054790dclaimed the vendor aligns FIT sub-images to 0x800 and made that a build gate. Both were wrong, and the reasoning was thin: two payloads from one build, generalised into an invariant. What U-Boot actually requires. IMAGE_ALIGN_SIZE is 512 (include/image.h:955-958) and the read is blk_off = (FIT_ALIGN(fdt_totalsize) + offset) / blksz (arch/arm/mach-rockchip/fit.c:331), a truncating divide by the 512-byte eMMC block. So the metadata size must be a multiple of 512 -- otherwise FIT_ALIGN rounds it up and EVERY payload is read late, including ones whose own position is perfectly aligned -- and each data-position must be a multiple of 512. Nothing in the FIT or RESC path references 2048. Why the 2048 gate was actively harmful: of the eight boot.img files on this machine, four are 512-aligned but sit at data-position % 2048 = 1536, including vendor RELEASE_TEST builds that boot. The gate would have rejected images the vendor shipped. 0x800 is the vendor's -p value -- the file position of the FIRST payload -- not an alignment;054790dmoved it into the -B slot. And it broke the build inside the SDK. mk-bootimg.sh resolves mkimage with a bare `command -v`, project/build.sh:64 prepends the SDK tool directory to PATH, and the SDK vendors mkimage 2017.09, which has no -B and exits 255 with "invalid option -- 'B'" under set -euo pipefail. The 6.18 image built only because it was made from a normal shell that found host mkimage 2025.01. The flag is now feature-detected; the vendor packer 512-aligns natively, so omitting it there is correct rather than a fallback. 9387cff's -B 0x200 was right, and better derived than054790dcredited: the proven image's resource sits at 8748544, a multiple of 512 but not of 1024 or 2048, which pins the alignment at exactly 512 rather than bounding it. The gate now asserts what U-Boot enforces -- metadata % 512 and every data-position % 512 -- and the embedded-data guard drops from 65536 to >= 4096 to match FIT_FDT_MAX_SIZE (SZ_4K, fit.c:24). At 65536 a 5000-byte header passed the build and returned "No fit blob" on a panel. The already-flashed 6.18 boot.img is unaffected: 2048 is a multiple of 512, so it satisfies the real requirement, which is why it booted.

# Package a bootable boot.img from a kernel this SDK built.
|
|
#
|
|
# build-kernel.sh produces a zImage and a dtb; this turns them into the image
|
|
# the board's U-Boot will actually boot, which was the last thing keeping the
|
|
# device build tied to the vendor SDK. The format is not negotiable and was
|
|
# established the hard way during M2 bring-up (kernel/docs/m2-boot-on-c8a3.md):
|
|
#
|
|
# - EXTERNAL-DATA FIT (`mkimage -E -p 0x800`). The FDT metadata stays tiny and
|
|
# the kernel/fdt/resource payloads are appended after it. An ordinary
|
|
# embedded-data FIT is rejected outright: "FIT: No fit blob".
|
|
# - A `resource` MULTI SUB-IMAGE IS MANDATORY. Rockchip's U-Boot reads the DTB
|
|
# over its RESC: path from a resource image holding `rk-kernel.dtb` (plus
|
|
# any boot logos). Without one: "Failed to load DTB, ret=-19".
|
|
# - SYSMEM SENTINEL LOAD ADDRESSES: fdt load 0xffffff00, kernel load/entry
|
|
# 0xffffff01. These tell U-Boot's sysmem to place the images itself. Real
|
|
# low addresses collide and come back as "No fit blob".
|
|
#
|
|
# The board's U-Boot has CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE off, so the image is not signed.
|
|
#
|
|
# Usage:
|
|
# mk-bootimg.sh --kernel zImage --dtb rv1106-warden.dtb --out boot.img
|
|
# [--logo FILE] [--logo-kernel FILE] [--logo-recovery FILE]

# - SUB-IMAGE ALIGNMENT (`-B 0x200`). `-p` places only the FIRST payload; the
|
|
# rest are packed contiguously. U-Boot reads each with
|
|
# `blk_off = (FIT_ALIGN(fdt_totalsize) + offset) / blksz` (fit.c:331), a
|
|
# truncating divide by the 512-byte eMMC block, where FIT_ALIGN rounds to
|
|
# IMAGE_ALIGN_SIZE = 512 (include/image.h:955-958). So TWO things must hold:
|
|
# the metadata size must be a multiple of 512, or FIT_ALIGN(T) != T and
|
|
# EVERY payload is read late by the difference; and each data-position must
|
|
# be a multiple of 512, or the divide drops the remainder.
|
|
#
|
|
# Measured: without -B this script emitted the kernel at data-position
|
|
# 0x9A94 (% 512 = 148) with metadata 1064 (% 512 = 40) -- both faults at
|
|
# once. flare-edge 9387cff hit exactly this on hardware: "resource: sha256

# Bad hash" then "No resource file: logo.bmp", fixed by -B 0x200 and

# 512, NOT 2048. An earlier revision of this comment claimed the vendor
|
|
# aligns to 0x800 and gated on it. That was drawn from two payloads in one
|
|
# build. Across the vendor's own release images on this machine, every
|
|
# data-position is a multiple of 512 and only some are multiples of 2048
|
|
# (four of eight RELEASE_TEST boot.img files sit at % 2048 = 1536), so a
|
|
# 2048 gate rejects images the vendor shipped and U-Boot boots. 0x800 is the

|
|
# alignment.
