==Zedboard Development on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with ISE 14.5 (Currently running in Virtual Box on a Mac)==
 
Plug in two micro USB cables (one is provided with the Zedboard) to Zedboard ports J13 and J17 (UART and PROG) respectively. Set jumpers JP7-JP11 as described in tutorial for Helloworld. Plug USB cables into computer.
 
Turn on Zedboard. In Virtual Box open the machine settings that Ubuntu is installed in. Select the Ports tab, and the USB tab. Add a USB Device Filter (plus sign) for 2012 Cyprus Semiconductor Cypress - USB2UART-Ver1.0G, and also Digilent USB Device. This automatically connects the USB ports for Ubuntu whenever the Zedboard is connected.
 
In Ubuntu:
 
'''Note:''' To extract files use: tar -xvf filename
 
 
1) Install libusb: sudo apt-get install libusb-dev
 
2) Work around for arm toolchain install:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash  (Select NO when prompted)
 
3) Download ISE 14.5
 
4) Install: ./xsetup (do not install cable drivers). Select System Edition
 
5) Work around for arm toolchain install: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash  (Select YES when prompted)
 
6) Download Digilent Runtime and Utilities: [http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?Prod=ADEPT2]
 
7) Install both using: sudo ./install.sh (note install can be for all users or the user installing, see README for instructions)
 
8) Download Digilent Plugin: [http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?Prod=DIGILENT-PLUGIN]
 
9) Install plugin per instructions included in PDF.
 
 
'''Note:''' There are several terminal emulator options. Minicom can be run in a shell. A google search will show how to use it. Alternatively in SDK you can use the terminal emulator that is included.

==Getting JTAG working with the Zedboard==
 
From http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?NavPath=2%2C66%2C828&Prod=ADEPT2 download the following packages (these are for 64bit so for x86 you will want the 32bit versions):
 
digilent.adept.runtime_2.13.1-x86_64.tar.gz
digilent.adept.utilities_2.1.1-x86_64.tar.gz
libCseDigilent_2.4.3-x86_64.tar.gz
 
 
then install the runtime:
tar xzf digilent.adept.runtime_2.13.1-x86_64.tar.gz; cd digilent.adept.runtime_2.13.1-x86_64; ./install.sh
 
 
... and here is the important part: '''AND''' the ftdi driver
cd ftdi.drivers_1.0.4-x86_64; ./install.sh
 
 
Then the utilities
  same method as runtime above
 
 
At this point the following command
djtgcfg enum
 
 
... should show board details:
Found 1 device(s)
Device: Zed
    Product Name:  Digilent Zed
    User Name:      Zed
     Serial Number:  XXXXXXXXXXXX
'''
Note:''' You need to fix the udev rules, restart udev and unplug/replug the usb-jtag to get the driver (ftdi_sio) unloaded and the permissions for the usb device changed.
 
The libCseDigilent_2.4.3-x86_64.tar.gz contains two files in ISE14x/plugin:
libCseDigilent.so 
libCseDigilent.xml
 
 
... which need to be copied to the ISE plugin directory.
 
After that, the following should work:
xmd
 
 
... and should show something like:
Xilinx Microprocessor Debugger (XMD) Engine
Xilinx EDK 14.5 Build EDK_P.58f
Copyright (c) 1995-2012 Xilinx, Inc.  All rights reserved.
 
 
Then typing:
connect mb mdm -cable type xilinx_plugin modulename digilent_plugin
 
 
Should show:
XMD%
XMD% connect mb mdm -cable type xilinx_plugin modulename digilent_plugin

==Booting the Zedboard via JTAG==
 
You want to get the ZedBoard_CTT_v14.3_121017.zip for some files from: http://www.zedboard.org/sites/default/files/design/ZedBoard_CTT_v14.3_121017.zip
namely: ps7_init.tcl and stub.tcl
 
Then you also need the following from your design:
*system.bit [PL bitstream]
*u-boot.elf or some other elf binary [PS 2nd stage]
*optionally (Linux Boot): zImage, ramdisk*.gz and devicetree.dtb
 
 
start xmd (the Xilinx® Microprocessor Debugger console as part of ISE), then in the xmd prompt do:
connect arm hw
fpga -f system.bit
source ps7_init.tcl
ps7_init
init_user
source stub.tcl
target 64
dow u-boot.elf
con
 
