ZCU106: QSPI mode doesnt work

[msh]

Hello, 

I receive new hardware, where I did the initial test by booting it up in QSPI (mode set by switch) . This worked fine. 

Then I made my own .mcs file by adding

This way I add the bootloader 

This way I create the bootloader 

After flashing the .mcs (QSDI mode according to switched ON OFF ON ON)file the program does not work i.e. the fpga is not able to initiate 

The same software if I flash without bootloader in jatag mode (pins configured) i.e first flash fpga file (.bit) and then flash PS software (.elf) then it works fine. Therefore I think there is a problem in bootloader file 

Please let me know if I miss some step for making bootloader file for board ZCU106.

Thank you 

Best regards

Do you see any prints on serial terminal after you try to boot?

I would recommend you to follow the steps in https://www.xilinx.com/support/answers/68656.html to narrow down the issue.

here is what I see in 

Xilinx Zynq MP First StagýXilinx Zynq MP First Stage Boot Loader
Release 2018.1 þXilinx Zynq MP First SüXilinx Zynq MP First Sü

I even tried simple hello world but that also does not work.

Please see the flash log in the attachment.

I have this problem with both hardware (2 ZCu106)

[msh]

When I flash the file from the restore flash tutorial, then it works fine. but still, multiple restarts require to get to green lights. 

So I do not understand where is the problem.

[msh]

Ther is another msg states PMU is disabled hence some function won't work properly?

Will that created problem?

[msh]

I ran the bootloader in debug mode, there I found this error 

XFsbl_SpkVer: XFSBL_ERROR_SPK_SIGNATURE
Failure at boot header authentication

It seems there is a problem in FSBL generated from SDK for zynq ultrascale+ board ZCU106.

Please advice how to resolve it. 

thank you

here is the full log

I also see this error in your log "XFSBL_ERROR_IHT_CHECKSUM".

It appears the image is corrupted in the "image header table".

[msh]

Here is the testing detail 

This is my model (with PCIe), in serial output, it just prints "HelloWorld" (PS side) and runs PCIe connection on PL

1.

a. QSPI flashing test: FAIL 

b. SD card run test: PASS 

Please see the log and .bif in the attachment.

2.

I am not using DDR, hence other tests are not applicable.

3.

Normal QSPI hello world test:  PASS

Please see the log

Looking forward to suggestion.

Hi! Now I work on ZCU106,and I add a DMA/Subsystem for pci express IPCore at PL. But wen I boot form SD card,kernel stop at [ 0.015866] bootconsole [cdns0] disabled.

As you say,your model also have pcie,and work well in SD card mode.Can you gave me a example design with PCIE?I hope it can help me to find out where is wrong，thanks！

[msh · Accepted solution]

process :

1. check jumper for pcie to enable 

2. make loop pcie PL implementation with xdma pcie IP

3. flash it into the flash memory with "qspi_dual_parallel" option or make boot image (fsbl + elf) and place in sd card 

4. run xilinx driver for pcie in ubuntu 14.0

project (.tcl) and boot image in the attachment 

note : there is user ip to control LED (single_endto_diff_0), hence if that user IP is not loaded in the project no need to worrie :) 

how to place pcie:

1. include xdma pcie 

2. run auto setup 

(select maximum width, stream, 1 connection ) 

3. then connect out stream to in stream (loop back)

4. change the pins for pcie in IO planner (as it is not corectly done automatically)

5. assign the input pcie clock in clock planner to 100Mhz.

6. make .bit file 

7. export to sdk 

8. make fsbl

9. make boot image 

10. correct jumper setting in the board 

11. conent the board to pcie slot in pc with ubuntu 14.0 

12. check in the linux (lspci -v), as xilinx pcie 

13. run the xilinx driver 

All the best

tcl

[tom0501]

When I source the tcl file,I get error:

ERROR: [Vivado 12-172] File or Directory 'C:/Users/TOM/AppData/Roaming/Xilinx/Vivado/PCIeLoop.srcs/sources_1/bd/design_1/hdl/design_1_wrapper.vhd' does not exist

Can you tar the whole project？Thanks！

[msh]

sorry , the site is not allowing me to upload as it is too big for it.

try following the steps which I mention before
let me know if boot.bin file which I shared it works for you

[joe306]

Were you able to get things working. I am having the same problem. I am running a Peripheral example to toggle the LEDS. It completes programming the QSPI but when I power down and boot with the QSP boot mode setting it fails to init and get the RED led.
Any advice?

Thank you
