-2.3 Final firmware
-------------------
-Final firmware would be in bin/targets/layerscape/<subtarget>/, and
-named as openwrt-layerscape-<subtarget>-<device>-<rootfs>-firmware.bin.
-
-
-3. Program firmware to NOR/QSPI flash
--------------------------------------
-* LS1043ARDB (NOR flash)
+* make menuconfig
+ Target System: "NXP Layerscape"
+ Subtarget: (Select subtarget)
+ Target Profile: (Select device, or "Multiple devices")
+ Target Devices: (Select devices. Available when Target Profile is "Multiple devices")
+ Target Images: (Disable "GZip images" if don't want to unzip manually to use the images.)
- Start up from bank0, and program firmware to bank4 with below commands.
- Switch to bank4 to start up OpenWrt.
+ Note: The first time make menuconfig would create a .config file which
+ would include all dependencies for selected target. After that, make
+ menuconfig still could be used to modify packages. If want to change
+ other target, please remove .config and make menuconfig to select again.
+ Otherwise the packages selected in .config would be a mess.

+3. Program NOR/QSPI flash or SD card
+------------------------------------
+The firmware.bin or sdcard.img is an all-in-one image including all things for
+OpenWrt staring up. (except LS1012AFRWY. Refer to 3.3.)
+If you want to install all things into flash, please use firmware.bin.
+If you want to install all things into SD card, please use sdcard.img.
+
+3.1 Program sdcard.img to SD card
+---------------------------------
+sdcard.img could be programmed to SD card in either u-boot environment
+or linux environment. After programming, configure the board to boot
+from SD card.
+
+* u-boot environment
+
+ => tftp a0000000 <image_name>-sdcard.img
+ => mmc write a0000000 0 a0000
+
+ Note: The default sdcard.img size is 320MB. a0000 is the block number for 320MB.
+ blk_num = filesize / 512.
+
+* linux environment
+ $ dd if=./<image_name>-sdcard.img of=/dev/mmcblkx
+
+ Note: Need to check the SD card device name to replace "mmcblkx".
+
+3.2 Program firmware.bin to flash
+---------------------------------
+* LS1012ARDB (QSPI flash)
Start up from bank1, and program firmware to bank2 with below commands.
Switch to bank2 to start up OpenWrt.
- => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>.bin
+ => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>-firmware.bin
=> i2c mw 0x24 0x7 0xfc;i2c mw 0x24 0x3 0xf5
=> sf probe 0:0
=> sf erase 0 +$filesize
=> sf write a0000000 0 $filesize
=> reset
-* LS1012AFRDM (QSPI flash)
-
- LS1012AFRDM board only has one bank. Start up board, and program firmware
- with below commands. Reset to start up OpenWrt.
+* LS1043ARDB (NOR flash)
+ Start up from bank0, and program firmware to bank4 with below commands.
+ Switch to bank4 to start up OpenWrt.
- => tftp 96000000 <firmware_name>.bin
- => sf probe 0:0
- => sf erase 0 +$filesize
- => sf write 96000000 0 $filesize
- => reset
+ => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>-firmware.bin
+ => protect off all
+ => erase 64000000 +$filesize
+ => cp.b a0000000 64000000 $filesize
+ => cpld reset altbank
* LS1046ARDB (QSPI flash)
-
Start up from bank1, and program firmware to bank2 with below commands.
Switch to bank2 to start up OpenWrt.
- => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>.bin
+ => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>-firmware.bin
=> sf probe 0:1
=> sf erase 0 +$filesize
=> sf write a0000000 0 $filesize
=> cpld reset altbank
* LS1088ARDB (QSPI flash)
-
Start up from bank0, and program firmware to bank1 with below commands.
Switch to bank1 to start up OpenWrt.
- => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>.bin
+ => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>-firmware.bin
=> sf probe 0:1
=> sf erase 0 +$filesize
=> sf write a0000000 0 $filesize
bank1 instead of 'qix altbank'.
=> i2c mw 66 50 20;i2c mw 66 10 20;i2c mw 66 10 21
+* LS2088ARDB (NOR flash)
+ Start up from bank0, and program firmware to bank4 with below commands.
+ Switch to bank4 to start up OpenWrt.
+
+ => tftp a0000000 <firmware_name>-firmware.bin
+ => protect off all
+ => erase 584000000 +$filesize
+ => cp.b a0000000 584000000 $filesize
+ => qix altbank
+
+3.3 Program LS1012AFRWY
+-----------------------
+* LS1012AFRWY (QSPI flash + SD card)
+ LS1012AFRWY only supports 2MB QSPI flash. We have to put u-boot, and
+ some firmwares on QSPI flash, and kernel/dtb/rootfs on SD card.
+ So both firmware.bin and sdcard.img are needed for OpenWrt starting up.
+
+ To program sdcard.img, please use linux command described in 3.1 on a
+ linux machine.
+ To program firmware.bin, start up board from QSPI flash, and program
+ firmware with below commands. Reset to start up OpenWrt. (LS1012AFRWY
+ supports only one bank.)
+
+ => tftp 96000000 <firmware_name>-firmware.bin
+ => sf probe 0:0
+ => sf erase 0 +$filesize
+ => sf write 96000000 0 $filesize
+ => reset
