We use this feature all the time to keep our hal platform trees separate
from the CVS tree.  The last time I looked, it wasn't supported in the GUI
tool, but it works fine with the command line tool.

[ECOS] Problem with scanf and printf

[Tathagata Das]

Hi ,
    my scanf function is not working. Printf is working but after 
cyg_thread_delay call it is not working too.

Here is my configuration :
      
            CYGDAT_LIBC_STDIO_DEFAULT_CONSOLE = "/dev/ser0"            
            CYGPKG_IO_SERIAL_TTY = 1
            CYGPKG_IO_SERIAL_TTY_TTY0 = 0

             In Serial driver DEVTAB_ENTRY is like this

                   DEVTAB_ENTRY(   test_serial_iol,
                                                        "/dev/ser0",
                                                        0,
                                                        
&cyg_io_serial_devio,
                                                        tes_serial_init,
                                                        
test_serial_lookup,     // Serial driver may need initializing
                                                        
&test_serial_channel  );

If anyone has any idea please give me.

Thanks in advance.

How can you expect any real help from a message like this?
You've not told us anything about your problems:
* What's the platform?
* Have you made modifications to eCos [your own drivers, HAL, etc]?
* How does 'scanf()' fail?
etc

Without details, your query is pretty useless :-(

Re: [ECOS] Problem with scanf and printf

[Tathagata Das]

Sorry for short of information.

It is a new platform on MIPS.
So HAL is written by me and it is new. I am also writing a Serial driver 
for this new platform.
Printf is working if it is called from cyg_user_start function. But if I 
create one thread from cyg_user_start and in that thread if i call 
cyg_thread_delay
then after that print is not working. This is my problem number 1.
My second problem is scanf. I have noticed that when scanf is called, 
serial_read (packages/io/serial/v2_0/src/common/serial.c) is called with 
*len = 256.
Then cotrol stuck into the while loop (size < *len).
I tried to print out the value that I scanned but control does not come 
out from scanf function.

Hope this time I am clear.
If you need any more information please tell me

Regards
Tatha

[ECOS] Serial driver

[Tathagata Das]

Hi ,
        I am using two different IRQ number for RX and TX in serial driver.

My init function of serial driver looks like this ---

static bool test_serial_init(struct cyg_devtab_entry *tab)
{
        serial_channel *chan = (serial_channel *)tab->priv;
        (chan->callbacks->serial_init)(chan);  // Really only required 
for interrupt driven devices

        /* Allocate the IRQs */
        if (chan->out_cbuf.len != 0) {
                /* TX interrupt */
                cyg_drv_interrupt_create(TX_IRQ,
                                         0,                             
// IRQ priority
                                         (cyg_addrword_t)chan,          
// Data item passed to interrupt handler
                                         &test_tx_serial_ISR,
                                         &test_tx_serial_DSR,
                                         &tx_serial_interrupt_handle,
                                         &tx_serial_interrupt);
                cyg_drv_interrupt_attach(tx_serial_interrupt_handle);
                cyg_drv_interrupt_unmask(TX_IRQ);
        }
        if (chan->in_cbuf.len != 0) {
                /* RX interrupt */
                cyg_drv_interrupt_create(RX_IRQ,
                                         0,                             
// IRQ priority
                                         (cyg_addrword_t)chan,          
// Data item passed to interrupt handler
                                         &test_rx_serial_ISR,
                                         &test_rx_serial_DSR,
                                         &rx_serial_interrupt_handle,
                                         &rx_serial_interrupt);
                cyg_drv_interrupt_attach(rx_serial_interrupt_handle);
                cyg_drv_interrupt_unmask(RX_IRQ);
        }

        return true;
}

My problems are :

          1. when I press any key from keyboard test_rx_serial_ISR and 
test_rx_serial_DSR are called one by one.
                But that charcter is not displayed.
          2.  In scanf function --- control is stuck into " while (size 
< *len) {" this loop in serial_read function.

