barebox environment raw partition on beaglebone black

[Lars Pedersen]

Hi.

I'm trying to create a barebox environment by using af emmc a raw
partition offset on the beaglebone black.

For testing I appended the following into am33x-boneblack.dts.

/ {
    chosen {
        environment {
            compatible = "barebox,environment";
            device-path = &environment_emmc;
        };
    };

    aliases {
        state = &state_emmc;
    };

    state_emmc: state {
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <1>;
        compatible = "barebox,state";
        magic = <0x4b414d31>;
        backend-type = "raw";
        backend = <&backend_state_emmc>;
        backend-stridesize = <0x200>;

        bootstate {
            #address-cells = <1>;
            #size-cells = <1>;

            system0 {
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <1>;

                remaining_attempts at 0 {
                    reg = <0x0 0x4>;
                    type = "uint32";
                    default = <10>;
                };

                priority at 4 {
                    reg = <0x4 0x4>;
                    type = "uint32";
                    default = <21>;
                };
            };

            system1 {
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <1>;

                remaining_attempts at 8 {
                    reg = <0x8 0x4>;
                    type = "uint32";
                    default = <0>;
                };

                priority at c {
                    reg = <0xc 0x4>;
                    type = "uint32";
                    default = <20>;
                };
            };

            last_chosen at 10 {
                reg = <0x10 0x4>;
                type = "uint32";
            };
        };
    };
};

/* eMMC */
&mmc2 {
    partitions {
        compatible = "fixed-partitions";
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <1>;

        environment_emmc: partition at 100000 {
            label = "barebox-environment";
            reg = <0x100000 0x100000>;
        };

        backend_state_emmc: partition at 200000 {
            label = "barebox-state";
            reg = <0x200000 0x100000>;
        };
    };
};

Afterwards I get the following console output:

Maybe you have to create the partition.
changing USB current limit to 1300 mA... done

Hit m for menu or any to stop autoboot:    1
---------------------------------------------------

Why does it try to read the env on a partition on
/mnt/mmc1.0/barebox.env? Is it because barebox.bin also is read from
this partition?

Thanks.
