+=============================================
+
+Introduction:
+-------------
+
+BeagleBoard.org BeagleBone AI-64 is an open source hardware single
+board computer based on the Texas Instruments TDA4VM SoC featuring
+dual-core 2.0GHz Arm Cortex-A72 processor, C7x+MMA and 2 C66x
+floating-point VLIW DSPs, 3x dual ARM Cortex-R5 co-processors,
+2x 6-core Programmable Real-Time Unit and Industrial Communication
+SubSystem, PowerVR Rogue 8XE GE8430 3D GPU. The board features 4GB
+DDR4, USB3.0 Type-C, 2x USB SS Type-A, miniDisplayPort, 2x 4-lane
+CSI, DSI, 16GB eMMC flash, 1G Ethernet, M.2 E-key for WiFi/BT, and
+BeagleBone expansion headers.

+Boot Flow:
+----------
+Below is the pictorial representation of boot flow:
+
+.. image:: ../ti/img/boot_diagram_j721e.svg
+  :alt: Boot flow diagram
+
+- On this platform, DMSC runs 'TI Foundational Security' (TIFS) which
+  functions as the security enclave master. The 'Device Manager' (DM),
+  also known as the 'TISCI server' in "TI terminology", running on boot
+  R5F, offers all the essential services required for device management.
+  The A72, C7x, C6x or R5F (Aux cores) sends requests to TIFS/DM to
+  accomplish the needed services, as illustrated in the diagram above.

+
+Additional hardware for U-Boot development
+------------------------------------------
+
+* Serial Console is critical for U-Boot development on BeagleBone AI-64. See
+  `BeagleBone AI-64 connector documentation
+  <https://docs.beagleboard.org/latest/boards/beaglebone/ai-64/ch07.html>`_.
+* uSD is preferred option over eMMC, and a SD/MMC reader will be needed.
+* (optionally) JTAG is useful when working with very early stages of boot.
+
+Default storage options
+-----------------------
+
+There are multiple storage media options on BeagleBone AI-64, but primarily:
+
+* Onboard eMMC (default) - reliable, fast and meant for deployment use.
+* SD/MMC card interface (hold 'BOOT' switch and power on) - Entirely
+  depends on the SD card quality.
+
+Flash to uSD card or how to deal with "bricked" Board
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+When deploying or working on Linux, it's common to use the onboard
+eMMC. However, avoiding the eMMC and using the uSD card is safer when
+working with U-Boot.
+
+If you choose to  hand format your own bootable uSD card, be
+aware that it can be difficult. The following information
+may be helpful, but remember that it is only sometimes
+reliable, and partition options can cause issues. These
+can potentially help:
+
+* https://git.ti.com/cgit/arago-project/tisdk-setup-scripts/tree/create-sdcard.sh
+* https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Expanding_File_System_Partition_On_A_microSD
+
+The simplest option is to start with a standard distribution
+image like those in `BeagleBoard.org Distros Page
+<https://www.beagleboard.org/distros>`_ and download a disk image for
+BeagleBone AI-64. Pick a 16GB+ uSD card to be on the safer side.
+
+With an SD/MMC Card reader and `Balena Etcher
+<https://etcher.balena.io/>`_, having a functional setup in minutes is
+a trivial matter, and it works on almost all Host Operating Systems.
+Yes Windows users, Windows Subsystem for Linux(WSL) based development
+with U-Boot and update uSD card is practical.
+
+Updating U-Boot is a matter of copying the tiboot3.bin, tispl.bin and
+u-boot.img to the "BOOT" partition of the uSD card. Remember to sync
+and unmount (or Eject - depending on the Operating System) the uSD
+card prior to physically removing from SD card reader.
+
+Also see following section on switch setting used for booting using
+uSD card.
+
+.. note::
+  Great news! If the board has not been damaged physically, there's no
+  need to worry about it being "bricked" on this platform. You only have
+  to flash an uSD card, plug it in, and reinstall the image on eMMC. This
+  means that even if you make a mistake, you can quickly fix it and rest
+  easy.
+
+  If you are frequently working with uSD cards, you might find the
+  following useful:
+
+  * `USB-SD-Mux <https://www.linux-automation.com/en/products/usb-sd-mux.html>`_
+  * `SD-Wire <https://wiki.tizen.org/SDWire>`_
+
+Flash to eMMC
+-------------
+
+The eMMC layout selected is user-friendly for developers. The
+boot hardware partition of the eMMC only contains the fixed-size
+tiboot3.bin image. This is because the contents of the boot partitions
+need to run from the SoC's internal SRAM, which remains a fixed size
+constant. The other components of the boot sequence, such as tispl.bin
+and u-boot.img, are located in the /BOOT partition in the User Defined
+Area (UDA) hardware partition of the eMMC. These components can vary
+significantly in size. The choice of keeping tiboot3.bin in boot0 or
+boot1 partition depends on A/B update requirements.
