Hi!

I searched the web site a bit and downloaded the last few months of
traffic from this list, but I didn't find much about the Blackfin STAMP
board.  Specifically, I tried
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/project%2Fstamp but that gives me a Not

I see that there are various adi-linux, adi-toolchain, etc. projects
on SourceForge.  Do I use them instead of the main uclinux distribution
or in addition to it?

Is this the correct list for this question?  Is there a better place?

Thanks,

Re: [uClinux-dev] libgmp compile errors

2013-12-04 Thread Michael Durrant

Ted,

I notice your gcc is set to a default Coldfire -m5307 .. but you are making use 
of a MCF5329 processor.  I think it is more correct to use -mcpu=5329 for the 
MCF532x CPUs.

 I have a 4.7MB application that runs on the 2.6.26 kernel (Freescale BSP)

38 kernel appears to be using 2^n memory allocation vs. allocation that sizes just 
1-page over the application.

 1) Can anyone tell me the exact kernel config name that needs to be 
adjusted for the 38 kernel to set the default memory allocation?
   - Older posts indicate modules like page_alloc2 or Kmalloc2 control 
this so I'm going to investigate these in more detail
   - RTFMing indicate that this might be the area but I don't see it 
in the 38 version (LTIB or make menucionfig):
   menuconfig - kernel settings - general settings, try enabling either the 
Permit large allocations setting, or the non-power-of-2

 2) Historically, we use LTIB to create the kernel.  Does LTIB expose 
most/all settings of the 2.6.38 kernel?  Can it be out of sync with the make 
menuconfig uClinus kernel?

Maybe this changed the behaviour you see:

commit fc4d5c292b68ef02514d2072dcbf82d090c34875
Author: David Howells dhowe...@redhat.com mailto:dhowe...@redhat.com
Date:   Wed May 6 16:03:05 2009 -0700

nommu: make the initial mmap allocation excess behaviour Kconfig 
configurable

NOMMU mmap() has an option controlled by a sysctl variable that 
determines
whether the allocations made by do_mmap_private() should have the excess
space trimmed off and returned to the allocator.  Make the initial 
setting
of this variable a Kconfig configuration option.

The reason there can be excess space is that the allocator only 
allocates
in power-of-2 size chunks, but mmap()'s can be made in sizes that 
aren't a
power of 2.

There are two alternatives:

 (1) Keep the excess as dead space.  The dead space then remains unused 
for the
 lifetime of the mapping.  Mappings of shared objects such as libc, 
ld.so
 or busybox's text segment may retain their dead space forever.

 (2) Return the excess to the allocator.  This means that the dead 
space is
 limited to less than a page per mapping, but it means that for a 
transient
 process, there's more chance of fragmentation as the excess space 
may be
 reused fairly quickly.

During the boot process, a lot of transient processes are created, and
this can cause a lot of fragmentation as the pagecache and various slabs
grow greatly during this time.

By turning off the trimming of excess space during boot and disabling
batching of frees, Coldfire can manage to boot.

A better way of doing things might be to have /sbin/init turn this 
option
off.  By that point libc, ld.so and init - which are all long-duration
processes - have all been loaded and trimmed.

After all before this commit, trimming after allocating was always done.
Now it is only done if you enable this CONFIG, or set the sysctl flag
at runtime, which of course affects behaviour for all allocations after
you change the setting.

 I am assuming that you are using a boot loader and that the kernel is

 suspect the boot loader was loading a splash screen before it loads

Re: [uClinux-dev] ltib vs uclinux-dist

2009-08-12 Thread Michael Durrant
Philippe,


These are all good questions.  Here at the office we make use of both
Freescale's LTIB release and the uClinux-dist release.  When Freescale
releases a new part and matching evaluation board they will release it
with a tool chain (from CodeSourcery) and an LTIB that is aware of the
new CPU and Board.


Kernel
==

Typically the LTIB released kernels for their MMU-less processors are
not the most current and may be several version behind the main Linux
tree and Greg's uClinux kernel releases.   Given the lag in kernel
version those that need to use the most recent CPU's may need to use the
older LTIB released kernel as Freescales releases are not in sync with
Greg uClinux nor Linus's kernel trees.   Once forward porting of the CPU
and Board support from LTIB's kernel release to the uClinux and Linux
trees, it become easier to make use of the uClinux kernel than the older
kernel from LTIB. This is also true of some driver support between
kernels as well.


User Applications
=

The LTIB released user applications are a collection of public packaged
user apps that are well used on MMU-full processors ARM/PowerPC etc.  In
many cases these applications are full featured (read big) and not
always optimized to reduce their size and functionality typically needed
for embedded use.  While you can modify the source, the LTIB frame work
takes a far bit to get up to speed with.  If you have the opportunity
you can contact your Freescale reps and they can point you to a few
online resources (Freescale's Virtual FTF is one) that walk you through
how to use LTIB to build and deploy images for their evaluation boards.

Where as the uClinux-dist has a collection of applications that have for
the most part been reduced in functionality and size to fit better on an
embedded device.  That said their many be a few applications that may be
kernel version and C Library specific in their functionality. This is in
part as the uClinux-dist had attempted to allow support to earlier 2.0,
2.4 and 2.6 kernels.


