README
======
This README file describes the port of NuttX to the SAMA4D4-EK
development board. This board features the Atmel SAMA5D44 microprocessor.
See http://www.atmel.com for further information.
This port was actually performed on a board designated SAMA5D4-MB. This
board should be equivalent to the SAMA5D4-EK. However, care should be
taken when I refer to PIO, Connector, or Jumper Usage in this document.
Please consult the schematic for your actual board-in-hand to verify that
information.

Development Environment
=======================
Several possible development environments may be used:
- Linux or OSX native
- Cygwin unders Windows
- MinGW + MSYS under Windows
- Windows native (with GNUMake from GNUWin32).
All testing has been performed using Cygwin under Windows.
The source has been built only using the GNU toolchain (see below). Other
toolchains will likely cause problems.
GNU Toolchain Options
=====================
The NuttX make system will support the several different toolchain options.
All testing has been conducted using the CodeSourcery GCC toolchain. To use
a different toolchain, you simply need to add change to one of the following
configuration options to your .config (or defconfig) file:
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=y : Atollic toolchain for Windos
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIL=y : Generic GCC ARM EABI toolchain for Linux
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : Generic GCC ARM EABI toolchain for Windows
The CodeSourcery GCC toolchain is selected with
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y and setting the PATH variable
appropriately.
NOTE about Windows native toolchains
------------------------------------
There are several limitations to using a Windows based toolchain in a
Cygwin environment. The three biggest are:
1. The Windows toolchain cannot follow Cygwin paths. Path conversions are
performed automatically in the Cygwin makefiles using the 'cygpath'
utility but you might easily find some new path problems. If so, check
out 'cygpath -w'
2. Windows toolchains cannot follow Cygwin symbolic links. Many symbolic
links are used in Nuttx (e.g., include/arch). The make system works
around these problems for the Windows tools by copying directories
instead of linking them. But this can also cause some confusion for
you: For example, you may edit a file in a "linked" directory and find
that your changes had no effect. That is because you are building the
copy of the file in the "fake" symbolic directory. If you use a\
Windows toolchain, you should get in the habit of making like this:
make clean_context all
An alias in your .bashrc file might make that less painful.
3. Dependencies are not made when using Windows versions of the GCC. This is
because the dependencies are generated using Windows paths which do not
work with the Cygwin make.
MKDEP = $(TOPDIR)/tools/mknulldeps.sh
IDEs
====
NuttX is built using command-line make. It can be used with an IDE, but some
effort will be required to create the project.
Makefile Build
--------------
Under Eclipse, it is pretty easy to set up an "empty makefile project" and
simply use the NuttX makefile to build the system. That is almost for free
under Linux. Under Windows, you will need to set up the "Cygwin GCC" empty
makefile project in order to work with Windows (Google for "Eclipse Cygwin" -
there is a lot of help on the internet).
Native Build
------------
Here are a few tips before you start that effort:
1) Select the toolchain that you will be using in your .config file
2) Start the NuttX build at least one time from the Cygwin command line
before trying to create your project. This is necessary to create
certain auto-generated files and directories that will be needed.
3) Set up include pathes: You will need include/, arch/arm/src/sam34,
arch/arm/src/common, arch/arm/src/armv7-m, and sched/.
4) All assembly files need to have the definition option -D __ASSEMBLY__
on the command line.
Startup files will probably cause you some headaches. The NuttX startup file
is arch/arm/src/sam34/sam_vectors.S. You may need to build NuttX
one time from the Cygwin command line in order to obtain the pre-built
startup object needed by an IDE.
NuttX EABI "buildroot" Toolchain
================================
A GNU GCC-based toolchain is assumed. The files */setenv.sh should
be modified to point to the correct path to the Cortex-M3 GCC toolchain (if
different from the default in your PATH variable).
If you have no Cortex-M3 toolchain, one can be downloaded from the NuttX
SourceForge download site (https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuttx/files/buildroot/).
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
cd tools
./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/<sub-dir>
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
5. Copy the configuration file from the configs/ sub-directory to the
top-level build directory:
cp configs/cortexa8-eabi-defconfig-4.8.2 .config
6a. You may wish to modify the configuration before you build it. For
example, it is recommended that you build the kconfig-frontends tools,
generomfs, and the NXFLAT tools as well. You may also want to change
the selected toolchain. These reconfigurations can all be done with
make menuconfig
6b. If you chose to make the configuration with no changes, then you
should still do the following to make certain that the build
configuration is up-to-date:
make oldconfig
7. make
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
the path to the newly built binaries.
See the file configs/README.txt in the buildroot source tree. That has more
details PLUS some special instructions that you will need to follow if you are
building a Cortex-M3 toolchain for Cygwin under Windows.
NXFLAT Toolchain
================
If you are *not* using the NuttX buildroot toolchain and you want to use
the NXFLAT tools, then you will still have to build a portion of the buildroot
tools -- just the NXFLAT tools. The buildroot with the NXFLAT tools can
be downloaded from the NuttX SourceForge download site
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuttx/files/).
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
cd tools
./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/<sub-dir>
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
5. cp configs/cortexm3-defconfig-nxflat .config
6. make oldconfig
7. make
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
the path to the newly built NXFLAT binaries.
NOTE: There are some known incompatibilities with 4.6.3 EABI toolchain
and the NXFLAT tools. See the top-level TODO file (under "Binary
loaders") for more information about this problem. If you plan to use
NXFLAT, please do not use the GCC 4.6.3 EABI toochain.
Loading Code into SRAM with J-Link
==================================
Loading code with the Segger tools and GDB
------------------------------------------
1) Change directories into the directory where you built NuttX.
2) Start the GDB server and wait until it is ready to accept GDB
connections.
3) Then run GDB like this:
$ arm-none-eabi-gdb
(gdb) target remote localhost:2331
(gdb) mon reset
(gdb) load nuttx
(gdb) ... start debugging ...
Loading code using J-Link Commander
----------------------------------
J-Link> r
J-Link> loadbin <file> <address>
J-Link> setpc <address of __start>
J-Link> ... start debugging ...
Writing to FLASH using SAM-BA
=============================
Assumed starting configuration:
1. You have installed the J-Link CDC USB driver (Windows only, there is
no need to install a driver on any regular Linux distribution),
2. You have the USB connected to DBGU port (J23)
3. Terminal configuration: 115200 8N1
Using SAM-BA to write to FLASH:
1. Exit the terminal emulation program and remove the USB cable from
the DBGU port (J23)
2. Connect the USB cable to the device USB port (J6)
3. JP9 must open (BMS == 1) to boot from on-chip Boot ROM.
4. Press and maintain PB4 CS_BOOT button and power up the board. PB4
CS_BOOT button prevents booting from Nand or serial Flash by
disabling Flash Chip Selects after having powered the board, you can
release the PB4 BS_BOOT button.
5. On Windows you may need to wait for a device driver to be installed.
6. Start the SAM-BA application, selecting (1) the correct USB serial
port, and (2) board = at91sama5d4-ek.
7. The SAM-BA menu should appear.
8. Select the FLASH bank that you want to use and the address to write
to and "Execute"
9. When you are finished writing to FLASH, remove the USB cable from J6
and re-connect the serial link on USB CDC / DBGU connector (J23) and
re-open the terminal emulator program.
10. Power cycle the board.
Creating and Using DRAMBOOT
===========================
In order to have more control of debugging code that runs out of DARM,
I created the sama5d4-ek/dramboot configuration. That configuration is
described below under "Configurations."
Here are some general instructions on how to build an use dramboot:
Building:
1. Remove any old configurations (if applicable).
cd <nuttx>
make distclean
2. Install and build the dramboot configuration. This steps will establish
the dramboot configuration and setup the PATH variable in order to do
the build:
cd tools
./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/dramboot
