Introducing BSP

The BSP contains cross toolchain, linux kernel source code, u-boot source code, Android root file system and some scripts. It is consist of three top folders: "android", "image", "scripts".

Overview

The description of some important folders as below:
android/
prebuilt/gcc/linux-x86/host/ : cross toolchain
bootable/bootloader/uboot-imx/ : u-boot source code
kernel_imx/ : linux kernel source code
device/
fsl/ : Android device related settings
fsl-proprietary/ : modules & firmware(e.g. WiFi, GPU)
hardware/imx/ : HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer)
image/ : all built images located in
scripts/ : to simplify building process (Please refer to 1.4 & 1.5 for details)

Naming Rule

It is consist of the model name followed by "AB" plus version number, for example, 4410ABV2080 which "4410" stands for RSB-4410, "AB" is acronym of Android BSP, "V2080" stands for Version 2.080; other model names list below:
"3420" stands for ROM-3420
"5420" stands for ROM-5420
"7420" stands for ROM-7420
"DS31" stands for UBC-DS31
"U220" stands for UBC-220

Conventions

${BOARD} : target board name (list below)

rsb_4410 / rom_3420 / rom_5420 / rom_7420 / ubc_ds31 / ubc_200

${BSPHOME} : the directory that BSP tarball extacted to

${SD_DEVICE} : device name of SD card in Ubuntu (e.g. /dev/sdf)

${MMC_DEVICE} : device name of on-board eMMC in Android (e.g. /dev/block/mmcblk0)

debug console / serial console

serial terminal program (e.g. minicom, putty, teraterm ...) that serial port is configured to 115200 8N1

terminal console

terminal program (e.g. gnome-terminal, xfce4-terminal ...)

Build Instructions

To build everything

Perform one of the following commands in terminal console
  • engineer version (default option)
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_android.sh ${BOARD}
  • user version
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_android.sh ${BOARD} user

To build boot loader

Perform the following command in terminal console
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_bootloader.sh ${BOARD}

To build boot image

Perform the following command in terminal console
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_bootimg.sh ${BOARD}

To build recovery image

Perform the following command in terminal console
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_recoveryimg.sh ${BOARD}

To build system image

Perform the following command in terminal console
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_systemimg.sh ${BOARD}

To build OTA image

Perform the following command in terminal console
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mk_otapackage.sh ${BOARD}
and the OTA package, update.zip, is located in the following directory
../android/out/target/product/${BOARD}.

Boot up from SD card or eMMC

To create a bootable SD card

Perform the following command in terminal console
$ cd ${BSPHOME}/scripts
$ ./mksd-android.sh ${SD_DEVICE}

To transfer whole system to onboard eMMC

Boot up from SD card
Perform the following commands in debug console
# cd /data/mkimage/scripts
# sh ./mksd-android.sh ${MMC_DEVICE}
Remove SD card, then target board can boot up from onboard eMMC.
