- How to mount the root file system in uClinux/Blackfin
- -----------------------------------------------------
-
-1 Mounting EXT3 File system.
- ------------------------
-
- Creating an EXT3 File system for uClinux/Blackfin:
-
-
-Please follow the steps to form the EXT3 File system and mount the same as root
-file system.
-
-a Make an ext3 file system as large as you want the final root file
- system.
-
- mkfs.ext3 /dev/ram0 <your-rootfs-size-in-1k-blocks>
-
-b Mount this Empty file system on a free directory as:
-
- mount -t ext3 /dev/ram0 ./test
- where ./test is the empty directory.
-
-c Copy your root fs directory that you have so carefully made over.
-
- cp -af /tmp/my_final_rootfs_files/* ./test
-
- (For ex: cp -af uClinux-dist/romfs/* ./test)
-
-d If you have done everything right till now you should be able to see
- the required "root" dir's (that's etc, root, bin, lib, sbin...)
-
-e Now unmount the file system
-
- umount ./test
-
-f Create the root file system image.
-
- dd if=/dev/ram0 bs=1k count=<your-rootfs-size-in-1k-blocks> \
- > ext3fs.img
-
-
-Now you have to tell the kernel that will be mounting this file system as
-rootfs.
-So do a make menuconfig under kernel and select the Ext3 journaling file system
-support under File system --> submenu.
-
-
-2. Mounting EXT2 File system.
- -------------------------
-
-By default the ext2 file system image will be created if you invoke make from
-the top uClinux-dist directory.
-
-
-3. Mounting CRAMFS File System
- ----------------------------
-
-To create a CRAMFS file system image execute the command
-
- mkfs.cramfs ./test cramfs.img
-
- where ./test is the target directory.
-
-
-4. Mounting ROMFS File System
- --------------------------
-
-To create a ROMFS file system image execute the command
-
- genromfs -v -V "ROMdisk" -f romfs.img -d ./test
-
- where ./test is the target directory
-
-
-5. Mounting the JFFS2 Filesystem
- -----------------------------
-
-To create a compressed JFFS filesystem (JFFS2), please execute the command
-
- mkfs.jffs2 -d ./test -o jffs2.img
-
- where ./test is the target directory.
-
-However, please make sure the following is in your kernel config.
-
-/*
- * RAM/ROM/Flash chip drivers
- */
-#define CONFIG_MTD_CFI 1
-#define CONFIG_MTD_ROM 1
-/*
- * Mapping drivers for chip access
- */
-#define CONFIG_MTD_COMPLEX_MAPPINGS 1
-#define CONFIG_MTD_BF533 1
-#undef CONFIG_MTD_UCLINUX
-
-Through the u-boot boot loader, use the jffs2.img in the corresponding
-partition made in linux-2.6.x/drivers/mtd/maps/bf533_flash.c.
-
-NOTE - Currently the Flash driver is available only for EZKIT. Watch out for a
- STAMP driver soon.
-
-
-6. Mounting the NFS File system
- -----------------------------
-
- For mounting the NFS please do the following in the kernel config.
-
- In Networking Support --> Networking options --> TCP/IP networking -->
- IP: kernel level autoconfiguration
-
- Enable BOOTP Support.
-
- In Kernel hacking --> Compiled-in kernel boot parameter add the following
-
- root=/dev/nfs rw ip=bootp
-
- In File system --> Network File system, Enable
-
- NFS file system support --> NFSv3 client support
- Root File system on NFS
-
- in uClibc menuconfig, do the following
- In Networking Support
- enable Remote Procedure Call (RPC) support
- Full RPC Support
-
- On the Host side, ensure that /etc/dhcpd.conf looks something like this
-
- ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
- allow bootp;
- subnet 10.100.4.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
- default-lease-time 122209600;
- max-lease-time 31557600;
- group {
- host bf533 {
- hardware ethernet 00:CF:52:49:C3:01;
- fixed-address 10.100.4.50;
- option root-path "/home/nfsmount";
- }
- }
-
- ensure that /etc/exports looks something like this
- /home/nfsmount *(rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)
-
- run the following commands as root (may differ depending on your
- distribution) :
- - service nfs start
- - service portmap start
- - service dhcpd start
- - /usr/sbin/exportfs

+1. Blackfin GPIO introduction
+
+ There are many GPIO pins on Blackfin. Most of these pins are muxed to
+ multi-functions. They can be configured as peripheral, or just as GPIO,
+ configured to input with interrupt enabled, or output.
+
+ For detailed information, please see "arch/blackfin/kernel/bfin_gpio.c",
+ or the relevant HRM.