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Before sourcing the setenv.sh file above, you should examine it and
perform edits as necessary so that TOOLCHAIN_BIN is the correct path
to the directory than holds your toolchain binaries.
NOTE: Be aware that the default dramboot also disables the watchdog.
Since you will not be able to re-enable the watchdog later, you may
need to set CONFIG_SAMA5_WDT=y in the NuttX configuration file.
Then make dramboot:
make
This will result in an ELF binary called 'nuttx' and also HEX and
binary versions called 'nuttx.hex' and 'nuttx.bin'.
3. Rename the binaries. Since you will need two versions of NuttX: this
dramboot version that runs in internal SRAM and another under test in
NOR FLASH, I rename the resulting binary files so that they can be
distinguished:
mv nuttx dramboot
mv nuttx.hex dramboot.hex
mv nuttx.bin dramboot.bin
4. Build the "real" DRAM configuration. This will create the nuttx.hex
that you will load using dramboot. Note that you must select
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_DRAM_BOOT=y. This controls the origin at which the
code is linked and positions it correctly for the DRAMBOOT program.
5. Restart the system holding DIS_BOOT. You should see the RomBOOT
prompt on the 115200 8N1 serial console (and nothing) more. Hit
the ENTER key with the focus on your terminal window a few time.
This will enable JTAG.
6. Then start the J-Link GDB server and GDB. In GDB, I do the following:
(gdb) mon heal # Halt the CPU
(gdb) load dramboot # Load dramboot into internal SRAM
(gdb) mon go # Start dramboot
You should see this message:
Send Intel HEX file now
Load your program by sending the nuttx.hex via the terminal program.
Then:
(gdb) mon halt # Break in
(gdb) mon reg pc = 0x20000040 # Set the PC to DRAM entry point
(gdb) mon go # And jump into DRAM
The dramboot program can also be configured to jump directly into
DRAM without requiring the final halt and go by setting
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_DRAM_START=y in the NuttX configuration. However,
since I have been debugging the early boot sequence, the above
sequence has been most convenient for me since it allows me to
step into the program in SDRAM.
7. An option is to use the SAM-BA tool to write the DRAMBOOT image into
Serial FLASH. Then, the system will boot from Serial FLASH by
copying the DRAMBOOT image in SRAM which will run, download the nuttx.hex
file, and then start the image loaded into DRAM automatically. This is
a very convenient usage!
NOTES: (1) There is that must be closed to enable use of the AT25
Serial Flash. (2) If using SAM-BA, make sure that you load the DRAM
boot program into the boot area via the pull-down menu. (3) If
you don't have SAM-BA, an alternative is to use the AT25BOOT program
described in the next section.
STATUS: I don't have a working SAM-BA at the moment and there are issues
with my AT25BOOT (see below). I currently work around these issues by
putting DRAMBOOT on a microSD card (as boot.bin). The RomBOOT loader does
boot that image without issue.
Creating and Using AT25BOOT
===========================
To work around some SAM-BA availability issues that I had at one time,
I created the AT25BOOT program. AT25BOOT is a tiny program that runs in
ISRAM. AT25BOOT will enable SDRAM and configure the AT25 Serial FLASH.
It will prompt and then load an Intel HEX program into SDRAM over the
serial console. If the program is successfully loaded in SDRAM, AT25BOOT
will copy the program at the beginning of the AT26 Serial FLASH.
If the jumpering is set correctly, the SAMA5D4 RomBOOT loader will
then boot the program from the serial FLASH the next time that it
reset.
The AT25BOOT configuration is described below under "Configurations."
Here are some general instructions on how to build an use AT25BOOT:
Building:
1. Remove any old configurations (if applicable).
cd <nuttx>
make distclean
2. Install and build the AT25BOOT configuration. This steps will establish
the AT25BOOT configuration and setup the PATH variable in order to do
the build:
cd tools
./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/at25boot
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Before sourcing the setenv.sh file above, you should examine it and
perform edits as necessary so that TOOLCHAIN_BIN is the correct path
to the directory than holds your toolchain binaries.
Then make AT25BOOT:
make
This will result in an ELF binary called 'nuttx' and also HEX and
binary versions called 'nuttx.hex' and 'nuttx.bin'.
3. Rename the binaries. If you want to save this version of AT25BOOT so
that it does not get clobbered later, you may want to rename the
binaries:
mv nuttx at25boot
mv nuttx.hex at25boot.hex
mv nuttx.bin at25boot.bin
4. Build the "real" DRAMBOOT configuration. This will create the
dramboot.hex that you will write to the AT25 FLASH using AT25BOOT. See
the section above entitled "Creating and Using AT25BOOT" for more
information.
5. Restart the system holding DIS_BOOT. You should see the RomBOOT
prompt on the 115200 8N1 serial console (and nothing) more. Hit
the ENTER key with the focus on your terminal window a few time.
This will enable JTAG.
6. Then start the J-Link GDB server and GDB. In GDB, I do the following:
(gdb) mon heal # Halt the CPU
(gdb) load at25boot # Load AT25BOOT into internal SRAM
(gdb) mon go # Start AT25BOOT
You should see this message:
Send Intel HEX file now
Load DRAMBOOT by sending the dramboot.hex via the terminal program.
At this point you will get messages indicated whether or not the write
to the AT25 FLASH was successful or not. When you reset the board,
it should then boot from the AT25 Serial FLASH and you should again
get the prompt:
Send Intel HEX file now
But now you are being prompted to load the DRAM program under test
(See the section above entitled "Creating and Using AT25BOOT").
7. An better option, if available, is to use the SAM-BA tool to write the
DRAMBOOT image into Serial FLASH.
NOTES: (1) There is that must be closed to enable use of the AT25
Serial Flash. (2) If using SAM-BA, make sure that you load the DRAM
boot program into the boot area via the pull-down menu.
STATUS: While this program works great and appears to correctly write
the binary image onto the AT25 Serial FLASH, the RomBOOT loader will
not boot it! I believe that is because the secure boot loader has some
undocumented requirements that I am unaware of. (2014-6-28)
Running NuttX from SDRAM
========================
NuttX may be executed from SDRAM. But this case means that the NuttX
binary must reside on some other media (typically NAND FLASH, Serial
FLASH) or transferred over some interface (perhaps a UARt or even a
TFTP server). In these cases, an intermediate bootloader such as U-Boot
or Barebox must be used to configure the SAMA5D4 clocks and SDRAM and
then to copy the NuttX binary into SDRAM.
The SRAMBOOT program is another option (see above). But this section
will focus on U-Boot.
- NuttX Configuration
- Boot sequence
- NAND FLASH Memory Map
- Programming the AT91Boostrap Binary
- Programming U-Boot
- Load NuttX with U-Boot on AT91 boards
TODO: Some drivers may require some adjustments to run from SDRAM. That
is because in this case macros like BOARD_MCK_FREQUENCY are not constants
but are instead function calls: The MCK clock frequency is not known in
advance but instead has to be calculated from the bootloader PLL configuration.
See the TODO list at the end of this file for further information.
NuttX Configuration
-------------------
In order to run from SDRAM, NuttX must be built at origin 0x20008000 in
SDRAM (skipping over SDRAM memory used by the bootloader). The following
configuration option is required:
CONFIG_SAMA5_BOOT_SDRAM=y
CONFIG_BOOT_RUNFROMSDRAM=y
These options tell the NuttX code that it will be booting and running from
SDRAM. In this case, the start-logic will do to things: (1) it will not
configure the SAMA5D4 clocking. Rather, it will use the clock configuration
as set up by the bootloader. And (2) it will not attempt to configure the
SDRAM. Since NuttX is already running from SDRAM, it must accept the SDRAM
configuration as set up by the bootloader.
Boot sequence
-------------
Reference: http://www.at91.com/linux4sam/bin/view/Linux4SAM/GettingStarted
Several pieces of software are involved to boot a Nutt5X into SDRAM. First
is the primary bootloader in ROM which is in charge to check if a valid
application is present on supported media (NOR FLASH, Serial DataFlash,
NAND FLASH, SD card).
The boot sequence of linux4SAM is done in several steps :
1. The ROM bootloader checks if a valid application is present in FLASH
and if it is the case downloads it into internal SRAM. This program
is usually a second level bootloader called AT91BootStrap.
2. AT91Bootstrap is the second level bootloader. It is in charge of the
hardware configuration. It downloads U-Boot / Barebox binary from
FLASH to SDRAM / DDRAM and starts the third level bootloader
(U-Boot / Barebox)
(see http://www.at91.com/linux4sam/bin/view/Linux4SAM/AT91Bootstrap).
3. The third level bootloader is either U-Boot or Barebox. The third
level bootloader is in charge of downloading NuttX binary from FLASH,
network, SD card, etc. It then starts NuttX.
4. Then NuttX runs from SDRAM

