-# Renesas Porter Hardware setup
-
-Here is a non exhaustive list of hardware parts that could be used to setup the Porter board development environment:
-
-* Porter board with its power supply
-* mini USB-A cable for serial console
-* USB 2.0 Hub
-* USB keyboard
-* USB mouse
-* Ethernet cable
-* HDMI type A (full size HDMI) cable and associated display
-* micro-SD Card (at least 4GB)
-* USB touch screen device like the GeChic 1502i
-
-For more information and latest news, please check [Here][R-car Porter]:
-
-The following documents may also be helpful:
-
-* Porter Hardware Manual [Link][Porter HardwareManual]
-* Porter (Rev B) Setup Manual [Link][PORTER SetupManual]
-
-## Building the AGL Demo Platform for Renesas Porter
-
-Before set up Build Environment you need to setup the proprietary drivers.
-
-* Download Renesas graphics drivers with a "click through" license from Renesas website [Link][rcar demoboard]
-
-under the Target hardware: R-Car H2, M2 and E2 section.
-
-**Note**:
-
-* that you have to register with a free account on MyRenesas and accept the license condition before downloading them.
- The operation is fast and simple but nevertheless mandatory to access evaluation of non open-source drivers for free.
- Once you registered, you can download two zip files.
-* The files must be store into directory ~/Downloads (or $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR).
-
-Here after is an example of their names:
-
-```bash
-chmod a+r $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR/*.zip
-ls -l $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR
-total 8220

-```
-
-## Set up Build Environment
-
-* To build AGL demo platform for Renesas Porter board use machine **porter** and feature **agl-demo**:
-
-```bash
-cd $AGL_TOP
-source meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -m porter -b build agl-devel agl-demo agl-netboot agl-appfw-smack
-```
-
-**Note**:
-
-* **IMPORTANT** read the log to be sure to have any error during your setup.
-
-In case the graphical drivers were not found, you could notice an error message as follow:
-
-```bash
-[snip]
---- fragment /ssd/agl2016-for-kickstart-update/meta-agl/templates/machine/porter/50_setup.sh
-/ssd/agl2016-for-kickstart-update /ssd/agl2016-for-kickstart-update/build
-The graphics and multimedia acceleration packages for the R-Car M2 Porter board can be download from :
- <http://www.renesas.com/secret/r_car_download/rcar_demoboard.jsp>
-
-These 2 files from there should be store in your'/home/users/Downloads' directory.
- R-Car_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-20151228.zip
- R-Car_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-20151228.zip
-Copying gfx drivers and multimedia packages for 'porter' failed.
-ERROR: Script /ssd/agl2016-for-kickstart-update/build/conf/setup.sh failed
-OK
-Generating setup file: /ssd/agl2016-for-kickstart-update/build/agl-init-build-env ... OK
------------- aglsetup.sh: Done
-[snip]
-```
-
-* If you encounters this issue, or any other unwanted behavior, you can fix the error mentioned and then clean up by removing the “$AGL_TOP/build” directory then launch the procedure again.
-* After this command, the working directory is changed to $AGL_TOP/build.
-* Users may want to check that the board is correctly selected in the environment:
-
-```bash
-grep -w -e "^MACHINE =" $AGL_TOP/build/conf/local.conf
- MACHINE = "porter"
-```
-
-Configure for Release or Development:
-Development images require extra tools for developer convenience, in particular:
-
-* a debugger (gdb)
-* some tweaks, including a disabled root password
-* a SFTP server
-* the TCF Agent for easier application deployment and remote debugging
-* ...
-
-We explicitely activate these Debug facilities by specifying the “agl-devel agl-netboot” feature.
-
-### Build your image
-
-The process to build an image is simple:
-
-```bash
-bitbake agl-demo-platform
-```
-
-Once done, what may take up to few hours, you should get the end result in the directory:
-
-```bash
-$AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/porter.
-```
-
-**Note**:
-
-* In case of failure of the build it is safe to first check that the Linux distribution chosen for your host has been validated for version 2.0 of Yocto.
-
-## Booting AGL Demo Platform on Renesas Porter using a micro-SD card
-
-**Note**:
-
-Porter boards have 2 SD slots:
-
-* one for SD cards
-* another one for micro-SD cards.
-
-At the time of writing, we didn't succeed to boot a board using the SD slot with the current kernel (3.10):
-
-* Only the micro-SD slot was usable.
