How to setup a development environment
From IGEP - ISEE Wiki
This tutorial was written for the igep revB board, but it is transposable to other OMAP3530 boards (above all for the DSP part). It is a summary (with some adaptations) of several tutorials found on Internet (see References). All files will be installed in the $HOME directory.
This tutorial is a translation of a French tutorial we wrote on our robotic web site. Sorry for the English, feel free to correct mistakes.

Rootfs
This section describes how to obtain the Poky distribution. This is the distribution shipped with the igep boad; it is based on Open Embedded.
The first thing to do is set Bash as default sh shell:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
answer no to the question. Thus, "/bin/sh" will point towards "/bin/bash" (and not "/bin/dash"). Then, some kernels settings have to be changed. Edit the file "/etc/sysctl.conf" as root and set :
vm.mmap_min_addr = 0
then, to take the modification into account:
sudo sysctl -p
Some additional packages need to be installed to satisfy bitbake dependencies. First, add the following repositories to "/etc/apt/sources.list" :
deb http://debian.o-hand.com etch/ deb http://debian.o-hand.com unstable/ deb http://debian.o-hand.com feisty/ deb http://debian.o-hand.com gutsy/ deb http://debian.o-hand.com hardy/
Update the data base and install the following packages:
sudo apt-get update sudo aptitude install python-psyco hgsvn qemu poky-depends poky-scripts
Then, download and decompress the last stable version of Poky:
mkdir -p $HOME/igep/poky cd $HOME/igep/poky wget http://pokylinux.org/releases/poky-purple-3.2.tar.bz2 tar -xjf poky-purple-3.2.tar.bz2
The configuration file of Poky is located in the directory $HOME/igep/poky/build/conf :
cd build/conf nano local.conf
And paste the modified version for the igep board:

The following section needs to be adapted to the number of CPU the host machine has:

The build environment needs to be setup by the following command:
cd ../.. source poky-init-build-env
A target can be built using:
bitbake <target>
there is a lot of targets, which can be an image (take a look at the "meta/packages/images/" directory) or more simply a recipe corresponding to a software. A detailed list of images can be found on the Poky Handbook. To build an image without X11 server:
bitbake poky-image-base
This step is very long (several hours) and take a lot of space (like 16 gigas) on the host's hard disk. If you are behind a proxy, take a look at this part of Poky's FAQ.
If everything compiles well, the resulting image (rootfs and kernel) will be placed in the directory:
tmp-igep0020b/deploy/images/
and .ipk packages in:
tmp-igep0020b/deploy/ipk/
We will see in section Boot on rootfs and kernel how to use it. Yet, bitbake will download by default the kernel "linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-0" which is not the last one provided by ISEE. See section Kernel compilation to compile another version.
TODO: modify recipes to download another kernel version
Cross toolchain for the ARM
Aparently, there is a bug in one of Poky's recipes, which implies that the cross toolchain doesn't include automatically the C++ headers, see this thread. A patch has been proposed; to apply it :
cd $HOME/igep/poky wget http://lists.o-hand.com/poky/att-1420/fix-gxx-include-dir.patch patch -p1 < fix-gxx-include-dir.patch
The cross toolchain can be built using bitbake:
source poky-init-build-env bitbake meta-toolchain-sdk
The result will be placed in the directory:
tmp-igep0020b/deploy/sdk/
as an archive to decompress in the directory "/usr/local/poky".
In order to cross compile code for the ARM, the following script needs to be run to set up paths:
source /usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/environment-setup-arm-poky-linux-gnueabi
Kernel compilation
Currently, the last stable kernel provided by ISEE is "linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2". Check in the download section of www.myigep.com which is the last one. More recent versions (but unstable) can be downloaded on the git of ISEE.
Kernel compilation under bitbake
Kernel compilation outside bitbake
First, download the kernel sources:
cd $HOME/igep wget http://downloads.myigep.com/sources/kernel/linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2.tar.gz tar -xzf linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2.tar.gz cd linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2
Configure the kernel:
source /usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/environment-setup-arm-poky-linux-gnueabi make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- igep0020b_defconfig make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- menuconfig
The last line is only needed if you want to customize the kernel.
To compile kernel and modules:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- uImage modules
The resulting image is placed in "arch/arm/boot" directory.