Load NuttX with U-Boot on AT91 boards
-------------------------------------
Reference http://www.at91.com/linux4sam/bin/view/Linux4SAM/U-Boot
Preparing NuttX image
U-Boot does not support normal binary images. Instead you have to
create an uImage file with the mkimage tool which encapsulates kernel
image with header information, CRC32 checksum, etc.
mkimage comes in source code with U-Boot distribution and it is built
during U-Boot compilation (u-boot-source-dir/tools/mkimage). There
are also sites where you can download pre-built mkimage binaries. For
example: http://www.trimslice.com/wiki/index.php/U-Boot_images
See the U-Boot README file for more information. More information is
also available in the mkimage man page (for example,
http://linux.die.net/man/1/mkimage).
Command to generate an uncompressed uImage file (4) :
mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 20008000 -e 20008000 \
-n nuttx -d nuttx.bin uImage
Where:
-A arm: Set architecture to ARM
-O linux: Select operating system. bootm command of u-boot changes
boot method by os type.
-T kernel: Set image type.
-C none: Set compression type.
-a 20008000: Set load address.
-e 20008000: Set entry point.
-n nuttx: Set image name.
-d nuttx.bin: Use image data from nuttx.bin.
This will generate a binary called uImage. If you have the path to
mkimage in your PATH variable, then you can automatically build the
uImage file by adding the following to your .config file:
CONFIG_RAW_BINARY=y
CONFIG_UBOOT_UIMAGE=y
CONFIG_UIMAGE_LOAD_ADDRESS=0x20008000
CONFIG_UIMAGE_ENTRY_POINT=0x20008040
The uImage file can them be loaded into memory from a variety of sources

