1 Introduction
The NXP MPC-LS VNP EVB brings an advanced automotive gateway solution
using NXP's MPC5748G gateway microcontroller and LS1043A
communications processor SoCs. The combination of a real-time
microcontroller with microprocessor application processing enables new
gateway use cases and service-oriented gateways. The complete MPC-LS
VNP EVB solution consists of two boards - a Processor Module and a Platform
Board with a wide array of automotive interfaces.
This document provides detailed reference information for the MPC-LS VNP
Evaluation Board (EVB) comprising a Processor Module and a Platform Board.
This includes detailed board configuration including connectors, jumpers, LED
notifications, board programming, and recovery instructions. The document
also includes usage of software tools and environment for building, flashing,
and debugging the board.
To get familiar with the system, the user needs to follow the below work flow:
1. Bring up the MPC-LS VNP EVB as described in the Quick Start Guide.
(Requires MPC-LS VNP EVB)
2. Install required software per section Software Requirements.
3. Build Linux and MPC5748G images as per section How to Build.
4. Flash images on LS1043A and MPC5748G per section How to flash the
board or perform board recovery on page 61. (Requires MPC-LS VNP
EVB)

The patch will be applied to rcw directory.
NOTE
If there are errors while applying the patches, the user can run the command “sudo git am -abort” in the u-boot,
linux, and rcw directories. This ensures that there is no patch error initially. If still the error persists, the user can
clone the sources again and try applying patches again.
7. Create two new folders in DCM_git folder:
• dcm-linux_patches_addons
• dcm-uboot_patches_addons
8. From the CAF link, download patches from remaining folders into the two new folders as shown in the table below.>

10. For adding the linux patch, use:
>cd ../linux
>sudo git am ../dcm-linux_patches_addons/*
8.1.3.4 Build RCW
Use the steps described in this section to build RCW.
1. Run the below commands to build the image for rcw:
export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnuexport ARCH=arm6
export PATH=$PATH:/home/<user>/DCM_git/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin
cd ../rcw/ls1043ardb
make

2. If the user gets the “Python2 command not found” error, the user can run the below commands to install python:
>>sudo apt install python -minimal
If the user gets “tclsh command not found” error, the user can run the below commands to install tcl:
>>sudo apt install tcl
3. Now, run the command:
tclsh ../tools/byte_swap.tcl RR_SPPP_3560/rcw_1600_qspiboot.bin RR_SPPP_3560/
rcw_1600_qspiboot_swapped.bin 8
NOTE
The command mentioned above is a single command.
After successful build, the bin “rcw_1600_qspiboot_swapped.bin” will be successfully built at “../rcw/ls1043ardb/
RR_SPPP_3560”.

8.1.3.5 Building U-Boot
Follow these steps for building U-Boot specifically for a defined boot source.
1. Before building, create a directory u-boot_binary inside /DCM_git/. Create four subdirectories inside it:
• ddr
• qspi
• nand
• sd
2. Go to the DCM_git directory and run the following commands:
cd u-boot
export ARCH=arm64
export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
NOTE
Be sure to include the dash at the end of command, after …gnu-.
3. Now, run the command:
export PATH=$PATH:/home/<user>/DCM_git/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin
After running the above commands, use the commands in the following section to build specific U-Boot.
8.1.3.5.1 DDR boot
1. make distclean && make ls1043adcm_sdcard_defconfig && make -j3
2. In the same directory, the file “u-boot-dtb.bin” is the U-Boot created for dram.

3. Copy the binary to /DCM_git/u-boot_binary/ddr/ and rename it to “u-boot-dtb_ramboot.bin”.
NOTE
The U-Boot binary in the /DCM_git/u-boot directory will be replaced by the binary of the latest U-Boot build i.e after
the instructions to build QSPI NOR U-Boot are passed, the U-Boot binary for DDR is overwritten.
8.1.3.5.2 QSPI NOR boot
1. make distclean && make ls1043adcm_defconfig && make -j3
2. In the same directory, the file “u-boot-dtb.bin” is the U-Boot created for QSPI.
3. Copy the binary to /DCM_git/u-boot_binary and rename it to “u-boot-dtb_qspi.bin”.
8.1.3.5.3 NAND boot
1. make distclean && make ls1043adcm_nand_defconfig && make -j3

2. In the same directory, the file “u-boot-with-spl-pbl.bin” is the U-Boot created for NAND.
3. Copy the binary to /DCM_git/u-boot_binary/nand and rename it to “u-boot-with-spl-pbl-nand.bin”.
8.1.3.5.4 SD boot
1. make distclean && make ls1043adcm_sdcard_defconfig && make -j3

2. In the same directory, the file “u-boot-with-spl-pbl.bin” is the U-Boot created for sd memory.
3. Copy the binary /DCM_git/u-boot_binary/sd and rename it to “u-boot-with-spl-pbl_sd.bin”.
8.1.3.6 Build Linux
Run the following set of command to build the Linux image. Go to DCM_git directory and run the following set of commands:
1. Download rootfs for Linux from https://github.com/qoriq-open-source/ramdiskrfs. Download
“ramdisk_rootfs_arm64.ext4.gz” as shown in the snapshot:
2. After download completes, copy “ramdisk_rootfs_arm64.ext4.gz” to a new directory “ramdisk_fs” created in /home/
<user> directory.
NOTE
The below package versions can change without notice.
3. Download tcpdump binary from the following link https://packages.debian.org/jessie/arm64/tcpdump/download . Click on
following link ftp.us.debian.org/debian on above webpage. It will download “tcpdump_4.9.2-1_deb8u1_arm64.deb” file.
Copy this to the “ramdisk_fs” directory.
