uBoot 2016 upgrade on NSA325—but no uEnv.txt file created

Postby wpault » Thu Dec 10, 2020 12:24 am

I attempted to updated my very old 2014 uBoot to the latest 2016 version so that I could eventually upgrade my kernel beyond that v. 4.4.x .

pacman -S nsa325-uboot reported a "Warning: Bad CRC, using default environment"

However, the flash appeard to work, and via the serial interface, uboot is reporting the right version and the environment variables have been updated, e.g., for boot to look for /boot/uEnv.txt

However, my filesystem has no such file so can't boot.

As I'd rather not have to reinstall and wipe everything from a 3TB hard disk and then restore afterwards, could anyone please tell me either:

1. The contents of the /boot/uEnv.txt file that will work for my system

Or.

2. The right uboot commands so that I can boot the system, as previously, and then what commands to run to tell the system to generate a uEnv.txt file

Thanks for your help

It looks like you have everything in place. uBoot is looking on the first partition of every usb and sata device connected, and it can't find zImage or uImage under /boot/. Check to make sure you have GUID and not MBR (or hybrid) partition table, that /boot is in fact on first partition, and that partition is ext4 (preferably) or ext3/2.

uEnv.txt doesn't exist by default and it's only used to override (or add) certain variables without actually touching the environment which is stored in device's nand.

Ah, thanks

I think that explains my problem. From memory (I set this up many years ago), I think I am using a hybrid MBR partitioning scheme

What also may be the issue, is back when arch arm was first set up on the nsa325 with the installed bootloader, is that /boot and root were separate partitions. /boot was ext2 formatted, so uboot could read it whilst root was ext4 that gave journalling and the like.

This means that when looking in the first (/boot) partition, all the files are in the top directory. So the bootdir is / ...

If so simple way to solve in short term is to pull the hdd, and make a subdirectory in /boot of /boot/boot - then move everything into that.

What I did though, was instead was merge the boot and root partitions (by copying off all files, and recreating the filesystems as ext4, and then copying everything back - did this on my desktop.) This means the first partition is root and has the directory /boot that contains all boot files.

Oh yes, if you look carefully at your uboot env variables, you see that spaces have been inserted everywhere, so it is certainly corrupt. If this is bad blocks, not sure there is much we can do. Sometimes the flash can't cope with the speed of writing, then slowing down the speed of the flash can help. That said though if thats the case, you usually can't write anything, so that you could write something - suggests it is actually bad blocks.

If you check your boot message, you should be able to see where all bad blocks are, if all are in the uboot env variable location, you could recompile uboot with a different address for the variables.

Oh yes if you want to try downclocking the flash, way to do it is in /boot/uEnv.txt to add a line like:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'loadfdt=echo loading ${fdtdir}/${fdtfile} ...; load ${devtype} ${bootpart} ${fdtaddr} ${fdtdir}/${fdtfile}; fdt addr ${fdtaddr}; fdt set /mbus@f1000000/nand@12f chip-delay <45>')

Thanks, for your help. I've now checked the partition table & its a hyrid MBR + GPT:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo gdisk -l /dev/sdc
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.5

Partition table scan:
MBR: hybrid
BSD: not present
APM: not present
GPT: present

Found valid GPT with hybrid MBR; using GPT.
Disk /dev/sdc: 5860533168 sectors, 2.7 TiB
Model: 106X
Sector size (logical/physical): 512/4096 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 3D5EE380-A1E6-44F2-AEC6-B68E5E300C4B
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
Main partition table begins at sector 2 and ends at sector 33
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 5860533134
Partitions will be aligned on 8-sector boundaries
Total free space is 29 sectors (14.5 KiB)

Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name
1 63 48194 23.5 MiB 8300 Linux filesystem
2 48195 107003903 51.0 GiB 8300 Linux filesystem
3 107003904 5860533134 2.7 TiB 8300 Linux filesystem
')

With separate /boot and / partitions:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sdc
├─sdc1
│ ext2 boot 7d008afa-237c-440b-9c4e-5c385f904f71
├─sdc2
│ ext4 rootfs
│ 7cb7b9d5-30ca-495f-adce-7ddb6b1665ff
└─sdc3
ext4 fdda00f1-f0cf-41a2-b3f8-d8ff8e4d0d43
')

PS. I'm checking the disk out on an ubuntu system where the drive is /dev/sdc, and which I think is reading the GPT

Yip, copying the four files from /boot into /boot/boot enables the system to boot up a little before bailing out trying to mount the root partition:

Re: uBoot 2016 upgrade on NSA325—but no uEnv.txt file create

Postby wpault » Thu Dec 10, 2020 2:03 pm

Thanks, summers. :D

It seems to think that /dev/sda1, the boot partition, should be the root partition and failing to identify that the root partition is actually /dev/sda2. I think I will have to merge the two partitions together as per your last post

df:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
dev 250496 0 250496 0% /dev
run 254656 4 254652 0% /run
/dev/sda1 23302 13286 8813 60% /new_root
[rootfs ]# ls /new_root
boot lost+found
[rootfs ]# ls /new_root/boot
initramfs-linux.img uboot-nsa325.env
uImage uboot-nsa325.kwb
')

Re: uBoot 2016 upgrade on NSA325—but no uEnv.txt file create

Postby summers » Thu Dec 10, 2020 2:21 pm

Use:$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sudo blkid') to get the PARTUUID of the root partition, then try adding the uEnv.txt file something like: $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'root=PARTUUID=94a2dc27-01') - but change it to your PARTUUID.

And whats interesting: $this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[ 8.616356] Scanning device for bad blocks
[ 8.625797] Bad eraseblock 100 at 0x000000c80000
[ 8.635686] Bad eraseblock 200 at 0x000001900000') is that it didn't find many bad blocks. So maybe try writing the env variables again, but think of trying a slower chip delay ...

... but you'll have to update to using the device tree first ...