Loading through network
On a development system, it is useful to get the kernel and root file
system through the network. U-Boot provides support for loading
binaries from a remote host on the network using the TFTP protocol.
To manage to use TFTP with U-Boot, you will have to configure a TFTP
server on your host machine. Check your distribution manual or Internet
resources to configure a Linux or Windows TFTP server on your host:
- U-Boot documentation on a Linux host:
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.6.
- Another TFTP configuration reference:
http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch16_:_Telnet%2C_TFTP%2C_and_xinetd#TFTP
On the U-Boot side, you will have to setup the networking parameters:
1. Setup an Ethernet address (MAC address)
Check this U-Boot network BuildRootFAQ entry to choose a proper MAC
address: http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/EthernetDoesNotWork
setenv ethaddr 00:e0:de:ad:be:ef
2. Setup IP parameters:
The board ip address
setenv ipaddr 10.0.0.2
The server ip address where the TFTP server is running
setenv serverip 10.0.0.1
3. saving Environment to flash
saveenv
4. If Ethernet Phy has not been detected during former bootup, reset
the board to reload U-Boot : the Ethernet address and Phy
initialization shall be ok, now
5. Download the NuttX uImage and the root file system to a ram location
using the U-Boot tftp command (Cf. U-Boot script capability chapter).
6. Launch NuttX issuing a bootm or boot command.
If the board has both emac and gmac, you can use following to choose
which one to use:
setenv ethact macb0,gmacb0
setenv ethprime gmacb0

Most of this work was developed on a SAMA5D4-MB Rev C. board. Here is a
pin-for-pin comparison between the Rev C and Rev E boards. This is a
comparison of signal naming only; some differences are simply due to
differences in naming and any functional differences with no signal name
change would no be noted.

Buttons and LEDs
================
Buttons
-------
A single button, PB_USER1 (PB2), is available on the SAMA5D4-EK:
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
SAMA5D4 PIO SIGNAL USAGE
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
PE13/A13/TIOB1/PWML2 PB_USER1_PE13 PB_USER1
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
Closing JP2 will bring PE13 to ground so 1) PE13 should have a weak pull-up,
and 2) when PB2 is pressed, a low value will be senses.
Support for pollable buttons is enabled with:
CONFIG_ARCH_BUTTONS=y
For interrupt driven buttons, add:
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQBUTTONS=y
Program interfaces for button access are described in nuttx/include/nuttx/arch.h
There is an example that can be enabled to test button interrupts. That
example is enabled like:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BUTTONS=y
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BUTTONS_MAX=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BUTTONS_MIN=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BUTTONS_NAME0="PB_USER"
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IRQBUTTONS_MAX=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IRQBUTTONS_MIN=0
LEDs
----
There are 3 LEDs on the SAMA5D4-EK:
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
SAMA5D4 PIO SIGNAL USAGE
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
PE28/NWAIT/RTS4/A19 1Wire_PE28 1-WIRE ROM, LCD, D8 (green)
PE8/A8/TCLK3/PWML3 LED_USER_PE8 LED_USER (D10)
PE9/A9/TIOA2 LED_POWER_PE9 LED_POWER (D9, Red)
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
- D8: D8 is shared with other functions and cannot be used if the 1-Wire ROM
is used. I am not sure of the LCD function, but the LED may not be available
if the LCD is used either. We will avoid using D8 just for simplicity.
- D10: Nothing special here. A low output illuminates.
- D9: The Power ON LED. Connects to the via an IRLML2502 MOSFET. This LED will
be on when power is applied but otherwise a low output value will turn it
off.
These LEDs are not used by the board port unless CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS is
defined. In that case, the usage by the board port is defined in
include/board.h and src/sam_leds.c. The LEDs are used to encode OS-related
events as follows:
SYMBOL Meaning LED state
USER D10 POWER D9
------------------- ----------------------- -------- --------
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started OFF ON
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF ON
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled OFF ON
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created ON ON
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt No change
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler No change
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed No change
LED_PANIC The system has crashed OFF Blinking
LED_IDLE MCU is is sleep mode Not used
Thus if the D0 and D9 are statically on, NuttX has successfully booted and
is, apparently, running normally. If the red D9 LED is flashing at
approximately 2Hz, then a fatal error has been detected and the system
has halted.
Serial Console
==============
Two UART ports are available:
Virtual COM / DBGU Port (J24). Either may be driven by USART3, depending
upon the setting of JP19 and JP20:
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
SAMA5D4 PIO SIGNAL USAGE
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
PE16/A16/RXD3/TIOB0 DBGU_RXD3_PE16 DBGU_RXD3 (See JP19)
PE17/A17/TXD3/TCLK0 DBGU_TXD3_PE17 DBGU_TXD3 (See JP20)
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
In one jumper position UART3 connects to the SAM3U which will, in turn,
provide the serial output over a USB virtual COM port. In other other
jumper position, UART3 will connect the RS-232 port labelled DBGU (J24).
I personally prefer the RS-232 port because my terminal software does not
lose the USB Virtual COM every time I reset or power-cycle the board.
USART4 TTL-Level
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
SAMA5D4 PIO SIGNAL USAGE
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
PE26/NCS2/RXD4/A18 RXD4_PE26 RXD4
PE27/NWR1/NBS1/TXD4 TXD4_PE27 TXD4
------------------------------ ------------------- -------------------------
A TTL-to-RS232 converter is required to use this USART for a serial console.
- RXD4/PE26 is available at Expansion Interface, J19C pin 59
- TXD4/PE27 is available at Expansion Interface, J19C pin 60
- VCC_3V3 is also available at Expansion Interface, J19B pins 21 and 22
- GND is available J19A pin 11, J19B pin 31, and J19C pin 51
By default the RS-232 DBGU port on USART3 is used as the NuttX serial
console in all configurations (unless otherwise noted). USART4, however,
is the also available.
Networking
==========
Networking support via the can be added to NSH by selecting the following
configuration options. The SAMA5D44 supports two different 10/100Base-T
Ethernet MAC peripherals.
NOTE: See the "kludge" for EMAC that is documented in the To-Do
list at the end of this README file.

