[ECOS] Building eCos.

[ECOS] Building eCos.

[kalibar6]

Hi all,

I am trying to play a bit with eCos on STM32F4 Discovery board. I am
working under Ubuntu 12.04 (32bit). I know that in downloaded binaries
there is no support for this platform. I have to download source files from
CVS repository and compile them myself. OK. I have downloaded them:

cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs@ecos.sourceware.org:/cvs/ecos co -P ecos
cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs@ecos.sourceware.org:/cvs/ecos co -P host

System variable $ECOS_REPOSITORY has been set up to my downloaded files:
/home/kalbar/CVS_repo/ecos_host/packages

Now after multiple approaches I can't get this thing fully compiled and
installed. In main source folder I have created folder 'build' and run
configure script and make and install:

/home/kalbar/CVS_repo/ecos_host/configure
--prefix=/home/kalbar/CVS_repo/ecos_host/build --with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.4
--with-tk=/usr/lib/tk8.4
make
sudo make install


Some files are getting compiled/build but not all of them. There is still
lack of GUI for eCos configuration and package for for my board does not
seem to build. I would really appreciate some help on this matter as I have
spend quite a lot of time on this and got stuck in dead end with no help
from README files nor google.

Hello,

you prefer to work with Linux development host?
I think, I could provide a solution under Windows, but not with Linux.

Best Regards

[ECOS] Re: Building eCos.

[John Dallaway]

Hi

Since you are new to eCos, I would suggest downloading the latest
snapshot build of the eCos Configuration Tool for Linux hosts. Ref:

  http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2011-02/msg00031.html

You might also download the arm-eabi test release toolchain. Ref:

  https://www.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss/2012-06/msg00047.html

In the eCos Configuration Tool, set the eCos repository location (Build
>> Repository) as follows:

  /home/kalbar/CVS_repo/ecos_host

(this is the folder containing the "packages" folder)

You should then see the eCos configuration tree.

Select the STM32F4-Discovery hardware template (Build >> Templates).

Select the location of your arm-eabi toolchain "bin" folder containing
arm-eabi-gcc (Tools >> Paths >> Build Tools).

You should then be able to build eCos.

I hope this helps...

Wow! That was so easy and solved the problem. I still do not know why I could not compile the whole thing but it does not matter anymore. 

Thanks John.

[ECOS] RedBoot for Assabet (strongarm) problem

[todd.kallam]

Hi,

This looks like a similar problem that I had with the reset vector being
initiailized
to the wrong address.  You can tell by looking at the third line of your hex
dump.
The first entry shows the address of the the reset_vector and should be 0040
instead of 0060.

You can search the archives for more info about reset_vector and UNMAPPED_PRT
to find out more about this problem, but here are three solutions from Chris
Lesiak:

        1. Add the following to your hal_platform_setup.h file:
                #define CYGHWR_HAL_ROM_VADDR 0x50000000
        2. Change your binutils.  Binutils-011002 does not have this problem .
        3. Define CYGSEM_HAL_ROM_RESET_USES_JUMP (I haven't tried this myself.)

I used method 1 to fix my problem.

[ECOS] Building ecos

[RolandKane]

I am having a problem with Ecosconfig locating the rules.mak file. It is in
the path it is looking for. Also I mount the C: drive like instructed.
     bash-2.05$ mount -f c:/ /c

Re: [ECOS] Building ecos

[Julian Smart]

It could be that you're using a newer version of Cygwin that no longer recognises the //c notation. Please try the newer version of ecosconfig which can be found on the ftp site, inside the archive containing the updated Windows-only Configuration Tool. Sorry, I'm having trouble accessing the eCos pages right now so I can't give the exact URL.

Regards,

Julian

I think I tried that and decided it was a line-ending
thing. After dos2unixing all the source and make files,
that went away but a different bunch of errors started
popping up. It was as if there was a '\r' at the end of
some of the filenames, so make couldn't find them.

I never did get a full build on Unix, but didn't try
all that hard, since I'm just evaluating this stuff in
my "spare" time. I think my sources at the time were the
latest anoncvs ones (about a week ago), although I might
have been using the ones off the sourceware CD.

Yes. Most of the core eCos developers have been running various
versions of Red Hat Linux since the project began. Quite a few
application developers also use some flavour of Unix.

It looks like the toplevel makefile was generated correctly, but your
build tree should also contain a pkgconf sub-directory and the
pkgconf.mak file.

Please check the documentation I mentioned above. If that does not
help, please let me know the following:

1) your OS
2) the version of Tcl you are using
3) any output that pkgconf.tcl generates
4) what your build tree looks like after running pkgconf.tcl

It may be better to email me directly, I suspect the gory details are
not going to be particularly interesting for most people on the
mailing list.

What was the output of running pkgconf.tcl and how did you invoke it?

Is anyone building eCos under UNIX ?

If so, is there any documentation that describes how to do this.

If I try to use pkgconf.tcl to configure a build tree I just get:

% gmake
makefile:9: pkgconf/pkgconf.mak: No such file or directory
gmake: *** No rule to make target `pkgconf/pkgconf.mak'. Stop.