+
+
+2. Avoiding resource conflict
+
+ Followed function groups are used to avoiding resource conflict,
+ - Use the pin as peripheral,
+ int peripheral_request(unsigned short per, const char *label);
+ int peripheral_request_list(const unsigned short per[], const char *label);
+ void peripheral_free(unsigned short per);
+ void peripheral_free_list(const unsigned short per[]);
+ - Use the pin as GPIO,
+ int bfin_gpio_request(unsigned gpio, const char *label);
+ void bfin_gpio_free(unsigned gpio);
+ - Use the pin as GPIO interrupt,
+ int bfin_gpio_irq_request(unsigned gpio, const char *label);
+ void bfin_gpio_irq_free(unsigned gpio);
+
+ The request functions will record the function state for a certain pin,
+ the free functions will clear its function state.
+ Once a pin is requested, it can't be requested again before it is freed by
+ previous caller, otherwise kernel will dump stacks, and the request
+ function fail.
+ These functions are wrapped by other functions, most of the users need not
+ care.
+
+
+3. But there are some exceptions
+ - Kernel permit the identical GPIO be requested both as GPIO and GPIO
+ interrupt.
+ Some drivers, like gpio-keys, need this behavior. Kernel only print out
+ warning messages like,
+ bfin-gpio: GPIO 24 is already reserved by gpio-keys: BTN0, and you are
+configuring it as IRQ!
+
+ Note: Consider the case that, if there are two drivers need the
+ identical GPIO, one of them use it as GPIO, the other use it as
+ GPIO interrupt. This will really cause resource conflict. So if
+ there is any abnormal driver behavior, please check the bfin-gpio
+ warning messages.
+
+ - Kernel permit the identical GPIO be requested from the same driver twice.
+

+SPI Chip Select behavior:
+
+With the Blackfin on-chip SPI peripheral, there is some logic tied to the CPHA
+bit whether the Slave Select Line is controlled by hardware (CPHA=0) or
+controlled by software (CPHA=1). However, the Linux SPI bus driver assumes that
+the Slave Select is always under software control and being asserted during
+the entire SPI transfer. - And not just bits_per_word duration.
+
+In most cases you can utilize SPI MODE_3 instead of MODE_0 to work-around this
+behavior. If your SPI slave device in question requires SPI MODE_0 or MODE_2
+timing, you can utilize the GPIO controlled SPI Slave Select option instead.
+In this case, you should use GPIO based CS for all of your slaves and not just
+the ones using mode 0 or 2 in order to guarantee correct CS toggling behavior.
+
+You can even use the same pin whose peripheral role is a SSEL,
+but use it as a GPIO instead.

-How to lock your code in cache in uClinux/blackfin
---------------------------------------------------
-
-There are only a few steps required to lock your code into the cache.
-Currently you can lock the code by Way.
-
-Below are the interface provided for locking the cache.
-
-
-1. cache_grab_lock(int Ways);
-
-This function grab the lock for locking your code into the cache specified
-by Ways.
-
-
-2. cache_lock(int Ways);
-
-This function should be called after your critical code has been executed.
-Once the critical code exits, the code is now loaded into the cache. This
-function locks the code into the cache.
-
-
-So, the example sequence will be:
-
- cache_grab_lock(WAY0_L); /* Grab the lock */
-
- critical_code(); /* Execute the code of interest */
-
- cache_lock(WAY0_L); /* Lock the cache */
-
-Where WAY0_L signifies WAY0 locking.

- A Simple Guide to Configure KGDB
-
- Sonic Zhang <sonic.zhang@analog.com>
- Aug. 24th 2006
-
-
-This KGDB patch enables the kernel developer to do source level debugging on
-the kernel for the Blackfin architecture. The debugging works over either the
-ethernet interface or one of the uarts. Both software breakpoints and
-hardware breakpoints are supported in this version.
-http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=kgdb
-
-
-2 known issues:
-1. This bug:
- http://blackfin.uclinux.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=544&group_id=18&atid=145
- The GDB client for Blackfin uClinux causes incorrect values of local
- variables to be displayed when the user breaks the running of kernel in GDB.
-2. Because of a hardware bug in Blackfin 533 v1.0.3:
- 05000067 - Watchpoints (Hardware Breakpoints) are not supported
- Hardware breakpoints cannot be set properly.
-
-
-Debug over Ethernet:
-
-1. Compile and install the cross platform version of gdb for blackfin, which
- can be found at $(BINROOT)/bfin-elf-gdb.
-
-2. Apply this patch to the 2.6.x kernel. Select the menuconfig option under
- "Kernel hacking" -> "Kernel debugging" -> "KGDB: kernel debug with remote gdb".
- With this selected, option "Full Symbolic/Source Debugging support" and
- "Compile the kernel with frame pointers" are also selected.
