Pinebook serial console usage
#1
Hi,

Is the Pinebook Serial Console usable with the Pinebook Pro?

On mine PBP, when I used the Pinebook serial console, it seems to lead to eMMC not responding: when plugged-in from cold boot, I got DDR initialization then it hangs; if I plug the jack after DDR initialization, I got eMMC timeout.

Here is a sample serial output, from a cold boot:

Code:
DDR Version 1.20 20190314 In channel 0 CS = 0 MR0=0x98 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 CS = 1 MR0=0x18 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 channel 1 CS = 0 MR0=0x98 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 CS = 1 MR0=0x18 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 channel 0 training pass! channel 1 training pass! change freq to 400MHz 0,1 channel 0 CS = 0 MR0=0x98 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 CS = 1 MR0=0x18 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 channel 1 CS = 0 MR0=0x98 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 CS = 1 MR0=0x18 MR4=0x1 MR5=0xFF MR8=0x8 MR12=0x72 MR14=0x72 MR18=0x0 MR19=0x0 MR24=0x8 MR25=0x0 channel 0 training pass! channel 1 training pass! change freq to 800MHz 1,0 Channel 0: LPDDR4,800MHz Bus Width=32 Col=10 Bank=8 Row=15/15 CS=2 Die Bus-Width=16 Size=2048MB Channel 1: LPDDR4,800MHz Bus Width=32 Col=10 Bank=8 Row=15/15 CS=2 Die Bus-Width=16 Size=2048MB 256B stride ch 0 ddrconfig = 0x101, ddrsize = 0x2020 ch 1 ddrconfig = 0x101, ddrsize = 0x2020 pmugrf_os_reg[2] = 0x3AA1FAA1, stride = 0xD OUT DDR Version 1.20 20190314 In soft reset SRX
Then it hangs indefinitely. The power LED stays off.

When attaching the jack after u-boot load from eMMC:

Code:

With the jack plugged-in but the USB plug not attached to a computer, it boots normally.

What am I doing wrong?
