    Instruction of using H3SK with the Kingfisher board located here http://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Kingfisher

    Quick Start How To

    This sections describes steps that are necessary to run a "Hello, World!" application using Yocto build. Both X11 and Wayland are supported.

    Build Yocto image

    Refer to Yocto for steps necessary for making a Yocto image.

    Connect 5 V power supply to the board

    Use 5 V power supply with a 5.5 mm barrel plug. The power supply should be able to provide 4(Min) ~ 8(Max)Amps.

    Note

    • The recommended value is 8 Amps. But, user can use 4 Amps. and 6 Amps. (depends on the use case).

    Connect to serial console

    Use a microUSB cable to connect the PC to R-Car Starter Kit Premier (H3ULCB) board. CN12 ("CPLD/DEBUG") must be used on Starter Kit side. It is routed to SCIF2 in the R-Car H3 via a FT232 interface converter chip.

    On Linux, FT232 driver is included with kernel versions >=2.6.12. Windows driver and sources can be found on FTDI Chip website.

    Serial settings are 115200 8N1. Any standard terminal emulator program can be used.

    On Linux:

    picocom

    sudo picocom -b 115200 DEVICE
    

    replace DEVICE with the proper tty device name, for example /dev/ttyUSB0. Running dmesg | tail can help locating proper device. After the successful connection, picocom should display:

    picocom v1.7
    port is  : /dev/ttyUSB0 flowcontrol  : none baudrate is  : 115200 parity is  : none databits are  : 8 escape is  : C-a local echo is  : no noinit is  : no noreset is  : no nolock is  : no send_cmd is  : sz -vv receive_cmd is : rz -vv imap is  : omap is  : emap is  : crcrlf,delbs,
    Terminal ready

    Use Ctrl+A, Ctrl+Q to exit picocom.

    minicom

    sudo minicom -b 115200 -D DEVICE
    

    replace DEVICE with the proper tty device name, for example /dev/ttyUSB0. Running dmesg | tail can help locating proper device. After the successful connection, minicom should display:

    Welcome to minicom 2.6.2
    OPTIONS: I18n Compiled on Aug 7 2013, 13:32:48. Port /dev/ttyUSB0
    Press CTRL-A Z for help on special keys

    Use Ctrl+A, Q to exit minicom.

    Power on the board and go to U-Boot prompt

    Short-press SW8 "Power" to switch the board on. Then you should see the following output in the terminal:

    Tips

    Flashing firmware by using CPLD and Flash Writer

    By using CPLD and Flash Writer, it is enabled to flash IPLs(firmware) without changing any switch(SW1/SW6) on R-Car Gen3 Starter Kit.
    There are two steps to prepare to write IPLs.
    First, reboot R-Car Gen3 Starter Kit in "SCIF Download Mode" via CPLD.
    Then, send Flash Writer binary to the board.
    After launching Flash Writer, it is possible to write IPLs by using xls2 command.

    • Initial SW1/6 status
      • SW1: ON
      • SW6[all]: ON
    How to reboot in "SCIF Download Mode" via CPLD

    There are two ways to reboot in "SCIF Download Mode" via CPLD.
    It is enough to execute one of the following.

    1. Using U-boot
      => cpld write 0x00 0x802181fe 
      => cpld write 0x80 0x01
      
    2. Using cpld-control
      1. Build cpld-control for Host PC
        $ sudo apt install libftdi-dev
        $ make
        
      2. execute following script.
        #!/bin/bash
        DEV_NAME="/dev/ttyUSB0"
        USB_NAME=$( dmesg | grep "attached to ${DEV_NAME##*/}" | tail -1 | grep -oP "(?<=usb )[^:]+" )
        SERIAL_NAME=$( dmesg | grep -oP "(?<=usb $USB_NAME: SerialNumber: ).*" | tail -1 )
        USB_NAME+=":"$( dmesg | grep -oP "(?<=ftdi_sio $USB_NAME:)[^:]+" | tail -1 )
        
        if [[ "$(id -u)" != "0" ]]; then
            echo Please run as root!
            exit 1
        fi
        
        # enter SCIF Download Mode
        stty -F $DEV_NAME 115200
        ./cpld-control -w $SERIAL_NAME 0x00 0x802181FE # For aarch32 flash writer 
        # ./cpld-control -w $SERIAL_NAME 0x00 0x8021813E # For aarch64 flash writer
        ./cpld-control -w $SERIAL_NAME 0x80 0x01
        echo "$USB_NAME" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/ftdi_sio/bind
        
        exit
        
        Note: Even if reboot in "SCIF Download mode" is succeeded, there is no output on terminal(Ex. minicom).
        Note: for Windows user, python-cpld-control may be used instead of cpld-control.
    How to boot Flash Writer
    1. Build Flash Writer
      $ make AArch=32 clean
      $ CROSS_COMPILE=~/gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_arm-eabi/bin/arm-eabi- make AArch=32 BOARD=ULCB
      
      Note: build option "BOARD=ULCB" and "AArch=32" are required.
      Note: Specific cross compiler is also required(https://github.com/renesas-rcar/flash_writer/blob/rcar_gen3/docs/application-note.md#41-prepare-the-compiler).
    2. Send Flash Writer to the board
      ex) Using minicom
      Type "ctrl+A S" and select upload method "ascii", then choose file for uploading "AArch32_Flash_writer_SCIF_DUMMY_CERT_E6300400_ULCB.mot", after upload finished press any key.
      Then, message like below is shown in terminal
      > Flash writer for R-Car H3/M3/M3N Series Vx.xx <Date>
      
    How to flash IPLs

    Please refer to the following pages:

    After flashing IPLs , please reboot the board by SW8 to reset CPLD register.

    Test procedures

    Known Issues

  • Some H3 v2.0 SK(RTP0RC77951SKBX010SA00) have been confirmed to freeze the system (Ex. Yocto v2.23.1, v3.4.0, v3.6.0 and v3.7.0).
    If it stops please update to Yocto v3.9.0 or later.
  • The following H3 Starter Kit boards have PCIe 1ch disabled.
    Serial Number: 3001-3300
    Serial Number: 20201-20400
    

    [Note] Please check the Serial Number carefully on your board.

    How to enable:

    • If you don't use PCIe 1ch, ignore this "Known Issue".
    • PCIe 1ch is connected to ComEx(CN1) of H3 Starter Kit.
    1. Connect WinPC and H3 Starter Kit board(CN12) with a USB cable
    2. [H3 SK] Power on
    3. [WinPC] Run the exe(*) file
    4. [WinPC] Select "OK"
    5. [WinPC] If you succeed, you can confirm the "CPLD configured successfully (New version:2019/04/08)".
    6. (*) File:H3 StarterKit CPLD Update 20190408.zip

      <TIPS> If you fail, try another winPC or try USB HUB(WinPC -- USB HUB -- USB Cable -- H3 SK(CN12)).

    Limitation

      Yocto v3.4 or later don't support H3 v1.1 Starter Kit (RTP0RC7795SKBX0010SA00).
      Please use the H3 v2.0 or later.