 
This will connect to the target, upload the fpga bitstream (PL), initialize memory and MIO devices (ps7_init/init_user) and load the second level bootloader (PS)
the 'con' already starts the bootloader.
 
 
optionally, you can also upload the Linux kernel, initramfs and the devicetree like this:
dow -data zImage 0x8000
dow -data ramdisk8M.image.gz 0x800000
dow -data devicetree.dtb 0x1000000
 
 
... and boot the kernel/linux with:
con 0x8000

==Booting the Zedboard via TFTP==
 
Booting the Zedboard via TFTP is a lot faster than the JTAG boot method and doesn't have the drawbacks of SD card shuffling.
It basically boots the Zedboard over the network, a DHCP server directs the Zedboard to the right place to read the required files via TFTP.
 
 
----
 
 
===DHCP Server Setup Ubuntu 12.04 LTS===
 
Connect the Zedboard via Ethernet to a PC running Ubuntu 12.04. Make sure the router in this set up does not contain DHCP records for the Zedboard otherwise the DHCP server running on the PC will have no effects on the Zedboard. The DHCP server on the router and the DHCP server on the PC even if they are on the same network do not interfere normally.
 
To install the required packages run:
sudo apt-get install dhcp3-server dhcpd isc-dhcp-server
 
 
If there is more than one network card(s) in your Ubuntu PC, then you have to select the network card on which your server will be listen for dhcp request. (By default, it listens on eth0):
sudo gedit /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server
 
 
Then edit the config file:
sudo gedit /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
 
In this case the network is set up in the 192.168.10.X range and the dhcpd.conf looks like this (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard)
 
subnet 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
        # default gateway
        option routers 192.168.10.254;
        option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
         
        always-reply-rfc1048 true;
        next-server 192.168.10.AAA;
        host zedboard {
                hardware ethernet 00:0A:35:00:01:22;
                fixed-address 192.168.10.BBB;
                filename "/ZED/u-boot.scr";
        }
}
 
'''Note:''' All Zedboards have the same MAC address hardcoded into our bootloader currently:
00:0A:35:00:01:22
 
After making changes to the file restart the dhcp server with:
sudo service isc-dhcp-server restart
 
 
... or start it manually if it has not been started yet:
sudo service isc-dhcp-server start
 
 
When you look at the syslog on your Ubuntu PC with:
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
 
 
You should see lines like the following when the DHCP server is started and Zedboard is making requests to the DHCP server (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard):
Oct  3 20:23:40 Ubuntu-PC dhcpd: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Server 4.1-ESV-R4

Oct  3 20:23:54 Ubuntu-PC dhcpd: BOOTREPLY for 192.168.10.BBB to zedboard (00:0a:35:00:01:22) via eth0
 
On the Zedboards UART you should see something like this (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard):

===TFTP Server Setup Ubuntu 12.04 LTS===
 
Install required packages:
apt-get install tftpd-hpa tftp-hpa xinetd
 
 
Create a text file if it does not exist yet called tftp under /etc/xinetd.d/
sudo gedit /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
 
The tftp file should look like this:
service tftp
{
protocol        = udp
port            = 69
socket_type     = dgram
wait            = yes
user            = root
server          = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args    = -c -s /var/lib/tftpboot --verbose
disable        = no
  }
  }
#change the registers 69/98/102/107/108/112 and 124               
cmv_reg  69      2
cmv_reg  98  39705
cmv_reg 102  8312
cmv_reg 107  9814
cmv_reg 108  12381
cmv_reg 112      5
cmv_reg 124    15
#read the register 127
cmv_reg 127


basically the registers get mapped to 32bit spaces starting at a specific memory address (0x60000000 in this case), reading from that memory will show the register, writing to that memory will change it


so register '0' is at 0x60000000, register '1' at 0x60000004 ...
The files that are served via tftp are located in
/var/lib/tftpboot
 
 
Download the 'ZED' folder to your /var/lib/tftpboot folder by typing:
wget -m -nv -np -c -nH --cut-dirs=3 -R 'index.html*' http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Stuff/AXIOM/TFTP/ZED/
 
 
Download the
boot.bin
from http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Stuff/AXIOM/TFTP/ to your /var/lib/tftpboot/ directory
 