EMAC2 connects (directly) to a KSZ8081RNB PHY (U10) and is available at
the ETH0 connector.
EMAC1 connects (indirectly) to another KSZ8081RNB PHY (U7) and is available
at the ETH1 connector.
The ETH1 signals go through line drivers that are enabled via the board
LCD_ETH1_CONFIG signal. Jumper JP2 selects either the EMAC1 or the LCD by
controlling the the LCD_ETH1_CONFIG signal on the board.
- JP2 open, LCD_ETH1_CONFIG pulled high:
LCD_ETH1_CONFIG=1: LCD 5v enable(LCD_DETECT#=0); ETH1 disable
- JP2 closed, LCD_ETH1_CONFIG grounded:
LCD_ETH1_CONFIG=0: LCD 5v disable; ETH1 enable

CONFIG_NSH_NOMAC=y : Need to make up a bogus MAC address
: Defaults should be okay for other options
Using the network with NSH
--------------------------
So what can you do with this networking support? First you see that
NSH has several new network related commands:
ifconfig, ifdown, ifup: Commands to help manage your network
get and put: TFTP file transfers
wget: HTML file transfers
ping: Check for access to peers on the network
Telnet console: You can access the NSH remotely via telnet.
You can also enable other add on features like full FTP or a Web
Server or XML RPC and others. There are also other features that
you can enable like DHCP client (or server) or network name
resolution.
By default, the IP address of the SAMA4D4-EK will be 10.0.0.2 and
it will assume that your host is the gateway and has the IP address
10.0.0.1.
nsh> ifconfig
eth0 HWaddr 00:e0:de:ad:be:ef at UP
IPaddr:10.0.0.2 DRaddr:10.0.0.1 Mask:255.255.255.0
You can use ping to test for connectivity to the host (Careful,
Window firewalls usually block ping-related ICMP traffic). On the
target side, you can:
nsh> ping 10.0.0.1
PING 10.0.0.1 56 bytes of data
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=4 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=5 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=6 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=7 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=8 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=9 time=0 ms
56 bytes from 10.0.0.1: icmp_seq=10 time=0 ms
10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 10100 ms
NOTE: In this configuration is is normal to have packet loss > 0%
the first time you ping due to the default handling of the ARP
table.
On the host side, you should also be able to ping the SAMA4D4-EK:
$ ping 10.0.0.2
You can also log into the NSH from the host PC like this:
$ telnet 10.0.0.2
Trying 10.0.0.2...
Connected to 10.0.0.2.

NOTE: If you enable this feature, you experience a delay on booting.
That is because the start-up logic waits for the network connection
to be established before starting NuttX. In a real application, you
would probably want to do the network bringup on a separate thread
so that access to the NSH prompt is not delayed.
This delay will be especially long if the board is not connected to
a network. On the order of a minute! You will probably think that
NuttX has crashed! And then, when it finally does come up, the
network will not be available.
Network Initialization Thread
-----------------------------
There is a configuration option enabled by CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_THREAD
that will do the NSH network bring-up asynchronously in parallel on
a separate thread. This eliminates the (visible) networking delay
altogether. This networking initialization feature by itself has
some limitations:
- If no network is connected, the network bring-up will fail and
the network initialization thread will simply exit. There are no
retries and no mechanism to know if the network initialization was
successful.
- Furthermore, there is no support for detecting loss of the network
connection and recovery of networking when the connection is restored.
Both of these shortcomings can be eliminated by enabling the network
monitor:
Network Monitor
---------------
By default the network initialization thread will bring-up the network
then exit, freeing all of the resources that it required. This is a
good behavior for systems with limited memory.
If the CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_MONITOR option is selected, however, then the
network initialization thread will persist forever; it will monitor the
network status. In the event that the network goes down (for example, if
a cable is removed), then the thread will monitor the link status and
attempt to bring the network back up. In this case the resources
required for network initialization are never released.
Pre-requisites:
- CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_THREAD as described above.
- CONFIG_NETDEV_PHY_IOCTL. Enable PHY IOCTL commands in the Ethernet
device driver. Special IOCTL commands must be provided by the Ethernet
driver to support certain PHY operations that will be needed for link
management. There operations are not complex and are implemented for
the Atmel SAMA5 family.
- CONFIG_ARCH_PHY_INTERRUPT. This is not a user selectable option.
Rather, it is set when you select a board that supports PHY interrupts.
In most architectures, the PHY interrupt is not associated with the
Ethernet driver at all. Rather, the PHY interrupt is provided via some
board-specific GPIO and the board-specific logic must provide support
for that GPIO interrupt. To do this, the board logic must do two things:
(1) It must provide the function arch_phy_irq() as described and
prototyped in the nuttx/include/nuttx/arch.h, and (2) it must select
CONFIG_ARCH_PHY_INTERRUPT in the board configuration file to advertise
that it supports arch_phy_irq(). This logic can be found at
nuttx/configs/sama5d4-ek/src/sam_ethernet.c.
- And a few other things: UDP support is required (CONFIG_NET_UDP) and
signals must not be disabled (CONFIG_DISABLE_SIGNALS).
Given those prerequisites, the newtork monitor can be selected with these additional settings.
Networking Support -> Networking Device Support

