from the BeagleBone/PRU rumor mill: - TI might free a gcc-based C compiler for the PRU
- There is an alternative interface to the PRU in the works (instead of pruss this uses the more sophisticated remoteproc interface, which is used for hooking in diverse external processors like DSP's) - the log below contains hints at an issue with the current pruss driver and memory coherency (which does not affect LinuxCNC but being one reason for pruss being replaced) here is an example: https://github.com/pantoniou/testpru - I understand from Pantelis that the PRU code in this example would be generated by that mythical compiler as an ELF format (which pasm, which we currently use, does not generate) that combination could lower the bar for PRU applications substantially below 'Steinkuehler-grade' ;) an IRC log is here http://static.mah.priv.at/public/beagle-irc.txt, the beagleboard.org IRC log is days behind the community factoid digging happens here - see posts near bottom of: http://www.element14.com/community/community/knode/single-board_computers/next-gen_beaglebone/blog/2013/05/22/bbb--working-with-the-pru-icssprussv2#comment-24397 -m ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
