Any suggestions how to compile the kernle on M3 ? I tried to compile it on Ubuntu. best regards

@sinovoip Your entry in gitbook s also with errors too…

23

@sinovoip please put the correct files togehther to one zip-file so we can compile everything on M3

I made uImage with the topic and 2016-07-10-ubuntu-16.04-xenial-minimal-preview-bpi-m3.img. but, board does not jump to kernel address.

This is my boot log. ** Unable to read “bananapi/berryboot.img” from mmc 0:1 **

When I compare with normal boot log, it is not jump to kernel address.

I think it is related with compile environment.

If you share correct environment for compile. I will try it. (ubuntu version, gcc version and so on…)

Hi Sinovoip,

what do you mean by “After the completion of the copy Uimage to boot partition boot/BPI m3 below”

27

I have the same problem, what can i do after to compile the kernel BPI M3?Thanks

RAM配置不对，改成板子对于的内存大小

linux-sunxi\arch\arm\mach-sunxi\include\mach\sun8i\memory-sun8iw6p1.h
#define PLAT_PHYS_OFFSET         UL(0x40000000)
#ifdef CONFIG_EVB_PLATFORM
#define PLAT_MEM_SIZE            SZ_1G //SZ_2G
#else
#define PLAT_MEM_SIZE            SZ_256M
#endif
29

Hi @strongLi Are you sure of the solution. I tried to modify memory-sun8iw6p1.h as you mention above but I am still stuck on my kernel boot process. Same as @Brian_Kim the last message is:

------sun8i_smp_init_ops----37-----

Help will be appreciate. Thank you

I forget to say that I didn’t change any configuration in kernel config. I simply tried first to boot the BPI-M3 with a kernel compile by myself base on the source given from github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-M3-bsp.git

Hi! @Brian_Kim Did you succeed in booting your kernel image. I’m exactly stuck at the same step as you described:

@sinovoip are you still interest in feedback because the bsp git version for M3 didn’t work at all.

Another question: Why the kernel (3.4.39-BPI-M3-Kernel) have 5.7Mo size in ArchLinuxARM-lite-bpi-m3 2016-5-10 file and 7Mo in ubuntu-16.04-mate-desktop-beta-bpi-m3-ov8865-sd-emmc.img -2017-7-13.

uname -r give exactly the same version name but the kernel uImage size is different…

Kernel Config is exactly the same for ubuntu-16.04-mate-desktop-beta-bpi-m3-ov8865-sd-emmc.img and bsp git repository but compile kernel with git stop booting at the step describe above.

Any help would be appreciate.

Got it! for //github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-M3-bsp.git you must change the gcc compiler to gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.7-2013.04-20130415_linux

Kernel can’t boot with gcc 4.9 compilation see:
