zynqmp-arch

Arch Linux ARM for Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ devices.

Installation

Required tools:

Step1: Prepare the Hardware Design

Use Vivado to create the hardware design. After synth, impl, and generating bitstream, export the .xsa file by following the TCL command.

Vivado% write_hw_platform -fixed -include_bit system.xsa

Step2: Build Boot Loaders and Firmwares

  1. Generate First Stage Boot Loader (fsbl) and PMU Firmware (pmufw) sources:
    $ mkdir xsct && cd $_
    $ cp /path/to/system.xsa .
    
    $ xsct -nodisp -interactive <<'EOS'
    hsi open_hw_design system.xsa
    
    hsi create_sw_design fsbl -proc psu_cortexa53_0 -app zynqmp_fsbl
    hsi set_property CONFIG.stdin  psu_uart_1 [hsi get_os]
    hsi set_property CONFIG.stdout psu_uart_1 [hsi get_os]
    hsi generate_app -app zynqmp_fsbl -dir fsbl
    hsi close_sw_design [hsi current_sw_design]
    
    hsi create_sw_design pmufw -proc psu_pmu_0 -app zynqmp_pmufw
    hsi set_property CONFIG.stdin  psu_uart_1 [hsi get_os]
    hsi set_property CONFIG.stdout psu_uart_1 [hsi get_os]
    hsi generate_app -app zynqmp_pmufw -dir pmufw
    hsi close_sw_design [hsi current_sw_design]
    EOS
    
    $ cd ..
    
  2. Patch the pmufw sources (Ultra96/Ultra96-V2):
    $ sed -i 's/^\(CFLAGS :=.*$\)/\1 -DENABLE_MOD_ULTRA96 -DULTRA96_VERSION=2/' xsct/pmufw/Makefile
    $ sed -i 's/^\(#define\s\+PMU_MIO_INPUT_PIN_VAL\).*/\1 (1U)/;
              s/^\(#define\s\+BOARD_SHUTDOWN_PIN_VAL\).*/\1 (1U)/;
              s/^\(#define\s\+BOARD_SHUTDOWN_PIN_STATE_VAL\).*/\1 (1U)/' xsct/pmufw/xpfw_config.h
    
  3. Build fsbl and pmufw:
    $ make -C xsct/fsbl
    $ make -C xsct/pmufw
    
  4. Build Xilinx/arm-trusted-firmware:
    $ mkdir arm-trusted-firmware && cd $_
    $ curl -L https://github.com/Xilinx/arm-trusted-firmware/archive/xilinx-v2022.2.tar.gz | \
        tar xz --strip-components=1 -C .
    $ sed -i 's!\s\(-Wl,\)\?--fatal-warnings\b!!g' Makefile
    
    $ CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- ARCH=aarch64 \
        make -j12 PLAT=zynqmp RESET_TO_BL31=1 ZYNQMP_CONSOLE=cadence1
    
    $ cd ..
    
  5. Build Xilinx/u-boot-xlnx:
    $ mkdir u-boot-xlnx && cd $_
    $ curl -L https://github.com/Xilinx/u-boot-xlnx/archive/xilinx-v2022.2.tar.gz | \
        tar xz --strip-components=1 -C .
    
    $ CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- ARCH=aarch64 make xilinx_zynqmp_virt_defconfig
    $ CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- ARCH=aarch64 \
        DEVICE_TREE="<your-target-device-tree-name>" \
        BL31=$PWD/../arm-trusted-firmware/build/zynqmp/release/bl31.bin \
        make -j12 u-boot.elf
    
    $ cd ..
    
  6. Create BOOT.BIN:
    $ mkdir boot && cd $_
    $ cp ../xsct/fsbl/executable.elf fsbl.elf
    $ cp ../xsct/pmufw/executable.elf pmufw.elf
    $ cp ../xsct/<bitstream_name>.bit bitstream.bit
    $ cp ../arm-trusted-firmware/build/zynqmp/release/bl31/bl31.elf .
    $ cp ../u-boot-xlnx/u-boot.elf .
    
    $ cat > boot.bif <<EOS
    all:
    {
      [destination_cpu=a53-0, bootloader]                       fsbl.elf
      [destination_cpu=pmu]                                     pmufw.elf
      [destination_device=pl]                                   bitstream.bit
      [destination_cpu=a53-0, exception_level=el-3, trustzone]  bl31.elf
      [destination_cpu=a53-0, exception_level=el-2]             u-boot.elf
    }
    EOS
    
    $ bootgen -arch zynqmp -image boot.bif -w -o BOOT.BIN
    
    $ cd ..
    

