U-Boot Compilation
------------------
.. code-block:: bash
$ export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf-
$ make wetek-play2_defconfig
$ make
U-Boot Signing with Pre-Built FIP repo
--------------------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
$ git clone https://github.com/LibreELEC/amlogic-boot-fip --depth=1
$ cd amlogic-boot-fip
$ mkdir my-output-dir
$ ./build-fip.sh wetek-play2 /path/to/u-boot/u-boot.bin my-output-dir
U-Boot Manual Signing
---------------------
Amlogic does not provide sources for the firmware and tools needed to create a bootloader
image and WeTek has not publicly shared the U-Boot sources needed to build FIP binaries
for signing. However you can download them from the amlogic-fip-repo.
.. code-block:: bash
$ git clone https://github.com/LibreELEC/amlogic-boot-fip --depth=1
$ cd amlogic-boot-fip/wetek-play2
$ export FIPDIR=$PWD
Go back to the mainline U-Boot source tree then:
.. code-block:: bash
$ mkdir fip
$ cp $FIPDIR/bl2.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/acs.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/bl21.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/bl30.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/bl301.bin fip/
$ cp $FIPDIR/bl31.img fip/
$ cp u-boot.bin fip/bl33.bin
$ $FIPDIR/blx_fix.sh \
fip/bl30.bin \
fip/zero_tmp \
fip/bl30_zero.bin \
fip/bl301.bin \
fip/bl301_zero.bin \
fip/bl30_new.bin \
bl30
$ $FIPDIR/fip_create --bl30 fip/bl30_new.bin \
--bl31 fip/bl31.img \
--bl33 fip/bl33.bin \
fip/fip.bin
$ sed -i 's/\x73\x02\x08\x91/\x1F\x20\x03\xD5/' fip/bl2.bin
$ python3 $FIPDIR/acs_tool.py fip/bl2.bin fip/bl2_acs.bin fip/acs.bin 0
$ $FIPDIR/blx_fix.sh \
fip/bl2_acs.bin \
fip/zero_tmp \
fip/bl2_zero.bin \
fip/bl21.bin \
fip/bl21_zero.bin \
fip/bl2_new.bin \
bl2
$ cat fip/bl2_new.bin fip/fip.bin > fip/boot_new.bin
$ $FIPDIR/aml_encrypt_gxb --bootsig \
--input fip/boot_new.bin
--output fip/u-boot.bin
Then write U-Boot to SD or eMMC with:
.. code-block:: bash
$ DEV=/dev/boot_device
$ dd if=fip/u-boot.bin of=fip/u-boot.bin.gxbb bs=512 conv=fsync
$ dd if=fip/u-boot.bin of=fip/u-boot.bin.gxbb bs=512 seek=9 skip=8 count=87 conv=fsync,notrunc
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=fip/u-boot.bin.gxbb bs=512 seek=8 count=1 conv=fsync,notrunc
$ dd if=bl1.bin.hardkernel of=fip/u-boot.bin.gxbb bs=512 seek=2 skip=2 count=1 conv=fsync,notrunc
$ ./aml_chksum fip/u-boot.bin.gxbb
$ dd if=fip/u-boot.gxbb of=$DEV conv=fsync,notrunc bs=512 skip=1 seek=1
$ dd if=fip/u-boot.gxbb of=$DEV conv=fsync,notrunc bs=1 count=440
