EDK2 first boot

arielle · February 7, 2024, 1:32pm

Hello folks,

I’ve been playing with the bootloader process on the pioneer board. This morning made the advance that I got edk2 to boot as part of the bootflow. I am not to the point of launching grub, although I will try that soon.

Steps to reproduce:

Clone the bootloader repository

git clone GitHub - sophgo/bootloader-riscv

Use the default environment setup supplied by sophgo

cd bootloader-riscv/scripts
. ./envsetup.sh
export CHIP=mango

We set the chip to be the mango chip. i.e. the sg2042

The debian cross compiler for riscv does not contain support for some of the CPU features (at least in bookworm aarch64), so build the compiler. This takes ages, so I would recommend adding some parallelism by editing the envsetup.sh script at the build_rv_gcc function.

build_rv_gcc

With the compiler built we can start by building the components, firstly zsbl or the zerostage bootloader.

cd $RV_TOP_DIR
git clone https://github.com/sophgo/zsbl.git

I could not get the conf.ini settings to affect dynamically so for this test I have overridden the values in the defaults for the sd card.

Apply the following diff:

diff --git a/plat/sg2042/boot.c b/plat/sg2042/boot.c
index 638f501..8ffb654 100644
--- a/plat/sg2042/boot.c
+++ b/plat/sg2042/boot.c
@@ -140,9 +140,9 @@ BOOT_FILE boot_file[ID_MAX] = {
 static char *img_name_sd[] = {
        "0:riscv64/conf.ini",
        "0:riscv64/fw_dynamic.bin",
-       "0:riscv64/riscv64_Image",
-       "0:riscv64/initrd.img",
-       "0:riscv64/mango.dtb",
+       "0:riscv64/SG2042.fd",
+       NULL,
+       "0:riscv64/mango-milkv-pioneer.dtb",
 };

 static char *img_name_spi[] = {

Finally we build the zsbl.bin file.

build_rv_zsbl

Get the OpenSBI

cd $RV_TOP_DIR
git clone GitHub - sophgo/opensbi: RISC-V Open Source Supervisor Binary Interface

Build the sbi image with

build_rv_sbi

Get the edk repo and build.

cd $RV_TOP_DIR
git clone GitHub - sophgo/sophgo-edk2

Build it with:

build_rv_edk2

Assemble the files into a SD card. I used any rando raspberrypi sd card, because we only need to have a fat filesystem in partition 1.

a. Based on that root (/) copy the file from $RV_TOP_DIR/bootloader-riscv/firmware/fip.bin to the root of that partition.
b. Copy the zsbl in that same folder by $RV_TOP_DIR/install/soc_mango/single_chip/firmware/zsbl.bin
c. make a directory called riscv64
d. copy the EFI to the riscv64 directory from $RV_TOP_DIR/sophgo-edk2/Build/SG2042_EVB/RELEASE_GCC5/FV/SG2042.fd
e. copy the dtbs into the riscv64 directory from the fedora image, or you can make the linux kernel using the build env.

Anyway hopefully if you got this far then you can just place the SD card into the slot and boot the pioneer board and be greeted with a console log similar to the one below.

Enjoy, Arielle

Following up myself, which I know is bad form (sorry). I have successfully got my debian install booting using the following flow:

zsbl → opensbi → uefi/edk2 → grub → linux

Also update-grub2 in debian is able to manage the boot profiles in grub, as it would in any other platform.

There are still many sharp edges, but I will make a blog post and link it here once I have written it up.

So far seems pretty reliable.

Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks for sharing this info. Looking forward to the blog post and any other details you can share about what you’ve discovered about the boot flow process.
