MW 10:43 AM FPGA Development: RE: FPGA load verification
You might bring the DCM status lines (particularly the lock status) to a scope just to see if that is the core issue.

WC 03:12 PM FPGA Development: RE: FPGA load verification
Mike,
To my knowledge we're not changing the CPU frequency. That being said, one of the output messages during Linux boot is:
MityOMAPL138: setting max frequency to 456 MHz
But that doesn't necessarily mean the frequency was bum...

MW 01:09 PM FPGA Development: RE: FPGA load verification
Wade,
The EMIFA output clock can change if the OMAP-L138 CPU frequencies are modified (the EMIFA output clock is one of the SYSCLOCK divider outputs on PLL0).
Is it possible you are changing the CPU frequency or messing with the PL...

WC 12:28 PM FPGA Development: RE: FPGA load verification
Hi Mike,
Thanks for your response and troubleshooting suggestions.
To answer your questions:
*Are you using a DCM or PLL? What is your clock source?*
I'm using a DCM as the clock source. Its source is the 100MHz EMIFA clock and...

MW 12:12 PM FPGA Development: RE: FPGA load verification
Hi Wade,
If you are getting the "done" light on the part, then the FPGA is loading correctly and it's 99.99999999999% likely a logic, or more likely a logic reset condition in the code. I only say this because we have never had a pro...

MW 03:48 PM Software Development: RE: GPIO interrupt in MityOMAP-L138F
I am glad you were able to figure this out, and these notes are helpful. Thanks for posting them.
We have been struggling for the DSP to sort out an easier way to track and validate the IRQ routing for the DSP application. The DSPLI...

MC 02:58 PM Software Development: RE: GPIO interrupt in MityOMAP-L138F
Hi Mike,
I successfully implemented an interrupt example using FPGA Gpio core and your core libraries on DSP.
Maybe is useful to someone to say how, because the documentation is too generic about this topic:
1- Assuming you have a ...

MW 07:08 AM Software Development: RE: ethernet over USB don't work
If you want to force HOST mode, then you will need to rebuild the kernel and change the call from:
mityomapl138_usb_init(MUSB_OTG);
to
mityomapl138_usb_init(MUSB_HOST);
This will force host mode in the driver. I think when y...

Hi François,
I am a newbie, and trying to create Upp Loopback with MityDSP1810F board.
Can you give your Upp Loopback source code.

DR 09:24 AM Software Development: RE: ethernet over USB don't work
I think you are using the wrong approach to do this. The RNDIS driver (g_ether.ko) is to allow IP over USB and is a USB peripheral (not host) driver. It sets the USB port on the ARM to look like a remote Ethernet adapter to a PC that i... David Rice

I'm using MityARM-1808 with my own carrier board.
It has a hi-speed USB 2.0 to ethernet controller(smsc7500) connected with USB0 on mityarm-1808.

You can use verilog, the Xilinx tools support it. However, all of our refernece code is in VHDL.
It may be possible (with a licensed version of the ISE or Vivado tools from Xilinx) to do a mixed mode synthesis, but I have not tried i...

QL 09:48 AM FPGA Development: Verilog codes for MityDSP-L138F
Hello,
I am a beginner with FPGA programming and MityDSP-L138F. I know the board currently uses VHDL. Can I write Verilog code for the board? If so, what do I need? I appreciate your response.

I tried:
-shreg_extract = checked
-shreg_min_size = 5
No difference.
There is a DCM on i_ema_clk already.
Should there be a phase shift?
I sent you my project by email.
Let me know if you don't get it.

MW 04:28 PM FPGA Development: RE: OFFSET constraint never passes timing
If you have it disabled, then it won't happen. Try leaving it enabled and seeting min size to 5.
The other thing that could be done is to use a DCM on the EMIFA clock, which will allow you to deskew any delays in the clock routing.

EB 11:55 AM FPGA Development: RE: OFFSET constraint never passes timing
Thanks Mike,
In Synthesis Properties, HDL Options, I have:
-shreg_extract = unchecked
-shreg_min_size = 3
I see that IOB FFs are being used (unless the signal was trimmed).
I also see that output and io pins are set to slow slew, ...

Sorry about the -3 vs -2 issue. We will correct that on our next release. However, several designs have been validated and close using -2 speedgrade (you should be able to confirm that with the reference project, I think) using ISE 13.... Michael Williamson
EB 09:56 AM FPGA Development: RE: OFFSET constraint never passes timing
The paths that are failing are from the pads to the EMIF module, I don't have any code connecting there.
Also, the Industrial I/O project that I started with selected a -3 device.
You're shipping with -2 devices, so I changed to that...

MW 01:55 PM FPGA Development: RE: OFFSET constraint never passes timing
Hi,
Two things.
1) You don't need the OFFSET=OUT spec with our IP. It turns out there is an extra clock in the wait states for read cycles, so you really have 18 ns to get the data to the OMAP, not 8.
2) Check this "FPGA overvi...

You can also run "udevadm monitor" to watch for udev activity.

JC 01:29 PM Software Development: RE: SATA mount point
Scott,
I'm not sure whats going on. I can't explain why one would work as expected and the other doesn't. Its possible that udev is mounting sda to /media/sda. Trying running a 'grep -r /media/sda /' to see if you can find the file...

SW 11:44 AM Software Development: RE: SATA mount point
the mmc card does not affect the mounting. It behaves the same way with or without it. I don't know if there are any differences with the dev kits. They were all purchased around the same time. I have reflashed them with a new kernel ... Scott Whitney
JC 11:39 AM Software Development: RE: SATA mount point
Just as a curiousity, have you tried to see if adding/removing the mmc card affects how the sata drive mounts. Its the only thing I noticed different between the files you posted.
Are there any other differences between the dev kits ...

Could you attach your fstab for both machines as well as the output of 'fdisk -l'?

LM 06:31 PM Software Development: RE: USB on the go speed
Hi Mike,
It would be great if I can get a copy of your sample code! It would help tremendously if I can get close to 10MB/s transfer rates.
Thanks,

MW 05:03 PM Software Development: RE: USB on the go speed
Hi Lars,
We have found that RNDIS has been very slow as well and we have not used the serial gadget, but I would suggest that using larger packet sizes will help. We have used the gadgetfs driver with a camera product here and were a...

LM 04:20 PM Software Development: USB on the go speed
Hi,
When I configure Linux (3.2.0+) to use the ethernet gadget with RNDIS support, I get poor data transfer speeds. With data packet sizes aligned to the Ethernet packet size, we typically find speeds in the order of 0.6MB/s. That is pe...

Thanks for the update. I have created a task to enable SATA by default for the next MDK release. It was set in the old 2.6 kernel but was missed in the 3.2 update.
