Our board is configured to boot from SPI ROM. This can be verified by checking the Boot source DIP switches, and by seeing Active boot device: SPI NOR flash during boot.

1.Toolchain
http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Toolchain+Installation
recommended toolchain version: gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz
tar xf gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz # set PATH # export PATH=$PATH:/home/mcbin/toolchain/gcc-linaro-5.3.1-2016.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin |
2.u-boot
Build from source – Bootloader
http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Build+from+source+-+Bootloader
Compile according to the instructions given by the web page
recommended version: u-boot-2018.03-armada-18.09
Update the Bootloader
http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Update+the+Bootloader
This page is about update boot through network, In addition, you can use the USB Flash drive to update boot as following instructions:
Marvell>> usb reset Marvell>> bubt flash-image.bin spi usb Marvell>> reset Marvell>> env default -a Marvell>> env save |
Make sure that the MACCHIATObin board does not experience power loss during the entire updating process, otherwise it will be bricked due to an unfinished bootloader update.
3.Creating filesystem
Creating Ubuntu filesystem
http://wiki.macchiatobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Creating+Ubuntu+filesystem&highlight=file+system
Among one of file systems supported by MACCHIATObin is the Ubuntu file system. you can either build the file system manually or download a prebuilt SD card image.
http://macchiatobin.net/software/
This software page provide a compiled kernel image. If want to compile kernel on MACCHIATObin board, You can use this official image temporarily to start the board.
Boot from removable storage
Please see following link as reference about how to setup Marvell board
Instructions of the page is suit for 17.10,
U-Boot 18.09:
Using Micro SD card:
Marvell>> setenv image_name boot/Image Marvell>> setenv fdt_name boot/armada-8040-mcbin.dtb Marvell>> setenv bootcmd 'mmc dev 1; ext4load mmc 1:1 $kernel_addr_r $image_name;ext4load mmc 1:1 $fdt_addr_r $fdt_name;setenv bootargs $console root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rw rootwait pci=pcie_bus_safe cpuidle.off=1; booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r' Marvell>> saveenv Marvell>> run bootmmc |
Using USB Stick:
Marvell>> setenv image_name boot/Image Marvell>> setenv fdt_name boot/armada-8040-mcbin.dtb Marvell>> setenv bootusb 'usb reset; ext4load usb 0:1 $kernel_addr_r $image_name;ext4load usb 0:1 $fdt_addr_r $fdt_name;setenv bootargs $console root=/dev/sda1 rw rootwait pci=pcie_bus_safe cpuidle.off=1;booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r' Marvell>> saveenv Marvell>> run bootusb |
If U-Boot version is 17.10, you should repleace $kernel_addr_r/$fdt_addr_r by $kernel_addr/$fdt_addr
4. Compile kernel & application
Compile on MACCHIATObin board
Preparing
The /etc/apt/sources.list file that comes with the rootfs is very bare. Replace it with this:
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial main universe restricted multiverse deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial main universe restricted multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-updates main universe restricted multiverse deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-updates main universe restricted multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-backports main restricted universe multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-security main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-security main restricted universe multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-proposed main restricted universe multiverse deb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-proposed main restricted universe multiverse deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ zesty main restricted universe multiverse |
Make sure to run "apt update" after updating this file.

Compile kernel
1) make a new directory
mkdir -p /home/code/kernel/4.14.22
2) download kernel source from git
/home/code/kernel/4.14.22# git clone https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/linux-marvell . /home/code/kernel/4.14.22# git checkout linux-4.14.22-armada-18.09 |
3) Download musdk source
/home/code# mkdir musdk /home/code/musdk#git clone https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/musdk-marvell . /home/code/musdk#git checkout musdk-armada-18.09 |
4) Patches for the kernel source
/home/code/musdk# cd /home/code/kernel/4.14.22/ /home/code/kernel/4.14.22# git am ~/musdk/patches/linux-4.14/*.patch /home/code/kernel/4.14.22# git am /home/code/patch/kernel/0001-arm64-dts-marvell-mcbin-enable-both-cp110-crypto-eng.patch |
0001-arm64-dts-marvell-mcbin-enable-both-cp110-crypto-eng.patch be putted in “Cross compile.zip”.
5) Compile kernel
export ARCH=arm64 make mrproper make mvebu_v8_lsp_defconfig make -j$(($(nproc)+1)) |
6) Copy image&dtb
/home/code/kernel/4.14.22# cp ./arch/arm64/boot/Image /boot/ /home/code/kernel/4.14.22# cp ./arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-mcbin.dtb /boot/ |
compile MUSDK
mkdir /home/code/musdk -p cd /home/code/musdk /home/code/musdk# export KDIR=/home/code/kernel/4.14.22/ /home/code/musdk# sed -i -e 's/O_CREAT/O_CREAT, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR/' src/lib/file_utils.c /home/code/musdk# sed -i -e 's/marvell,mv-pp-uio/generic-uio/' modules/pp2/mv_pp_uio.c |
build kernel modules:
cd modules/cma/ make cd modules/dmax2/ make cd modules/neta/ make cd modules/pp2/ make cd .modules/sam/ make |
Build musdk software:
/home/code/musdk# mkdir /home/code/musdk-bin/ -p /home/code/musdk# ./bootstrap /home/code/musdk# ./configure --enable-sam /home/code/musdk# make -j5 install DESTDIR=/home/code/musdk-bin/ |
If you meet following error:
compile dpdk
cd /home/code/ git clone https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk.git cd dpdk git checkout v18.11 export LIBMUSDK_PATH=/home/code/musdk-bin/home/code/musdk/usr/local/ export RTE_KERNELDIR=/home/code/kernel/4.14.22/ export RTE_TARGET=arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-gcc export RTE_SDK=$PWD make config T=arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-gcc sed -i "s/MVPP2_PMD=n/MVPP2_PMD=y/" build/.config sed -i "s/MVSAM_CRYPTO=n/MVSAM_CRYPTO=y/" build/.config make -j5 |
