A10 SoC boot failure !

[Matt1]

hi,

SoC Booting happening though SDcard with early IO release configuration.

Is there any limitation for the early IO release configuration as i am facing this issue after adding HIP pcie rootport along with EMIF and a HIP PCIe Endpoint.

can somebody please put some light on this topic!!

valuable suggestions are most welcome.

following is the log .

Hi ,

Please refer the document below

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/an/an-a10-soc-fpga-early-io-release.pdf

The section 4. Debugging Early I/O Release

mentions about the debugging steps which can be followed to troubleshoot the early io release issue,

Please let us know after you tries out the same, and any other observation which comes along.

Thanks and Regads

thanks for the reply,

will check it..!!

as the FPGA is configured and the boot of HPS is stuck at uboot , i think the issue is something else..!!!

Hi,

Similar issues are also observed due to Device Tree mismatches between the custom board and reference design.
