This patch series contain fixes for Nokia RX-51 board (aka N900). After these changes it is possible to run U-Boot in qemu emulator again. And U-Boot can boot kernel image from RAM, eMMC or OneNAND memory without
problem.

But on real Nokia N900 device is U-Boot crashing in reboot loop.

I do not have serial console for Nokia N900 to debug this issue, but seems that it is related to OMAP I2C and OMAP HS MMC code. Problem is that there is no crash and even no error in qemu emulator so I cannot
debug this issue.

First problem is around /* reset lp5523 led */ code in rx51.c. On real
N900 device it generates repeating messages:

    Check if pads/pull-ups of bus are properly configured
    Timed out in wait_for_event: status=0000

When I commented that few lines all these messages disappeared. So
problem is with OMAP I2C.

I remember that somebody had serial jig for Nokia N900, could somebody
look at this reboot loop problem?

And any idea how should be OMAP I2C configured in U-Boot to correctly
work?

Maybe I will try to find some time to git bisect which change broke
U-Boot on real N900 hardware.

Took latest u-boot master, applied patches and this is the result on serial (first part is NOLO booting, I think that can be ignored) [1].

i2c_read (addr phase): pads on bus probably not configured (status=0x10)

How is that trace even possible? I built and tested u-boot here on my devices and I see the same message, but unless I am becoming blind, i2c_read() is never called from within i2c_write(). This is really suspicious.

i2c_write: timed out writig last byte!

These i2c errors are caused by

        /* reset lp5523 led */
        i2c_set_bus_num(1);

deprecated ... the board code needs cleanup ...

Yes, my first thought too!

This board needs a complete cleanup.

I converted code to CONFIG_DM_I2C and nothing was changed, issue is
still there...

Ok.

        state = 0xff;
        i2c_write(0x32, 0x3d, 1, &state, 1);
        i2c_set_bus_num(0);

Is there anything which needs to be done to initialize i2c bus 1?
Because this code is working fine on older U-Boot version.

Above code worked fine for U-Boot 2013.04, but in git version from
January 2015 it prints above error messages.

On on internet forums I see these error messages also from other OMAP3
board, e.g. beagle board.

Has somebody some working OMAP3 board? And can test if it works with recent version of U-Boot? I guess that above i2c problem would happen
also on other OMAP3 boards.

There was a conversion a while ago to dm_i2c, and I converted my board to support using the device tree during the SPL phase, and whenever I am aware any driver has driver model (DM) support, I try to convert my
board.

I have a DM3730 and the last check I did was 2020.04-rc1, and it was working

Ok, so it either OMAP3430 specific problem or N900 board specific
problem. N900 does not use driver model.

i have an OMAP3530 which is basically a 3430, and it works too. I am
guessing the issue is unique to the N900 or the fact that it's
high-security.  Neither of my boards are HS parts.  They are both GP.

N900 is HS device, but I guess that should be caused by GP vs HS
difference. Working i2c bus 0 and non-working i2c bus 1 could not be
caused by GP vs HS difference. Also I guess that omap hs mmc would be
same on GP and HS boards.
...
Before calling i2c_write(0x32, ...) I tried to call i2c_probe(0x32) and
it returned error.

If I tried to call "i2c dev 1" in U-Boot console, I got tons of errors
and basically U-Boot stopped responding.

So by above observation it looks like I2C bus num 1 does not work, but
I2C bus num 0 works fine.

Do I need to call i2c_probe(...) before calling i2c_write(...)?

And is something special needed for initializing omap i2c bus num 1?
Because from my above observation it looks like that something is
missing for bus 1 which in older u-boot version was not needed.

Now I was able to find commit which is causing above i2c problems:
"Check if pads/pull-ups of bus are properly configured"

It is d5243359e1afc957acd373dbbde1cf6c70ee5485:

      OMAP24xx I2C: Add support for set-speed
      Adds support for set-speed on the OMAP24xx I2C Adapter.
      Changes to omap24_i2c_write(...) for polling ARDY Bit from IRQ-Status.       Otherwise on a subsequent call the transfer of last byte from the
      predecessor is aborted and therefore lost. For exmaple when
      i2c_write(...) is followed by a i2c_setspeed(...) (which has to
      deactivate and activate master for changing psc,...).
      Minor cosmetical changes.

U-Boot version prior this command does not report those i2c errors.