Here is my DSR for RX:

static void test_rx_serial_DSR(cyg_vector_t vector, cyg_ucount32 count, 
cyg_addrword_t data)
{
        serial_channel *chan = (serial_channel *)data;
        cyg_uint8 _c;
        unsigned int fifocnt;

        fifocnt = *FSTAT & RXFFLMASK;
        if(fifocnt--) {
                _c = *ASC_RBUF;
                (chan->callbacks->rcv_char)(chan, _c);
                /* I print this "_c" variable by diag_printf and I have 
seen it get correct key which I type from keyboard */

                /* RX happened ... so try to print that char */
                if(((*FSTAT & TXFFLMASK) >> TXFFLOFF) != TXFIFO_FULL) {
                        cbuf_t *tx_cbuf = &chan->out_cbuf;
                        diag_printf("TX: %d\n", tx_cbuf->nb);   /* I got 
0 here */
                        (chan->callbacks->xmt_char)(chan);  /* nothing 
is printed */
                }
        }

        cyg_drv_interrupt_unmask(RX_IRQ);
}

Thanks in advance

Tatha

You mean there is no echo? Do you have echo'ing enabled? Are you even
using the tty layer in eCos which provides echo support?

> < *len) {" this loop in serial_read function.
 
So this layer is trying to read a block of charactors, not a single
charactor read. Nothing wrong here.

You might want to read more of 
http://ecos.sourceware.org/docs-latest/ref/io-serial-driver-details.html

It sounds like you want to use the tty driver.

Re: [ECOS] Serial driver

[Tathagata Das]

Hi Andrew,
Thank you very much for your reply.
For my problem 1 :
  You are right. I want to echo that character. Please tell me how can I 
enable echo.
I am not using any tty layer.
I am sending you DEVTAB_ENTRY for your reference.

DEVTAB_ENTRY(   test_serial_iol,
                /dev/ser0,
                0,
                &cyg_io_serial_devio,
                test_serial_init,
                test_serial_lookup,     // Serial driver may need 
initializing
                &test_serial_channel
    );
I only use this single entry. Hope , i do not need two entries (one for 
RX and one for TX). Single entry should be good enough.

Also      CYGDAT_IO_SERIAL_TTY_CONSOLE = /dev/ser0
Please tell me how can I use tty layer so that I get the echo support.

For my problem 2 :
Yes you are again right. It tries to read a block. But why ?
My scanf is like this  ---- scanf("%c", &c); SO it should try to read 
single character.
But i have noticed that size = 256 in "while (size< *len) {".
Please tell me why the control does not come out and why I am not able 
to print the value of variable 'c'.

Thanks in advance

Regards,
Tatha

Read the documentation i pointed to.

The layer /dev/ser0 is a generic serial driver which you can build
anything over, eg slip, ppp, custom protocols, or tty drivers. What
you want is a tty driver, so you need the tty layer.

[ECOS] Disk support in RedBoot?

[Andy Jackson]

I've been trying to enable disk support in RedBoot and it appears that some 
of the components aren't present in the repository. For instance, the CDL 
file references fs/iso9660fs.c if support for ISO9660 filesystems is 
required, but there doesn't seem to be a file of that name. Similarly for 
FAT support, the required pieces don't seem to be present (where are 
CYGSEM_REDBOOT_DISK_FAT16 or redboot_fat16_funs defined for instance).

I'm sure that this is just me missing something obvious, so apologies in 
advance and thank your for all help received.

    Andy..

If i remember correctly, there was something dodge with the copyright
for the ISO9660 support, so it never made it into anoncvs. Searching
the mail archive might reveal more. Maybe that CDL should be
removed....

If i understand the architecture of redboot correctly, there are two
ways to access filesystems. 

I think you can just use the fileio layer to access any filesystem
which eCos supports via the fileio layer. So this should include FAT,
RAM, ROM and jffs2. 

