Not able to use Easy Installer in custom carrier board

Hi Toradex-Team,

We’ve developed a custom carrier word for the Verdin AM62. Now I’m evaluating if the production process will work. We’ve reused a lot of the Verdin Development Board schematic on our custom development board. For example the reset and recovery buttons and the USB port to flash the Easy Installer, as well as the ethernet port.

The flashing of the easy installer (Verdin-AM62_ToradexEasyInstaller_6.6.0+build.6) in the custom carrier board works. But I can’t get a remote session with the TightVNC Viewer to work. If I used the ip address of the ethernet port I only get a gray screen but to connection seems to be established. If I use the the USB NCM at IP 192.168.11.1 the connection is refused. But I can Ping both addresses.

If I plug in an USB drive with a autoinstall Torizon-Image and a manipulated wrapup.sh (like described here) nothing happens.

But if I use the Verdin Development Board everything described above works as expected.

Here is the hardware information:

Welcome to the Toradex Easy Installer

This is a Linux based installer for Toradex modules. Currently, the installer
does not have a serial console interface. You can use the Toradex Easy Installer
via any of the available display interfaces using USB mouse/keyboard or via a
network connection using VNC. Use:
  # ip addr show
to display the Ethernet IP address(es) or use USB NCM at IP 192.168.11.1.

Check our documentation at:
  https://developer.toradex.com/software/toradex-easy-installer

There are some differences/errors on the custom carrier board log, but i don’t know if the are related to my problem.

Like:

i2c_write: error waiting for data ACK (status=0x116)
get_tdx_eeprom: cannot find EEPROM by node
MISSING TORADEX CARRIER CONFIG BLOCKS
i2c_write: error waiting for data ACK (status=0x116)

Do you have any idea what is the problem and how to fix it? Do I have to configure the Easy Installer somehow?

Kind Regards
Uwe

Greetings @buw3,

I’m checking internally to see if anyone else has seen this behavior before.

Just one question. On your custom carrier board is there a difference in terms of i2c? Much of the differences in the logs messages seem to be complaining about the i2c subsystem. I don’t think this would have an effect on Easy Installer. But it would be good to know if there is a difference in i2c on your custom carrier board versus our carrier board.

Also can you get the logs from the following:

$ journalctl -b -u weston

$ cat /var/volatile/tezi.log

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Hallo @jeremias.tx,

I checked back with the hardware developer. Our carrier board does not contain the following i2c stuff:

  • i2c stuff for power suppy (IMHO no related to the problem)
  • i2c audio chip (IMHO no related to the problem)
  • MIPI DSI (IMHO no related to the problem - because if the Verdin DSI to HDMI Adapter is not connected to the Verdin Eval Board everything sill works)
  • i2c stuff for PCIE (IMHO no related to the problem)
  • EEPROM IC29 (addr 0x57) - maybe this is somehow the problem?

As the logs say - the software is trying to connect to it:

get_tdx_eeprom: cannot find EEPROM by node
MISSING TORADEX CARRIER CONFIG BLOCKS
i2c_write: error waiting for data ACK (status=0x116)
get_tdx_eeprom: cannot find EEPROM by node

What does this EEPROM contains?

I also removed the jumper A1 and A2 on X3 to cut off the ic2 on the Verdin Eval Board. This cause the same error messages in the logs but the Easy Installer remote connection and GUI still works as expected.


Ethernet - maybe another straw
We are also just have one Ethernet-Jack (ETH_1)! The ETH_2 is not present and the logs say:

eth0: ethernet@8000000port@1 [PRIME]Could not get PHY for ethernet@8000000port@1: addr 7
am65_cpsw_nuss_port ethernet@8000000port@2: phy_connect() failed

Does this maybe cause the problem?

But we also disabled the ETH_2 on the Verdin Eval Board by pulling the RESET_N on IC22 to GND and still everything worked as expected.


Weston - an additional Information
After flashing the Easy Installer the ps command only shows this entry regarding to weston on our custom carrier board:

 229 root     32888 S    /usr/bin/weston --backend=vnc-backend.so --modules=s

in comparison to the Verdin Eval board:

 232 root     26004 S    /usr/bin/weston --tty=2 --current-mode
 235 root     31540 S    /usr/bin/weston --backend=vnc-backend.so --shell=ful

So the GUI application is not working and thats why there is just a gray screen?


TEZI log

The command you mentioned

returned the following on both carrier boards:

What does this EEPROM contains?

On our modules that feature an EEPROM, it contains the toradex config block that contains some information about the hardware. Though this shouldn’t be needed for Easy Installer to at least run. As proven by the test you ran on our eval board.

