1.Toolchain

http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Toolchain+Installation

recommended toolchain version: gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz


2.u-boot

Build from source – Bootloader

...

      http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Build+from+source+-+Bootloader

Compile according to the instructions given by the web page

recommended version: u-boot-2018.03-armada-18.09


Update the Bootloader

...

     http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Update+the+Bootloader

...

     This page is about update boot through network,   In addition, you can use the USB Flash drive to update boot as following instructions:

Marvell>> usb reset

Marvell>> bubt flash-image.bin spi usb

Marvell>> reset

Marvell>> env default -a

Marvell>> env save


Make sure that the MACCHIATObin board does not experience power loss during the entire updating process, otherwise it will be bricked due to an unfinished bootloader update.


3.Creating filesystem

Creating Ubuntu filesystem

http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Creating+Ubuntu+filesystem&highlight=file+system

Among one of file systems supported by MACCHIATObin is the Ubuntu file system. you can either build the file system manually or download a prebuilt SD card image.


http://macchiatobin.net/software/

This software page provide a compiled kernel image.  If want to compile kernel on  MACCHIATObin board,  You can use this official image temporarily to start the board.

Boot from removable storage

Please see following link as reference about how to setup Marvell board

http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Boot+from+removable+storage+-+Ubuntu&highlight=removable

Instructions of the page is suit for 17.10, 

U-Boot 18.09:

Using Micro SD card:

Marvell>> setenv image_name boot/Image

Marvell>> setenv fdt_name boot/armada-8040-mcbin.dtb

Marvell>> setenv bootcmd 'mmc dev 1; ext4load mmc 1:1 $kernel_addr_r $image_name;ext4load mmc 1:1 $fdt_addr_r $fdt_name;setenv bootargs $console root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rw rootwait pci=pcie_bus_safe cpuidle.off=1; booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r'

Marvell>>  saveenv

Marvell>>  run bootmmc


Using USB Stick:

Marvell>> setenv image_name boot/Image

Marvell>> setenv fdt_name boot/armada-8040-mcbin.dtb

Marvell>> setenv bootusb 'usb reset; ext4load usb 0:1 $kernel_addr_r $image_name;ext4load usb 0:1 $fdt_addr_r $fdt_name;setenv bootargs $console root=/dev/sda1 rw rootwait pci=pcie_bus_safe cpuidle.off=1;booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r'

Marvell>>  saveenv

Marvell>>  run bootusb

              If U-Boot version is 17.10, you should repleace $kernel_addr_r/$fdt_addr_r  by $kernel_addr/$fdt_addr


4. Compile kernel & application

Compile on MACCHIATObin board

Preparing

The /etc/apt/sources.list file that comes with the rootfs is very bare. Replace it with this:

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial main universe restricted multiverse

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial main universe restricted multiverse


deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-updates main universe restricted multiverse

deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-updates main universe restricted multiverse

Compile kernel

1)      make a new directory

mkdir -p /home/code/kernel/4.14.22


2)      download  kernel source from git

/home/code/kernel/4.14.22# git clone https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/linux-marvell .            

/home/code/kernel/4.14.22# git checkout linux-4.14.22-armada-18.09


3)      Download musdk source

/home/code# mkdir musdk


/home/code/musdk#git clone https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/musdk-marvell .
/home/code/musdk#git checkout musdk-armada-18.09


4)      Patches for the kernel source

/home/code/musdk# cd /home/code/kernel/4.14.22/
