Nezha is a SBC based on Allwinner D1. This is a placeholder page to collect all information about running Fedora on Nezha. Currently D1 is not officially supported by Fedora.

Simple HOWTO

Prebuild Image

We have made a prebuild image for Allwinner D1: Fedora-riscv64-d1-developer-xfce-with-esp-Rawhide-latest-sda.raw.zst

For booting it on D1, what you need to do just:

Decompress

unzstd  Fedora-riscv64-d1-developer-xfce-with-esp-Rawhide-latest-sda.raw.zst

Flash into a SD card (>= 16GB)

sudo wipefs -a /dev/sdX
sudo dd if=Fedora-riscv64-d1-developer-xfce-with-esp-Rawhide-latest-sda.raw of=/dev/sdX status=progress bs=4M

insert the SD card and power up

  • default display is LCD (vertical):
  • (optional) switch display to HDMI (1080p mode, vertical)
cd /sys/kernel/debug/dispdbg

Smaeul's REPO

Tekkaman REPOs for Fedora Image

Firmware Build order

SPL(Boot0)

boot0 or SPL (Secondary Program Loader) which the first stage after BootROM, it is responsible for initializing DRAM and loading next stage firmware from storage(Flash or SD).

Using Smaeul SPL directly.

Build binary
git clone https://github.com/smaeul/sun20i_d1_spl
pushd sun20i_d1_spl
git checkout origin/mainline
make CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- p=sun20iw1p1 mmc
popd
Flash to SD card
pushd sun20i_d1_spl
sudo dd if=nboot/boot0_sdcard_sun20iw1p1.bin of=/dev/sdX bs=512 seek=16

OpenSBI

RISC-V Open Source Supervisor Binary Interface, like arm-TF

Using Smaeul's patches, but rebase to the latest upstream OpenSBI, and fix some issue.

Tekkaman's OpenSBI REPO

Build binary
git clone https://github.com/tekkamanninja/opensbi -b allwinner_d1
pushd opensbi
CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- PLATFORM=generic FW_PIC=y BUILD_INFO=y make
popd

The build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin will be used to make u-boot.toc1 below.

U-boot

Using Smaeul's patches, but enable more features and add some default env for auto-booting into GRUB, and also rebase to the latest upstream U-boot.

Tekkaman's U-boot REPO

Build binary
git clone https://github.com/tekkamanninja/u-boot -b allwinner_d1
pushd u-boot
make CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- ARCH=riscv nezha_defconfig
make CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- ARCH=riscv menuconfig
make CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- ARCH=riscv u-boot.bin u-boot.dtb
popd

The u-boot.bin and u-boot.dtb will be used to make u-boot.toc1 below.

Build u-boot.toc1

  • toc1.cfg:
[opensbi]
file = fw_dynamic.bin
addr = 0x40000000
[dtb]
file = u-boot.dtb
addr = 0x44000000
[u-boot]
file = u-boot.bin
addr = 0x4a000000
  • build command:
pushd u-boot
cp ${PATH_TO_TOC1_CFG}/toc1.cfg ${PATH_TO_OPENSBI}/fw_dynamic.bin .
tools/mkimage -T sunxi_toc1 -d toc1.cfg  u-boot.toc1
popd

Flash u-boot.toc1 to SD card

pushd u-boot
sudo dd if=u-boot.toc1 of=/dev/sdX bs=512 seek=32800

GRUB for RISC-V

Please reference to this page: Architectures/RISC-V/GRUB2

You can build a grubriscv64.efi by following the page above. Then put it into the /EFI/ dir of the EFI partition of SD card.

Some example files in the boot partition:

/boot/uEnv.txt

bootcmd=load mmc 0:2 0x58000000 /EFI/fedora/grubriscv64.efi; bootefi 0x58000000
bootcmd_mmc0=devnum=0; run mmc_boot


/grub.cfg

set default=0
set timeout_style=menu
set timeout=3

set debug="linux,loader,mm"
set term="vt100"

menuentry 'Fedora vmlinux-5.15.0-rc1' {
        linux /vmlinuz-5.15.0-rc1 earlyprintk=sunxi-uart,0x02500000 console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 loglevel=8  root=/dev/mmcblk0p4 selinux=0 rhgb LANG=en_US.UTF-8
        devicetree /sun20i-d1-nezha.dtb
	initrd /initramfs-5.15.0-rc1.img
}

Linux kernel from Allwinner

sources_with_defconfig_and_patches

Linux kernel for Nezha D1 (upstreaming, WIP)

Using the patches from Smaeul/Ren Guo(T-HEAD)/Allwinner Engineers, enable almost all the features for Fedora,and also rebase to the latest upstream kernel master branch.

How to Build RPM package for D1

using rpmbuild on QEMU

How to boot Fedora on QEMU, please reference Architectures/RISC-V/Build Bootable Image#Run_Fedora_on_QEMU

  • Boot into Fedora on QEMU, then:
  1. prepare directory tree: Put spec file to /rpmbuild/SPECS and all source files to /rpmbuild/SOURCES
  2. For building RPM package:
#From spec file
$ rpmbuild -ba ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/pakcage.spec

#'''OR''' to build from an existing SRPM file:
$ rpmbuild -ra package.src.rpm

Please reference to How to Create a GNU Hello World RPM Package for more RPM info.

using mock with Qemu usermod

We also can build riscv64 RPMS on x86_64 machine by mock and Qemu usermode.[WIP]

How to Build your own Fedora Remix Image

Please reference to RISC-V: Build Bootable Image

How to make D1 as a Koji Builder

If we have already deployed a koji hub(like openkoji and oepkg),then we can add a Nezha D1 as koji builder.

For example:

Please follow the simple instruction below:

  • NEED: koji CA certificate and builder authentication certificate: They are provided by koji hub admin.
  • Install necessary packages
# dnf install koji-builder
  • Modifying /etc/kojid.conf
  1. server=<koji hub XMLRPC server URL>
  2. topurl=<koji HTT file share URL>
  3. allowed_scms=<SCM repo rules>
  4. cert=<builder certificate>
  5. serverca=<koji CA certificate>
  • Trust koji hub's CA cert
cp koji_ca_cert.crt /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/
update-ca-trust
  • add host on koji hub (operated by koji hub admin)
koji add-host <hostname> riscv64
#The *hostname* should be same in authentication certificate.
  • Enable and start kojid
systemctl enable --now kojid
  • Verify koji builder online on koji hub (operated by koji hub admin):
koji list-hosts
# After initialization: The new added builder's status should be ready in the list.
  • NOTICE:* builder won't ready until free space on /var/lib/mock is greater than 8GiB, and /var/lib/mock on NFS is not supported. Thus, using a high capacity SD card for builder and resize root file system to adapt all free space on SD is necessary.
