Linux Kernel
TI BSP
Download
~/
git clone https://github.com/RobertCNelson/ti-linux-kernel-dev.git cd ti-linux-kernel-dev/
For TI v4.4.x:
~/ti-linux-kernel-dev
git checkout origin/ti-linux-4.4.y -b ti-linux-4.4.y
Update GCC cross compiler path in system.sh
cp system.sh.sample system.sh
Update CC variable with path with GCC compiler path set above
nano system.sh CC=/home/yantrr/gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.01-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-
Build
~/ti-linux-kernel-dev/
./build_kernel.sh
Update LINUX_GIT variable in system.sh
nano system.sh LINUX_GIT=/home/yantrr/ti-linux-kernel-dev/ignore/linux-src/
Change USB0 Mode :
For VIBE/VIBE2, very first you need to change the USB0 dr_mode from peripheral to host in Beaglebone Black kernel source file KERNEL/arch/arm/boot/dts/am335x-bone-common.dtsi while rebuilding the kernel
&usb0 {
status = "okay";
dr_mode = "host";
};
ZTE and Telit modems driver are already in Beaglebone Black kernel source version 4.4, so no need of any patch for it.
USB Driver configuration for SEW modems:
|
Only needed for SEW modems. |
nano KERNEL/drivers/usb/serial/option.c /* Yantrr Strongrising products */ #define YANTRR_VENDOR_ID 0x21f5 #define YANTRR_PRODUCT_VAYU3GH 0x2012 #define YANTRR_PRODUCT_VAYU3GC 0x2009 #define YANTRR_DONGLE_ID 0x20a6 #define YANTRR_DONGLE_PRODUCT 0x1105
/*Also, add entries in struct usb_device_id option_ids[]*/
{ USB_DEVICE(YANTRR_VENDOR_ID, YANTRR_PRODUCT_VAYU3GH) },
{ USB_DEVICE(YANTRR_VENDOR_ID, YANTRR_PRODUCT_VAYU3GC) },
{ USB_DEVICE(YANTRR_DONGLE_ID, YANTRR_DONGLE_PRODUCT) },
Rebuild Kernel
~/ti-linux-kernel-dev
./tools/rebuild.sh
Check for PPS support under Device Drivers ---> PPS Support
Final output on terminal :

Setup microSD card
We are assuming the DISK=/dev/sdc, Please check the device id of SD-Card with lsblk
export DISK=/dev/sdc
Erase partition table/labels on microSD card:
dd if=/dev/zero of=${DISK} bs=1M
Install Bootloader:
~/
dd if=./u-boot/MLO of=${DISK} count=1 seek=1 bs=128k
dd if=./u-boot/u-boot.img of=${DISK} count=2 seek=1 bs=384k
Create Partition Layout: With util-linux v2.26, sfdisk was rewritten and is now based on libfdisk.
sfdisk --version sfdisk from util-linux 2.27.1
For sfdisk >= 2.26.x
sfdisk ${DISK} <<-__EOF__
4M,,L,*
__EOF__
For sfdisk <= 2.25.x
sfdisk --unit M ${DISK} <<-__EOF__
4,,L,*
__EOF__
Format Partition:
With mkfs.ext4 1.43, we need to make sure metadata_csum and 64bit are disabled.
As U-Boot CAN NOT currently handle reading files with these newer ext4 options and so Debian 8 (armel/armhf) and Ubuntu 16.04 (armhf) fsck tools will operate correctly.
mkfs.ext4 -V mke2fs 1.42.13 (17-May-2015) Using EXT2FS Library version 1.42.13
Install Kernel
Copy compiled kernel files to already bootable SD-card
~/ti-linux-kernel-dev
export kernel_version=4.4.62-ti-r99
cp -v deploy/${kernel_version}.zImage /media/yantrr/rootfs/boot/vmlinuz-${kernel_version}
