TerraMaster F2-210 code

This repo contains various bits of code related to the TerraMaster F2-210.

!!!!! Development has stalled !!!!!

Compilation

Assuming cross-compile installed.

export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
ARCH=arm64 make distclean
ARCH=arm64 make realtek_defconfig
ARCH=arm64 make -j 8

Testing

For testing purposes, a kernel image can be loaded by:

mkimage -A arm64 -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0x04000000 -e 0x04000000 -n "Test kernel" -d <kernel dir>/arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz uImage.krnl

Load Kernel:
loady 0x08000000 (kernel uImage)
loady 0x02100000 (fdt dtb)
setenv bootargs 'earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x98007800 console=ttyS0,115200 loglevel=7 debug clk_ignore_unused pd_ignore_unused'
bootm 0x08000000 - 0x02100000

Debian install

Installing Debian. From the ARM64 installer ISO, get 'initrd.gz' from '/install.a64/'.

mkimage -A arm64 -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0x06000000 -e 0x06000000 -n "5.4 kernel" -d Image.gz uImage.F2-210.kernel
mkimage -A arm64 -O linux -T ramdisk -C none -a 0x2200000 -n "Debian Installer" -d initrd.gz uImage.F2-210.di-initrd

Load Kernel/InitRD:
loady 0x08000000 (kernel uImage)
loady 0x18000000 (initrd uImage)
loady 0x02100000 (fdt dtb)
setenv initrd_high 0xffffffffffffffff
setenv bootargs 'earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x98007800 console=ttyS0,115200 loglevel=7 debug clk_ignore_unused pd_ignore_unused'
bootm 0x08000000 0x18000000 0x02100000

Add 'DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text' to the bootargs, to get a simpler interface (if you've only got a basic terminal that doesn't support ncurses).

Disk boot:

loady 0x08000000 (kernel) loady 0x02100000 (fdt) setenv bootargs 'earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x98007800 console=ttyS0,115200 clk_ignore_unused pd_ignore_unused root=/dev/sda2 ro' bootm 0x08000000 - 0x02100000

Existing drivers

Drivers already exist for:

Should probably replace Realtek's, with main line drivers.

Debugging

Code stub to write an 'H' to the serial port (good for debugging early stage kernel).

Writing character to UART

    mov     x23, #'H'
#   mov     x24, #0x98007800
    ldr     x24, =(0x98007800)
    strb    w23, [x24]