We will see in the section Boot on the rootfs and the kernel how to use kernel and modules.
Boot on the rootfs and the kernel
There are several methods to do it. For developing purposes, the easiest way is to boot over network, which avoid flashing operations or coping on the memory card. Yet, these two solutions are essentials for applications where the board need to be independent from the host computer.
Over network
Two servers are needed. The NFS (Network File System) server allows the target to accede its rootfs by the network. The TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server allows the target to download the kernel over network. Thus, UBoot needs to be correctly setup to boot on the correct files. To do this, plug a serial cable on the board (115200n8) and stop UBoot by pressing a key. The environment variable of UBoot we need to change are:
- serverip: the server's IP address, need to be on the 192.168.254.x subred (except if you change the board address, which is not explained here). By default, the server's IP address is 192.168.254.10.
- distro: the distribution's name, by default poky.
- machine: the card's name, by default igep0020b.
- project: the project's name, that is to say the rootfs generated previously.
To change a variable, use the command setenv. Thus, to change the project's name and use the one we have just made, set:
setenv project poky-image-base
Then, to boot:
run bootcmd
which will execute the contents of the bootcmd variable. The 'printenv command allow to show the content of a variable; for example:
printenv bootcmd
returns by default:
run mmc-boot; run nfs-boot; run onenand-boot
That is to say the board will first check if a memory card is present to boot with it. If memory card is not present, the board will newt ping the server to boot over network. If server does not answer, the board will boot on the flash. Take a look at mmc-boot, nfs-boot and onenand-boot variables for more details. In addition, the factory settings of UBoot are given here.
In order to save UBoot environment variables in the flash, do:
saveenv
which will avoid to reenter it every time...
Once <serverip>, <distro>, <project>, and <machine> variables setup, UBoot will search on the server of address <serverip>:
- a kernel image uImage in the directory "/srv/tftp/<distro>/<project>/<machine>" accessible by TFTP.
- a rootfs in the directory "/srv/nfs/<distro>/<project>/<machine>" accessible by NFS.
We assume now that <distro>=poky, <project>=poky-image-base and <machine>=igep0020b.
Thus, create the following directories on the host:
sudo mkdir -p /srv/nfs/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b sudo mkdir -p /srv/tftp/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b
Next, copy the kernel. If it was made outside bitbake:
sudo cp $HOME/igep/linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2/arch/arm/boot/uImage /srv/tftp/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b/
or if it was made with the rootfs or underbitbake:
sudo cp $HOME/igep/poky/build/tmp-igep0020b/deploy/images/uImage /srv/tftp/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b/
Next, install the rootfs in the good directory:
pushd /srv/nfs/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b sudo cpio -idm< $HOME/igep/poky/build/tmp-igep0020b/deploy/images/poky-image-base-igep0020b.cpio popd
If kernel was built outside bitbake, install kernel modules in the rootfs as follows:
cd $HOME/igep/linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2 source /usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/environment-setup-arm-poky-linux-gnueabi make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/srv/nfs/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b
Finally, install the two servers on host:
sudo apt-get install tftpd nfs-kernel-server
By default, the TFTP server shares the "/srv/tftp" directory, which is the one we are using. If necessary, you can change this by editing the "/etc/inetd.conf" file :
#:BOOT: TFTP service is provided primarily for booting. Most sites # run this only on machines acting as "boot servers." tftp dgram udp wait nobody /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /srv/tftp
The configuration file of NFS server is "/etc/exports". Add the following line for each rootfs :
# Poky image rootfs /srv/nfs/<distro>/<project>/<machine> <target_ip>(rw,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,sync)
where <target_ip> is the ip address of the target. By default, igep address is 192.168.254.254. It is also possible to put * to allow a wider range of addresses. In our case, write :
/srv/nfs/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b 192.168.254.254(rw,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,sync)
Copy kernel and rootfs in flash memory
Copy can be done either from uboot or linux.