+
+.. image:: img/beagleplay_emmc.svg
+  :alt: eMMC partitions and boot file organization for BeagleBone AI-64
+
+The following are the steps from Linux shell to program eMMC:
+
+.. prompt:: bash #
+
+  # Enable Boot0 boot
+  mmc bootpart enable 1 2 /dev/mmcblk0
+  mmc bootbus set single_backward x1 x8 /dev/mmcblk0
+  mmc hwreset enable /dev/mmcblk0
+
+  # Clear eMMC boot0
+  echo '0' >> /sys/class/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
+  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0 count=32 bs=128k
+  # Write tiboot3.bin
+  dd if=tiboot3.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0 bs=128k
+
+  # Copy the rest of the boot binaries
+  mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /boot/firmware
+  cp tispl.bin /boot/firmware
+  cp u-boot.img /boot/firmware
+  sync
+
+.. warning ::
+
+  U-Boot is configured to prioritize booting from an SD card if it
+  detects a valid boot partition and boot files on it, even if the
+  system initially booted from eMMC. The boot order is set as follows:
+
+  * SD/MMC
+  * eMMC
+  * USB
+  * PXE
+
+LED patterns during boot
+------------------------
+
+.. list-table:: USR LED status indication
+   :widths: 16 16
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - USR LEDs (012345)
+     - Indicates
+
+   * - 00000
+     - Boot failure or R5 image not started up
+
+   * - 11111
+     - A53 SPL/U-boot has started up
+
+   * - 10101
+     - OS boot process has been initiated
+
+   * - 01010
+     - OS boot process failed and drops to U-Boot shell
+
+.. note ::
+
+  In the table above, 0 indicates LED switched off and 1 indicates LED
+  switched ON.
+
+.. warning ::
+
+  The green LED very next to the serial connector labelled "WKUP UART0"
+  is the power LED (LED6). This is the same color as the rest of the USR
+  LEDs. If the "green" LED6 power LED is not glowing, the system power
+  supply is not functional. Please refer to `BeagleBone AI-64 documentation
+  <https://beagleboard.org/ai-64/>`_ for further information.
+
+Switch Setting for Boot Mode
+----------------------------
+
+The boot time option is configured via "BOOT" button on the board.
+See `BeagleBone AI-64 Schematics <https://git.beagleboard.org/beagleboard/beaglebone-ai-64/-/blob/main/BeagleBone_AI-64_SCH.pdf>`_
+for details.
+
+.. list-table:: Boot Modes
+   :widths: 16 16 16
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - BOOT Switch Position
+     - Primary Boot
+     - Secondary Boot
+
+   * - Not Pressed
+     - eMMC
+     - SD Card
+
+   * - Pressed
+     - SD Card
+     - SD Card
+
+To switch to SD card boot mode, hold the BOOT button while powering on
+with Type-C power supply, then release when power LED lights up.
+
+Debugging U-Boot
+----------------
+
+See :ref:`Common Debugging environment - OpenOCD<k3_rst_refer_openocd>`: for
+detailed setup and debugging information.
+
+.. warning::
+
+  **OpenOCD support since**: v0.12.0
+
+  If the default package version of OpenOCD in your development
+  environment's distribution needs to be updated, it might be necessary to
+  build OpenOCD from the source.
+
+.. include::  ../ti/k3.rst
+    :start-after: .. k3_rst_include_start_openocd_connect_tag_connect
+    :end-before: .. k3_rst_include_end_openocd_connect_tag_connect
+
+.. include::  ../ti/k3.rst
+    :start-after: .. k3_rst_include_start_openocd_cfg_external_intro
+    :end-before: .. k3_rst_include_end_openocd_cfg_external_intro
+
+For example, with BeagleBone AI-64 (J721e platform), the openocd_connect.cfg:
+
+.. code-block:: tcl
+
+  # TUMPA example:
+  # http://www.tiaowiki.com/w/TIAO_USB_Multi_Protocol_Adapter_User's_Manual
+  source [find interface/ftdi/tumpa.cfg]
+
+  transport select jtag
+
+  # default JTAG configuration has only SRST and no TRST
+  reset_config srst_only srst_push_pull
+
+  # delay after SRST goes inactive
+  adapter srst delay 20
+
+  if { ![info exists SOC] } {
+    # Set the SoC of interest
+    set SOC j721e
+  }
+
+  source [find target/ti_k3.cfg]
+
+  ftdi tdo_sample_edge falling
+
+  # Speeds for FT2232H are in multiples of 2, and 32MHz is tops
+  # max speed we seem to achieve is ~20MHz.. so we pick 16MHz
+  adapter speed 16000