Then create some symlinks inside the ZED folder in the root TFTP folder (/var/lib/tftpboot/ZED/)
cd /var/lib/tftpboot/ZED/
ln -s BERTL.xilinx/zImage zImage
ln -s BERTL.PL/cmv_io.bin system.bin
ln -s ZedBoard_OOB_Design/ramdisk8M.image.gz ramdisk.image.gz
ln -s BERTL.xilinx/devicetree_ramdisk.dtb devicetree_ramdisk.dtb
 
 
Then make sure that all the files can be acessed by TFTP:
sudo chmod -R 777 /var/lib/tftpboot/*
 
 
Start the TFTP server with:
sudo service xinetd start
 
 
Monitor your Ubuntu-PC's syslog by typing:
sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog
 
 
When the Zedboard is correctly booting via TFTP you should see something like the following in syslog (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard):
Oct  3 20:24:52 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2859]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename /ZED/u-boot.scr
Oct  3 20:24:52 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2860]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename ZED/system.bin

Oct  3 20:24:55 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2863]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename ZED/ramdisk.image.gz
 
 
----
 
 
===SD Card Preparations===
 
Download boot.bin (as BOOT.BIN) and copy it the to the SD card that is plugged into the Zedboard:
*Download from http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Stuff/AXIOM/TFTP/boot.bin
 
 
The boot.bin will request an IP via DHCP and then start loading the advertised boot file, which is an u-boot script that is then executed, and can be used to customize the setup steps.
An example script is provided to boot into the demo ZedBoard_OOB design.
 
 
----
 
 
===Boot Process===
 
Boot time from power on till Linux prompt is 29 seconds
 
5 seconds till boot.bin is booted, 3 seconds wait to interrupt the bootloader, 3 seconds kernel boot, rest is bootp/tftp and stuff
 
#Autoboot (from boot.bin) will first request an IP via BOOTP
#Then request the file ZED/u-boot.scr (the script)
#Then execute that script, which contains:
#tftp 0x1000000 ZED/system.bin
#fpga load 0 0x${fileaddr} 0x${filesize}
#tftp 0x8000 ZED/zImage
#tftp 0x1000000 ZED/devicetree_ramdisk.dtb
#tftp 0x800000 ZED/ramdisk.image.gz
#bootz 0x8000 0x${fileaddr}:0x${filesize} 0x1000000
#go 0x8000 so it first fetches the PL code and uploads it to the FPGA
#then it requests the kernel, devicetree and initrd
#then it tries to boot the new style

3 Zedboard related Notes

3.1 Zedboard Development on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with ISE 14.5 (Currently running in Virtual Box on a Mac)

Plug in two micro USB cables (one is provided with the Zedboard) to Zedboard ports J13 and J17 (UART and PROG) respectively. Set jumpers JP7-JP11 as described in tutorial for Helloworld. Plug USB cables into computer.

Turn on Zedboard. In Virtual Box open the machine settings that Ubuntu is installed in. Select the Ports tab, and the USB tab. Add a USB Device Filter (plus sign) for 2012 Cyprus Semiconductor Cypress - USB2UART-Ver1.0G, and also Digilent USB Device. This automatically connects the USB ports for Ubuntu whenever the Zedboard is connected.

In Ubuntu:

Note: To extract files use: tar -xvf filename


1) Install libusb: sudo apt-get install libusb-dev

2) Work around for arm toolchain install: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash (Select NO when prompted)

3) Download ISE 14.5

4) Install: ./xsetup (do not install cable drivers). Select System Edition

5) Work around for arm toolchain install: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow dash (Select YES when prompted)

6) Download Digilent Runtime and Utilities: [1]

7) Install both using: sudo ./install.sh (note install can be for all users or the user installing, see README for instructions)

8) Download Digilent Plugin: [2]

9) Install plugin per instructions included in PDF.


Note: There are several terminal emulator options. Minicom can be run in a shell. A google search will show how to use it. Alternatively in SDK you can use the terminal emulator that is included.



