Add support for Gateworks Venice imx8m family of boards:
- required kernel modules for on-board devices
- image generation
- initial network config
- sysupgrade support
The resulting compressed disk image
(bin/targets/imx/cortexa53/openwrt-imx-cortexa53-gateworks_venice-squashfs-img.gz)
can be installed on a Gateworks venice board via U-Boot:
u-boot=> tftpboot $loadaddr openwrt-imx-cortexa53-gateworks_venice-squashfs-img.gz && \
gzwrite mmc $dev $loadaddr $filesize
WARNING: this will overwrite any boot firmware on the eMMC user hardware
partition which if being used will brick your board requiring JTAG to
re-program boot firmware and recover
The compressed disk image contains the partition table and filesystems only
and that it is expected that boot firmware is installed properly on the
eMMC boot0 hardware partition. The easiest way to ensure this is to
use the Gateworks JTAG adapter/process to install the latest boot firmware
as follows from a Linux host:
wget http://dev.gateworks.com/jtag/jtag_usbv4
chmod +x jtag_usbv4
wget http://dev.gateworks.com/venice/images/firmware-venice-imx8mm.bin
sudo ./jtag_usbv4 -p firmware-venice-imx8mm.bin

Add imx8m support:
- add a cortexa53 subtarget to imx
- move ARCH and KERNELNAME to subtargets
- account for kernel modules that are not used for cortexa53
No device-specific targets or firmware images are created yet but all
imx8m* dtbs will be built.
enabling CONFIG_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS results in
openwrt-imx-cortexa53-imx8m-initramfs-kernel.bin which has been
successfully booted on an imx8mm-evk using the following:
u-boot=> tftpboot $fdt_addr_r image-imx8mm-evk.dtb && \
tftpboot $kernel_addr_r openwrt-imx-cortexa53-imx8m-initramfs-kernel.bin && \

Kernel setting CONFIG_IO_URING supports high-performance I/O for file
access and servers, generally for more performant platforms, and adds
~45 KB to kernel sizes. The need for this on less "beefy" devices is
questionable, as is the size cost considering many platforms have kernel
size limits which require tricky repartitioning if outgrown. The size
cost is also large relative to the ~180 KB bump expected between major
OpenWRT kernel releases.
No OpenWrt packages have hard dependencies on this; samba4 and mariadb
can take advantage if available (+KERNEL_IO_URING:liburing) but
otherwise build and work fine.
Since CONFIG_IO_URING is already managed via the KERNEL_IO_URING setting
in Config-kernel.in (default Y), remove it from those target configs
which unconditionally enable it, and update the defaults to enable it
conditionally only on more powerful 64-bit x86 and arm devices. It may
still be manually enabled as needed for high-performance custom builds.

According to commit 6f6c2fb321, AP6335 module used in PICO-PI-IMX7D works
only with firmware from `linux-firmware`. However, firmware from
`cypress-firmware` suite is directly from the chip company (Infineon) and
is actually newer.
Instead of dropping the firmware from Infineon, create a package named
`brcmfmac-firmware-4339-sdio`, and keep the Infineon version of
`cypress-firmware-4339-sdio` around.
This gives us devs the option to choose. Also, it means that
- packages `brcmfmac-firmware-*` uniformly come from `linux-firmware`
- packages `cypress-firmware-*` uniformly come from `cypress-firmware`
so hopefully brings more clarity.

