Firmware of PCIe controller for Renesas R-Car V4H
|
||
|
|
=================================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Renesas R-Car V4H (r8a779g0) has a PCIe controller, requiring a specific
|
||
|
|
firmware download during startup.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However, Renesas currently cannot distribute the firmware free of charge.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The firmware file "104_PCIe_fw_addr_data_ver1.05.txt" (note that the file name
|
||
|
|
might be different between different datasheet revisions) can be found in the
|
||
|
|
datasheet encoded as text, and as such, the file's content must be converted
|
||
|
|
back to binary form. This can be achieved using the following example script:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ awk '/^\s*0x[0-9A-Fa-f]{4}\s+0x[0-9A-Fa-f]{4}/ { print substr($2,5,2) substr($2,3,2) }' \
|
||
|
|
104_PCIe_fw_addr_data_ver1.05.txt | \
|
||
|
|
xxd -p -r > rcar_gen4_pcie.bin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once the text content has been converted into a binary firmware file, verify
|
||
|
|
its checksum as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sha1sum rcar_gen4_pcie.bin
|
||
|
|
1d0bd4b189b4eb009f5d564b1f93a79112994945 rcar_gen4_pcie.bin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The resulting binary file called "rcar_gen4_pcie.bin" should be placed in the
|
||
|
|
"/lib/firmware" directory before the driver runs.