-
-To boot the board using a micro-SD card, there are two operations that should be done prior to first initial boot:
-
-* Create a SD-card with one ext3 partition,
-* Set up the board to boot on the SD-card.
-
-Then for each build, the SD-card is merely rewritten and used to boot the configured board.
-
-## Deployment
-
-### Format the SD-card on the host
-
-* Plug microSD card and get its associated device by either running *dmesg | tail -15* or *lsblk*, for example:
-
-```bash
-dmesg | tail -15
-
- [ 1971.462160] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00
- [ 1971.462277] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] No Caching mode page found
- [ 1971.462278] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through
- [ 1971.463870] sdc: sdc1 sdc2
-```
-
-Here, the SD-card is attached to the device sdc.
-
-```bash
-lsblk
-
- NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
- sda 8:0 0 167,7G 0 disk
- ├─sda1 8:1 0 512M 0 part /boot/efi
- ├─sda2 8:2 0 159,3G 0 part /
- └─sda3 8:3 0 7,9G 0 part [SWAP]
- sdb 8:16 0 931,5G 0 disk
- └─sdb1 8:17 0 931,5G 0 part /media/storage
- sdc 8:32 1 14,9G 0 disk
- ├─sdc1 8:33 1 40M 0 part
- └─sdc2 8:34 1 788M 0 part
-```
-
-**Note**:
-
-* **WARNING** This is a critical operation, each computer is different and device can change during time, so do this operation each time you incert the microSD card.
-* In the **example** above, we see the first SATA drive as 'sda'.
-* In the **example** above, 'sdc' corresponds to the microSD card.*
-
-### Format the SD-card
-
-Create EXT3 partition on the SD-card using fdisk and set the MBR.
-
-* For **example**, if the microSD card is */dev/sdc*:
-
-```bash
-sudo fdisk /dev/sdc
-
- Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.27.1).
- Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
- Be careful before using the write command.
-
-
- Command (m for help): o
- Created a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0x96e5850d.
-
- Command (m for help): n
- Partition type
- p primary (0 primary, 0 extended, 4 free)
- e extended (container for logical partitions)
- Select (default p):
-
- Using default response p.
- Partition number (1-4, default 1):
- First sector (2048-31291391, default 2048):
- Last sector, +sectors or +size{K,M,G,T,P} (2048-31291391, default 31291391):
-
- Created a new partition 1 of type 'Linux' and of size 14,9 GiB.
-
- Command (m for help): w
- The partition table has been altered.
- Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
- Syncing disks.
-```
-
-Initialize the ext3 partition using “mke2fs”:
-
-* for **example** if the microSD card is associated with *sdc*:
-
-```bash
-sudo mke2fs -t ext3 /dev/sdc1
-
- mke2fs 1.42.13 (17-May-2015)
- Creating filesystem with 3911168 4k blocks and 979200 inodes
- Filesystem UUID: 690804b9-6c7d-4bbb-b1c1-e9357efabc52
- Superblock backups stored on blocks:
- 32768, 98304, 163840, 229376, 294912, 819200, 884736, 1605632, 2654208
-
- Allocating group tables: done
- Writing inode tables: done
- Creating journal (32768 blocks): done
- Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: done
-```
-
-### Copying the built image to the SD-card
-
-Insert the SD-card into your build host:
-
-* Your desktop system may probably offer a choice to mount the SD-card automatically in some directory.
-* In the next sample code, we'll suppose that the SD-card mount directory is stored in the variable $SDCARD.
-* For example **example** the microSD card is associated with device *sdc*:
-
-```bash
-export SDCARD=/tmp/agl
-mkdir -p $SDCARD
-sudo mount /dev/sdc1 $SDCARD
-```
-
-Go to your build directory:
-
-```bash
-cd $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/porter
-```
-
-Make sure the filesystem is empty:
-
-```bash
-sudo rm -rf ${SDCARD:-bad_dir}/*
-```
-
-*** IMPORTANT ***
-Verify that **tar** version is 1.28 or newer:
-
-```bash
-tar --version
-tar (GNU tar) 1.28
-[snip]
-```
-
-If your distribution is up to date on this dependency, you can use the host tool directly. Let's define a variable for the following steps:
-
-```bash
-TAR=$(which tar)
-```
-
-Otherwise, a native up-to-date version of tar is also generated while building AGL distribution:
-
-```bash
-TAR=$AGL_TOP/build/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/tar-native/tar
-$TAR --version
-tar (GNU tar) 1.28
-[snip]
-```
-
-Copy Automotive Grade Linux (AGL) files onto the mircoSD card by extracting the root file system archive:
-
-```bash
-sudo $TAR --extract --xz --numeric-owner --preserve-permissions --preserve-order --totals \
- --xattrs-include='*' --directory=$SDCARD --file=agl-demo-platform-porter.tar.xz
-```
-
-Copy Kernel Image and Device Tree Blob file into the **boot** directory:
-
-```bash
-sudo cp uImage+dtb /tmp/agl/boot/
-```
-
-Ensure the changes have been written to the disk:
-
-```bash
-sync
-```
-
- Unmount the micrSD card:
-
-```bash
-sudo umount $SDCARD
-```
-
-### Booting the board
-
-Turn the board off using the power switch.