3.2 Getting JTAG working with the Zedboard

From http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?NavPath=2%2C66%2C828&Prod=ADEPT2 download the following packages (these are for 64bit so for x86 you will want the 32bit versions): 

digilent.adept.runtime_2.13.1-x86_64.tar.gz
digilent.adept.utilities_2.1.1-x86_64.tar.gz
libCseDigilent_2.4.3-x86_64.tar.gz


then install the runtime: 

tar xzf digilent.adept.runtime_2.13.1-x86_64.tar.gz; cd digilent.adept.runtime_2.13.1-x86_64; ./install.sh


... and here is the important part: AND the ftdi driver 

cd ftdi.drivers_1.0.4-x86_64; ./install.sh


Then the utilities 

same method as runtime above


At this point the following command 

djtgcfg enum


... should show board details: 

Found 1 device(s)

Device: Zed
   Product Name:   Digilent Zed
   User Name:      Zed
   Serial Number:  XXXXXXXXXXXX

Note: You need to fix the udev rules, restart udev and unplug/replug the usb-jtag to get the driver (ftdi_sio) unloaded and the permissions for the usb device changed.

The libCseDigilent_2.4.3-x86_64.tar.gz contains two files in ISE14x/plugin: 

libCseDigilent.so  
libCseDigilent.xml


... which need to be copied to the ISE plugin directory.

After that, the following should work: 

xmd


... and should show something like: 

Xilinx Microprocessor Debugger (XMD) Engine
Xilinx EDK 14.5 Build EDK_P.58f
Copyright (c) 1995-2012 Xilinx, Inc.  All rights reserved.


Then typing: 

connect mb mdm -cable type xilinx_plugin modulename digilent_plugin


Should show: 

XMD%
XMD% connect mb mdm -cable type xilinx_plugin modulename digilent_plugin


JTAG chain configuration
--------------------------------------------------
Device   ID Code        IR Length    Part Name
 1       4ba00477           4        Cortex-A9
 2       03727093           6        XC7Z020
ERROR: Could not detect MDM peripheral on hardware. Please check:
        1. If FPGA is configured correctly
        2. MDM Core is instantiated in the design
        3. If the correct FPGA is referred, in case of multiple FPGAs
        4. If the correct MDM is referred, in case of a multiple MDM system

Note: The default image has no mdm IP



3.3 Booting the Zedboard via JTAG

You want to get the ZedBoard_CTT_v14.3_121017.zip for some files from: http://www.zedboard.org/sites/default/files/design/ZedBoard_CTT_v14.3_121017.zip namely: ps7_init.tcl and stub.tcl

Then you also need the following from your design:

  • system.bit [PL bitstream]
  • u-boot.elf or some other elf binary [PS 2nd stage]
  • optionally (Linux Boot): zImage, ramdisk*.gz and devicetree.dtb


start xmd (the Xilinx® Microprocessor Debugger console as part of ISE), then in the xmd prompt do: 

connect arm hw
fpga -f system.bit
source ps7_init.tcl
ps7_init
init_user
source stub.tcl
target 64
dow u-boot.elf
con


This will connect to the target, upload the fpga bitstream (PL), initialize memory and MIO devices (ps7_init/init_user) and load the second level bootloader (PS) the 'con' already starts the bootloader.


optionally, you can also upload the Linux kernel, initramfs and the devicetree like this: 

dow -data zImage 0x8000
dow -data ramdisk8M.image.gz 0x800000
dow -data devicetree.dtb 0x1000000


... and boot the kernel/linux with: 

con 0x8000



3.4 Booting the Zedboard via TFTP

Booting the Zedboard via TFTP is a lot faster than the JTAG boot method and doesn't have the drawbacks of SD card shuffling. It basically boots the Zedboard over the network, a DHCP server directs the Zedboard to the right place to read the required files via TFTP.



3.4.1 DHCP Server Setup Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Connect the Zedboard via Ethernet to a PC running Ubuntu 12.04. Make sure the router in this set up does not contain DHCP records for the Zedboard otherwise the DHCP server running on the PC will have no effects on the Zedboard. The DHCP server on the router and the DHCP server on the PC even if they are on the same network do not interfere normally.

