+Milk-V Mars CM
+==============
+
+U-Boot for the Milk-V Mars CM uses the same U-Boot binaries as the VisionFive 2
+board. In U-Boot SPL the actual board is detected and the device-tree patched
+accordingly.
+
+The Milk-V Mars CM Lite comes without eMMC and needs a different pin muxing
+than the Milk-V Mars CM. The availability and size of the eMMC shows up in the
+serial number displayed by the *mac* command, e.g.
+MARC-V10-2340-D002E016-00000304. The number after the E is the MMC size. U-Boot
+takes a value of E000 as an indicator for the Lite version. Unfortunately the
+vendor has not set this value correctly on some Lite boards.
+
+Please, use CONFIG_STARFIVE_NO_EMMC=y if EEPROM data indicates eMMC is present
+on the Milk-V Mars CM Lite. Otherwise you will not be able to read from the
+SD-card.
+
+The serial number can be corrected using the *mac* command:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ mac read_eeprom
+ mac product_id MARC-V10-2340-D002E000-00000304
+ mac write_eeprom
+
+.. note::
+
+ The *mac initialize* command overwrites the vendor string and the MAC
+ addresses. This is why it is avoided here.
+
+By default the EEPROM is write protected. The write protection may be overcome
+by connecting the "GND" and "EN" test pads on top of the module.
+
+Building
+~~~~~~~~
+
+1. Add the RISC-V toolchain to your PATH.
+2. Setup ARCH & cross compilation environment variable:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ export CROSS_COMPILE=<riscv64 toolchain prefix>
+
+The M-mode software OpenSBI provides the supervisor binary interface (SBI) and
+is responsible for the switch to S-Mode. It is a prerequisite to build U-Boot.
+Support for the JH7110 was introduced in OpenSBI 1.2. It is recommended to use
+a current release.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ git clone https://github.com/riscv/opensbi.git
+ cd opensbi
+ make PLATFORM=generic FW_TEXT_START=0x40000000
+
+(*FW_TEXT_START* is not needed anymore after OpenSBI patch d4d2582eef7a
+"firmware: remove FW_TEXT_START" which should appear in OpenSBI 1.5.)
+
+Now build the U-Boot SPL and U-Boot proper.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ cd <U-Boot-dir>
+ make starfive_visionfive2_defconfig
+ make OPENSBI=$(opensbi_dir)/build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin
+
+This will generate the U-Boot SPL image (spl/u-boot-spl.bin.normal.out) as well
+as the FIT image (u-boot.itb) with OpenSBI and U-Boot.
+
+Device-tree selection
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Depending on the board version U-Boot sets variable $fdtfile to either
+starfive/jh7110-milkv-mars-cm.dtb (with eMMC storage) or
+starfive/jh7110-milkv-mars-cm-lite.dtb (without eMMC storage).
+
+To overrule this selection the variable can be set manually and saved in the
+environment
+
+::
+
+ env set fdtfile my_device-tree.dtb
+ env save
+
+or the configuration variable CONFIG_DEFAULT_FDT_FILE can be used to set to
+provide a default value.
+
+The variable *$fdtfile* is used in the boot process to automatically load
+a device-tree provided by the operating system. For details of the boot
+process refer to the :doc:`U-Boot Standard Boot <../../../develop/bootstd>`
+description.
+
+Boot source selection
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The low speed connector nRPIBOOT line is used to switch the boot source.
+
+* If nRPIBOOT is connected to ground, the board boots from UART.
+* If nRPIBOOT is not connected, the board boots from SPI flash.
+
+Compute module boards typically have a switch or jumper for this line.
+
+Flashing a new U-Boot version
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+U-Boot SPL is provided as file spl/u-boot-spl.bin.normal.out. Main U-Boot is
+in file u-boot.itb.
+
+Assuming your new U-Boot version is on partition 1 of an SD-card you could
+install it to the SPI flash with:
+
+::
+
+ sf probe
+ load mmc 0:1 $kernel_addr_r u-boot-spl.bin.normal.out
+ sf update $kernel_addr_r 0 $filesize
+ load mmc 0:1 $kernel_addr_r u-boot.itb
+ sf update $kernel_addr_r 0x100000 $filesize
+
+For loading the files from a TFTP server refer to the dhcp and tftpboot
+commands.
+
+After updating U-Boot you may want to reboot and reset the environment to the
+default.
+
+::
+
+ env default -f -a
+ env save
+
+Booting from UART
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For booting via UART U-Boot must be built with CONFIG_SPL_YMODEM_SUPPORT=y.
+
+With nRPIBOOT connected to ground for UART boot, power the board and upload
+u-boot-spl.bin.normal.out via XMODEM. Then upload u-boot.itb via YMODEM.
+
+The XMODEM implementation in the boot ROM is not fully specification compliant.
+It sends too many NAKs in a row. Tio is a terminal emulation that tolerates
+these faults.
+
+::
+
+ $ tio -b 115200 --databits 8 --flow none --stopbits 1 /dev/ttyUSB0

+Booting from SPI flash
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+With nRPIBOOT disconnected from ground for SPI boot, power up the board. You
+should see the U-Boot prompt on the serial console.
