Introduction

Hardware

Development

Get the source code

Create top directory, rockchip-bsp.

 mkdir ~/rockchip-bsp
 cd ~/rockchip-bsp

u-boot. The second stage bootloader.

 git clone -b stable-4.4-px30 https://github.com/radxa/u-boot.git

kernel. Current version is 4.4.

 git clone -b stable-4.4-px30 https://github.com/radxa/kernel.git

rkbin. Prebuilt Rockchip binaries, include first stage loader and ATF(Arm Trustzone Firmware).

 git clone -b stable-4.4-px30 https://github.com/radxa/rkbin.git

build. Some script files and configuration files for building u-boot, kernel and rootfs.

 git clone -b debian https://github.com/radxa/build.git

Install build tools

 wget https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/7.3-2018.05/aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz
 sudo tar xvf gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz  -C /usr/local/
 sudo apt-get install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu device-tree-compiler libncurses5 libncurses5-dev build-essential libssl-dev mtools
 sudo apt-get install bc python dosfstools ruby-dev
 sudo gem install fpm

Add the following lines to the ~/.bashrc file.

 export CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/local/gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-
 export PATH=/usr/local/gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin:$PATH

Execute the following command.

 source ~/.bashrc

Check if Linaro toolchain is the default choice.

 which aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc
 /usr/local/gcc-linaro-7.3.1-2018.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc

Build U-Boot

 ./build/mk-uboot.sh rockpropx30

The generated images will be copied to out/u-boot directory.

 ls out/u-boot/
 idbloader.img  px30_loader_v1.14.120.bin trust.img  uboot.img

Pack U-Boot

 ./build/pack-uboot.sh -b rockpropx30

The generated packages will be copied to out/packages directory.

 ls out/packages/
 rockpropx30-rk-ubootimg_2017.09-03569-g8d4bb4e_all.deb

Build Kernel

 ./build/mk-kernel.sh rockpropx30

You will get the kernel image and dtb file

 ls out/kernel/
 Image  px30-rockpro.dtb

Pack Kernel

 ./build/pack-kernel.sh -d px30_linux_defconfig -r 1 # px30_linux_defconfig: kernel defconfig; 1: release-number

The generated packages will be copied to out/packages directory.

 ls out/packages
 linux-headers-4.4.189-1-rockchip-gc71f0d4_4.4.189-1-rockchip_arm64.deb
 linux-image-4.4.189-1-rockchip-gc71f0d4_4.4.189-1-rockchip_arm64.deb
 linux-image-4.4.189-1-rockchip-gc71f0d4-dbg_4.4.189-1-rockchip_arm64.deb
 linux-libc-dev_4.4.189-1-rockchip_arm64.deb

Build system image

Get source code.

 git clone -b master https://github.com/radxa/debos.git

Build docker and enter docker container.

 ./dev-shell # build docker and enter docker container

Build system image in Docker container.

 ./build.sh # will show usage
 ./build.sh px30-rockpropx30-debian-buster-xfce4-arm64

The generated system image will be moved to output directory.

Downloads

System images are on the RockPro PX30 images site.

Installation

Install on eMMC module

Step 1:Boot the board to maskrom mode

To boot RockPro PX30 into maskrom mode, you need:

  • Plug the board to Linux Desktop with the USB Male A to Micro B cable
  • Press and hold the maskrom key, then short press reset key
  • Release maskrom key

Now on Linux PC, rkdeveloptool ld command shows the following message.

 $ rkdeveloptool ld
 DevNo=1    Vid=0x2207,Pid=0x330d,LocationID=102    Maskrom

Step 2: Write system image to eMMC Module

 $ rkdeveloptool db px30_loader_v1.14.120.bin
 $ rkdeveloptool wl 0 rockpipx30_debian_buster_xfce4_arm64_20200609_0710-gpt.img
 $ rkdeveloptool rd

Now the device should boot from eMMC now. The first boot would take several minutes.