-
-3. Select option "KGDB: connect over (Ethernet)". Add "kgdboe=@target-IP/,@host-IP/" to
- the option "Compiled-in Kernel Boot Parameter" under "Kernel hacking".
-
-4. Connect minicom to the serial port and boot the kernel image.
-
-5. Configure the IP "/> ifconfig eth0 target-IP"
-
-6. Start GDB client "bfin-elf-gdb vmlinux".
-
-7. Connect to the target "(gdb) target remote udp:target-IP:6443".
-
-8. Set software breakpoint "(gdb) break sys_open".
-
-9. Continue "(gdb) c".
-
-10. Run ls in the target console "/> ls".
-
-11. Breakpoint hits. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(..."
-
-12. Display local variables and function paramters.
- (*) This operation gives wrong results, see known issue 1.
-
-13. Single stepping "(gdb) si".
-
-14. Remove breakpoint 1. "(gdb) del 1"
-
-15. Set hardware breakpoint "(gdb) hbreak sys_open".
-
-16. Continue "(gdb) c".
-
-17. Run ls in the target console "/> ls".
-
-18. Hardware breakpoint hits. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(...".
- (*) This hardware breakpoint will not be hit, see known issue 2.
-
-19. Continue "(gdb) c".
-
-20. Interrupt the target in GDB "Ctrl+C".
-
-21. Detach from the target "(gdb) detach".
-
-22. Exit GDB "(gdb) quit".
-
-
-Debug over the UART:
-
-1. Compile and install the cross platform version of gdb for blackfin, which
- can be found at $(BINROOT)/bfin-elf-gdb.
-
-2. Apply this patch to the 2.6.x kernel. Select the menuconfig option under
- "Kernel hacking" -> "Kernel debugging" -> "KGDB: kernel debug with remote gdb".
- With this selected, option "Full Symbolic/Source Debugging support" and
- "Compile the kernel with frame pointers" are also selected.
-
-3. Select option "KGDB: connect over (UART)". Set "KGDB: UART port number" to be
- a different one from the console. Don't forget to change the mode of
- blackfin serial driver to PIO. Otherwise kgdb works incorrectly on UART.
-
-4. If you want connect to kgdb when the kernel boots, enable
- "KGDB: Wait for gdb connection early"
-
-5. Compile kernel.
-
-6. Connect minicom to the serial port of the console and boot the kernel image.
-
-7. Start GDB client "bfin-elf-gdb vmlinux".
-
-8. Set the baud rate in GDB "(gdb) set remotebaud 57600".
-
-9. Connect to the target on the second serial port "(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS1".
-
-10. Set software breakpoint "(gdb) break sys_open".
-
-11. Continue "(gdb) c".
-
-12. Run ls in the target console "/> ls".
-
-13. A breakpoint is hit. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(..."
-
-14. All other operations are the same as that in KGDB over Ethernet.
-
-
-Debug over the same UART as console:
-
-1. Compile and install the cross platform version of gdb for blackfin, which
- can be found at $(BINROOT)/bfin-elf-gdb.
-
-2. Apply this patch to the 2.6.x kernel. Select the menuconfig option under
- "Kernel hacking" -> "Kernel debugging" -> "KGDB: kernel debug with remote gdb".
- With this selected, option "Full Symbolic/Source Debugging support" and
- "Compile the kernel with frame pointers" are also selected.
-
-3. Select option "KGDB: connect over UART". Set "KGDB: UART port number" to console.
- Don't forget to change the mode of blackfin serial driver to PIO.
- Otherwise kgdb works incorrectly on UART.
-
-4. If you want connect to kgdb when the kernel boots, enable
- "KGDB: Wait for gdb connection early"
-
-5. Connect minicom to the serial port and boot the kernel image.
-
-6. (Optional) Ask target to wait for gdb connection by entering Ctrl+A. In minicom, you should enter Ctrl+A+A.
-
-7. Start GDB client "bfin-elf-gdb vmlinux".
-
-8. Set the baud rate in GDB "(gdb) set remotebaud 57600".
-
-9. Connect to the target "(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0".
-
-10. Set software breakpoint "(gdb) break sys_open".
-
-11. Continue "(gdb) c". Then enter Ctrl+C twice to stop GDB connection.
-
-12. Run ls in the target console "/> ls". Dummy string can be seen on the console.
-
-13. Then connect the gdb to target again. "(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0".
- Now you will find a breakpoint is hit. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(..."
-
-14. All other operations are the same as that in KGDB over Ethernet. The only
- difference is that after continue command in GDB, please stop GDB
- connection by 2 "Ctrl+C"s and connect again after breakpoints are hit or
- Ctrl+A is entered.