Does this maybe cause the problem?

This shouldn’t have any effect either. Easy Installer can run without any network connections.

So the GUI application is not working and thats why there is just a gray screen?

This is my impression yes. The gray screen indicates that Weston is running, but since you don’t see anything else that means the Easy Installer GUI app is not running.

returned the following on both carrier boards:

You’re saying the log file here is identical on both carrier boards? That’s odd, I was hoping to see some kind of error or crash since it appears that Easy Installer isn’t running on your carrier board. Maybe then it is actually running? In the output for ps do you see any application running for Easy Installer? The application itself should be called “tezi” or something similar.

By the way you didn’t return the output of journalctl -b -u weston. Could you share this please.

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Hi @jeremias.tx,

thanks for the answers :slight_smile:

let me get that straight… I could swear the output on both carrier boards contained the same prints, just in a different order. So I figured they are “equal”. But I’ve redone the commands and here are both prints - they are NOT equal:

Custom carrier board tezi.log
/ # cat /var/volatile/tezi.log

I didn’t know that the GUI application was called "tezi", but this was a good hint. Only on the Verdin eval board the process was running, but not on our custom carrier board.

/ # ps | grep tezi
  248 root      412m S    /usr/bin/tezi -autoinstall -platform wayland
  305 root      3412 R    grep tezi

So i tried to run it manually on your board… and what a surprise the Easy Installer GUI worked - I got an image on the remote desktop and was able to flash the SOM!

/ # /usr/bin/tezi -autoinstall -platform wayland

"AVAHI_BROWSER_ALL_FOR_NOW"

So why isn’t the tezi process able the start automatically in the first place on your hardware?

Yeah, I didn’t share that on purpose, because there is no output. After flashing the Easy Installer with the recovery script and running the command it returns the following on both carrier boards:

/ # journalctl -b -u weston
sh: journalctl: not found

And after starting into the Torizon linux the command returns:

torizon@verdin-am62-15207085:~$ journalctl -b -u weston
-- No entries --

Kind Regards
Uwe

Thank you for double-checking the logs here. With the latest information we can confirm that Easy Installer is not running on your custom carrier board for whatever reason. Though it’s interesting that starting the tezi application manually does work.

This suggests there’s some kind of "bad’ initial state when the system boots up where tezi can’t execute properly. Now how and why your custom carrier board causes this, is still unclear. But, at least now we have the logs showing Easy Installer is indeed not starting on boot.

Let me take these logs to our team and see what can be determined. At least for the time-being you have an short-term workaround for using Easy Installer.

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Hi @jeremias.tx
I’m just curious. Are there any news on this topic? Did the Torizon-Team get an idea through the logs of what causes this problem?

Best Regards,
Uwe

Our team has a few ideas. So it’s obvious that Weston is starting in your system automatically as expected, but Easy Installer is not. Furthermore as per your tests, manually starting Easy Installer afterwards does work.

In Easy Installer the startup is automated by /etc/rc.local. The contents of this is something like:

nohup /usr/bin/weston --tty=2 --current-mode >> ${RW_MEMORY_DIR}/${WESTON_LOGFIL
sleep 0.5                                                                       
nohup /usr/bin/tezi $DEFAULT_KBD $DEFAULT_LANG $AUTOINSTALL $FULLSCREEN \       
        -platform wayland < /dev/null >> ${RW_MEMORY_DIR}/${TEZI_LOGFILE} &

Basically we start Weston then after a 0.5 second delay we start the Easy Installer application. Looking at the logs for Easy Installer you provided, it looks like the application is complaining that there is no Wayland/Weston client available.

Our theory is that perhaps on your custom carrier board the timings of things are slightly different. Maybe it’s taking longer for certain software stacks in the system to startup which causes Weston to take longer to start. If the timing is affected in this way, then maybe the 0.5 second delay isn’t enough of a delay. This would cause the Easy Installer application to be started before Weston is ready.

This would explain why you can start the Easy Installer application afterwards manually. Since by then Weston has had enough time to start and stabilize. It’s difficult to say for sure though what on your custom carrier board could cause such a change in timing.

Assuming this theory is correct you may be able to try some things. Perhaps you can modify the Easy Installer image to increase this delay in /etc/rc.local. Even though it’s a bit unorthodox, we do have a rough guide on modifying Easy Installer: How to Modify a Toradex Easy Installer Image | Toradex Developer Center

Hello @jeremias.tx

sorry for the super late reply. I’m only now returning to this topic. I have read the How to Modify a Toradex Easy Installer Image | Toradex Developer Center and several other related suff. But I couldn’t figure out how to get or find the /etc/rc.local file to manipulate the delay.

