--- title: Building for Supported Renesas Boards --- AGL supports building for several automotive [Renesas](https://www.renesas.com/us/en/solutions/automotive.html) board kits. Renesas is the number one supplier of vehicle control microcontrollers and System on a Chip (SoC) products for the automotive industry. This section provides the build and deploy steps you need to create an image for the following Renesas platforms: * [Renesas R-Car Starter Kit Pro Board](https://www.elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/M3SK) * [Renesas R-Car Starter Kit Premier Board](https://www.elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/H3SK) * [Renesas Salvator-X Board](https://www.elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Salvator-X) * [Renesas Kingfisher Infotainment Board](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Kingfisher) **NOTE:** You can find similar information for the Pro and Premier board kits on the [R-Car/Boards/Yocto-Gen3](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Yocto-Gen3) page on [elinux.org](https://elinux.org). The information on this page describes setup and build procedures for both of these Renesas development kits. Additionally, the AGL Reference Hardware platform is based on the same Renesas H3 processor used on the Renesas R-Car Starter Kit Premier and Salvator-X boards, so support for it leverages the Starter Kit Premier (also known as "h3ulcb") build. For more information on the AGL reference hardware platform, please refer to its [manual](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/_media/eg-rhsa/rh_manual_ver.1.0.pdf), or the Reference Hardware System Architecture Expert Group [wiki page](https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/eg-rhsa). ## 1. Prepare your build ### 1.1 Downloading Proprietary Drivers Before setting up the build environment, you need to download proprietary drivers from the [R-Car H3/M3 Software library and Technical document](https://www.renesas.com/us/en/application/automotive/r-car-h3-m3-documents-software) site. Follow these steps to download the drivers you need: 1. **Determine the Files You Need:** Run the ``setup_mm_packages.sh`` script as follows to display the list of ZIP files containing the drivers you need. Following is an example: ```sh grep -rn ZIP_.= $AGL_TOP/meta-agl/meta-agl-bsp/meta-rcar-gen3/scripts/setup_mm_packages.sh ``` The script's output identifies the files you need to download from the page. 2. **Get Your Board Support Package (BSP) Version:** Be sure to have the correct BSP version of the R-Car Starter Kit based on the version of the AGL software you are using. Find the appropriate download links on the [R-Car H3/M3 Software library and Technical document](https://www.renesas.com/us/en/application/automotive/r-car-h3-m3-documents-software) site. The file pairs are grouped according to the Yocto Project version you are using with the AGL software. Use the following table to map the Renesas version to your AGL software: | AGL Version | Renesas version | |:-:|:-:| | AGL master | 5.9.0 | 3. **Download the Files:** Start the download process by clicking the download link. If you do not have an account with Renesas, you will be asked to register a free account. You must register and follow the "Click Through" licensing process in order to download these proprietary files. If needed, follow the instructions to create the free account by providing the required account information. Once the account is registered and you are logged in, you can download the files. **NOTE:** You might have to re-access the [original page](https://www.renesas.com/us/en/application/automotive/r-car-h3-m3-documents-software) that contains the download links you need after creating the account and logging in. 4. **Create an Environment Variable to Point to Your Download Area:** Create and export an environment variable named `XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR` that points to your download directory. Here is an example: ```sh export XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR=$HOME/Downloads ``` 5. **Be Sure the Files Have Rights:** Be sure you have the necessary rights for the files you downloaded. You can use the following command: ```sh chmod a+rw $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR/*.zip ``` 6. **Check to be Sure the Files are Downloaded and Have the Correct Rights:** Do a quick listing of the files to ensure they are in the download directory and they have the correct access rights. Here is an example: ```sh $ ls -l $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR/*.zip -rw-rw-r-- 1 scottrif scottrif 4662080 Nov 19 14:48 /home/scottrif/Downloads/R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-weston8-20200923.zip -rw-rw-r-- 1 scottrif scottrif 3137626 Nov 19 14:49 /home/scottrif/Downloads/R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-weston8-20200923.zip ``` ### 1.2. Getting More Software 1. **Get the `bmaptool`:** Download this tool from the [bmap-tools](https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/isv:LinuxAutomotive:AGL_Master/bmap-tools) repository. The site has pre-built packages (DEB or RPM) for the supported host operating systems. ### 1.3. Getting Your Hardware Together Gather together this list of hardware items, which is not exhaustive. Having these items ahead of time saves you from having to try and collect hardware during development: * Supported Starter Kit Gen3 board with its 5V power supply. * Micro USB-A cable for serial console. This cable is optional if you are using Ethernet and an SSH connection. * USB 2.0 Hub. The hub is optional but makes it easy to connect multiple USB devices. * Ethernet cable. The cable is optional if you are using a serial console. * HDMI type D (Micro connector) cable and an associated display. * 4 Gbyte minimum MicroSD Card. It is recommended that you use a class 10 type. * USB touch screen device such as the GeChic 1502i/1503i. A touch screen device is optional. **NOTE:** The Salvator-X Board has NDA restrictions. Consequently, less documentation is available for this board both here and across the Internet. ### 1.4. Making Sure Your Build Environment is Correct The "[Initializing Your Build Environment](./04_Initializing_Your_Build_Environment.md)" section presented generic information for setting up your build environment using the `aglsetup.sh` script. If you are building an image for a supported Renesas board, you need to take steps to make sure your build host is set up correctly. 1. **Define Your Board:** Depending on your Renesas board, define and export a `MACHINE` variable as follows: | Board | `MACHINE` Setting | |:-:|:-:| | Starter Kit Pro/M3 | `MACHINE`=m3ulcb | | Starter Kit Pro/M3 + kingfisher support | `MACHINE`=m3ulcb-kf | | Starter Kit Pro/M3 without graphic driver (using pixman) | `MACHINE`=m3ulcb-nogfx | | Starter Kit Premier/H3 | `MACHINE`=h3ulcb | | Starter Kit Premier/H3 + kingfisher support | `MACHINE`=h3ulcb-kf | | Starter Kit Premier/H3 without graphic driver (using pixman) | `MACHINE`=h3ulcb-nogfx | | Salvator-X | `MACHINE`=h3-salvator-x | | AGL Reference Hardware | `MACHINE`=h3ulcb | | AGL Reference Hardware without graphic driver (using pixman) | `MACHINE`=h3ulcb-nogfx | For example, the following command defines and exports the `MACHINE` variable for the Starter Kit Premier/H3 Board: ```sh export MACHINE=h3ulcb ``` ### 1.5. **Run the `aglsetup.sh` Script:** Use the following commands to run the AGL Setup script: ```sh cd $AGL_TOP source meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -m $MACHINE -b build agl-devel agl-demo ``` **NOTE:** To avoid useless download and rebuild, it's important to set the variable DL_DIR and SSTATE_DIR in your configuration. ```sh echo "# reuse download directories" >> $AGL_TOP/site.conf echo "DL_DIR = \"$HOME/downloads/\"" >> $AGL_TOP/site.conf echo "SSTATE_DIR = \"$AGL_TOP/sstate-cache/\"" >> $AGL_TOP/site.conf ln -sf $AGL_TOP/site.conf conf/ ``` **Reference Hardware :** If building for the AGL Reference Hardware (with `MACHINE` set to "h3ulcb" or "h3ulcb-nogfx"), add `agl-refhw-h3`, for example: ```sh cd $AGL_TOP source meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -m $MACHINE -b build agl-devel agl-demo agl-refhw-h3 ``` **HTML5 based IVI demo :** For HTML5 based IVI demo the feature "agl-profile-graphical-html5" is needed. ```sh $ source meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -f -m $MACHINE -b $MACHINE agl-demo agl-devel agl-profile-graphical-html5 ``` **Instrument Cluster with Container isolation demo :** ```sh $ source meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -f -m $MACHINE -b $MACHINE agl-lxc ``` **NOTE:** You can check if your logs match what is expected in the [troubleshooting section](#4-troubleshooting). Running the `aglsetup.sh` script automatically places you in the working directory (i.e. `$AGL_TOP/build`). You can change this default behavior by adding the "-f" option to the script's command line. In the previous command, the "-m" option sets your machine to the previously defined `MACHINE` variable. The "-b" option defines your Build