When the boot-from-eMMC HW strapping bit is set, use the 'boot-config'
property to set the boot config register to boot from the first boot
area partition of the eMMC device.

0x48 feels a little bit magic. I poked around a bit and there are some
boot-config macros, but not the ones you need and they're all in an
"internal" header anyway. I guess this is fine for now?

You are right and we should be using these :

hw/sd/sdmmc-internal.h:#define EXT_CSD_PART_CONFIG             179 /* R/W */

This field is R/W and expected to be configured by the guest.

Why the guest (u-boot) doesn't detect partitioning support?

See eMMC v4.5 section 7.4.60 PARTITIONING_SUPPORT [160] and earlier

   For e•MMC 4.5 Devices, Bit 2-0 in PARTITIONING_SUPPORT
   shall be set to 1.

We don't set it so far.

Sorry, I wasn't grepping in the correct branch, we do set it:

      sd->ext_csd[EXT_CSD_PARTITION_SUPPORT] = 0x3;

I'll investigate.

Correct behavior implemented (I hope) here:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20240709152556.52896-16-phi...@linaro.org/

Using it also simplifies this patch, we can squash:

I think we need both "boot-size" and "boot-config" properties to set
the associated registers, BOOT_CONFIG and BOOT_SIZE_MULT. BOOT_CONFIG
defines which devices are enabled for boot (partition 1, 2 or user area)
and BOOT_SIZE_MULT defines the size.

I disagree: it is the guest responsibility to set the BOOT_CONFIG
register (using the SWITCH command). Unlike the BOOT_CONFIG register
which is in the (read-only) Properties Segment,

hmm, in section 8.4 Extended CSD register, table 49 says
BOOT_CONFIG is R/W.

the BOOT_SIZE_MULT
is in the (read-write) Modes segment and its default value is 0x00.

and BOOT_SIZE_MULTI is RO

See the Spec v4.3, chapter 8.4 "Extended CSD register":

       The Extended CSD register defines the card properties
       and selected modes. It is 512 bytes long. The most
       significant 320 bytes are the Properties segment, which
       defines the card capabilities and cannot be modified by
       the host. The lower 192 bytes are the Modes segment,
       which defines the configuration the card is working in.
       These modes can be changed by the host by means of the
       SWITCH command.

yes and how is initial boot done ? You have start from eMMC at some
point.


For example in u-boot BOOT_CONFIG is set by mmc_set_part_conf():

     /*
      * Modify EXT_CSD[179] which is PARTITION_CONFIG (formerly
      * BOOT_CONFIG) based on the passed in values for BOOT_ACK,
      * BOOT_PARTITION_ENABLE and PARTITION_ACCESS.
      *
      * Returns 0 on success.
      */
     int mmc_set_part_conf(struct mmc *mmc, u8 ack,
                           u8 part_num, u8 access)
     {
         int ret;
         u8 part_conf;

         part_conf = EXT_CSD_BOOT_ACK(ack) |
                     EXT_CSD_BOOT_PART_NUM(part_num) |
                     EXT_CSD_PARTITION_ACCESS(access);

         ret = mmc_switch(mmc, EXT_CSD_CMD_SET_NORMAL, EXT_CSD_PART_CONF,
                          part_conf);
         if (!ret)
                 mmc->part_config = part_conf;

         return ret;
     }

OK. It has been 5y since I last looked ! The part above is a u-boot
command which means the board has already booted on some device (flash)
and this command lets you boot from another device (eMMC)

I don't remember how exactly how this works on AST2600. I think the
SoC secure boot controller sets the EXT_CSD config on the eMMC device
and loads boot data in RAM. This is what the model is doing today when
setting the boot config property and loading a ROM.

Anyhow, having two properties is not a big issue. It gives more
flexibility to model the HW implementation of the boot part.


Thanks,

C.
