[casper] ML-605 board

2019-04-16 Thread John Ford
Hi all. Does anyone have a Xilinx ML605 board that I could borrow for a couple of months, or one you'd like to sell? And its companion FMC breakout board, the XM-105. We are developing some custom hardware, and one of our ML-605 boards we are using for debugging another part of the system is

Hi all. I'm designing an FPGA based instrument control system with a gigabit Ethernet port. It should be easy to make this work, but alas, it's giving me fits. I have a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA on the board, driving a TI PHY using the RGMII interface from the Xilinx tri-mode Ethernet MAC core. It

Hi Mark. Since the newer version has a script called "hashpipe_irqaffinity.sh" I would think that the most expedient thing to do is to upgrade to the newer version. It's likely to fix some or all of this. That said, there are a lot of things that you can check, and not only the irq affinity,

Hi Mark. Spelunking through the hashpipe_pktsock.h header file I see that #define PKT_UDP_DATA(p) (PKT_NET(p) + 0x1c) In your code you posted earlier, you have this: memcpy(dest_p, payload, PKT_UDP_SIZE(frame) - 16) // Ignore both UDP (8 bytes) and packet header (8 bytes) Have you verified

Hi. Since you can receive 1500 packets error-free, it seems like your PC is getting more data than it can handle and starts losing packets.As Jack says, the PPC doesn't get involved in it at all. Using small packets like you are using makes for more work on the PC side, as many more
