As far as I understand, all the exposed information can be written from rockchip closed/source tools. I don't have a rockchip board with Nand to test. Rather prefer to go with some initial an minimalistic approach and see how look like In nxp we have only a small tool in uboot able to program the nand. Do you think that same approach is possible in rockchip?

From: Johan Jonker <jbx6244@gmail.com> Add Rockchip IDB device for U-boot. On Rockchip SoCs with a NAND as boot device the information data base (IDB) loaded by the boot ROM is stored at the beginning of several erase blocks. Rewriting NAND blocks makes them wear out, so some spare blocks and a writing strategy are required. A closed source usbplug uses block: 2,3,4,5,6 for example. Block 0 and 1 is in use for other data. For compatible reasons this device follows this approach in line with other Rockchip products and modules for now. The Rockchip boot ROM requires a particular file format for booting from NAND: It starts with 512-byte (IDB sector 0), RC4 encoded header and is aligned to NAND page size. Rockchip fills sector 1,2 and 3 here with more data structures, but that is not required by the boot ROM. It just makes it easier to identify the IDB date and version. Then 2KB pieces (4 x 512 byte sectors) of spl and tpl data aligned to the NAND page size in a fixed pattern with empty pages. Size of spl and tpl must be aligned to 2KB. Empty NAND pages/sectors not in use should fill with 0xFF padding to increase NAND durability. Create a IDB image for the flash tools below with: #### For RK30 with NAND only #### printf "RK30" > tplspl.bin dd if=u-boot-tpl.bin >> tplspl.bin truncate -s %2048 tplspl.bin truncate -s %2048 u-boot-spl.bin ./mkimage -v -n rk3066 -T rksd -d ./tplspl.bin:./u-boot-spl.bin out #### For other Rockchip SoCs with NAND #### ./mkimage -v -n rk3188 -T rksd -d ./u-boot-tpl.bin:./u-boot-spl.bin out or if more data structures for IDB sector 1, 2 (RC4) and 3 (RC4) are needed then use a custom image tool as mainline only has basic support for IDB sector 0. In order to transfer data from a host (PC) via USB existing methods are used. This driver creates an GPT EFI block driver to work with the U-boot commands "rockusb" and "ums". IDB data is inserted 'on the fly' as if it were a normal disk in blocks with 512 byte. Changing disk parameters is not allowed. The IDB device driver looks for block driver sector 64 to start with and calculates the IDB size. When the last sector is received it erases a NAND block and writes IDB sectors to NAND in a pattern. Written data is verified. If not identical that NAND erase block is freed. As last thing the remaining IDB blocks are scanned and made available for reading. Normal U-boot operation contains 2 steps: 1 - start IDB device 2 - start USB gadget (rockusb or ums) U-boot IDB commands: idb start - start IDB device idb stop - stop IDB blk device idb info - show IDB device info Host (PC) tool commands combinations that work: U-boot linux rockusb 0 idb 0 upgrade_tool pl upgrade_tool wl 64 upgrade_tool_wl_64.bin upgrade_tool rl 64 512 upgrade_tool_rl_64_512.bin upgrade_tool rd rkdeveloptool ppt rkdeveloptool wlx loader1 rkdeveloptool_wlx_loader1.bin rkdeveloptool wl 64 rkdeveloptool_wl_64.bin rkdeveloptool rl 64 512 rkdeveloptool_rl_64_512.bin rkdeveloptool rd rkflashtool w 64 512 < rkflashtool_w_64_512.bin rkflashtool r 64 512 > rkflashtool_r_64_512.bin ums 0 idb 0 dd if=ums_0_idb_0_wr.bin of=/dev/sda1 dd if=/dev/sda1 of=ums_0_idb_0_rd.bin Tested with: MK808 rk3066 Not tested: nfc type V8, V9 TODO: Looking for advice on what needs to be done to make it fit for mainline.