Tool Chains and Libraries
=

The C library and build tools such as uClibc, glibc, GCC, etc  are all
available in source and can be recompiled to enable and disable features
as well as allow you to alter install paths.  At the office we have used
the Freescale release toolchains on both LTIB and the uClinux-dist wish
success. That said we do eventually end up changing the configuration,
install path etc to keep the compiler, C library and Kernel in sync.

Re: [uClinux-dev] Moving to new kernel distro

2009-05-14 Thread Michael Durrant
Roger,


The MCF5328, MCF53281, MCF5329 processors are all supported in kernels
greater than 2.6.21.  Freescale's LTIB Kernel release is not in sync
with the public kernel.  I understand that Freescale has both an OTG and
host USB driver written but their released patched for the OTG and the
patches for the host mode USB were not accepted by the Kernel USB
maintainers.  The uClinux-dist kernel release based on 2.6.21 we have
used at Arcturus Networks for our uC532x modules does support USB thumb
drives.  The patches we have tested from Freescale for USB in the newer
kernel versions extended support for mice, keyboards and other misc bits.

 I'm assuming we need to move to the 2.4 or 2.6 kernel to get support
 for the new processors and I'm trying to get a feel for how much work
 we will have in moving to a new kernel distribution.
 
 Generally yes. And for the newest processors you will need to move
 to 2.6. I haven't pushed new processor support into 2.4 kernels for
 a few years now either. (So for 5329 support you will need to use
 a 2.6 series kernel for example).
 
 
 I've downloaded a distro and tried to get it running on a 5407 eval
 board but have had no luck. 
 
 Have you tried the very latest dist with the very latest patch:
 
 http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/patches/uClinux-dist-20080808-20090423.patch.gz
 
 
 I recall a few console fixups recently that you may need
 in this patch.
 
 
 I was trying to use the 2.6 kernel and it appears the 5407EVB is not
 supported.
 
 I take it you mean the 5407C3 eval board?
 As far as I know that is the only eval board the for the 5407
 that Motorola/Freescale have ever produced?
 
 Its in the dist as the Freescale/M5407C3 target.
 
 
 I believe it's a config issue.  Has anybody tried this?
 
 Unfortunately my 5407C3 board no longer works, so it is not
 a board that I can regularly test anymore.
 
 But I would suggest trying out the patch above if you haven't
 already. Another thing to try would be hard configuring
 the RAM size in the kernel configs (incase the auto size
 detection is not working properly).
 
 
 Is there anywhere I can find an example of a workng configuration for
 the 5407EVB.
  
 If not, we are looking at getting a 5329 Eval board in house to look
 at.  
 I've seen some comments about USB problems with 5329.  Does anyone
 have any input on how well it supports LCD and USB operations and if
 the USB issues are still present?
 
 I coulnd't say, I don't have one of those either... :-)

 There isn't one for 2.6 kernels.
 
 I have only been issuing patches against each 2.6 kernel release.
 (And then trying hard to push patches to mainline each merge window
 to keep it up to date).
 
 Sorry to be obtuse but where on the uClinux home page are these
 patches? Do you keep the patches in CVS somewhere. I am interested in
 trying out 2.6 to see if i have the same NFS issue that we are trying
 to debug in 2.4.
 
 Thanks.

Re: [uClinux-dev] Application using I2C and SPI into the MCF 5282

2008-09-09 Thread Michael Durrant


David, 



I have asked one of our developers to assist you with this.  He will
also post to the list any examples and patches needed at it may assist
others that may be having similar issues with QSPI and I2C on the
MCF5282 processor.

Hello,

I am working in a controller using the motorola coldfire 5282 into the
uCevolution test board from Arcturus. In the last days, I downloaded the
uClinux-dist-2008-FEB-05-r0-release distribution from arcturus site.
It's working with the kernel 2.6, and I understand that this
distribution have a better support for i2c communication. I have been
tried to implement the i2c but I don't know how to do this.

I have configure Device Drivers
 I2C Support
m  I2C Support
  m I2C Device Interface
  I2C Hardware bus support ---
 m MCF Coldfire

Then I read from documentation inside the distribution
linux2.6/Documentation/i2c/dev-interfaceto use this protocol is
necessary only do this:

So let's say you want to access an i2c adapter from a C program. The
first thing to do is #include linux/i2c-dev.h. Please note that
there are two files named i2c-dev.h out there, one is distributed
with the Linux kernel and is meant to be included from kernel
driver code, the other one is distributed with lm_sensors and is
meant to be included from user-space programs. You obviously want
the second one here.

Now, you have to decide which adapter you want to access. You should
inspect /sys/class/i2c-dev/ to decide this. Adapter numbers are assigned
somewhat dynamically, so you can not even assume /dev/i2c-0 is the
first adapter.

