Building from source
The source code is available from:
Since GRUB2 is currently consumed directly from the Debian package, debian package rebuild instructions applies.
Build instructions
Prerequisites:
- GCC 5.3 cross-toolchain for Aarch64 available in your PATH
- You can download and use the Linaro GCC binary (Linaro GCC 5.3-2016.02), available at http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/5.3-2016.02/aarch64-linux-gnu/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz
- GCC 5.3 cross-toolchain for gnueabihf available in your PATH
- You can download and use the Linaro GCC binary (Linaro GCC 5.3-2016.02), available at http://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/binaries/5.3-2016.02/arm-linux-gnueabihf/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz
- GPT fdisk (gdisk package from your favorite distribution).
Installing pre-built toolchain(s)

Building EDK2/UEFI for HiKey
Building EDK2/UEFI is simple if built with the uefi-tools.sh script, since it already incorporates the platform specific configs and binaries.
To build EDK2/UEFI (use -b to select RELEASE or DEBUG build):
export AARCH64_TOOLCHAIN=GCC49
export EDK2_DIR=${PWD}/edk2
export ATF_DIR=${PWD}/arm-trusted-firmware
export UEFI_TOOLS_DIR=${PWD}/uefi-tools
cd ${EDK2_DIR}
rmdir OpenPlatformPkg; ln -s ../OpenPlatformPkg
${UEFI_TOOLS_DIR}/uefi-build.sh -b RELEASE -a ${ATF_DIR} hikey
And bl1.bin with l-loader (ptable files are also created as part of the l-loader Makefile):
cd ../l-loader
ln -s ${EDK2_DIR}/Build/HiKey/RELEASE_GCC49/FV/bl1.bin
ln -s ${EDK2_DIR}/Build/HiKey/RELEASE_GCC49/FV/fip.bin
make # requires sudo for creating the partition tables
The files 'fip.bin', 'l-loader.bin' and 'ptable-linux-8g.img' are now built. All the image files are in $BUILD/l-loader directory. The Fastboot App is at edk2/Build/HiKey/RELEASE_GCC49/AARCH64/AndroidFastbootApp.efi.
EFI boot partition
The boot partition is a 64MB FAT partition only contains fastboot.efi and GRUB2, since the grub.cfg, kernel, initrd and device tree are all loaded from the root file system (grubaa64.efi searches for rootfs label/boot/grub/grub.cfg).
wget https://builds.96boards.org/snapshots/reference-platform/components/grub/latest/grubaa64.efi
mkdir boot-fat
dd if=/dev/zero of=boot-fat.uefi.img bs=512 count=131072
sudo mkfs.fat -n "boot" boot-fat.uefi.img
sudo mount -o loop,rw,sync boot-fat.uefi.img boot-fat
sudo mkdir -p boot-fat/EFI/BOOT
sudo cp ${EDK2_DIR}/Build/HiKey/RELEASE_GCC49/AARCH64/AndroidFastbootApp.efi boot-fat/EFI/BOOT/fastboot.efi
sudo cp grubaa64.efi boot-fat/EFI/BOOT/grubaa64.efi
sudo umount boot-fat
sudo mv boot-fat.uefi.img hikey-boot-linux-VERSION.uefi.img
rm -rf boot-fat
Now just flash the recently created 'hikey-boot-linux-VERSION.uefi.img' with the same instructions as used with the pre-built binaries.
