U-Boot, Kernel and the Devicetree

A current Kernel and the kernel source is require to build the AXIS kernel module. The Devicetree is used by the kernel to identify the AXIS hardware. While U-Boot tools are used when building the kernel to package it into the finial uImage file.

Dependencies

Install the latest Vivado from Xilinx, as of writing the current version is Vivado 2015.4.

Clone the Xilinx u-boot and Linux kernel repos.

git clone https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx.git
git clone https://github.com/Xilinx/u-boot-xlnx.git

The following system decencies are needed to enable the Vivado cross compile tool chain to compile the u-boot and kernel.

Ubuntu

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386
sudo apt-get install device-tree-compiler

CentOS 6.6

sudo yum install /lib/ld-linux.so.2
sudo yum install dtc

Set Environmental Variables

. /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2015.4/settings64.sh
export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-xilinx-linux-gnueabi-
export ARCH=arm
export PATH=$PWD/u-boot-xlnx/tools:$PATH

Compile U-Boot

Select the Zynq platform your system will target, for example zynq_zc706_config or zynq_zed_config etc.

cd u-boot-xlnx
make zynq_zc706_config
make

Compile Kernel

Use menuconfig to customize the kernel with extra drives, e.g., USB camera modules etc. Even if not changing the default configuration the menuconfig should still be entered to ensure config files are written.

cd linux-xlnx
make xilinx_zynq_defconfig
make menuconfig
make UIMAGE_LOADADDR=0x8000 uImage

Compile Devicetree

Edit the Zynq dts file and add the AXIS node.

make zynq-zc706.dtb