Directory, which is the default `$AGL_TOP/build`. Finally, the AGL features are provided to support building the AGL Demo image for the Renesas board. You can learn more about the AGL Features in the "[Initializing Your Build Environment](./04_Initializing_Your_Build_Environment.md)" section. ## 2. Using BitBake This section shows the `bitbake` command used to build the AGL image. Before running BitBake to start your build, it is good to be reminded that AGL does provide pre-built images for developers that work with supported hardware. You can find these pre-built images on the [AGL Download web site](https://download.automotivelinux.org/AGL/release). Start the build using the `bitbake` command. **NOTE:** An initial build can take many hours depending on your CPU and and Internet connection speeds. The build also takes approximately 100G-bytes of free disk space. **Qt based IVI demo :** For this example, the target is "agl-demo-platform": ```sh bitbake agl-demo-platform ``` **HTML5 based IVI demo :** The target is `agl-demo-platform-html5`. ```sh $ time bitbake agl-demo-platform-html5 ``` **Instrument Cluster with Container isolation demo :** The target is `lxc-host-image-demo`. ```sh $ time bitbake lxc-host-image-demo ``` The build process puts the resulting image in the Build Directory: ```sh /tmp/deploy/images/$MACHINE ``` ## 3. Deploying the AGL Demo Image To boot your image on the Renesas board, you need to do three things: 1. [Update all firmware on the board.](#4-troubleshooting) 2. Prepare the MicroSD card to you can boot from it. 3. Boot the board. **NOTE:** For subsequent builds, you only have to re-write the MicroSD card with a new image. ### 3.1. Booting the Image Using a MicroSD Card 1. Preparing the MicroSD Card Plug the MicroSD card into your Build Host. After plugging in the device, use the `dmesg` command as follows to discover the device name: ```sh $ dmesg | tail -4 [ 1971.462160] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Mode Sense: 03 00 00 00 [ 1971.462277] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] No Caching mode page found [ 1971.462278] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 1971.463870] sdc: sdc1 sdc2 ``` In the previous example, the MicroSD card is attached to the device `/dev/sdc`. You can also use the `lsblk` command to show all your devices. Here is an example that shows the MicroSD card as `/dev/sdc`: ```sh $ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 167,7G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 512M 0 part /boot/efi ├─sda2 8:2 0 159,3G 0 part / └─sda3 8:3 0 7,9G 0 part [SWAP] sdb 8:16 0 931,5G 0 disk └─sdb1 8:17 0 931,5G 0 part /media/storage sdc 8:32 1 14,9G 0 disk ├─sdc1 8:33 1 40M 0 part └─sdc2 8:34 1 788M 0 part ``` **IMPORTANT NOTE:** Before re-writing any device on your Build Host, you need to be sure you are actually writing to the removable MicroSD card and not some other device. Each computer is different and removable devices can change from time to time. Consequently, you should repeat the previous operation with the MicroSD card to confirm the device name every time you write to the card. To summarize this example so far, we have the following: * The first SATA drive is `/dev/sda`. * `/dev/sdc` corresponds to the MicroSD card, and is also marked as a removable device. You can see this in the output of the `lsblk` command where "1" appears in the "RM" column for that device. Now that you have identified the device you are going to be writing the image on, you can use the `bmaptool` to copy the image to the MicroSD card. Your desktop system might offer a choice to mount the MicroSD automatically in some directory. For this example, assume that the MicroSD card mount directory is stored in the `$SDCARD` variable. Following are example commands that write the image to the MicroSD card: ```sh cd $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/$MACHINE bmaptool copy ./agl-demo-platform-$MACHINE.wic.xz ``` Alternatively, you can leave the image in an uncompressed state and write it to the MicroSD card: ```sh sudo umount xzcat ./agl-demo-platform-$MACHINE.wic.xz | sudo dd of= bs=4M sync ``` 2. Booting the Board Follow these steps to boot the board: 1. Use the board's power switch to turn off the board. 2. Insert the MicroSD card into the board. 3. Verify that you have plugged in the following: * An external monitor into the board's HDMI port * An input device (e.g. keyboard, mouse, touchscreen, and so forth) into the board's USB ports. 