I noticed today that there was no build created yet for Radxa Rock 3C.

 

I found the Rock 3A config file at build/config/boards/rock-3a.conf :

 

# Rockchip RK3568 quad core 1-8GB SoC GBe eMMC USB3
BOARD_NAME="Rock 3A"
BOARDFAMILY="rk35xx"
BOOTCONFIG="rock-3a-rk3568_defconfig"
KERNEL_TARGET="legacy,current,edge"
FULL_DESKTOP="yes"
BOOT_LOGO="desktop"
BOOT_FDT_FILE="rockchip/rk3568-rock-3a.dtb"
BOOT_SCENARIO="spl-blobs"
WIREGUARD="no"
BOOT_SUPPORT_SPI="yes"
BOOT_SPI_RKSPI_LOADER="yes"
IMAGE_PARTITION_TABLE="gpt"
BOOTFS_TYPE="fat"

And copied it to build/boards/rock-3c.conf . Then modified it to

# Rockchip RK3566 quad core 1-8GB SoC GBe eMMC USB3
BOARD_NAME="Rock 3C"
BOARDFAMILY="rk35xx"
BOOTCONFIG="rock-3c-rk3566_defconfig"
KERNEL_TARGET="legacy,current,edge"
FULL_DESKTOP="yes"
BOOT_LOGO="desktop"
BOOT_FDT_FILE="rockchip/rk3566-rock-3c.dtb"
BOOT_SCENARIO="spl-blobs"
BOOT_SUPPORT_SPI="yes"
BOOT_SPI_RKSPI_LOADER="yes"
IMAGE_PARTITION_TABLE="gpt"
BOOTFS_TYPE="fat"

And was pleasantly surprised when it was able to build an image! 🙂

 

However, the booting was not so successful I get this on the UART (1500000 bps 8N1):

And no output on the HDMI.

 

Any hints on what direction to dig for getting it closer to booting would be appreciated?

The important error message there, I think, is:

** Unable to read file /dtb/rockchip/rk3566-rock-3c.dtb **

 

I am not an Armbian expert. But this sounds like you need to get hold of a dts file and put it in the right place so that it will be built as a dtb file and included in the image.

 

I think the DTS file you need is this one: https://github.com/radxa/u-boot/blob/next-dev/arch/arm/dts/rk3566-rock-3c.dts

Hmmm, no.

 

I tried to add this manually, creating a patch with this command:

 

./compile.sh CREATE_PATCHES=yes BOARD=rock-3c BRANCH=current uboot-patch

 

But when I looked the file rk3566-rock-3c.dts is already present.

 

AFAIK It gets brought in here:

 

[🌱] Fetching SHA1 of 'branch' 'refs/heads/stable-4.19-rock3' [ https://github.com/radxa/u-boot.git ]

 

So I guess there needs to be something else get the dtb file compiled. Not found it yet.

Posted

Yes I noticed that there seem to patch files for one kernel too but I think that kernel (4.19) might not be used.

 

Someone else can correct me...

 

As far as I've seen the legacy kernel is currently 5.10. 

Posted

Yes, true, but on the other hand, shouldn't it be possible to just copy the older dts files and try with those?

 

I have not worked with device tree before, but the device-tree files does seem to be kind-of kernel-version independent...?

What would happen if we tried to copy the ones from 4.19 and reuse those together with one of the newer kernels?

@Endian

 

Warning... this didn't work

 

Yeah I think so... AFAIK they are mostly independent of kernel version. The syntax could theoretically change between Kernel or driver versions. But the theory of them is that it's easier to keep them stable as abstract text... at least that's what I read somewhere.

 

So here's what I tried:

 

Start creating a kernel patch...

./compile.sh CREATE_PATCHES=yes BOARD=rock-3c BRANCH=current kernel-patch

 

Pull the DTS files from Radxa's kernel 4.19.  Think dts files might be compatible across major kernel versions.

Notes these are NOT the ones I linked above which was u-boot DTS, not Linux DTS

cd arch/arm/boot/dts
sudo curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radxa/kernel/stable-4.19-rock3/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3566.dtsi
sudo curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radxa/kernel/stable-4.19-rock3/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3566-rock-3c-camera.dtsi
sudo curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radxa/kernel/stable-4.19-rock3/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3566-rock-3c.dts

 

Copy the created patch file in place

sudo cp output/patch/kernel-rockchip64-current.patch patch/kernel/rockchip64-current

 

./compile.sh

 

Compiling...

Did you patch the Makefile so they build?

For example a patch that adds dtbs: patch/kernel/archive/meson64-6.2/boards-g12-add-spi-nor-flash-enabled-dtbs.patch

Posted

@SteeMan Thanks. no I did not.

 

I was just compiling one with that now. Using this post as a reference point.

 

I also made a mistake above (which I will delete and re-post if this all works) as I accidently put the dts files in arch/arm/boot/dts instead of arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/.

Posted

Not sure if this is helpful, but the Quartz64A also uses an RK3566 (and some other shared hardware like the RK817 PMIC/Codec) and has a working build available which might provide some insight:

https://www.armbian.com/quartz64a/

 

Of course the DTS file file for this would still be different, but it might be a closer match than the Rock3A.

Hi all,

 

I tried to build armbian for Rock 3C in the same way:

 

Make a copy of build/config/boards/rock-3a.conf

Build the image and copy it to a SD card.

Mount the SD card and add rk3566-rock-3c.dtb.

 

Unfortunately it did not boot. I did not get any further that "Starting Linux".

Hello,

 

I tried the new desktop image and it boots nicely off an SD card, I haven' tried my nvme drive yet. The desktop user experience is very smooth, so well done to everyone who made this work!

 

The ethernet port works well, but unfortunately wifi and bluetooth does not work at all, I do not even see a wifi interface if I use "ip a" (but loopback and ethernet show up).

 

Is this a case of a missing driver in Ambian? How do I add the missing driver?

 

Wifi and bluetooth works under debian (as provided by Radxa), so I ran "sudo lshw -C network" under debian and get the output below:

 

       description: Wireless interface
       physical id: a
       logical name: wlan0
       serial: 98:03:cf:d2:32:7c
       capabilities: ethernet physical wireless
       configuration: broadcast=yes driver=aicwf_sdio driverversion=5.10.160-33-rk356x multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11

 

Finally, please see this link for log data and information about my set-up etc, I notice there are some bluetooth error messages.

@north1 The current Rock 3C image is for the older board revisions with wifi 5 module. For board rev 1.4 with wifi 6 module, the driver is available as a dkms package from Radxa's github. The board uses SDIO for the module, therefore for the latest version firmware release as of writing:
 

wget -O aic8800-firmware.deb https://github.com/radxa-pkg/aic8800/releases/download/3.0%2Bgit20240116.ec460377-8/aic8800-firmware_3.0+git20240116.ec460377-8_arm64.deb
wget -O aic8800-sdio-dkms.deb https://github.com/radxa-pkg/aic8800/releases/download/3.0%2Bgit20240116.ec460377-8/aic8800-sdio-dkms_3.0+git20240116.ec460377-8_all.deb
sudo apt install linux-headers-current-rockchip64
sudo dpkg -i aic8800-firmware.deb
sudo dpkg -i aic8800-sdio-dkms.deb

 

and then reboot.

Thank you very much @Zokhoi ... That's how WiFi works !

Now the problem is that after certain updates it is necessary to do what you have indicated again ... How could this be fixed ?
