OS: Ubuntu-22.04 (PC or Windows WLS)

1. Setting Up Environment

• Install the required packages on Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt install make bison flex python3-dev libssl-dev swig
sudo apt install u-boot-tools
sudo apt install qemu-user-static

• Create top folder:

mkdir ATUM_A5_V1.2.sdmmc
cd ATUM_A5_V1.2.sdmmc
export TOP_FOLDER=`pwd`

• Download and setup the the toolchain as follows:

cd $TOP_FOLDER
wget https://developer.arm.com/-/media/Files/downloads/gnu/11.2-2022.02/binrel\
/gcc-arm-11.2-2022.02-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu.tar.xz
tar xf gcc-arm-11.2-2022.02-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu.tar.xz
rm -f gcc-arm-11.2-2022.02-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu.tar.xz
export PATH=`pwd`/gcc-arm-11.2-2022.02-x86_64-aarch64-none-linux-gnu/bin:$PATH
export ARCH=arm64
export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-linux-gnu-

2. Build Arm Trusted Firmware

cd $TOP_FOLDER
rm -rf arm-trusted-firmware
git clone -b QPDS24.1_REL_AGILEX5_GSRD_PR https://github.com/altera-opensource/arm-trusted-firmware arm-trusted-firmware
cd arm-trusted-firmware
make -j $(nproc) PLAT=agilex5 bl31 
cd ..
The following files is created:
$TOP_FOLDER/arm-trusted-firmware/build/agilex5/release/bl31.bin (to used for u-boot.itb generation)
Edit

3. Build U-Boot

cd $TOP_FOLDER 
rm -rf u-boot-socfpga 
git clone -b atuma5_v1.1 https://github.com/terasic/u-boot-socfpga u-boot-socfpga 
cd u-boot-socfpga 
make mrproper 
cp atuma5.config .config
# link to ATF 
ln -s ../arm-trusted-firmware/build/agilex5/release/bl31.bin 
make -j $(nproc) 
The following files is created:
$TOP_FOLDER/u-boot-socfpga/u-boot.itb
$TOP_FOLDER/u-boot-socfpga/spl/u-boot-spl-dtb.hex
Edit

4. Creating the Boot Script

cd $TOP_FOLDER 
rm -rf uboot-script && mkdir uboot-script && cd uboot-script
wget https://releases.rocketboards.org/2023.12/qspi/agilex5/agilex5_uboot.txt
wget https://releases.rocketboards.org/2021.11/uboot-script/agilex/uboot_script.its
mv agilex5_uboot.txt uboot.txt 
nano uboot.txt # content see bloew
mkimage -f uboot_script.its boot.scr.uimg
cd ..

uboot.txt

echo "Trying to boot Linux from device ${target}";

if test ${target} = "mmc0"; then
        echo "Found kernel in mmc0";        
        mmc rescan;
        fatload mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr_r} Image;
        fatload mmc 0:1 ${fdt_addr_r} socfpga_agilex5_terasic.dtb;
        setenv bootargs "console=ttyS0,115200 root=${mmcroot} rw rootwait";
        booti ${kernel_addr_r} - ${fdt_addr_r};
        exit;
fi

The following files is created: $TOP_FOLDER/uboot-script/boot.scr.uimg Edit </pre>

5. Build Linux Kernel

cd $TOP_FOLDER 
rm -rf linux-socfpga
git clone --filter=tree:0 -b atuma5_v1.2 https://github.com/terasic/linux-socfpga linux-socfpga 
cd linux-socfpga 
cp atuma5.config .config
make -j $(nproc) Image && make intel/socfpga_agilex5_atuma5.dtb 

make -j $(nproc) modules

make -j $(nproc) modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=modules_install
rm -rf modules_install/lib/modules/*/build
rm -rf modules_install/lib/modules/*/source

The following files is created:

• $TOP_FOLDER/linux-socfpga/arch/arm64/boot/Image
• $TOP_FOLDER/linux-socfpga/arch/arm64/boot/dts/intel/socfpga_agilex5_atuma5.dtb