-Insert the microSD-card into the appropriate slot.
-Verify that you have plugged in, at least, the following:
-
-* External monitor on HDMI port
-* Input device (keyboard, mouse, touchscreen...) on USB port.
-
-Turn the board on using the power switch.
-After a few seconds, you'll see the AGL splash screen on the display and you'll be able to log in on the console terminal (login is 'root', no password):
-
-```bash
-Automotive Grade Linux 2.0.0 porter ttySC6
-
-porter login:
-```
-
-### To access the shell (serial)
-
-Install a serial client on your computer.
-This can be “screen”, “picocom”, “minicom”.
-The lighter of the 3 is “picocom” (it has less dependencies).
-Plug a USB cable from your computer to the serial CP2102 USB port of the porter board (near the power switch and fan connector).
-With “dmesg” you can check the device created for the serial link.
-To get it, you must switch the board on.
-For example:
-
-```bash
-dmesg | tail
- [609575.767056] usb 2-1.6.4: new full-speed USB device number 21 using ehci-pci
- [609575.854083] usb 2-1.6.4: New USB device found, idVendor=10c4, idProduct=ea60
- [609575.854089] usb 2-1.6.4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
- [609575.854100] usb 2-1.6.4: Product: CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller
- [609575.854102] usb 2-1.6.4: Manufacturer: Silicon Labs
- [609575.854104] usb 2-1.6.4: SerialNumber: 0001
- [609575.990209] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial
- [609575.990221] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic
- [609575.990229] usbserial: USB Serial support registered for generic
- [609575.995184] usbcore: registered new interface driver cp210x
- [609575.995198] usbserial: USB Serial support registered for cp210x
- [609575.995239] cp210x 2-1.6.4:1.0: cp210x converter detected
- [609576.068184] usb 2-1.6.4: reset full-speed USB device number 21 using ehci-pci
- [609576.154125] usb 2-1.6.4: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB0
-```
-
-The link is attached to the device /dev/ttyUSB0.
-It is time to launch your serial client.
-Example:
-
-```bash
-picocom -b 38400 /dev/ttyUSB0
-```
-
-or
-
-```bash
-minicom -b 38400 -D /dev/ttyUSB0
-```
-
-or
-
-```bash
-screen /dev/ttyUSB0 38400
-```
-
-Power on the Porter board to see a shell on the console
-
-```bash

-```
-
-### U-Boot configurations
-
-Follow the steps below to configure boot from microSD card and to set screen resolution:
-
-* Power up the board and, using your preferred terminal emulator.
-* Type a character to abort the boot and enter the U-boot menu.
-* Type **print** to check the environment:
-
-```bash
-print
-```
-
-* Verify that the ethaddr environment variable is set to the same MAC address value shown on the label on top of the RJ45 Ethernet connector.
-* If not please set it using the following command:
-
-```bash
-setenv ethaddr <MAC address>
-```
-
-For example:
-
-```bash
-setenv ethaddr 2e:09:0a:00:75:b5
-```
-
-* Set the follow environment variables:
-
-```bash
-setenv bootargs_console 'console=ttySC6,38400 ignore_loglevel'
-setenv bootargs_video 'vmalloc=384M video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-32@60'
-setenv bootargs_root 'root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootdelay=3 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait'
-setenv bootmmc '1:1'
-setenv bootcmd_sd 'ext4load mmc ${bootmmc} 0x40007fc0 boot/uImage+dtb'
-setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs ${bootargs_console} ${bootargs_video} ${bootargs_root}; run bootcmd_sd; bootm 0x40007fc0'
-```
-
-**WARNINGS:**
-
-* If no display shows up when booting, e.g. for a non-full HD screen, replace **1920x1080** value in the **bootargs_video** variable with lower screen resolution such as **1024x768**. Unfortunately for the moment there are no universally supported setting.