AT25 Serial FLASH
=================
Connections
-----------
The SAMA4D4-EK board supports an options Serial DataFlash connected
at MN8. The SPI connection is as follows:

System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_SPI0=y : Enable SPI0
CONFIG_SAMA5_DMAC0=y : Enable DMA controller 0
System Type -> SPI device driver options
CONFIG_SAMA5_SPI_DMA=y : Use DMA for SPI transfers
CONFIG_SAMA5_SPI_DMATHRESHOLD=4 : Don't DMA for small transfers
Device Drivers -> SPI Driver Support
CONFIG_SPI=y : Enable SPI support
CONFIG_SPI_EXCHANGE=y : Support the exchange method
Device Drivers -> Memory Technology Device (MTD) Support

CONFIG_AT25_SPIMODE=0 : Use SPI mode 0
CONFIG_AT25_SPIFREQUENCY=10000000 : Use SPI frequency 10MHz
The AT25 is capable of higher SPI rates than this. I have not experimented
a lot, but at 20MHz, the behavior is not the same with all CM modules. This
lower rate gives more predictable performance.
Application Configuration -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : NSH board-initialization
Board Selection
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_AT25_BLOCKMOUNT=y : Mounts AT25 for NSH
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_AT25_FTL=y : Create block driver for FAT
NOTE: that you must close JP6 in order to enable the AT25 FLASH chip select.
You can then format the AT25 FLASH for a FAT file system and mount the
file system at /mnt/at25 using these NSH commands:
nsh> mkfatfs /dev/mtdblock0
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt/at25
Then you an use the FLASH as a normal FAT file system:
nsh> echo "This is a test" >/mnt/at25/atest.txt
nsh> ls -l /mnt/at25
/mnt/at25:
-rw-rw-rw- 16 atest.txt
nsh> cat /mnt/at25/atest.txt
This is a test
HSMCI Card Slots
================
Physical Slots
--------------
The SAMA4D4-EK provides a two SD memory card slots: (1) a full size SD
card slot (J10), and (2) a microSD memory card slot (J11).
HSMCI0
------
The full size SD card slot connects via HSMCI0. The card detect discrete
is available on PE5 (pulled high). The write protect discrete is tied to
ground and is not available to software. The slot supports 8-bit wide
transfer mode, but the NuttX driver currently uses only the 4-bit wide
transfer mode

Configuration Settings
----------------------
Enabling HSMCI support. The SAMA4D4-EK provides a two SD memory card
slots: (1) a full size SD card slot (J10), and (2) a microSD memory card
slot (J11). The full size SD card slot connects via HSMCI0; the microSD
connects via HSMCI1. Support for both SD slots can be enabled with the
following settings:
System Type->ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_HSMCI0=y : To enable HSMCI0 support
CONFIG_SAMA5_HSMCI1=y : To enable HSMCI1 support
CONFIG_SAMA5_XDMAC0=y : XDMAC0 is needed by HSMCI0/1
: (HSMCI0 seemds to be secure by default)
System Type
CONFIG_SAMA5_PIO_IRQ=y : PIO interrupts needed
CONFIG_SAMA5_PIOE_IRQ=y : Card detect pins are on PE5 and PE6
Device Drivers -> MMC/SD Driver Support
CONFIG_MMCSD=y : Enable MMC/SD support
CONFIG_MMSCD_NSLOTS=1 : One slot per driver instance
CONFIG_MMCSD_MULTIBLOCK_DISABLE=y : (REVISIT)
CONFIG_MMCSD_HAVECARDDETECT=y : Supports card-detect PIOs
CONFIG_MMCSD_MMCSUPPORT=n : Interferes with some SD cards
CONFIG_MMCSD_SPI=n : No SPI-based MMC/SD support
CONFIG_MMCSD_SDIO=y : SDIO-based MMC/SD support
CONFIG_SDIO_DMA=y : Use SDIO DMA
CONFIG_SDIO_BLOCKSETUP=y : Needs to know block sizes
Library Routines
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y : Driver needs work queue support
Application Configuration -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : NSH board-initialization, OR
CONFIG_BOARD_INITIALIZE=y
Using the SD card
-----------------
1) After booting, the HSCMI devices will appear as /dev/mmcsd0
and /dev/mmcsd1.
2) If you try mounting an SD card with nothing in the slot, the
mount will fail:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd1 /mnt/sd1
nsh: mount: mount failed: 19
NSH can be configured to provide errors as strings instead of
numbers. But in this case, only the error number is reported. The
error numbers can be found in nuttx/include/errno.h:
#define ENODEV 19
#define ENODEV_STR "No such device"
So the mount command is saying that there is no device or, more
correctly, that there is no card in the SD card slot.
3) Inserted the SD card. Then the mount should succeed.
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd1 /mnt/sd1
nsh> ls /mnt/sd1
/mnt/sd1:
atest.txt
nsh> cat /mnt/sd1/atest.txt
This is a test
NOTE: See the next section entitled "Auto-Mounter" for another way
to mount your SD card.
4) Before removing the card, you must umount the file system. This is
equivalent to "ejecting" or "safely removing" the card on Windows: It
flushes any cached data to an SD card and makes the SD card unavailable
to the applications.
nsh> umount -t /mnt/sd1
It is now safe to remove the card. NuttX provides into callbacks
that can be used by an application to automatically unmount the
volume when it is removed. But those callbacks are not used in
these configurations.
Auto-Mounter
============
NuttX implements an auto-mounter than can make working with SD cards
easier. With the auto-mounter, the file system will be automatically
mounted when the SD card is inserted into the HSMCI slot and automatically
unmounted when the SD card is removed.
Here is a sample configuration for the auto-mounter:
File System Configuration
CONFIG_FS_AUTOMOUNTER=y
Board-Specific Options
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AUTOMOUNT=y
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AUTOMOUNT_FSTYPE="vfat"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AUTOMOUNT_BLKDEV="/dev/mmcsd0"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AUTOMOUNT_MOUNTPOINT="/mnt/sdcard"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AUTOMOUNT_DDELAY=1000
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AUTOMOUNT_UDELAY=2000
WARNING: SD cards should never be removed without first unmounting
them. This is to avoid data and possible corruption of the file
system. Certainly this is the case if you are writing to the SD card
at the time of the removal. If you use the SD card for read-only access,
however, then I cannot think of any reason why removing the card without
mounting would be harmful.
USB Ports
=========
The SAMA4D4-EK features three USB communication ports:
* Port A Host High Speed (EHCI) and Full Speed (OHCI) multiplexed with
USB Device High Speed Micro AB connector, J1
* Port B Host High Speed (EHCI) and Full Speed (OHCI) standard type A
connector, J5 upper port
* Port C Host Full Speed (OHCI) and Full Speed (OHCI) standard type A
connector, J5 lower port
The three USB host ports are equipped with 500-mA high-side power
switch for self-powered and bus-powered applications.
The USB device port A (J5) features a VBUS insert detection function.

