boot``/``a15boot``) and a U-Boot binary from SPI flash
|
||||
into DRAM, then power up the actual application cores (ARM Cortex-A9/A15).
|
||||
They would start executing ``a9boot``/``a15boot``, registering the PSCI SMC
|
||||
handlers, then dropping into U-Boot, but in non-secure state (HYP mode on
|
||||
the A15s).
|
||||
|
||||
U-Boot would act as a mere loader, trying to find some ``boot.scr`` file on
|
||||
the local hard disks, or reverting to PXE boot.
|
||||
|
||||
Updating U-Boot
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
The U-Boot binary is loaded from SPI flash, which is controlled exclusively
|
||||
by the ECME. This can be reached via IPMI using the LANplus transport protocol.
|
||||
Updating the SPI flash content requires vendor specific additions to the
|
||||
IPMI protocol, support for which was never upstreamed to ipmitool or
|
||||
FreeIPMI. Some older repositories for `ipmitool`_, the `pyipmi`_ library and
|
||||
a Python `management script`_ to update the SPI flash can be found on Github.
|
||||
|
||||
A simpler and safer way to get an up-to-date U-Boot running, is chainloading
|
||||
it via the legacy U-Boot::
|
||||
|
||||
$ mkimage -A arm -O u-boot -T standalone -C none -a 0x8000 -e 0x8000 \
|
||||
-n U-Boot -d u-boot.bin u-boot-highbank.img
|
||||
|
||||
Then load this image file, either from hard disk, or via TFTP, from the
|
||||
existing U-Boot, and execute it with bootm::
|
||||
|
||||
=> tftpboot 0x8000 u-boot-highbank.img
|
||||
=> bootm
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
.. _`pyipmi`: https://pypi.org/project/pyipmi/
|
||||
