I usually send people here:

https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/CodeGenerationTools.htm

There are downloads for both Linux and Windows and none of them say "eval".

Subject: RE: system() and Codec Engine

Thank you Chris, that is very helpful. Especially the wiki "what to use with 
what" link.

One last thing I've never been sure of is how do you update cgtools? The guy 
who setup this machine that I am using is long gone from our company so I never 
saw where it originally came from. I'm guessing the DVSDK cd we got. I'm 
curious if you can download later versions from TI through myTI account or 
something. I did however run across this site:

https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/LinuxDspTools/download.html

The only thing that makes me a little suspicious is that all the download links 
list eval on the file names. I also don't know if you can use these 
commercially then.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Josh

Link releases are here:
https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/link/index.html

When updating Link, you'll likely need to update Codec Engine as well:
https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/CE/index.html

The 'what to use with what' is described here:
http://wiki.davincidsp.com/index.php?title=Codec_Engine_Roadmap

To minimize disruption to your particular environment, I'd recommend the CE 
2.10.02/Link 1.50 pair.  (CE 2.20 is OMAP devices only, and CE 2.21 will 
require an update to a newer gcc toolchain).

Chris

Pardon me for asking,

But where can I find Link 1.50? Just going to the updates website at: 
http://www.ti.com/dvevmupdates

I see the latest DVSDK is 1.30.01.04. Inside this the release notes say that it 
is bundled with dsplink_140-05p1.

Is there a different download site for the latest codec engine utilities and 
such?

Thanks again,

Josh

Which version of Codec Engine/DSP Link are you using?  I think one of the Link 
releases had an issue when the apps used system() calls.

[ I want to say it was fixed in Link 1.50. ]

Subject: system() and Codec Engine
Hey guys,

I'm having a problem when using a system() C function call and the codec engine 
is running. I know inside a POSIX system(...) it essentially forks, execs, 
waitpid. From what I read a child process is spawned with the parent's copy of 
a data space, heap, and a stack.

Anyways when I call the system function WITHOUT the codec engine running it 
executes properly. Just for a test I do something very simple:

system("date > test.txt");

Now when I run that with the codec engine running in a separate thread, I get a 
kernel Oops Error and when the program goes to exit it freezes the davinci.

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address c4e06c8e
pgd = c06bc000

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Josh