-
-* Depending on your board (Porter rev B or rev C, Koelsch etc.), the SD card slots may differ.
-
-Try setting **bootmmc** to **0:1** or **2:1** depending on the slot and card format.
-
-For Renesas Porter Rev 1.0 use screen resolution **1024x768** and set **bootmmc** to **2:1**.
-
-* Save the environment variables:
-
-```bash
-saveenv
- Saving Environment to SPI Flash...
- SF: Detected S25FL512S with page size 256 KiB, total 64 MiB
- Erasing SPI flash...Writing to SPI flash...done
-```
-
-* Reboot:
-
-```bash
-reset
-```
-
-### Writing a “hello world” application
-
-Yocto project provides a good reference on its complete solution for developers:
-
-* ADT: The Application Development Toolkit is the complete solution;
-* the cross-toolchain is a simple build environment.
-
-Reading [adt-manual][yocto adt-manual] is a good starting point.
-A Docker image with prebuilt AGL SDK is also made available by [IoT.bzh][Iot.bzh link].
-Check the following document for more information [Link][iot.bzh SDK Kickstart on Renesas Porter board]:
-
-Here, for a quick demo we will build the cross-toolchain and write a sample application.
-First, let's create the build toolchain:
-
-```bash
-cd $AGL_TOP
-source poky/oe-init-build-env
-bitbake meta-ide-support
-```
-
-The small following “hello world” example:
-
-```bash
-cat hello.c
-#include <stdio.h>
-int main() { printf(“Hello world\n”); return 0; }
-```
-
-… can now be compiled and executed this way:
-
-```bash
-. $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/environment-setup-*
-$CC -o hello hello.c
-scp hello root@porterboard:/
-ssh root@porterboard /hello
-```
-
-where 'porterboard' is replaced by the IP address or the hostname of your Porter board.
-
-### Running CES 2016 Demos
-
-The CES demos are located in /opt/AGL/CES2016 (on the microSD-Card).
-To run the demo, execute the following commands on the target (from a weston terminal or from the serial console)
-
-```bash
-cd /opt/AGL/CES2016
-export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libEGL.so
-```
-
-For the main demo, run:
-
-```bash
-/usr/bin/qt5/qmlscene -–fullscreen -I imports Main.qml
-```
-
-To start the demo using IVI Shell, run the appropriate scripts located in /opt/AGL/CES2016:
-
-```bash
-./switch_to_ivi-shell.sh
-./start_CES2016_ivi-shell.sh
-```
-
-This will restart Weston with IVI Shell enabled and launch the demo.
-With the above commands, the demo application has still some decorations.
-They can be dropped by adding '--fullscreen' in the script. Use the following command once to modify the script.
-
-```bash
-sed -i 's/Main.qml/--fullscreen Main.qml/' start_CES2016_ivi-shell.sh
-```
-
-Then restart the demo:
-
-```bash
-killall qmlscene
-./start_CES2016_ivi-shell.sh
-```
-
-#### IMPORTANT
-
-Please note that the current image uses Evaluation drivers:
-
-* as a consequence, the graphics and multimedia acceleration provided by these drivers will stop after 3 hours. When this happens, simply reboot the board and restart the demo.
-
-For more information, you can check the embedded README:
-
-```bash
-cat /opt/AGL/CES2016/README.md
-Open source QML UI
-
-To run on target:
-$ cd /opt/AGL/CES2016
-$ /usr/bin/qt5/qmlscene -I imports Main.qml
-
-For development it can be nice to use Scaled.qml instead so it fits your screen.

-(Optional) switch shell for weston to ivi-shell and start demo apps if you want to start demo apps with ivi-shell.
-$ cd /opt/AGL/CES2016
-$ ./switch_to_ivi-shell
-(Option a) $ ./start_CES2016_ivi-shell.sh
-(Option b) $ ./start_CES2016_with_navi_ivi-shell.sh
-
-Option a: start QML UI only.
-Option b: start QML + CarNavigation:/home/navi. For the time being, CarNavigation expects to be Wayland native application, which will be showed on top of QML by using LayerManagerControl.
