U-Boot OS boot sequence
We discribe only about SPI-flash u-boot, for other custom U-boots which can stored at eMMC or SD its will be different
OS booting follow by distro_bootcmd which use boot_targets priority for scanning bootable OS. Step by step scan all available storage's and partitions for os-boot-configuration-extlinux-config
kedge2# printenv boot_targets
boot_targets=usb0 mmc1 mmc0 pxe dhcp fail
OS boot configuration - extlinux config
Basic example:
- extlinux/extlinux.conf
menu background /logo.bmp LABEL Default LINUX /Image INITRD /initrd.img FDTDIR /dtb APPEND ${bootargs} earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0xfeb50000 console=ttyFIQ0 console=tty0 irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=0 root=LABEL=ROOTFS rootflags=data=writeback rw rootfstype=ext4 timeout 10 default Default
OOWOW mode
OOWOW mode can be activated by
- special on board short-cuts
FUNCTION+RESET - under running OS via special MCU-register-for-start-oowow - software way
OOWOW special mode
OOWOW rescue mode
MCU register for start oowow