To install the required packages run: 

sudo apt-get install dhcp3-server dhcpd isc-dhcp-server


If there is more than one network card(s) in your Ubuntu PC, then you have to select the network card on which your server will be listen for dhcp request. (By default, it listens on eth0): 

sudo gedit /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server


Then edit the config file: 

sudo gedit /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

In this case the network is set up in the 192.168.10.X range and the dhcpd.conf looks like this (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard) 

subnet 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
       # default gateway
       option routers 192.168.10.254;
       option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
         
       always-reply-rfc1048 true;
       next-server 192.168.10.AAA;

       host zedboard {
               hardware ethernet 00:0A:35:00:01:22;
               fixed-address 192.168.10.BBB;
               filename "/ZED/u-boot.scr";
       }

}

Note: All Zedboards have the same MAC address hardcoded into our bootloader currently: 

00:0A:35:00:01:22

After making changes to the file restart the dhcp server with: 

sudo service isc-dhcp-server restart


... or start it manually if it has not been started yet: 

sudo service isc-dhcp-server start


When you look at the syslog on your Ubuntu PC with: 

sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog


You should see lines like the following when the DHCP server is started and Zedboard is making requests to the DHCP server (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard):

On the Zedboards UART you should see something like this (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard):

3.4.2 TFTP Server Setup Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Install required packages: 

apt-get install tftpd-hpa tftp-hpa xinetd


Create a text file if it does not exist yet called tftp under /etc/xinetd.d/ 

sudo gedit /etc/xinetd.d/tftp

The tftp file should look like this: 

service tftp
{
protocol        = udp
port            = 69
socket_type     = dgram
wait            = yes
user            = root
server          = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args     = -c -s /var/lib/tftpboot --verbose
disable         = no
}


The files that are served via tftp are located in 

/var/lib/tftpboot


Download the 'ZED' folder to your /var/lib/tftpboot folder by typing: 

wget -m -nv -np -c -nH --cut-dirs=3 -R 'index.html*' http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Stuff/AXIOM/TFTP/ZED/


Download the 

boot.bin

from http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Stuff/AXIOM/TFTP/ to your /var/lib/tftpboot/ directory

Then create some symlinks inside the ZED folder in the root TFTP folder (/var/lib/tftpboot/ZED/) 

cd /var/lib/tftpboot/ZED/
ln -s BERTL.xilinx/zImage zImage
ln -s BERTL.PL/cmv_io.bin system.bin
ln -s ZedBoard_OOB_Design/ramdisk8M.image.gz ramdisk.image.gz
ln -s BERTL.xilinx/devicetree_ramdisk.dtb devicetree_ramdisk.dtb


Then make sure that all the files can be acessed by TFTP: 

sudo chmod -R 777 /var/lib/tftpboot/*


Start the TFTP server with: 

sudo service xinetd start


Monitor your Ubuntu-PC's syslog by typing: 

sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog


When the Zedboard is correctly booting via TFTP you should see something like the following in syslog (AAA = Ubuntu PC, BBB = Zedboard): 

Oct  3 20:24:52 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2859]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename /ZED/u-boot.scr
Oct  3 20:24:52 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2860]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename ZED/system.bin
Oct  3 20:24:54 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2861]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename ZED/zImage
Oct  3 20:24:55 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2862]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename ZED/devicetree_ramdisk.dtb
Oct  3 20:24:55 Ubuntu-PC in.tftpd[2863]: RRQ from 192.168.10.BBB filename ZED/ramdisk.image.gz



3.4.3 SD Card Preparations

Download boot.bin (as BOOT.BIN) and copy it the to the SD card that is plugged into the Zedboard:


The boot.bin will request an IP via DHCP and then start loading the advertised boot file, which is an u-boot script that is then executed, and can be used to customize the setup steps. An example script is provided to boot into the demo ZedBoard_OOB design.



3.4.4 Boot Process

Boot time from power on till Linux prompt is 29 seconds

5 seconds till boot.bin is booted, 3 seconds wait to interrupt the bootloader, 3 seconds kernel boot, rest is bootp/tftp and stuff

  1. Autoboot (from boot.bin) will first request an IP via BOOTP
  2. Then request the file ZED/u-boot.scr (the script)
  3. Then execute that script, which contains:
  4. tftp 0x1000000 ZED/system.bin
  5. fpga load 0 0x${fileaddr} 0x${filesize}
  6. tftp 0x8000 ZED/zImage
  7. tftp 0x1000000 ZED/devicetree_ramdisk.dtb
  8. tftp 0x800000 ZED/ramdisk.image.gz
  9. bootz 0x8000 0x${fileaddr}:0x${filesize} 0x1000000
  10. go 0x8000 so it first fetches the PL code and uploads it to the FPGA
  11. then it requests the kernel, devicetree and initrd
  12. then it tries to boot the new style
