Hummingboard 2 Edge

I compiled u-boot for cubox-hummingboard from ports and added support for SATA in config.
Finally just flashed the firmware to sd card and it gets along well. It is trying to pxeboot.
This is encouraging. I need to throw the jumpers for mSATA to see if it will boot that.

I must start it at a special spot to not overwrite u.boot.imx right?

OK I have mastered this process.

So all the Generic images I tried and fail did so because I did not flash the uboot.imx uboot to disk.
That is what is needed. iMX6 requires u-boot raw mode. Wrote to first 1K of disk.
dd if=u-boot.imx of=/dev/da0 bs=1k oseek=1 conv=sync
Write the FreeBSD Generic Arm image to a SD disk then flash the uboot-imx to SDCard.
Even though it overwrites the first 1K this does not affect the MBR scheme it seems.

Could I use a freebsd-boot partition type instead and flash to that?

it skips the first kilo of the disk so it does not overwrite the boot record (oseek=1)
 
I have it booting off sd card with only ubldr.bin, /EFI/ and /dtb directories.
Kernel and rest on mSATA.

With the proper Hummingboard2 DTB from U-Boot I now have emmc working and I need to investigate.
Some special partitions already exist.

Well In the end the best I can manage is u-boot.imx flashed to the onboard 8GB eMMC emmcsd1 .
Once I flash the eMMC I switch jumpers from SD Card boot to eMMC boot.

With that it jumps to EFI partition and root filesystem on mSATA.
So no SD card needed and all solid state drives. Granted eMMC2 speed is only 25Megabytes /sec.
But for a bootloader it should be fine.
What U-Boot is doing with a 1Kb bootloader is pretty amazing.

I was greatly off here. U-Boot boot image size is 53Kb

I just got a used Hummingboard2 CBI.
developer.solid-run.com

HummingBoard CBi - SolidRun

Product Overview Main features SoC: NXP i.MX6 based Solo to Quad Core SOM Cortex A9 Memory: Up to 2GB Storage: 8GB eMMC Temperature: Industrial (-40C to 85C) OS: Linux Specifications SOM Model NXP i.MX6 based Solo to Quad Core SOM Processor i.MX6 Solo – Quad core ARM Cortex A9 up...

This board drops HDMI and audio jacks and adds CAN Bus and RS485.

The CPU module is the older uSOM rev 1.3. This has no eMMC.
It is also IMX6 Dual-Lite. That means no SATA!!
I also have another Hummingboard with IMX6 Solo on the way. No SATA on the IMX6 Solo either.

I have swapped the uSOM around. The Quad Core with 8GB eMMC works fine on the Hummingboard2 CBI model.
That eSOM is rev 1.5 and most of those have 8GB eMMC on eSOM.
Some earlier carrier boards had the eMMC mounted on it. The Solo board I have coming has eMMC on the carrier.
 
I looked around at another board to invest in and I really can't find any compatibles.
Hummingboard2 has swappable CPU/Mem/eMMC and slotted standard storage with M.2 mSATA and a mPCIe slot.

Beat that.

Quartz and RockPro have PCIe x4 slot. But custom eMMC module needed with several sizes out of stock.
That comes close. But PCIe slot for embedded? Why not several M.2 slots.
 
I was looking at the inner working of the u-boot mx6cuboxi board files and I am amazed that they are using GPIO Pin states to identify the various Hummingboards and uSOM modules.
Code: 
static enum board_type board_type(void)
{
    int val1, val2, val3;

    SETUP_IOMUX_PADS(board_detect);

    /*
     * Machine selection -
     * Machine      val1, val2, val3

     * HB2            x     x    0
     * HB rev 3.x     x     0    x

     * HB             1     1    x
     */

    gpio_direction_input(IMX_GPIO_NR(2, 8));
    val3 = gpio_get_value(IMX_GPIO_NR(2, 8));

    if (val3 == 0)
        return HUMMINGBOARD2;

    gpio_direction_input(IMX_GPIO_NR(3, 4));
    val2 = gpio_get_value(IMX_GPIO_NR(3, 4));

    if (val2 == 0)
        return HUMMINGBOARD;

    gpio_direction_input(IMX_GPIO_NR(4, 9));
    val1 = gpio_get_value(IMX_GPIO_NR(4, 9));

    if (val1 == 0) {
        return CUBOXI;
    } else {
        return HUMMINGBOARD;
    }
}

static bool is_rev_15_som(void)
{
    int val1, val2;
    SETUP_IOMUX_PADS(som_rev_detect);

    val1 = gpio_get_value(IMX_GPIO_NR(6, 0));
    val2 = gpio_get_value(IMX_GPIO_NR(6, 4));

    if (val1 == 1 && val2 == 0)
        return true;

    return false;
}

static bool has_emmc(void)
{
    struct mmc *mmc;
    mmc = find_mmc_device(2);
    if (!mmc)
        return 0;
    return (mmc_get_op_cond(mmc) < 0) ? 0 : 1;

I have decoded the Hummingboard2 GPIO Pin Assignments from imx6qdl-hummingboard2.dtsi
This uses a 36 Pin GPIO Header(Slight Gap/Shift In Middle) 4 Pins wide x 9 rows.
The top part of this is right from the dtsi file. I did add ROW-s to make it easier to decode.

Code: 
             * 36 pin headers GPIO description. The pins
                 * numbering as following -
                 *
    ROW-A         *    3.2v  5v    74    75
    ROW-B         *    73    72    71    70
    ROW-C         *    69    68    67    66
                 *
    ROW-D         *    77    78    79    76
    ROW-E         *    65    64    61    60

    ROW-H         *    95    94    90    91
    ROW-I         *    GND   54    24    204
                 *
                 * The GPIO numbers can be extracted using
                 * signal name from below.
                 * i.e. The mapping of GPIO(X,Y) to Linux gpio

  Here is what to use for FreeBSD gpioctl: (ie. gpioctl -f /dev/gpioc4 -c 4 OUT)
