OTP/Bootloader Source

Hi Team,

Congrats on a strong release for the first set of boards!

Will the OTP ROM and Bootloader source code for HiFive1 be released any time soon?

Thank you!

OTP is 4 lines of assembly, which can be found in the Getting Started Guide. Will open source the bootloader and requested items soon after we’re back from the holidays!

Thanks, Megan. Happy holidays!

Any news for those interested in bootloader development?

The source for the “boot loader” shipped on the HiFive1 boards is available in the freedom-e-sdk, as double_tap_dontboot : https://github.com/sifive/freedom-e-sdk/blob/master/software/double_tap_dontboot/double_tap_dontboot.c

To actually reflash the bootloader, you’ll need to tweak the linker script to start at 0x20000000 instead of 0x20400000, and lift the flash protection starting at 0 instead of 64 in the openocd script.