First step is to create the jffs2 file (if you do not have it), which will be used to copy the rootfs. The following package needs to be installed:
sudo apt-get install mtd-utils
Then use the command:
mkfs.jffs2 -r <root file system> -e <erase block size> -o <output file>
where <root file system> is the path to the directory to copy (ie /srv/nfs/poky/poky-image-base/igep0020b), <erase block size> is the block size to erase in KB and <output file> name of the output file. Block size can be seen with the following command:
cat /proc/mtd
On igep, it returns:
dev: size erasesize name mtd0: 00080000 00040000 "X-Loader" mtd1: 00180000 00040000 "U-Boot" mtd2: 00080000 00040000 "U-Boot Env" mtd3: 00300000 00040000 "Kernel" mtd4: 1fa80000 00040000 "File System"
Thus, the size is 0x40000=265KB.
Copy from uboot
Copy from linux
To do this, you will have to boot the card from nfs or memory card; but not from flash.
Partitions can be seen with the following command:
cat /proc/mtd
On igep, it returns:
dev: size erasesize name mtd0: 00080000 00040000 "X-Loader" mtd1: 00180000 00040000 "U-Boot" mtd2: 00080000 00040000 "U-Boot Env" mtd3: 00300000 00040000 "Kernel" mtd4: 1fa80000 00040000 "File System"
To copy the kernel, erase the corresponding memory area before doing the copy:
flash_eraseall /dev/mtd3 nandwrite -p /dev/mtd3 uImage
same thing for the rootfs
flash_eraseall /dev/mtd4 nandwrite -p /dev/mtd4 rootfs.jffs2
And now reboot. In case of errors (such as bad crc on the kernel for example), it is necessary to reflash all, see this.

Aller ensuite dans le répertoire $DSPLINK/dsp/src et faire :
make -s
de même dans le répertoire $DSPLINK/gpp/src :
make -s
ce qui aura pour effet de compiler le module dsplinkk.ko (dans le répertoire $DSPLINK/gpp/export/BIN/Linux/OMAP3530/RELEASE)
Des programmes exemples se trouvent dans les répertoires $DSPLINK/dsp/src/samples et $DSPLINK/gpp/src/samples, à compiler avec
make
CMEM
NOTE: les versions 2.25 et 2.25.01.06 ont des soucis au niveau des ioctl voir ici, ce qui affecte notamment les manipulations de cache (writeback et invalidate). La version 2.25.02.08 est sensée corriger cela (à tester). Sinon, travailler sur les versions 2.24
CMEM, ou contiguous memory manager permet d'allouer de la mémoire partagée entre ARM et DSP. Il fait partie des linuxutils, à télécharger ici. Aller dans le répertoire linuxutils_2_25_02_08/packages/ti/sdo/linuxutils/cmem et donner l'accès en écriture au fichier Rules.make :
chmod +w Rules.make
Puis éditer ce fichier et changer (adapter si besoin) :
# For "kernel_org" builds MVTOOL_PREFIX=/usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/bin/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- # Equivalent path for uClibc compiler tools UCTOOL_PREFIX=/usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/bin/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- # For OMAP3530 2.6.29 Linux kernel LINUXKERNEL_INSTALL_DIR=$(HOME)/igep/linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2
Puis faire
make release
pour compiler le module cmemk.ko (dans le réperoire ./src/module).
Framework Components
Les Framework Components incluent entre autres les librairies DMAN3 et ACPY3, permettant les copies par DMA. A télécharger ici et à décompresser par exemple dans "$HOME/TI/framework_components_2_24_01".
Local Power Manager (LPM)
LPM fait aussi partie des Linux Utilities, mais ne semble plus intégré dans les nouvelles versions. Il se trouve avec les anciennes versions de linuxutils, ici.
LPM permet de redémarrer le DSP à la volée. En effet, par défaut DSPLink garde dans la mémoire cache le programme exécuté par le DSP. La même application peut donc être lancée plusieurs fois à la suite, par contre si une nouvelle application est lancée, il y aura plantage; d'où l'intérêt de LPM.
Aller dans le répertoire local_power_manager_1_24/packages/ti/bios/power/modules/omap3530/lpm et éditer le Makefile pour changer:
LINUXKERNEL_INSTALL_DIR = $(HOME)/igep/linux-omap-2.6.28.10-igep0020b-2 MVTOOL_PREFIX = /usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/bin/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- DSPLINK_REPO = $(HOME)/igep/dsplink_linux_1_63
puis compiler
make
le module lpm_omap3530.ko sera fait dans le répertoire courent.
