Memory Organization +======================= + + -The heap is placed below the monitor (U-Boot code). + -Global data is placed below the heap. + -The stack is placed below global data (&grows down). + +3. Examples +============ + +The hello_world example works fine. The default load address +is 0x0100_0000 (the start of SDRAM). + + +4. Programming U-Boot into FLASH with GERMS +============================================ +The current version of the DK-1C20 port with the default +configuration settings occupies about 81 KBytes of flash. +A minimal configuration occupies less than 60 KByte (asmi +and network support disabled). + +To program U-Boot into the DK-1C20 flash using GERMS do the +following: + +1. From the command line, download U-Boot using the nios-run: + + $ nios-run -r u-boot.srec + +This takes about 45 seconds (GERMS is not very speedy here). +After u-boot is downloaded it will be executed. You should +see the following: + + U-Boot 1.0.0-pre (Oct 4 2003 - 07:39:24) + + CPU: Nios-32 Rev. 3.3 (0x3038) + Reg file size: 256 LO_LIMIT/HI_LIMIT: 2/14 + Board: Altera Nios 1C20 Development Kit + In: serial + Out: serial + Err: serial + ==> + + +2. Quit nios-run and start your terminal application (e.g. start +Hyperterminal or minicom). + +3. Download the u-boot code to RAM. When using Hyperterminal, do the +following: + + a. From the u-boot command prompt start a binary download to SRAM: + + ==> loadb 800000 + + b. Download u-boot.bin using kermit. + +4. From the U-Boot command prompt, erase flash 0x40000 to 0x5ffff: + + ==> erase 1:4-5 + +5. Copy the binary image from SRAM to flash: + + ==> cp.b 800000 40000 10000 + +U-Boot will now automatically start when the board is powered on or +reset using the Standard-32 configuration. To start U-Boot with the +Safe-32 configuration, enter the following GERMS command: + + + g 40000 + +5. Active Serial Memory Interface (ASMI) Support +================================================ +ASMI is fully supported in U-Boot. Please note that ASMI is supported +only on Cyclone devices. Do not expect ASMI to work with Stratix or +APEX devices. + + ************* IMPORTANT ************* + =================================================== + IN ORDER FOR THE NIOS ASMI TO OPERATE PROPERLY, THE + CYCLONE DEVICE MUST BE CONFIGURED USING JTAG OR ASMI. + +There are two techniques you can use to bootstrap the ASMI. The +first is to use the program_epcs utility that is part of Altera's SDK. +But I've found program_epcs to be slow and cumbersome at best. + +An undocumented alternative is to use the Quartus device programing +interface: + + 1. Select "Active Serial" mode. + + 2. Choose the xxx.pof file. For example, for the standard_32 + configuration use the "standard_32.pof" file. + + 3. Attach your ByteBlaster to J28. Make sure you have the + cable attached properly -- the orientation of J28 is + different than J24 (the JTAG header). On J28, pin 1 is on + the bottom row, left-most pin. + + 4. Press and hold the "Power-On Reset" switch (SW10). You will + see the green "Loading" and red "Error" LEDs (LED3 and LED4) + in the on state. + + 5. While holding down the "Power-On Reset" switch, start the + programming sequence. This only takes about 10 seconds. + + 6. After programming is complete, release the "Power-On Reset" + switch. The Cyclone device should now load its configuration + from the EPCS4 (U59). The green "User" LED (LED 1) should be + blinking if the device was successfully loaded via ASMI. + + 7. Remove the ByteBlaster cable. The cable must be removed to + allow the Nios ASMI access to the EPCS4 device. + +After you have successfully programmed a configuration into the +EPCS4, the ASMI will be used to load the Cyclone configuration +unless the "Force Safe" switch (SW9) is pressed. + +NOTE: To maximize the amount of space available for program use, +you can enable configuration compression in Quartus. With compression +enabled, the size of the standard_32 configuration data is +approximately 192 KBytes. + +To use the U-Boot ASMI commands, try typing "help asmi" at the +command prompt. The command "asmi info" will show the current +status of the ASMI. |
