Hi Hyungwon,
> This patch adds documentation for Odroid-XU3. This documentation is
> based on that of Odroid (doc/README-odroid) made by Przemyslaw
> Marczak. The documentation includes basic information about boot
> media layout, environment, partition layout, and the instruction to
> burn the u-boot image to boot media.

> + U-boot for Odroid XU3
> +========================
> +
> +1. Summary
> +==========
> +This is a quick instruction for setup Odroid boards based on
> Exynos5422. +Exynos5422 is almost same with Exynos5800 which is a
almost the same
> variant of Exynos5422 for +Chromebook.
> +
> +Board config: odroid-xu3_config
> +
> +2. Supported devices
> +====================
> +This U-BOOT config can be used on the board:
> +- Odroid XU3
> +with CPU Exynos 5422 and 2GB of RAM
> +
> +3. Boot sequence
> +================
> +iROM->BL1->(BL2 + TrustZone)->U-BOOT
> +
> +To boot up, this version of U-BOOT needs BL1, BL2, and TrustZone
> binary. +It can be downloaded from:
> +https://github.com/hardkernel/u-boot/tree/odroidxu3-v2012.07/sd_fuse/hardkernel
> +
> +4. Boot media layout
> +====================
> +The table below shows SD/eMMC cards layout for U-boot.
> +The block offset is starting from 0 and the block size is 512B.
> + -------------------------------------
> +| Binary | Block offset| part type |
> +| name | SD | eMMC |(eMMC only)|
> + -------------------------------------
> +| Bl1 | 1 | 0 | 1 (boot) |
> +| Bl2 | 31 | 30 | 1 (boot) |
> +| U-boot | 63 | 62 | 1 (boot) |
> +| Tzsw | 2111 | 2110 | 1 (boot) |
> +| Uboot Env | 2500 | 2500 | 0 (user) |
> + -------------------------------------
> +
> +5. Prepare the SD boot card - with SD card reader
> +=================================================
> +To prepare bootable media you need boot binaries provided by
> hardkernel. +The files from the link in point 3.
> +- bl1.bin.hardkernel
> +- bl2.bin.hardkernel
> +- tzsw.bin.hardkernel
> +- u-boot.bin.hardkernel
> +
> +This is all you need to boot this board. You can write the binaries
> to SD card +just by executiog sd_fusing.sh. You cannot use this
^^^^^^^^^ executing
> script to write binaries to +eMMC card.It is valid only for SD card.
> +
> +*note
> +You cannot access the eMMC protected part (the first 8MB roughly)
> using an +ordinary eMMC reader.
> +
> +*note:
> +If you build u-boot by yourself, you will find u-boot.bin and
> u-boot-dtb.bin +as the build result. You have to use u-boot-dtb.bin
> instead of u-boot.bin. +
> +quick steps for Linux:
> +- Download all files from the link at point 3.
> +- put any SD card into the SD reader
> +- check the device with "dmesg"
> +- run ./sd_fusing.sh /dev/sdX - where X is SD card device (but not a
> partition) +Check if Hardkernel U-boot is booting, and next do the
> same with your U-boot. +
> +6. Prepare the eMMC boot card
> + with a eMMC card reader (boot from eMMC card slot)
> +=====================================================
> +To boot the device from the eMMC slot you should use a special card
> reader +which supports eMMC partition switch. All of the boot
> binaries are stored +on the eMMC boot partition which is normally
> hidden. +
> +The "sd_fusing.sh" script can be used after updating offsets of
> binaries +according to the table from point 4. Be sure that you are
> working on the right +eMMC partition - its size is usually very
> small, about 1-4 MiB. +
> +7. Prepare the eMMC boot card
> + with a SD card reader (boot from SD card slot)
> +=================================================
> +If you have an eMMC->microSD adapter you can prepare the card as in
> point 5. +But then the device can boot only from the SD card slot.
> +
> +8. Prepare the boot media using Hardkernel U-boot
> +=================================================
> +You can update the U-boot to the custom one if you have an working
^^^ a
> bootloader +delivered with the board on a eMMC/SD card. Then follow
^^^ the
> the steps: +- install the android fastboot tool
> +- connect a micro usb cable to the board
> +- on the U-boot prompt, run command: fastboot (as a root)
> +- on the host, run command: "fastboot flash bootloader
> u-boot-dtb.bin" +- the custom U-boot should start after the board
> resets. +
> +9. Partition layout
> +====================
> +Default U-boot environment is setup for fixed partition layout.
> +
> +Partition table: MSDOS. Disk layout and files as listed in the table
> below.
> + ----- ------ ------ ------ --------
> --------------------------------- +| Num | Name | FS | Size |
> Offset | Reguired files | +| | | Type |
> MiB | MiB | |
> + ----- ------ ------ ------ --------
> --------------------------------- +| 1 | BOOT | fat | 100 |
> 2 | kernel, fdt** | +| 2 | ROOT | ext4 | -
> | | any Linux system |
> + ----- ------ ------ ------ --------
> --------------------------------- +
> +**note:
> +Supported fdt files are:
> +- exynos5422-odroidxu3.dtb
> +
> +Supported kernel files are:
> +- Image.itb
> +- zImage
> +- uImage
> +
> +10. The environment and booting the kernel
> +==========================================
> +There are three macros defined in config for various boot options:
> +Two for both, kernel with device tree support and also without it:
> +- boot_uimg - load uImage
> +- boot_zimg - load zImage
> +If proper fdt file exists then it will be automatically loaded,
> +so for old kernel types, please remove fdt file from boot partition.
> +
> +The third boot option for multi image support (more info:
> doc/uImage.FIT/) +- boot_fit - for binary file: "Image.itb"
> +
> +Default boot command: "autoboot"
> +And the boot sequence is:
> +- boot_fit - if "Image.itb" exists
> +- boot_zimg - if "zImage" exists
> +- boot_uimg - if "uImage" exists
Please correct those spelling errors at next patch version (I hope
final).
I've managed to cross compile u-boot-dtb.bin for XU3 (according to
guideline from a cover letter.
I can confirm that it boots up till u-boot prompt, so