Step3: Create Bootable SD Card

  1. Partition the SD card:
    1. Start fdisk:
      $ sudo fdisk /dev/sdX
      
    2. Clear out all partitions:
      Command (m for help): o
      
    3. Create the first partition (32 MiB, FAT16, for BOOT.BIN):
      Command (m for help): n
      Partition type
      p   primary (0 primary, 0 extended, 4 free)
      e   extended (container for logical partitions)
      Select (default p): p
      Partition number (1-4, default 1): 1
      First sector (2048-15661055, default 2048):
      Last sector, +/-sectors or +/-size{K,M,G,T,P} (2048-15661055, default 15661055): +32M
      
      Created a new partition 1 of type 'Linux' and of size 32 MiB.
      
      Command (m for help): t
      Selected partition 1
      Hex code or alias (type L to list all): e
      Changed type of partition 'Linux' to 'W95 FAT16 (LBA)'.
      
    4. Create the second partition (remaining space, bootable, for Linux rootfs):
      Command (m for help): n
      Partition type
      p   primary (1 primary, 0 extended, 3 free)
      e   extended (container for logical partitions)
      Select (default p): p
      Partition number (2-4, default 2):
      First sector (67584-15661055, default 67584):
      Last sector, +/-sectors or +/-size{K,M,G,T,P} (67584-15661055, default 15661055):
      
      Created a new partition 2 of type 'Linux' and of size 7.4 GiB.
      
      Command (m for help): a
      Partition number (1,2, default 2):
      
      The bootable flag on partition 2 is enabled now.
      
    5. Write the partition table and exit:
      Command (m for help): w
      The partition table has been altered.
      Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
      Syncing disks.
      
  2. Format partitions:
    $ sudo mkfs.vfat -F 16 /dev/sdX1
    $ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX2
    
  3. Download the latest Arch Linux ARM tarball and extract to the second partiton:
    $ curl -LO http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-aarch64-latest.tar.gz
    $ curl -LO http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-aarch64-latest.tar.gz.md5
    $ md5sum -c ArchLinuxARM-aarch64-latest.tar.gz.md5
    
    $ sudo mount /dev/sdX2 /mnt
    $ sudo bsdtar -xpf ArchLinuxARM-aarch64-latest.tar.gz -C /mnt
    $ sync
    
  4. Chroot into the target system:
    $ sudo arch-chroot /mnt /bin/bash
    
    (chroot)# uname -m
    aarch64
    
  5. Initialize the pacman keyring:
    (chroot)# pacman-key --init
    (chroot)# pacman-key --populate archlinuxarm
    
  6. Add zynqmp-arch package repository:
    (chroot)# cat >> /etc/pacman.conf <<EOS
    
    [zynqmp-arch]
    SigLevel = Never
    Server = https://zynqmp-arch.myon.info/\$arch
    EOS
    
  7. Add/Remove/Update packages:
    • Remove unneeded utilities:
      (chroot)# pacman -Rncs netctl dhcpcd net-tools
      
    • Remove pre-installed kernel:
      (chroot)# pacman -Rnd linux-aarch64
      
    • Update the system:
      (chroot)# pacman -Syu
      
    • Install the kernel (linux-zynqmp):
      (chroot)# pacman -S linux-zynqmp
      
    • Install Ultra96-V2 Wifi/BT driver (wilc3000-ultra96v2) and firmware (wilc-firmware):
      (chroot)# pacman -S wilc3000-ultra96v2 wilc-firmware
      
    • Install wpa_supplicant for connecting Wifi:
      (chroot)# pacman -S wireless_tools wpa_supplicant
      
    • Remove unrequired packages:
      (chroot)# pacman -Rncs $(pacman -Qdtq)
      
  8. Set passwords:
    (chroot)# passwd
    (chroot)# passwd alarm
    
  9. Configure /etc/fstab and exit the chroot environment:
    (chroot)# cat >> /etc/fstab <<EOS
    /dev/mmcblk0p2 /     ext4 defaults 0 1
    EOS
    
    (chroot)# exit
    
  10. Copy boot.scr to /boot:
    $ vim /path/to/zynqmp-arch/boot/boot.cmd    # modify if needed
    $ /path/to/u-boot-xlnx/tools/mkimage -c none -A arm64 -T script -d /path/to/zynqmp-arch/boot/boot.cmd boot.scr
    $ sudo mv boot.scr /mnt/boot/
    $ sudo umount /mnt
    
  11. Copy BOOT.BIN (created in step2) to the first partition:
    $ sudo mount /dev/sdX2 /mnt
    $ sudo cp BOOT.BIN /mnt
    $ sudo umount /mnt
    

Step4: Boot!

Insert the SD card and turn on the power. You will see the following messages via serial console.
