eMMC Memory Layout

Table 3-1 eMMC Layout for Primary and Backup Boot Mode
eMMC Layout Binaries Comment
Boot area partition for primary boot (raw mode) tiboot3.bin Offset: 0x0
tifs.bin Offset: 0x400
app Offset: 0x1400
User data area for backup boot (file system) tiboot3.bin

User data area (file system) lateapp1 Common for primary and backup boot mode
lateapp2
atf_optee.appimage
ifs_qnx.appimage

Primary and backup applications (bootapps) must load the specified binaries from the eMMC User Data Area (UDA) partition.

  • lateapp1
  • lateapp2
  • atf_optee.appimage
  • ifs_qnx.appimage

This arrangement provides a consistent runtime environment regardless of which boot path is taken.