4. Use the board's power switch to turn on the board. After a few seconds, you will see the AGL splash screen on the display and you will be able to log in at the console's terminal or using the graphic screen. ### 3.2. Setting Up the Serial Console Setting up the Serial Console involves the following: * Installing a serial client on your build host * Connecting your build host to your Renesas board's serial port * Powering on the board to get a shell at the console * Configuring U-Boot parameters * Logging into the console * Determining the board's IP address 1. Installing a Serial Client on Your Build Host You need to install a serial client on your build host. Some examples are: * [GNU Screen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen) * [picocom](https://linux.die.net/man/8/picocom) * [Minicom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minicom) Of these three, "picocom" has the least dependencies and is therefore considered the "lightest" solution. 2. Connecting Your Build Host to Your Renesas Board's Serial Port You need to physically connect your build host to the Renesas board using a USB cable from the host to the serial CP2102 USP port (i.e. Micro USB-A port) on the Renesas board. Once you connect the board, determine the device created for the serial link. Use the ``dmesg`` command on your build host. Here is an example: ```sh dmesg | tail 9 [2097783.287091] usb 2-1.5.3: new full-speed USB device number 24 using ehci-pci [2097783.385857] usb 2-1.5.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0403, idProduct=6001 [2097783.385862] usb 2-1.5.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [2097783.385864] usb 2-1.5.3: Product: FT232R USB UART [2097783.385866] usb 2-1.5.3: Manufacturer: FTDI [2097783.385867] usb 2-1.5.3: SerialNumber: AK04WWCE [2097783.388288] ftdi_sio 2-1.5.3:1.0: FTDI USB Serial Device converter detected [2097783.388330] usb 2-1.5.3: Detected FT232RL [2097783.388658] usb 2-1.5.3: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0 ``` The device created is usually "/dev/ttyUSB0". However, the number might vary depending on other USB serial ports connected to the host. To use the link, you need to launch the client. Here are three commands, which vary based on the serial client, that show how to launch the client: ```sh picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0 ``` or ```sh minicom -b 115200 -D /dev/ttyUSB0 ``` or ```sh screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 ``` 3. Powering on the Board to Get a Shell at the Console Both the Pro and Premier kits (e.g. [m3ulcb](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/M3SK) and [h3ulcb](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/H3SK#Hardware)) have nine switches (SW1 through SW9). To power on the board, "short-press" SW8, which is the power switch. Following, is console output for the power on process for each kit: **h3ulcb**: ```text NOTICE: BL2: R-Car Gen3 Initial Program Loader(CA57) Rev.1.0.7 NOTICE: BL2: PRR is R-Car H3 ES1.1 NOTICE: BL2: LCM state is CM NOTICE: BL2: DDR1600(rev.0.15) NOTICE: BL2: DRAM Split is 4ch NOTICE: BL2: QoS is Gfx Oriented(rev.0.30) NOTICE: BL2: AVS setting succeeded.

Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 => ``` ### 3.3. Setting-up U-boot Configuring U-Boot Parameters Follow these steps to configure the board to use the MicroSD card as the boot device and also to set the screen resolution: 1. As the board is powering up, press any key to stop the autoboot process. You need to press a key quickly as you have just a few seconds in which to press a key. 2. Once the autoboot process is interrupted, use the board's serial console to enter `printenv` to check if you have correct parameters for booting your board: Here is an example using the **h3ulcb** board: ```sh => printenv baudrate=115200 bootargs=console=ttySC0,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rootwait ro rootfstype=ext4 bootcmd=run load_ker; run load_dtb; booti 0x48080000 - 0x48000000 bootdelay=3 fdt_high=0xffffffffffffffff initrd_high=0xffffffffffffffff load_dtb=ext4load mmc 0:1 0x48000000 /boot/r8a7795-h3ulcb.dtb load_ker=ext4load mmc 0:1 0x48080000 /boot/Image stderr=serial stdin=serial stdout=serial ver=U-Boot 2015.04 (Jun 09 2016 - 19:21:52) Environment size: 648/131068 bytes ``` 3. To boot your board using the MicroSD card, be sure your environment is set up as follows: ```sh setenv bootargs console=ttySC0,115200 ignore_loglevel vmalloc=384M video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-32@60 root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 rw rootfstype=ext4 rootwait rootdelay=2 