Hannes, any idea how your patch could broke omap i2c i2c bus num 1 on
Nokia N900?

Hard to say here anything useful, as I do not have the hardware...

The above commit changes:

-               udelay(I2C_WAIT);
+               udelay(adap->waitdelay);

May you can check, if adap->waitdelay is the same as I2C_WAIT ?

Yes, it is the same value.

Ok, fine.

Anyway, I have deeply looked at that commit again and it just adds
support for omap24_i2c_setspeed and into omap24_i2c_write adds following
change:

@@ -464,6 +502,15 @@ static int omap24_i2c_write(struct i2c_adapter *adap, uchar chip, uint addr,

And this change is causing that non-functional i2c bus.

Ok, this part definetely changes behaviour in timing...

I applied revert of above change on top of the master u-boot branch and

I have looked into i2c-omap.c linux kernel driver and its transfer
function does not have any such code for waiting ARDY bit.


Correct, but this waiting seems to be described in the TRM (see Figure 18-46 and Figure 18-47), albeit for the polling mode. Though, in general flow diagrams (Figure 18-29 and Figure 18-31), there is no such loop.

Could you provide a link to the TRM?


https://www.ti.com/pdfs/wtbu/OMAP34xx_ES3.1x_PUBLIC_TRM_vZN.pdf

However, by looking to __omap24_i2c_init(), it is not clear to me what mode uboot uses as it enables almost all interrupt bits in OMAP_I2C_IE_REG and loops waiting for events at the same time. Could someone confirm if uboot uses interrupt or polling mode? As this changes the things in regards to ARDY bit a lot, IIUC.

I think, u-boot only polls the registers, while enabling all
interrupt bits ...

Ok...

Why it is there? I have not able to find any information and that
comment is strange... it looks like it was incomplete/broken? workaround
about other issue.

Hmm.. ARDY bit means:
"""
The current transaction is finished and the module registers
can be accessed.
"""


But it seems there is something weird about ARDY bit, at least in interrupt mode, see linux kernel commits cb527ede1b and 4cdbf7d346. So it seems ARDY bit shall be cleared twice.

Hmm.. yes.

Seems not to bad to me to check this bit! ... but may missing
on transaction start some prerequisite is missing for triggering
this bit? And so, this additional check only leads in a loop
going into timeout?

As you can see in log, at the first call status flags contains value
0x0100 and on all other calls it contains just 0x000 status flags.

Therefore ARDY bit is never set, but i2c transfer works fine.


What looks wrong to me is that __omap24_i2c_init() enables all interrupts in OMAP_I2C_IE_REG, however, the precondition for polling mode according to Figure 18-29 is that all interrupts shall be disabled.

Hmm... so the question why does this bit not pop up on transfer
end?


It seems it never pops out. Moreover, if we look at the logs, the first wait_for_event() seems to

yes.

timeout with status=0100, that is with BF bit set. What looks suspicions here, is that the only bit we ever see set, is the bit we don't have interrupt bit enabled for.

Pali, maybe you should try to comment the code that sets interrupt bits in __omap24_i2c_init() (the block that starts with "if (ip_rev == OMAP_I2C_REV_V1)") and see if it makes any difference. Also, maybe add more traces in __omap24_i2c_write() to see which exactly wait_for_event() call times out.

May worth a try.

More mystically is, that it works fine for Pali on bus 0 but
makes problems on bus 1 ... !?

Pali: Do you have also on bus 0 i2c writes?

I just can speculate that adding this polling ARDY bit loop
changes the timing... and fixed an underlying bug, yes...

but if this bit never pop up, there must come the printf
"i2c_write: timed out writig last byte!" for each i2c transfer.


And this is what happens, we have that once, as we write only one byte to bus 1.

Hannes may you can check if this is the case for you?

why does nobody claimed that this message pops up in the last 5 years?


I can confirm I see it on the 2 devices I tested here.

What is worse, is that writing on bus 1 does not fail every time. I increased I2C_TIMEOUT to 100000 (the value from the TRM) and it seems now after power-cycle, write succeeds almost every time, however, after a reset command from u-boot, it usually fails. And with that increased timeout,when it fails I see:

Check if pads/pull-ups of bus are properly configured
i2c_read (addr phase): pads on bus probably not configured (status=0x10)

message 5 times during the failing write.

How we end up there, is a mystery to me.

Ivo
