Compile Error while doing make

[Thomas Leidenfrost]

Hello,

after using the config-file from the Advantech PCM-5823 and adding the 
option "HAVE_FRAMEBUFFER=1" in the config-file I got this Errormessage: 
(kernelpath set to systemkernel 2.6.7)

Hi,

Well I have not used PCM or Frame buffering, but your error looks like
you have the framebuffer definition/ prototype, but no implementation. 
Look
for where `framebuffer_on' is implemented and see if there is
an additional compile switch needed to build this in 
for support.  Hope this helps.

Hi Again,

Just out of curiosity I poked around again and I don't think the
PCM-5823 has
support for the frame buffering.  You could try VGA bios/testbios to get
your
card to initialize.  You'll need pcituils to compile it, but it should
work.

Hi,

currently I'm using the AW-B651 from ICS, it is very similar to the 
PCM-5823, except the other superio-chip (Winbond M83977EF), I changed 
the Config-File according to this.
Also I removed the option "HAVE_FRAMEBUFFER=1" for the second try, but 
the error-message was very similar to the previous one.

Anyway, thanks @David for your advice, but I'm an absolutely novice 
without any idea of your intention, neither was it pcituils nor where to 
get it or how to use it. So I think I want to make it work anyway and 
then comes the fine-tuning.

Thx, Tom

Looks like the boot up serial_setup is not right.  crt0.s is built from 
files specified in your ./mainboard/Avantech/pcm-5823/Config

the serial boot output stuff is built from this line.

mainboardinit superio/SMC/fdc37b72x/setup_serial.inc

Looking at the .inc for the advantech stuff and the config  and some 
grepping I see that the superio base address is set with SMC_BASE in the 
pcm-5823 but set with SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS in the pcm-9574.

What did you change this like to?

Go look at whatever seteup_serial.inc you have and see what option it 
needs set for the serial base address.

It may be as simple as adding a

option SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS 0x<base>

to your mainboard config file or you may have to make some 
setup_serial.inc mods for whatever superio you changed to.

[Thomas Leidenfrost]

Now I am one step closer to the end, thanks for your patience and help! 
Probably not the last, but my actual problem:  :-)

...dd if=linuxbios.strip of=linuxbios.rom bs=1 seek=`expr 65536 - $size`
65536
65536+0 Records ein
65536+0 Records aus
objcopy -O binary -R .note -R .comment -S /boot/vmlinux linux.bin
objcopy: /boot/vmlinux: File format not recognized
make: *** [linux.bin] Error 1

I got a linuxbios.rom and a linuxbios.strip, both 64kB. But somehow, I 
think, the other 192kB of the Bios have to be filled with some 
kernel-sources. I read something about kernel 2.4.10 and a patch, but I 
can't find these instructions again. Then, if done, I think I have to 
put the linuxbios.rom & the linux.bin together with the tool nrv2b. Am I 
right?

Thanks again,

Tom

P.S. @Richard: I added this to the config-file (didn't know it should be 
there): option SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS=0x3f0

Now you are getting out of my realm on this board.  I've never used nrv2b.

The error your getting above is because you have the default payload 
setup and it dosen't exist.  If you don't specify a payload it defaults 
to linux.  The actual linuxbios build is complete.  You can take 
linuxbios.rom and put it in a chip.  Only linuxbios will run though 
since you don't have a payload.

Make sure you document up all the changes you had to make and funnel 
them back to the list so CVS can be updated and it works for the next guy.

sorry that LANL is going to be so quiet here, if you read wired.com you'll 
know how. I hope we can get back to helping out soon.

How do I specify a payload? I decompressed the sources of my actual 
running kernel (2.4.22)
to /stuff2/Linuxe/kernel2422 and copied the current-used vmlinux into 
the same directory.
But thats not all, I think...

I'll do after successful testing! :-)

Furtunally I made it work somehow to have a payload! :-)
(according to howto's e.g. from sis630)

But now there are two new issues to be solved...

The Linuxbios.rom is 64 kB, the Bioschip is 256 kB and the flashutility 
says: "File and ROM size mismatch"  -> Do I need a new smaller Bios-ROM?
Or is there another way making it work?

And when using the payloader, which file is the right one?

1. romimage 		(1.4 MB)
2. payload.block 	(1.3 MB)
3. linux.bin.gz		(1.2 MB)

Thanks in advance for any hint.

Yours,
Tom (almost lucky)

Hi,

Some flash utilities allow you to flash segments with beginning and
ending offsets.
Or what you could do is make 4 copies of your rom and write them, back
to back to
back to back:)

well you could

dd if=/dev/zero of=outimage.rom bs=1k count=256
dd if=Linuxbios.rom of=outimage.rom bs=1k seek=192

This will give you a 256kb Image with LB located in the last 64k.

Also you can mess with option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE and option PAYLOAD_SIZE

I set ROM_IMAGE_SIZE to Chip size - payload size.

These control various parameters that are given to dd when it builds the 
imagefile.

the 'payload' statement in the config file determines what payload file 
is used.