In addition I want to modify the image list like described here to realize the Unattended flashing Over the Ethernet. But I also can’t figure where to get or find the tezi_config.json.

Can you guide me to instructions or descriptors I might missing?
Do I have to somehow extract the rootfs from the UBoot with dumpimage to get the required files?

Kind Regards,
Uwe

But I couldn’t figure out how to get or find the /etc/rc.local file to manipulate the delay.

You need to dump the ramdisk from the tezi.itb you can then mount the ramdisk and see the file in /etc/rc.local. I checked on my side and I can see the file contents in this way. Double-checking the latest version of Easy Installer I can see we have the following at the end of this file:

....
# Start in background
# if the first command fails due to any reason e.g. no card available we spin
# only vnc-backend up
{
        nohup /usr/bin/weston --tty=2 --current-mode --continue-without-input \
                >> ${RW_MEMORY_DIR}/${WESTON_LOGFILE} || \
        nohup /usr/bin/weston --backend=vnc-backend.so \
                --modules=screen-share.so --shell=kiosk-shell.so \
                >> ${RW_MEMORY_DIR}/${WESTON_LOGFILE};
} &

# Wait for the completion of the Weston init process. In the very last turn, it
# starts sharing the screen over VNC
max_wait_cnt=0
while ! ps | grep -q [v]nc-backend && [ $max_wait_cnt -le 10 ]
do
    sleep 0.5
    max_wait_cnt=$((max_wait_cnt + 1))
done

nohup /usr/bin/tezi $DEFAULT_KBD $DEFAULT_LANG $AUTOINSTALL $FULLSCREEN \
        -platform wayland < /dev/null >> ${RW_MEMORY_DIR}/${TEZI_LOGFILE} &

It seems we already loop waiting for weston before we start the Easy Installer application. Though it might still be the case that the timing needs to be adjusted for whatever reason on your custom carrier board. Again hard to say for sure since we can’t reproduce this behavior on Toradex standard carrier boards. You’ll need to play around with it for a bit and investigate.

But I also can’t figure where to get or find the tezi_config.json.

I believe this is a file you create yourself. It should be provided via local media (i.e USB). If you check the info box in this section: Detailed Manual | Toradex Developer Center

It even states that:

Without a local media there is currently no way to provide the Installer with a custom URL. There exists a workaround documented further below.

You could also setup a server with your images via zerconf as described here: Detailed Manual | Toradex Developer Center

In this way Easy Installer would automatically seek and find your server serving your images for flashing.

Jeremias

Hi @jeremias.tx,
thanks for the fast reply :slight_smile:

first up…

You are right. I got that to work.

secondly…

This modification unfortunately doesn’t solve the problem on our custom carrier board.

thirdly…

Yea i tried that. But I didn’t get it to work.

  • tried to dump it like described here Modify the Toradex Easy Installer Image
  • tried to dump it like: dumpimage -T flat_dt -p 19 -o ramdisk tezi.itb. Also with type ramdisk - which failed. Then I mountet the image and could see the /etc/rc.local, but no matter what I did, the filesystem was always Read-Only (because its of type squashfs) so I coudn’t modify anything.
  • tried to dump it like: dumpimage -T flat_dt -p 19 -o ramdisk.zip tezi.itb. Then tried to modify the file in the archive. Tough i could opened the archive, I can’t modify anything because an error occured where is was stated “it is no archive”.

So I didn’t even get to the step where I repack anything.

Hopefully that is not too much to ask, but is it possible, that you could tell me which commands you use for:

  • dump the ramdisk?
  • mount the ramdisk?
  • and maybe the command to repack the manipulated image?

Kind Regards,
Uwe

This modification unfortunately doesn’t solve the problem on our custom carrier board.

Wait so you already tried modifying the startup script with an increased delay, and it didn’t help on your custom carrier board? That’s odd, I’m not sure what to suggest next then. Since you’re still asking about modifying the ramdisk, do you have another idea of what to try?

As for the ramdisk, you are correct it is a squashfs which are read-only by design. First of all use dumpimage to get the ramdisk out of the tezi.itb as you did before. Then install squashfs-tools on your system.