setenv bootcmd run load_ker\; run load_dtb\; booti 0x48080000 - 0x48000000 setenv load_ker ext4load mmc 0:1 0x48080000 /boot/Image ``` 4. Loading dtb : **NOTE** : Refer [here](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Yocto-Gen3-CommonFAQ/Which_dtb_file_is_required_to_boot_linux_on_the_R-Car_Starter_Kit_board_%3F) for more information. Make sure your ``load_dtb`` is set as follows : | Renesas Boards | DTB Name | |:-:|:-:| | **H3SK v2.0(DDR 4GB)** | r8a7795-h3ulcb.dtb | | **H3SK v2.0(DDR 8GB)/v3.0(DDR 8GB)** | r8a7795-h3ulcb-4x2g.dtb | | **M3SK v1.0** | r8a7796-m3ulcb.dtb | | **M3SK v3.0** | r8a7796-m3ulcb-2x4g.dtb | | **H3SK with a Kingfisher board** | r8a7795-h3ulcb-kf.dtb | | **M3SK with a Kingfisher board** | r8a7796-m3ulcb-kf.dtb | | **AGL Reference Hardware board** | r8a7795-agl-refhw.dtb | ```sh setenv load_dtb ext4load mmc 0:1 0x48000000 /boot/r8a7795-h3ulcb-kf.dtb ``` 5. Save the boot environment: ```sh saveenv ``` 6. Boot the board: ```sh run bootcmd ``` ## 4. Troubleshooting ### 4.1. Checking Your Configuration Aside from environment variables and parameters you establish through running the `aglsetup.sh` script, you can ensure your build's configuration is just how you want it by examining the `local.conf` configuration file. You can find this configuration file in the Build Directory (e.g. `$TOP_DIR/build/conf/local.conf`). In general, the defaults along with the configuration fragments the `aglsetup.sh` script applies in the `local.conf` file are good enough. However, you can customize aspects by editing the `local.conf` file. See the "[Customizing Your Build](05_Customizing_Your_Build.md)" section for common configurations you might want to consider. **NOTE:** For detailed explanations of the configurations you can make in the ``local.conf`` file, consult the [Yocto Project Documentation](https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/). A quick way to see if you have the `$MACHINE` variable set correctly is to use the following command: ```sh grep -w -e "^MACHINE =" $AGL_TOP/build/conf/local.conf ``` Depending on the Renesas board you are using, you should see output as follows: ```sh MACHINE = "h3ulcb" ``` or ```sh MACHINE = "m3ulcb" ``` or ```sh MACHINE = "h3-salvator-x" ``` If you ran the `aglsetup.sh` script as described in the "[Making Sure Your Build Environment is Correct](#14-making-sure-your-build-environment-is-correct)" section earlier, the "agl-devel", "agl-demo", "agl-netboot", "agl-appfw-smack", and "agl-localdev" AGL features will be in effect. These features provide the following: * A debugger (gdb) * Some tweaks, including a disabled root password * A SFTP server * The TCF Agent for easier application deployment and remote debugging * Some extra system tools such as USB and bluetooth * Support for the AGL demo platform * Network boot support through TFTP and NBD protocols * [IoT.bzh](https://iot.bzh/en/) Application Framework plus [SMACK](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smack_(software)) and [Cynara](https://wiki.tizen.org/Security:Cynara) * Support for local development including `localdev.inc` when present ### 4.2. Check the Script's Log: Running the `aglsetup.sh` script creates the `setup.log` file, which is in the `build/conf` folder. You can examine this log to see the results of the script. For example, suppose the graphics drivers were missing or could not be extracted when you ran the script. In case of missing graphics drivers, you could notice an error message similar to the following: ```text [snip] --- fragment /home/working/workspace_agl_master/meta-agl/templates/machine/h3ulcb/50_setup.sh /home/working/workspace_agl_master /home/working/workspace_agl_master/build_gen3 The graphics and multimedia acceleration packages for the R-Car Gen3 board can be downloaded from: https://www.renesas.com/en-us/solutions/automotive/rcar-demoboard-2.html These 2 files from there should be store in your'/home/devel/Downloads' directory. R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-weston8-20200923.zip R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-weston8-20200923.zip /home/working/workspace_agl_master/build_gen3 --- fragment /home/working/workspace_agl_master/meta-agl/templates/base/99_setup_EULAconf.sh --- end of setup script OK Generating setup file: /home/working/workspace_agl_master/build_gen3/agl-init-build-env ... OK ------------ aglsetup.sh: Done [snip] ``` If you encounter this issue, or any other unwanted behavior, you can fix the error mentioned, remove the `$AGL_TOP/build` directory, and then re-launch