USB High-Speed Device
=====================
Basic USB High-Speed Device Configuration
-----------------------------------------
Support the USB high-speed device (UDPHS) driver can be enabled with these
NuttX configuration settings.
Device Drivers -> USB Device Driver Support
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : Enable USB device support
CONFIG_USBDEV_DUALSPEED=y : Device support High and Full Speed
CONFIG_USBDEV_DMA=y : Device uses DMA
System Type -> ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_UDPHS=y : Enable UDPHS High Speed USB device
Application Configuration -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : NSH board-initialization
Mass Storage Class
------------------
The Mass Storage Class (MSC) class driver is selected for use with
UDPHS:
Device Drivers -> USB Device Driver Support
CONFIG_USBMSC=y : Enable the USB MSC class driver
CONFIG_USBMSC_EPBULKOUT=1 : Use EP1 for the BULK OUT endpoint
CONFIG_USBMSC_EPBULKIN=2 : Use EP2 for the BULK IN endpoint
The following setting enables an add-on that can can be used to control
the USB MSC device. It will add two new NSH commands:
a. msconn will connect the USB serial device and export the AT25
to the host, and
b. msdis which will disconnect the USB serial device.
Application Configuration -> System Add-Ons:
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMSC=y : Enable the USBMSC add-on
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMSC_NLUNS=1 : One LUN
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMSC_DEVMINOR1=0 : Minor device zero
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMSC_DEVPATH1="/dev/mtdblock0"
: Use a single, LUN: The AT25
: block driver.
NOTES:
a. To prevent file system corruption, make sure that the AT25 is un-
mounted *before* exporting the mass storage device to the host:
nsh> umount /mnt/at25
nsh> mscon
The AT25 can be re-mounted after the mass storage class is disconnected:
nsh> msdis
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt/at25
b. If you change the value CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMSC_DEVPATH1, then you
can export other file systems:
"/dev/mmcsd1" will export the HSMCI1 microSD
"/dev/mmcsd0" will export the HSMCI0 full-size SD slot
"/dev/ram0" could even be used to export a RAM disk. But you would
first have to use mkrd to create the RAM disk and mkfatfs to put
a FAT file system on it.
CDC/ACM Serial Device Class
---------------------------
This will select the CDC/ACM serial device. Defaults for the other
options should be okay.
Device Drivers -> USB Device Driver Support
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : Enable the CDC/ACM device
CONFIG_CDCACM_BULKIN_REQLEN=768 : Default too small for high-speed
The following setting enables an example that can can be used to control
the CDC/ACM device. It will add two new NSH commands:
a. sercon will connect the USB serial device (creating /dev/ttyACM0), and
b. serdis which will disconnect the USB serial device (destroying
/dev/ttyACM0).
Application Configuration -> Examples:
CONFIG_SYSTEM_CDCACM=y : Enable an CDC/ACM example
Debugging USB Device
--------------------
There is normal console debug output available that can be enabled with
CONFIG_DEBUG + CONFIG_DEBUG_USB. However, USB device operation is very
time critical and enabling this debug output WILL interfere with the
operation of the UDPHS. USB device tracing is a less invasive way to get
debug information: If tracing is enabled, the USB device will save
encoded trace output in in-memory buffer; if the USB monitor is also
enabled, that trace buffer will be periodically emptied and dumped to the
system logging device (the serial console in this configuration):

NOTE: If USB debug output is also enabled, both outputs will appear on the
serial console. However, the debug output will be asynchronous with the
trace output and, hence, difficult to interpret.
USB High-Speed Host
===================
OHCI Only
---------
Support the USB low/full-speed OHCI host driver can be enabled by changing
the NuttX configuration file as follows:
System Type -> ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_UHPHS=y : USB Host High Speed
System Type -> USB High Speed Host driver options
CONFIG_SAMA5_OHCI=y : Low/full-speed OHCI support
: Defaults for values probably OK
Device Drivers

Application Configuration -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : NSH board-initialization
EHCI
----
Support the USB high-speed EHCI host driver can be enabled by changing the
NuttX configuration file as follows. If EHCI is enabled by itself, then
only high-speed devices can be supported. If OHCI is also enabled, then
all low-, full-, and high speed devices will work.
System Type -> ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_UHPHS=y : USB Host High Speed
System Type -> USB High Speed Host driver options
CONFIG_SAMA5_EHCI=y : High-speed EHCI support