TechNexion PICO-PI-IMX7D is a NXP i.MX 7Dual based development board in
the well-known "Raspberry Pi" form factor, comprising of PICO-IMX7 SoM
and the PICO-PI-IMX7D carrier board.
Usually bundled with a 5" 800x480 LVDS display with I2C touchscreen and
an Omnivision OV5645 camera on a MIPI CSI bus, on a daughterboard. The
board was previously used primarily with "Android Things" ecosystem, but
the project was killed by Google.
This would not be possible, if not for the great tutorial of setting up
Debian on this board, by Robert C. Nelson [1].
Hardware highlights:
CPU: NXP i.MX 7Dual SoC, dual-core Cortex-A7 at 1000 MHz
RAM: 512 MiB DDR3 SDRAM
Storage: 4 GB eMMC
Networking:
- built-in Gigabit Ethernet with Atheros AR8035 PHY,
- Broadcom BCM4339 1x1 802.11ac Wi-Fi (over SDIO) + Bluetooth 4.1
(over SDIO + UART + IS2) combo, with Hirose u.FL connector on the
board,
- dual CAN interfaces on the 40-pin connector,
Interfaces:
- USB-C power input plus USB 2.0 OTG host/device port,
- single USB-A host port,
- serial console over built-in FT232BL USB-UART converter with
micro-USB connector (configuration: 115200-8-N-1),
- analog audio interface with TRRS connector in CTIA standard,
- SPI, I2C and UART interfaces available on the 40-pin,
- mikroBUS connector,
- I2C connector for the optional touch panel,
- parallel LCD output for the optional display,
- MIPI CSI connector for the optional camera
Installation:
1. Connect the serial console to debug USB connector and the terminal of
choice in another window, at 115200-8-N-1. Ensure you can switch to
it quickly after next step.
2. Power-on the board from your PC. Ensure your PC can supply required
current, the board can take more than 1 A in the peak load during
booting and brownout will result in power-on reset loop. Preferably,
use charging-capable USB port or connect through self-powered USB
hub. If U-Boot is present already on the eMMC, interrupt the booting
sequence by pressing any key and skip to point 7.
3. Ensure the boot mode jumpers J1 and J2 are in correct position for
USB recovery:
2 6 2 6
--------------
|o o-o||o-o o|
|o o-o||o-o o|
J1 -------------- J2
1 5 1 5
The jumpers are located just underneath the 40-pin expansion header
and are of the smaller 2 mm pitch.
4. Download and build 'imx_usb_loader' from:
https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader.
5. Power-on the board again from your PC through USB OTG connector.
6. Use 'imx_usb_loader' to load 'SPL' and 'u-boot-dtb.img' to the board:
$ sudo imx_usb u-boot-pico-pi-imx7d/SPL
$ sudo imx_usb u-boot-pico-pi-imx7d/u-boot-dtb.img
7. Switch to the terminal from step 2 and interrupt boot sequence by
pressing any key within 2 seconds.
8. Configure mmc 0 to boot from the data partition and disable access to
boot partitions:
=> mmc partconf 0 0 7 0
This only needs to be set once. If you were running Debian previously,
this is probably already set.
9. Enable USB mass storage passthrough for eMMC from U-boot
=> ums 0 mmc 0
10. Optionally, backup previous eMMC contents by reading out its image.
11. Copy over the factory image to the USB device, for example:
$ sudo dd if=openwrt-imx-cortexa7-pico-pi-imx7d-squashfs.combined.bin \
of=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Linux_UMS_disk_0-0:0 \
bs=8M status=progress oflag=direct
12. Detach USB MSC interface from your PC and U-Boot by pressing Ctrl+C.
13. Ensure that boot mode jumpers are at the default settings for eMMC
boot:
2 6 2 6
--------------
|o-o o||o o-o|
|o-o o||o-o o|
J1 -------------- J2
1 5 1 5
If they are not, power-off the board, restore them and power-on the
board again. Otherwise, if jumpers are set, just reset the board from
U-Boot CLI:
=> reset
14. The installation is now complete and board should boot successfully.
Upgrading: just use sysupgrade image, as usual in OpenWrt.
Known issues/current limitations:
- OV5645 camera - not described in upstream device tree as of kernel
5.15. There are staging drivers present in upstream Linux tree for
i.MX 7 CSI, MIPI-CSI and video mux, and the configuration is there in
imx7s.dtsi - so this is expected to get supported eventually,
- on-chip ADCs are disabled in upstream device tree, so the kernel
driver remains disabled as well.
