Olimex A64-Olinuxino¶
This tutorial will show the details of Olimex A64-Olinuxino board mainline support and other needed details, for more information about hardware and linux-sunxi
BSP Build¶
Manual Build¶
Image building need host to ready with all necessary tools ready, refer here
Below are the details of Image build for Olimex A64-Olinuxino board.
ATF¶
git clone https://github.com/apritzel/arm-trusted-firmware.git
cd arm-trusted-firmware
make PLAT=sun50iw1p1 bl31
export BL31=/path/to/arm-trusted-firmware/build/sun50iw1p1/release/bl31.bin
U-Boot¶
git clone git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git
cd u-boot
make a64-olinuxino_defconfig
make
Linux¶
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git
cd linux-next
make mrproper
ARCH=arm64 make defconfig
ARCH=arm64 make -j 4 Image dtbs
ARCH=arm64 make modules && ARCH=arm64 make modules_install
Buildroot¶
It’s easy to build entire system using buildroot and mainline supported a64-olinuxino already. See read this readme.txt for more info.
git clone git://git.busybox.net/buildroot
cd buildroot
make olimex_a64_olinuxino_defconfig
make
Linux¶
USB OTG¶
Here, we can take mass storage as gadget function and will show how it can work with ‘host’ and ‘peripheral’ modes
Build otg mass storage as statically linked module with
CONFIG_USB_MASS_STORAGE=yi
Append bootargs with ‘g_mass_storage.removable=1 g_mass_storage.luns=1’
Peripheral¶
Plug USB otg cable A-type to host pc and B-type to bananapi

RTL8723BS Wifi¶
Enable custom configuration and build buildroot
Build the Linux with CONFIG_RTL8723BS=m
Prepare SD card from SD Boot
Clone linux-firmware and copy rtlwifi into rootfs lib/firmware
Insert SD card and power-on