You can then use the unsquashfs utility to unpack the ramdisk in a writable form. After doing your modification you can then use mksquashfs on the unpacked ramdisk to create a new ramdisk that should have your modifications. You then need to re-pack everything as documented here: How to Modify a Toradex Easy Installer Image | Toradex Developer Center

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Hi @jeremias.tx ,
thanks again for the fast reply :slight_smile:

You misunderstood me. I tried the new EasyInstaller Version with the Fix you mentioned.

This modification was done by Toradex. Until now I didn’t get my own modification (insert a additional sleep) to work.

In the meantime I already figured/tried your suggestion with the squashfs-tools which seems to work. Unfortunately now I got the problem, that I probably didn’t configure the tezi.its file correctly. Here is the error I get.

And here is the tezi.its based on How to Modify a Toradex Easy Installer Image | Toradex Developer Center - it’s more or less the same as in the example but I had to change the parameters load, entry, and hash algo dependent on the output from dumpimage -l tezi.itb:

/dts-v1/;

/ {
    description = "U-Boot fitImage for Toradex Easy Installer";
    #address-cells = <1>;

    images {
        kernel {
            description = "Linux Kernel";
            data = /incbin/("./zImage");
            type = "kernel";
            arch = "arm64";
            os = "linux";
            compression = "gzip";
            load = <0x80200000>;
            entry = <0x80200000>;
            hash {
                algo = "sha512";
            };
        };
        fdt-0 {
            description = "Flattened Device Tree blob";
            data = /incbin/("./system.dtb");
            type = "flat_dt";
            arch = "arm64";
            compression = "none";
            hash {
                algo = "sha512";
            };
        };
        ramdisk-0 {
            description = "tezi-initramfs";
            data = /incbin/("./ramdisk");
            type = "ramdisk";
            arch = "arm64";
            os = "linux";
            compression = "none";
            hash {
                algo = "sha512";
            };
        };
    };
    configurations {
        default = "config-1";
        config-1 {
            description = "Boot Linux kernel with FDT blob + ramdisk";
            kernel = "kernel";
            fdt = "fdt-0";
            ramdisk = "ramdisk-0";
            hash {
                algo = "sha512";
            };
        };
    };
};

I used these 3 command to extract all images that later are required to repack:

dumpimage tezi.itb -T flat_dt -p 0 -o zImage
dumpimage tezi.itb -T flat_dt -p 2 -o system.dtb
dumpimage -T flat_dt -p 19 -o ramdisk tezi.itb

For the sake of completeness, here is a snippet (otherwise this post will go beyond max allowed character) of the output from dumpimage -l tezi.itb:

I will try to figure that out until your reply (with which you may help me again?)

Kind Regards,
Uwe

In the documentation example that fit-image only had 3 components. In this case as seen from your dumpimage -l tezi.itb output there are a lot more than just 3 components here. I would think the image would need to be reassembled with all of it’s parts to behave the same again.

This will probably help. Here’s the original tezi.its file for 6.7.0: https://artifacts.toradex.com/artifactory/tezi-oe-prod-frankfurt/kirkstone-6.x.y/release/7/verdin-am62/tezi/tezi-run/oedeploy/fitImage-its-verdin-am62

You can probably just copy this and modify the changed values as necessary. It’s a bit tedious but you’ll probably need to extract and re-pack all the components to match the original behavior.

Hello @buw3,

In addition to what @jeremias.tx said, we could also have a look at the hardware aspect of the issue.
As this only happens in your custom carrier board, I would be curious to understand exactly what differences it has when compared to the Toradex designs.
The idea is to have a look at the schematics to see if there is anything that may cause such problems.
If this is something that you would be open to, please let us know via support.eu@toradex.com.

Best Regards,
Bruno

Hi @jeremias.tx ,

Sorry, but I think you are wrong. The output of dumpimage -l tezi.itb in the documentation example also got a lot more than just 3 components… see the dropdown element FIT description: U-Boot fitImage on Modify the Toradex Easy Installer Image.

But I don’t get why they use dumpimage tezi.itb -T flat_dt -p 1 -o ramdisk in the example, even though the ramdisk image number is clearly 25 (not 1).
All the other components are just different device tree files which are not necessarily required (please proof me wrong).

But in my opinion everything I stated does not justify the error message:

I can’t figure where I made the mistake?!?

Kind Regards,
Uwe

Could you please reply to Bruno’s message as well. I think we should take a look again at your custom carrier board and why it exhibits this behavior with Easy Installer. This is probably a more ideal approach than trying to create a custom Easy Installer for your specific case.

Best Regards,
Jeremias

Hello @bruno.tx

Thank you, I have to discuss this internally and then will get back to you :slight_smile:

Kind Regards,
Uwe
