Hey there folks,
I just have at hands a board from Radxa, called Rock 3-A which has a rockchip
RK3568, and they do provide a version of u-boot but rather old.
As a fun side project, I am trying to port all things to the current master.
I am still at really early stages, got a minimum .config that compiles for that
board and using their provided TPL, I can load my compiled version of u-boot's
SPL.
After doing this, some questions came which I could not find on the docs or
some other good resource for really beginners in all this embedded world.
First, the initial SPL problem is because the DRAM is not configured, and I saw
that there is a driver for that chip that uses dts for its configuration:
drivers/ram/rockchip/sdram_rk3568.c
static const struct udevice_id rk3568_dmc_ids[] = {
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3568-dmc" },
{ }
};
But searching the code, I could not find any dts that configures it that way,
from where should I get this information? In some chips I found this
configuration in .c, and .h files, ideally, where should they go?
Also, about the dts, what is the right way to write them in the sense of, how
do you find out the peripherals and their configuration? Is it from a data
sheet or something like that?
If you can point to any other documentation for beginners on how to port
boards, it will be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Jayson