the `aglsetup.sh` again. Here is another example that indicates the driver files could not be extracted from the downloads directory: ```text ~/workspace_agl/build/conf $ cat setup.log --- beginning of setup script --- fragment /home/working/workspace_agl/meta-agl/templates/base/01_setup_EULAfunc.sh --- fragment /home/working/workspace_agl/meta-agl/templates/machine/h3ulcb/50_setup.sh ~/workspace_agl ~/workspace_agl/build ERROR: FILES "+/home/working/Downloads/R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-weston8-20200923.zip+" NOT EXTRACTING CORRECTLY ERROR: FILES "+/home/working/Downloads/R-car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-weston8-20200923.zip+" NOT EXTRACTING CORRECTLY The graphics and multimedia acceleration packages for the R-Car Gen3 board BSP can be downloaded from: These 2 files from there should be stored in your '/home/working/Downloads' directory. R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_for_Linux-weston8-20200923.zip R-Car_Gen3_Series_Evaluation_Software_Package_of_Linux_Drivers-weston8-20200923.zip ERROR: Script /home/working/workspace_agl/build/conf/setup.sh failed [snip] ``` ### 4.3. Updating the Board's Firmware Follow these steps to update the firmware: 1. **Update the Sample Loader and MiniMonitor:** You only need to make these updates one time per device. Follow the procedure found on the eLinux.org wiki to update to at least version 3.02, which is mandatory to run the AGL image ([R-car loader update](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/Kingfisher#How_to_update_of_Sample_Loader_and_MiniMonitor)). 2. **Update the Firmware Stack:** You only need to update the firmware stack if you are using the Eel or later (5.0) version of AGL software. M3 and H3 Renesas board are AArch64 platforms. As such, they have a firmware stack that is divided across: **ARM Trusted Firmware**, **OP-Tee** and **U-Boot**. If you are using the Eel (5.0) version or later of the AGL software, you must update the firmware using the **[h3ulcb] [R-car h3ulcb firmware update](http://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/H3SK#Flashing_firmware)** or **[m3ulcb] [R-car m3ulcb firmware update](https://elinux.org/R-Car/Boards/M3SK#Flashing_firmware)** links from the [Embedded Linux Wiki](https://www.elinux.org/Main_Page) (i.e. `elinux.org`). The table in the wiki lists the files you need to flash the firmware. You can find these files in the following directory: ```sh $AGL_TOP/build/tmp/deploy/images/$MACHINE ``` **NOTE:** The Salvator-X firmware update process is not documented on eLinux. **NOTE:** The AGL Reference Hardware board generally should not require a firmware update to be usable, and has a slightly different update procedure. If you do need to update the firmware, the procedure is documented [here](https://git.automotivelinux.org/AGL/meta-agl-refhw/tree/meta-agl-refhw-gen3/docs/ReferenceHW_Rcar_gen3.md). ### 4.4. Logging Into the Console Once the board boots, you should see the [Wayland display](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayland_(display_server_protocol)) on the external monitor. A login prompt should appear as follows depending on your board: **h3ulcb** or **AGL Reference Hardware**: ```text Automotive Grade Linux ${AGL_VERSION} h3ulcb ttySC0 h3ulcb login: root ``` At the prompt, login by using `root` as the login. The password is "empty" so you should not be prompted for the password. ### 4.5. Determining the Board's IP Address If your board is connected to a local network using Ethernet and if a DHCP server is able to distribute IP addresses, you can determine the board's IP address and log in using `ssh`. Here is an example for the **h3ulcb** board: ```sh h3ulcb login: root Last login: Tue Dec 6 09:55:15 UTC 2016 on tty2 root@h3ulcb:~# ip -4 a 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 3: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000 inet 10.0.0.27/24 brd 10.0.0.255 scope global eth0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever root@h3ulcb:~# ``` In the previous example, IP address is 10.0.0.27. Once you know the address, you can use `ssh` to login. Following is an example that shows logging into SSH and then displaying the contents of the `/etc/os-release` file: ```sh $ ssh root@10.0.0.27 Last login: Tue Dec 6 10:01:11 2016 from 10.0.0.13 root@h3ulcb:~# cat /etc/os-release ID="poky-agl" NAME="Automotive Grade Linux" VERSION="11.0.0+snapshot-20210128 (koi)" VERSION_ID="11.0.0-snapshot-20210128" PRETTY_NAME="Automotive Grade Linux 11.0.0+snapshot-20210128 (koi)" ``` ## 5.
