MW 02:07 PM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
Hi,
To get the spidev device, you need to add an entry for it in your platform baseboard file.
See the recent "industrial I/O board platform file":http://support.criticallink.com/gitweb/?p=linux-davinci.git;a=blob;f=arch/arm/mach-d...

Nope. I don't see that either.
I am going with the low level register access for now. I have SPI driver code that ran on a C6748 and am porting that. You can gain access to the registers using mmap().
Mary Frantz
GG 12:21 PM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
Hi Mary,
My guess would be that since in your baseboard file you set the modalias to "M25PE80" as part of the spi_board_info you will get a /dev/M25PE801.1 entry, or something to that affect, instead of /dev/spidev1.1.

MW 08:09 PM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: "Regarding Driving Displays in MitydspL138F Vision Devlopement Kit"
If both the LCD display and the display connected to the DVI interface can run using the timings (e.g., same resolution, same pixel clock rate, same front / back porch settings, same vertical refresh rate) then you should be able to run ... Michael Williamson
NK 02:15 AM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: "Regarding Driving Displays in MitydspL138F Vision Devlopement Kit"
Hi sir,
Initially our requirement is to drive two displays in MitydspL138F VDK.
In Mitydsp L138F based vision development kit datasheets it was given LCD panel interface and DVI interface are provided. Can we drive two displays bot...

I read through the section for the Cyclone V on the HPS-FPGA AXI and the manual for the SDRAM that we are using but I can't find any info so I would appreciate your help.
I can get data stored in one location of the memory. But when I...

You can do it in the DSP using tcDspSyscfg::SetMasterPriority() in the dsp core library.

Thanks for those suggestions, Mike. According to Table 11-2, the default priority for EDMA is 0 (highest) and for ARM instruction and data is 2 (lower). When I look at these registers in debug mode (DSP), I see these default priorities... Steven Hill
MW 08:40 AM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) FPGA Development: RE: JFFS2 driver errors
Hi Steven,
Is the DMA priority configured higher than the ARM data access priority in the Master Priority Configuration registers (see the OMAP-L138 Technical Reference Manual regarding DMA bus mastering priority)?
We have seen FPG...

Hi Jack,
Perhaps the project was corrupted when you upgraded it to the 13.1 tools. I've attached a copy of the project that has been successfully upgraded to build in the 13.1 tools.
Let us know if you have any issues.
Thanks...

Hi Mike,
Can you provide for me the exact product number for the Micron SDRAM on board. I need information on the timing parameters for those memories.
Thanks!

Hi Greg,
I am using 13.1 Quartus, and I ran the script that you recommended and the error that I sent you was what I got after I ran the script. So it's not from the compiling part, but just the script.
Thanks!

GG 02:08 PM MitySOM-5CSX Altera Cyclone V FPGA Development: RE: Quartus II Subscription Edition Error
Hi Jack,
Are those the same errors you were receiving before? And typically when Quartus reports an error there is a plus symbol next to it that you can use to expand the error message and get more details. Could you provide us with ...

I tried running the tcl script and it didn't work.
The errors are:
Error: Quartus II 64-Bit TimeQuest Timing Analyzer was unsuccessful. 1 error, 0 warnings
Error: Peak virtual memory: 368 megabytes

Hi Jack,
What version of the Quartus tools are you using?
That project was built with the 13.0 sp1 tools. If you've updated it to the 13.1 tools you probably need to run the hps_sdram_p0_pin_assignments.tcl. Select Tools -> Tcl Sc...

MW 07:14 AM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: Compiling the HelloWorld application with CGT
You should dump out the full build texts between the two operations and compare.
I suspect that the memory configuration templates (which define the shared regions for DSPLINK) are somehow not the same between the 2 builds.

Hi,
How can I configure the FPGA such that the ethernet will still be functioning after I program it. I notice that the ethernet is down after I load the fpga.
Cheers,

Hi,
Where is the clock on the MityArm?
I am using your mityarm_5csx_dev_board project, and it's not there. Could you provide me the pin assignment for your clock please?
Thanks!
