APF6 eMMC layout
By default, the 4GB eMMC on APF6 board has 4 physical/hardware partitions:
Boot0 | Boot1 | RPMB | User Data |
Name | U-Boot name | Size | Comment |
---|---|---|---|
boot0 | mmc dev 0 1 | 2MBytes | U-Boot is installed on this partition |
boot1 | mmc dev 0 2 | 2MBytes | Not used |
rpmb | mmc dev 0 3 | 512KBytes | Not used |
User Data | mmc dev 0 0 | remaining space | Kernel, device tree and rootfs |
Boot0 partition layout
. | SPL | IMG | ... | ENV1 | ... | ENV2 | ... |
- Linux device: /dev/mmcblk2boot0

User Data partition layout
There are two primary partitions on the "User Data" physical partition:
... | Boot | Rootfs |
Name | U-Boot device | Linux device | Offset (bytes) | Offset (blocks) | Size | Comment |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
MBR | NA | NA | 0 | 0 | 512 bytes (1 block) | Master Boot Record. (Don't touch it :-) ) |
... | NA | NA | 512 | 1 | ~1 MBytes (2047 blocks) | Free |
Boot | mmc 0:1 | /dev/mmcblk2p1 | 1M (0x100000) | 2048 (0x800) | 24 MBytes (49152 blocks) | The kernel and the device tree (inside a dtbs/ directory) are on this partition (ext4 formatted) |
Rootfs | mmc 0:2 | /dev/mmcblk2p2 | 25M (0x1900000) | 51200 (0xc800) | Rest of space (< 7682048 blocks) | the rootfs is on this partition (ext4 formatted) |
- By default, when flashed from U-Boot, rootfs and boot are only occupying the size of the .ext4 images used during flashing. If you want to increase the rootfs/boot size to all available free space then, after Linux has booted, use the following commands:
# resize2fs /dev/mmcblk2p1 # for Boot # resize2fs /dev/mmcblk2p2 # for Rootfs
Rootfs/Boot will then be extended to all the "Rootfs"/"Boot" eMMC partitions space.
