In addition to providing accurate location information, the Global Positioning System provides accurate timing information. It also includes the ability to transmit the proper date and time to a receiver by supplying the receiver with the current week and the current number of seconds into the week. This allows the receiver to translate the date and time into a more typical format – day, month, year, and time of day. The field from the Satellite system that contains the week number is a 10-bit binary number. This limits the range of the week number to 0 – 1023, or 1024 total weeks. GPS week zero started January 6, 1980. The 1024 weeks counter ran out and rolled over on August 21, 1999. The week counter then reset to zero, and it has been recounting ever since. The next time the counter will reach week 1023 and rollover to zero is on April 6, 2019. April 6, 2019 is the 1024th week and unless a GPS module or application has already accounted for this, the date may not report accurately. If the application does not use the date or if there are other sources for the date outside of the GPS module, one may not be affected. Notes for the following GPS devices: * Wi2Wi GPS - Used on Ventana Boards * 02120775: W2SG0008i - SiRF Star IV Chipset * Notes: Wi2Wi provided notice indicating that Qualcomm (formerly CSR) ran extensive simulator testing and that they saw no operational issues. * u-blox GPS - Used on Newport and Custom Ventana Boards * 02120901: ZOE-M8Q-0 * 02120830: EVA-M8M * Notes: As these are newer GPS chipsets, it is not expected they will face any issues. More information is available in the [https://portal.u-blox.com/s/ u-blox portal] * Trimble GPS - Used on Avila, Cambria and Laguna Boards * 02120512: Copernicus 63530-00 and Copernicus 58048-20 * 02120619: Condor 68674-05 * Notes: Recommended to update application code to accommodate for the week number change from the GPS module. Sample code is available by emailing Gateworks Support. Customers using Gateworks BSPs with gpsd can address this within gpsd if using another time service. Customers not using the GPS time are not affected. For systems that have no RTC, GPSD can provide the system time. If you manually set the system clock to a date in the current year before launching gpsd you will get the correct time (gpsd has some sanity check when setting system time). Further information: * [wiki:gps GPS Wiki Page] Email Gateworks support with any further questions [=#pcn35] == PCN35 - Newport Software Update * Date: 04-24-2019 * All Gateworks Newport family products manufactured after 4/25/2019 will have the following firmware updates.

The operating system is still programmed into the eMMC user hardware partition. eMMC FLASH devices have multiple 'hardware partitions' per the JEDEC specification. The 'boot0' and 'boot1' hardware partitions are smaller than the 'user' hardware partition and are intended to be used for boot firmware. Often, depending on the FLASH manufacturer specific details of the device, the boot0 and boot1 hardware partitions will also use single-bit memory cells vs multi-bit memory cells used on user and thus be more robust. The boot0 and boot1 hardware partitions are always fairly small in size compared to the 'user' hardware partition. Putting boot firmware on the boot0 or boot1 hardware partition provides the advantage of greater separation between your boot firmware and your OS. The IMX8M based Venice product family supports IMX8MM (mini), IMX8MP (plus), and IMX8MN (nano) SoC's which each require different binary incompatible boot firmware. By not having the boot firmware on the user hardware partition it allows distributing binary-compatible OS software (not including boot firmware) via a compressed disk image. For these reasons Gateworks Venice boards with a manufacturing date of 2023-11-06 or more recent have boot firmware that is programmed onto the eMMC boot0 hardware partition instead of the eMMC user hardware partition used prior to this date. This involves both programming the OS and boot firmware on the respective hardware partitions (user and boot0 respectively) as well as setting the partition config register such that the eMMC has boot0 active on power-up to boot from it. While Gateworks recommends using boot0 for boot firmware is is ultimately up to the user to decide but note that where you put the boot firmware depends both on the SoC as well as the hardware partition: imx8mm user/boot0/boot1: 33K imx8mp/imx8mn user: 32K imx8mp/imx8mn boot0/boot1: 0K Modern Gatework boot firmware will determine what hardware partition the device booted from and set some env variables (bootpart and bootblk) that are used in the U-Boot ‘update_firmware’ boot script to make the firmware update process from U-Boot handle this. If you want to ‘change’ what hardware partition your board is booting from you need to program the boot firmware into the correct SoC-specific and partition-specific offset (above) as well as set the eMMC partition config register specifying what partition is active on power-up. This is easiest done by using the Gateworks JTAG adapter and programming method with a JTAG image as the image contains details such as what partition and offset to program the image to as well as how to configure the partition configuration. So if you run into trouble by setting the partition configuration register wrong or by putting the boot firmware in the wrong place the easiest recovery is to flash the latest Gateworks boot firmware (see https://dev.gateworks.com/venice/images/). The implications of this change are that it could change the firmware image you provide to Gateworks if you have a Gateworks special or custom build where we flash your custom firmware onto the boards. When providing Gateworks with firmware images for custom and special builds where we program on customer firmware it is important to provide one of the following to us: - A compressed disk image intended for the eMMC user hardware partition that has both your boot firmware as well as your OS firmware indicating the eMMC will boot from user. In this case the test fixture will configure the eMMC to boot from user - A JTAG binary image containing your boot firmware, the boot partition configuration (the –partconf argument to mkimage_jtag), and OS firmware - A JTAG binary image containing your boot firmware and partition config as well as a compressed disk image to be installed on user Modern versions of the Venice U-Boot bootloader will tell you what hardware partition the board is booting from via the ‘Trying to boot from eMMC boot0’ message displayed early in boot by the SPL (in this case indicating boot0 is used). For details on determining the boot partition and changing it please see: https://trac.gateworks.com/wiki/venice/boot#eMMCbootpartition For more information on eMMC and hardware partitions see: https://trac.gateworks.com/wiki/MMC#emmc Please contact Gateworks support with any questions.
