Hi Marcos and all,

As you suggested me I took StarterWare as reference and writing
function prototypes. I hosted my blog for PWM driver  development
tracking so I can note down my day to day work and you can easily read
in which direction I am working.
I will update this frequently. You can visit this link.

 http://punitvara.github.io/rtems%20drivers/2016/02/28/basic-function

Please review my post and suggest me if improvement is needed in
function prototypes. I hope it is easier way for you to evaluate and
review my work. :-)

Thanks,
Punit

 Hello Punit and all,

 According to me, Punit you must have completed some gpio test through 
 gpio API that was merged last year. So till the final result of 
 accepted student you can start working with PWM driver that plays an 
 important role for any embedded project. This would be a good 
 kick-start for you as well as a strong reason to showcase in your 
 proposal. Try to give hardware test and post the video if possible.

 Coming to further I2C and SPI can be next milestones. To me these 
 should be at the highest priorities. I had done I2C driver but was not 
 able to make the hardware test. So you can also refer that and come up 
 with the output along with best modifications.

 Next target you can set for SPI after both drivers are tested and 
 committed.

 For the references you can always have a loot at code of GPIO 
 API,MINIX,FreeBSD for BBB drivers.

 Any suggestions ?

 In case of any queries you can always ping.

 Cheers,

 Let me reach out to Ketul and see if a private ping helps.

 Start with the assumption that USB needs work. That involves the 
 rtems-libbsd tree and
 there is likely code to import from FreeBSD that will help a lot.

 SPI and i2c are close to one another in my understanding. Likely 
 Ketul is referring to changes
 in the RTEMS i2c interfaces.

 My recollection is that the NIC had performance issues based on 
 the version of U-Boot
 used. There was some traffic at the end of GSoC about this. I 
 don't know if it was
 ever resolved.  But the NIC should work. Maybe worth benchmarking.

 Marcos.. does this mean that the BBB i2c is complete now?

 And is my understanding that this covers SPI correct?

 What else on the BBB

 We had more of these problems when trying to use I2C. It was fixed

Don't forget that TI has some baremetal drivers (StarterWare) for
beagle bone. You can base your work with it.

 Marcos.. does this mean that the BBB i2c is complete now?

 And is my understanding that this covers SPI correct?

 What else on the BBB is left?

 I have added Ben Gras. He knows more about the BBB than anyone. I 
 am unsure what is left
 to do. Have you compared the status of last year's projects versus 
 the git repository?

 We had more of these problems when trying to use I2C. It was fixed in
 https://git.rtems.org/rtems/commit/?id=8c5c53f4788eb74264a053f8293fed26da85b764.

 Hello Punit and all,

 According to me, Punit you must have completed some gpio test through gpio 
 API that was merged last year. So till the final result of accepted 
 student you can start working with PWM driver that plays an important role 
 for any embedded project. This would be a good kick-start for you as well 
 as a strong reason to showcase in your proposal. Try to give hardware test

 Coming to further I2C and SPI can be next milestones. To me these should 
 be at the highest priorities. I had done I2C driver but was not able to 
 make the hardware test. So you can also refer that and come up with the 
 output along with best modifications.

 Next target you can set for SPI after both drivers are tested and 
 committed.

 For the references you can always have a loot at code of GPIO 
 API,MINIX,FreeBSD for BBB drivers.

 Any suggestions ?

 In case of any queries you can always ping.

 Let me reach out to Ketul and see if a private ping helps.

 Start with the assumption that USB needs work. That involves the 
 rtems-libbsd tree and
 there is likely code to import from FreeBSD that will help a lot.

 SPI and i2c are close to one another in my understanding. Likely Ketul 
 is referring to changes
 in the RTEMS i2c interfaces.

 My recollection is that the NIC had performance issues based on the 
 version of U-Boot
 used. There was some traffic at the end of GSoC about this. I don't 
 know if it was
 ever resolved.  But the NIC should work. Maybe worth benchmarking.

Re: BBB GSoC Projects was Re: Gsoc 2016 project proposal

[Marcos Díaz]

We use I2c but using drivers from TI's baremetal drivers they provide in
their StarterWare software suite.
So, currently we cannot commit that into RTEMS.
But those drivers should be very useful to port to RTEMS.

And is my understanding that this covers SPI correct?

Let me reach out to Ketul and see if a private ping helps.

Start with the assumption that USB needs work. That involves the
rtems-libbsd tree and
there is likely code to import from FreeBSD that will help a lot.

SPI and i2c are close to one another in my understanding. Likely Ketul is
referring to changes
in the RTEMS i2c interfaces.

My recollection is that the NIC had performance issues based on the version
of U-Boot
used. There was some traffic at the end of GSoC about this. I don't know if
it was
ever resolved.  But the NIC should work. Maybe worth benchmarking.

I am interested in following projects apart from BBB BSP :

1. Improve Posix compliance
2.  TCP/IP stack update (Please suggest me more readings for this)

What are the prerequisites I need to do to improve my chances ? please let