Or you can use simplied versions of filesystems which are built
directly into Redboot and just implement read only support. This is
how ext2 works. Looking at the code, some point in the past there must
of also been support for FAT, but it looks like it never made it into
the anoncvs repository. Maybe the x-Cygnus x-Redhat guys can say more.

The initial ISO9660 stuff came along with the port to the PS/2, but it
was encumbered in some way by Sony and so we couldn't leave it it.

I think the CDL should stay, but require an implementation which
is not present.  At least this way, if someone can ever contribute
real support, we'll have the place holders for how it should be done,
etc.

Re: [ECOS] serial driver

[Michael Anburaj]

Hi,

>  btw, how can i debug the serial driver..? to track the bug..!!

<a generic embedded debug issue> If you have a JTAG probe connected to the 
board, then you  can look at the memory contents at the SFR register 
locations for the UART & make sure that you have written the right values. 
If you are sure about register values <like control, baud_div & other UART 
setup registers>, then simply supply those values from the memory window of 
AXD or ADW. After this you can write into the UART_TX SFR location some hex 
number, like 0x41 & make sure the char appears on the serial terminal 
connected to the UART port. If this does not work, then you should work on a 
small project --writing ROMable code for you board & adding support like 
LEDs & serial stuff <without the MMU>.

FYI: Prior to this you should make sure you have turned off WDT (if any), 
interrupts, configure BUS parameters, Clock control & other board 
requirements.

-Mike.

[ECOS] serial driver

[Satish Kumar]

Hi,
    i have built this redboot image for my arm926ej-s system board
which has a serial driver and ROM bootup. i have downloaded the 
redboot.bin in to the flash of the system board and trying to debug
the program using multiIce and ADS tool. 
    my hardware settings are correct and the uart program also seems
to be fine so far. i have also programmed the leds to know the break
in the flow.
             my program executes and remains in the loop where it is 
suppose to get user input after displaying "$Redboot>" hence it is in 
the infinite loop of the cyg_start func in redboot main.c

but, i see no output in my hyperterminal..my uart clk and all hardware
bits are set to proper value as required..the diagnostic output is
driven to the debug channel and my debug channel is configured to port
1..

i have no idea were can i be wrong, and what are the possibilities
to track the bug.

 now, if i burn the redboot.img file, my system just hangs, therez no
response...when power on..

 btw, how can i debug the serial driver..? to track the bug..!!


some one help me..its been a long time i m stuck in this prob..

satish

Please don't repeat questions. If they go unanswered, it's because

Hard to say without seeing the code. But I probably wouldn't have time
to read it anyway.

Chris>  What is the best way to do the debugging?

How about running the serial tests that come with eCos? There's a
testing infrastructure that does what you try to do, and more. See the
io/serial/current/tests/README file - which is a bit out of date, but
should guide you in the right direction.

[ECOS] serial driver

[Chris C.]

Hi
My target board is AT91EB40 but the source code is not same as the Redhat
eCos because I have done some port before eCos support it.

I have wrote a testing program which have 2 threads, transmit and receive,
are used to test the full duplex of the target board. In pc side, I have a
serial testing program used to do the testing. I did the 3 testing,
1. only transmit  to pc (in loop)
2. only receive from pc
3. transmit to (in loop) and receive from pc (hold on the enter key to send
a block of data)

In case 1 and 2, the serial driver can work fine but it can't work in case
3. The problem occured in case 3 was that it can work correctly within a
short time and then it can't do the transmit and receive. I use the Ctrl+C
to break the program, I always see it break in the idle_thread_main.

What is the possible problem that cause the program run into this function?
What is the best way to do the debugging?

Thanks!

[ECOS] Serial Driver

[Sebastien ANDRE]

Hi everybody !!


So i start a port of redboot, i need to redefines the serial driver

My custom board use a 16C750 UART (IRDA but not used as IRDA)
Somebody had already port it ? how must make it ? any guide lines ?

thx in advance !!

best regards,
Sebastien.