Les exécutables lpmON.x470uC et lpmOFF.x470uC sont déjà compilés et se trouvent dans les répertoires:
local_power_manager_1_24/packages/ti/bios/power/test/bin/ti_platforms_evm3530/linux/debug/
local_power_manager_1_24/packages/ti/bios/power/test/bin/ti_platforms_evm3530/linux/release/
Librairies
Les principales librairies sont les suivantes:
A noter, pour les dsplib v210, le lien Linux semble ne pas marcher. A partir de la version Windows, il faut changer le fichier C64x+DSPLIB/dsplib_v210/dsplib64plus.h. Tous les chemins relatifs sont en notation Windows "\" qu'il faut remplacer par des "/".
Configurer DSPLINK pour la compilation de projets
Cette partie explique comment rajouter les diverses librairies à l'environnement DSPLINK
Includes
Éditer le fichier $DSPLINK/make/DspBios/c64xxp_5.xx_linux.mk pour rajouter les répertoires includes:
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Base directory for include files
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BASE_OSINC := $(BASE_BUILDOS)/include
BASE_CGTOOLSINC := $(BASE_CGTOOLS)/include
BASE_RTDXINC := $(BASE_RTDX)/include/c6000
BASE_PSLINC := $(BASE_PSL)/include
BASE_CSLINC :=
BASE_XDCINC := $(BASE_INSTALL)/xdctools_3_15_00_50/packages
BASE_FCINC := $(BASE_INSTALL)/framework_components_2_24_01/packages
BASE_FCTOOLINC := $(BASE_INSTALL)/framework_components_2_24_01/fctools/packages
BASE_IMGLIBINC := $(BASE_INSTALL)/imglib_v201/include
BASE_IQMATHINC := $(BASE_INSTALL)/IQmath_v213/include
OSINC_GENERIC := $(BASE_OSINC)
OSINC_PLATFORM := $(BASE_CGTOOLSINC) $(BASE_RTDXINC) \
$(BASE_PSLINC) $(BASE_CSLINC) $(BASE_XDCINC) $(BASE_FCINC) $(BASE_FCTOOLINC) $(BASE_IMGLIBINC) $(BASE_IQMATHINC)
Les variables OSINC_GENERIC et OSINC_PLATFORM permettent de définir les répertoires où DSPLINK cherchera les .h.
Librairies
Par défaut, DSPLINK cherche les librairies dans les répertoires:
$DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/DEBUG/ $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/RELEASE/
Il faut donc y copier les différentes libraires:
cp $HOME/TI/framework_components_2_24_01/packages/ti/sdo/fc/dman3/lib/debug/dman3.a64P $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/DEBUG/ cp $HOME/TI/framework_components_2_24_01/packages/ti/sdo/fc/dman3/lib/release/dman3.a64P $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/RELEASE/ cp $HOME/TI/framework_components_2_24_01/packages/ti/sdo/fc/acpy3/lib/debug/acpy3.a64P $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/DEBUG/ cp $HOME/TI/framework_components_2_24_01/packages/ti/sdo/fc/acpy3/lib/release/acpy3.a64P $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/RELEASE/ cp $HOME/TI/imglib_v201/lib/target/imglib2.l64P $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/DEBUG/ cp $HOME/TI/imglib_v201/lib/target/imglib2.l64P $DSPLINK/dsp/BUILD/OMAP3530_0/EXPORT/RELEASE/
Configure CodeBlocks for ARM
This part explains how to setup CodeBlocks to develop programs using dsplink library.
Go to settings/compiler and debugger menu, choose GNU ARM GCC compiler as compiler. You should see the following window:
Select Search directories tab and Compiler. Then add the following directories (and adapt it if necessary):
/usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/lib $(HOME)/igep/dsplink_linux_1_63/dsplink/gpp/inc/sys/Linux $(HOME)/igep/dsplink_linux_1_63/dsplink/gpp/export/INCLUDE/Linux/OMAP3530/usr
Which should give the following result:
In Search directories, now choose Linker and add the following directories:
$(HOME)/dsplink_linux_1_63/dsplink/gpp/inc/sys/Linux
Which should give the following result:
Choose Toolchain executables tab and Compiler's installations directory:
/usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/
Then, enter the Program Files as follows:
