About booting an Image

Hi Sasi,

How to generate preloader ?

--- Quote End ---

The Cyclone V and Arria V Preloader build flow

• Copies the generic preloader source code into <bsp directory>/ubootsocfpga

• Copies the generated BSP files and hardware handoff files to the source directory in <bsp_directory /uboot-socfpga/board/altera/socfpga _<device>

• Configures the compiler tools to target an SoC FPGA

• Compiles the source files in <bsp directory>/uboot-socfpga with the userspecified cross compiler (specified in the BSP settings) and stores the generated preloader binary files in <bsp_directory>/uboot - socfpga/spl

• Converts the preloader binary file to a preloader image, <bsp_directory>/preloader- mkpimage.bin, with the mkpimage tool

The makefile contains the following targets:

• make all – compiles the preloader

• make clean – deletes preloader-mkpimage.bin from the <bsp directory>

• make clean-all – deletes <bsp directory>, including the source files in the

directory

Where can we get BSP editor?

BSP settings, which can be accessed from either the Graphical User Interface application (bsp-editor) or

From the command line tools (bsp-create-settings, bsp-update-settings, bsp-query-settings).

For detailed steps refer below link.