Next thing, open the device file, as follows:
  int file;
  int adapter_nr = 2; /* probably dynamically determined */
  char filename[20];
  
  sprintf(filename,/dev/i2c-%d,adapter_nr);

  if ((file = open(filename,O_RDWR))  0) {
/* ERROR HANDLING; you can check errno to see what went wrong */
exit(1);
  }

When you have opened the device, you must specify with what device
address you want to communicate:
  int addr = 0x40; /* The I2C address */
  if (ioctl(file,I2C_SLAVE,addr)  0) {
/* ERROR HANDLING; you can check errno to see what went wrong */
exit(1);
  }




but this does not work, I need more documentation and if is possible a
example that can help me to make my work possible.


I have seen that can be load a module for i2c in the mcf called
i2c-mcf.c i load the module using insmod i2c-mcf.ko, but my question is
how i can use the function in that the module have, or how i  can use
the driver I am confuse.  



PLEASE HELP ME BECAUSE I AM HAVE STUCK IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A VERY
IMPORTANT PROJECT.

Re: [uClinux-dev] uCLinux web site down?

Hi to uClinux web masters.


Howdy Claude,

For some months ago I have noticed that there are periods of time in 
which accessing to uClinux web site is slow and often impossible. Is 
there any problem with the uClinux site server? Well, maybe the reason 
is that, since uClinux is a fantastic creation,  there are more and 
more developers that are discovering it and, thus, overloading the 
website to download the code. In that case, if there is any developer 
that has taken profit of uClinux and owns a web hosting business, 
please donate some servers to uClinux.org!!!  :-)


Donation to increase bandwidth for the project are always welcome.  



We have paid for additional bandwidth with iPower in the
past to off load some uClinux-dist traffic but iPower shut down
all large file transfers as our bandwidth use was being reported
as impacting other users of there webservers.   That was a sad
day!  Turns out several users in China and in Europe had been
using aggressive transfer methods and resulted in a denial of
service for iPower perhaps?  I am not sure as iPower was not
helpful in resolving the issue.  Their solution was to just disable
our account.   Again .. very sad.


To those who are already donating time, servers and band width:
our thanks goes to Analog Devices,  Arcturus Networks Inc.
and Secure Computing (SnapGear).


So if anyone knows of others who are willing to provide addition
bandwidth for the large file transfers please drop me an email
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  or give me a call at (416) 621 0125


Cheers,

Michael

Zitat von rwarner [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

I prefer #uclinux as this is much more intuitive than the hyphenated 
version.


  
No one uses either so it's really a moot issue.  Maybe a forum type 
setup with multiple areas to separate out some of the discussions.  I 
think the non-usage is due to the highly distributed nature of where we 
are all located.  ML or forum structure fits this best.  Problem with a 
ML is you get every single mail that may or may not pertain to something 
you are working on with respect to the uclinux dist and or kernel.  Note 
 other ML try to setup multiple ML, but this becomes unwieldy with any 
break down into upper level subject matter(s).


Some example forum topics would be 
eg 'NoMMU vs MMU', 'configuration' and 'patches' to name a few



My vote for #uclinux.

I would also consider asking the guys at Arcturus if they could add the
IRC channel info to the lists auto added footer somehow.

I think some of the reason none of the IRC's have picked up is because no
one knows about them,  and if they do a search they are likely to find
several and not know which one would work best for them.  I think
including it in the footer of all uClinux-dev mailings could help people
remember/locate it (I know it's extra noise in the mail but it wouldn't
bother me though), 
  


Will do

We have been filtering out and converting HTML to plain
text for a few years now.   But the conversion did not
properly catch all the tags in the conversion. So I
am on the side of educating posters to use plain text and
letting mailman do its best to convert for those that forget
from time to time.

 Many on the list are quite new to all of this so curt or rude

 Hi,
 Current link to uClinux-dist-20070130 has been broken at least for a week,
 so far. I cannot download it from www.uclinux.org/ports/coldfire page.

 There is a test distro but I want the latest complete one, which is 20070130
 and its patches. Actually I downloaded the test version but there's no way
 to run make menuconfig, so I imagine the next full distro will be fully
 functional. Till then, I'd like to work with the 20070130 distro.

 Does anybody know if some site update is being done these days? When will
 there be a full distribution available again?
 

Yes the bulk web server was migrated recently to a new machine
and this just finished the migration.

Re: [uClinux-dev] Appropriated Starter Kit to run uCLinux

2007-08-31 Thread Michael Durrant
Renato,

Do you have any specific features that you are looking
for in the target hardware?   Specifically if you would like
to learn more about uClinux for a project you have in mind,
you may wish to acquire a board with the features you need.

Freescale (ColdFire) and Analog Devices (BlackFin) offer
hardware that both companies are supporting.  Some hardware
is better supported by the community in the 2.4.x kernel
as it has been available for years.  Where as newer processors
are being released with only 2.6.x support.

Arcturus Network (where I work) also sells a few different
m68k and ColdFire modules.  Several people on the list
use these modules for development and embedded in shipping
products.   If you do a search through this lists archive you
will see them referred to as uCsimm or uCdimm(s).

Here is a web link to our website where we list the available
products and development kits. 
http://www.arcturusnetworks.com/products

Michael Durrant
