Hi Myles, Thank you for hint. I found this place too. Apparently it is not correct for vx800 platform.
I tried to modify this output in src/boot/hardwaremain.c to have different POST code. And I still have the same sequence "00"->''10"->"80" after complete rebuild of the image. Ok. It looks that I need more understanding about what is the sequence of execution of coreboot. Here is the quote from documentation/POSTCODES ---------------------------------------- 0x10 Entry into protected mode 0x01 Entry into 'crt0.s' reset code jumps to here 0x11 Start copying LinuxBIOS to RAM with decompression if compressed 0x12 Copy/decompression finished jumping to RAM 0x80 Entry into LinuxBIOS in RAM 0x13 Entry into c_start 0xfe Pre call to hardwaremain() 0x39 Console is initialized 0x40 Console boot message succeeded 0x66 Devices have been enumerated 0x88 Devices have been configured 0x89 Devices have been enabled 0xf8 Entry into elf boot 0xf3 Jumping to payload ---------------------------------------- From this quote I see that boot sequence for vx800 lacks decompression/copy stages and goes directly to entry in RAM. Supposedly code 0x80 is outputted in function hardwaremain which called from c_start.S. But I see in sources that some motherboards/northbridges have their own version of hardwaremain function. vx800 has one too. But it is in examples and looks that it is not used. So my question is: What is the sequence of coreboot start-up for 32-bits x86 after entry32.inc (post code 0x10). What code is executed next before hardwaremain. Thank you, Konstantin Lazarev. ________________________________ From: Myles Watson <[email protected]> To: Konstantin Lazarev <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, October 22, 2009 8:04:49 PM Subject: Re: [coreboot] Post code 0x80 On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at 6:29 PM, Konstantin Lazarev <[email protected]> wrote: Hello, > > > >I am working on booting up VIA VX800 board with coreboot. >I have coreboot (r4824) stuck on POST code 0x80 (sequence was "00" -> "10" -> >"80") with this board. >Could somebody please let me know where (in which source file in coreboot) >this code is outputted in port 0x80? src/boot/hardwaremain.c, right before console_init. Hopefully you'll quickly get to the point where you can use serial output, it's much more informative. Thanks, Myles
