Bug ID: 15973
Summary: imx8m bootloader image generation broken since update
to imx-mkimage 6.1.36_2.1.0
Product: buildroot
Version: 2024.02
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: Other
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]Target Milestone: ---
imx-mkimage 6.1.36_2.1.0 includes this commit
https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-mkimage/commit/5a0faefc223e51e088433663b6e7d6fbce89bf59
which inserts an additional data structure in the generated image. The external data position passed to (the uboot) mkimage in board/freescale/common/imx/imx8-bootloader-prepare.sh needs to be adjusted accordingly, so '-p 0x5000' instead of '-p 0x3000'. You can see that same adjustment being made in the soc.mak file in the commit reference.
I have only tested this on an i.MX8M Nano DDR4 EVK board, but expect it applies to all i.MX8M boards that use imx-mkimage to generate their bootloader image.
This bug first appeared in the 2023.11 release.

--- Comment #1 from Wojciech Niziński <[email protected]> --- Bumped imx-mkimage from lf-5.10.72_2.2.0 to lf-6.1.36-2.1.0 in commit:
https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/commit/package/imx-mkimage?id=72de7890233026f020de4aba3e8e86c156e55773
introduces i.MX9 support. Now all i.MX8M? based targets are broken (boards using 'board/freescale/common/imx/imx8-bootloader-prepare.sh' to generate boot image).

--- Comment #2 from Arnout Vandecappelle <[email protected]> ---
The initial report by Martin Whitaker proposes a fix, but I don't fully understand what the fix is (and I anyway don't have any imx8 board to test it on). So can someone provide a patch?

Can confirm that the patch fixes the issue for IMX8MM too.
