This is an independent tool with source code to generate partition table image (traditionally, it's named ptable.img) for HiKey960 board. It can be integrated into Android Source code or used independently on linux pc.
Step 1: Edit struct partition partition_table_ufs[] in partition.h to define partition layout, names and sizes. Please also read Note 1 below.
Step 2: Build the tool efipartition.
make
Step 3: Generate a partition image: ptable.img.
efipartition ptable.img
Step 4: Flash ptable.img to the board. Then flash other images.
- DIP 1 & 3 ON, DIP 2 OFF: put board into fastboot mode,
fastboot flash ptable ptable.img- Reboot the board. Power cycle it.
- Flash other images which has been impacted by ptable changes. As a super set, ideally, you'd better flash all these below:
# bootloader
fastboot flash xloader ${IMG_FOLDER}/sec_xloader.img
fastboot flash fastboot ${IMG_FOLDER}/fastboot.img
# extra images
fastboot flash nvme ${IMG_FOLDER}/nvme.img
fastboot flash fw_lpm3 ${IMG_FOLDER}/lpm3.img
fastboot flash trustfirmware ${IMG_FOLDER}/bl31.bin
- Proceed to OS installation. Read Note 2 below to learn how in case you need to rebuild OS and user land images.
Overall, ptable.img structure is as this:
/*------------------------|
| emmc | 128K bytes
*------------------------|
| ufs lu0 | 17K bytes
*----------------------- |
| ufs lu1 | 17K bytes
*----------------------- |
| ....... |
*----------------------- |
| ufs lu6 | 17K bytes
*----------------------- |
| ufs lu7 | 17K bytes
*----------------------- |
*/
In order to be more general, ptable.img is made to support both emmc and ufs. It contains a 128KB emmc ptable at the beginning, then followed by UFS ptables.