Mass Storage Device Usage
-------------------------
Example Usage:
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-6.29
nsh> ls /dev
/dev:
console
mtdblock0
null
ttyS0
Here a USB FLASH stick is inserted. Nothing visible happens in the
shell. But a new device will appear:
nsh> ls /dev
/dev:
console
mtdblock0
null
sda
ttyS0
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/sda
nsh> ls -l /mnt/sda
/mnt/sda:
-rw-rw-rw- 8788 viminfo
drw-rw-rw- 0 .Trash-1000/
-rw-rw-rw- 3378 zmodem.patch
-rw-rw-rw- 1503 sz-1.log
-rw-rw-rw- 613 .bashrc
HID Keyboard Usage
------------------
If a (supported) USB keyboard is connected, a /dev/kbda device will appear:
nsh> ls /dev
/dev:
console
kbda
mtdblock0
null
ttyS0
/dev/kbda is a read-only serial device. Reading from /dev/kbda will get
keyboard input as ASCII data (other encodings are possible):
nsh> cat /dev/kbda
Debugging USB Host
------------------
There is normal console debug output available that can be enabled with
CONFIG_DEBUG + CONFIG_DEBUG_USB. However, USB host operation is very time
critical and enabling this debug output might interfere with the operation
of the UDPHS. USB host tracing is a less invasive way to get debug
information: If tracing is enabled, the USB host will save encoded trace
output in in-memory buffer; if the USB monitor is also enabled, that trace
buffer will be periodically emptied and dumped to the system logging device
(the serial console in this configuration):
Device Drivers -> "USB Host Driver Support:
CONFIG_USBHOST_TRACE=y : Enable USB host trace feature
CONFIG_USBHOST_TRACE_NRECORDS=256 : Buffer 256 records in memory
CONFIG_USBHOST_TRACE_VERBOSE=y : Buffer everything
Application Configuration -> NSH LIbrary:
CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACE=n : No builtin tracing from NSH
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : Automatically start the USB monitor
Application Configuration -> System NSH Add-Ons:
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMONITOR=y : Enable the USB monitor daemon
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMONITOR_STACKSIZE=2048 : USB monitor daemon stack size
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMONITOR_PRIORITY=50 : USB monitor daemon priority
CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMONITOR_INTERVAL=1 : Dump trace data every second
NOTE: If USB debug output is also enabled, both outpus will appear on the
serial console. However, the debug output will be asynchronous with the
trace output and, hence, difficult to interpret.
SDRAM Support
=============
SRAM Heap Configuration
-----------------------
In these configurations, .data and .bss are retained in ISRAM. SDRAM can
be initialized and included in the heap. Relevant configuration settings:
System Type->ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_MPDDRC=y : Enable the DDR controller
System Type->External Memory Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS=y : Tell the system that DRAM is at the DDR CS
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_SIZE=268435456 : 2Gb DRAM -> 256MB
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_LPDDR2=y : Its DDR2
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_MT47H128M16RT=y : This is the type of DDR2
System Type->Heap Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_HEAP=y : Add the SDRAM to the heap
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_HEAP_OFFSET=0
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_HEAP_SIZE=268435456
Memory Management
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS=2 : Two heap memory regions: ISRAM and SDRAM
RAM Test
--------
Another thing you could do is to enable the RAM test built-in application.
You can enable the NuttX RAM test that may be used to verify the external
SDRAM. To do this, keep the SDRAM out of the heap so that it can be tested
without crashing programs using the memory:
System Type->Heap Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_HEAP=n : Don't add the SDRAM to the heap
Memory Management
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS=1 : One memory regions: ISRAM
Then enable the RAM test built-in application:
Application Configuration->System NSH Add-Ons->Ram Test
CONFIG_SYSTEM_RAMTEST=y
In this configuration, the SDRAM is not added to heap and so is not
accessable to the applications. So the RAM test can be freely executed
against the SRAM memory beginning at address 0x2000:0000 (DDR CS):
nsh> ramtest -h
Usage: <noname> [-w|h|b] <hex-address> <decimal-size>
Where:
<hex-address> starting address of the test.
<decimal-size> number of memory locations (in bytes).
-w Sets the width of a memory location to 32-bits.
-h Sets the width of a memory location to 16-bits (default).
-b Sets the width of a memory location to 8-bits.
To test the entire external 256MB SRAM:
nsh> ramtest -w 20000000 268435456
RAMTest: Marching ones: 20000000 268435456
RAMTest: Marching zeroes: 20000000 268435456
RAMTest: Pattern test: 20000000 268435456 55555555 aaaaaaaa
RAMTest: Pattern test: 20000000 268435456 66666666 99999999
RAMTest: Pattern test: 20000000 268435456 33333333 cccccccc
RAMTest: Address-in-address test: 20000000 268435456
SDRAM Data Configuration
------------------------
In these configurations, .data and .bss are retained in ISRAM by default.
.data and .bss can also be retained in SDRAM using these slightly
different configuration settings. In this configuration, ISRAM is
used only for the Cortex-A5 page table for the IDLE thread stack.
System Type->ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_MPDDRC=y : Enable the DDR controller
System Type->External Memory Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS=y : Tell the system that DRAM is at the DDR CS
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_SIZE=268435456 : 2Gb DRAM -> 256GB
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_LPDDR2=y : Its DDR2
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_MT47H128M16RT=y : This is the type of DDR2
System Type->Heap Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_ISRAM_HEAP=n : These do not apply in this case
CONFIG_SAMA5_DCRS_HEAP=n
System Type->Boot Memory Configuration
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x20000000 : Physical address of SDRAM
CONFIG_RAM_VSTART=0x20000000 : Virtual address of SDRAM
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=268435456 : Size of SDRAM
CONFIG_BOOT_SDRAM_DATA=y : Data is in SDRAM
Care must be used applied these RAM locations; graphics
configurations may use SDRAM in an incompatible way to set aside
LCD framebuffers.
Memory Management
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS=1 : One heap memory region: ISDRAM
NAND Support
============
NAND support is only partial in that there is no file system that works
with it properly. Lower-level NAND support has been developed and
verified, but there is no way to use it in the current NuttX architecture
other than through the raw MTD interface.
NAND should still be considered a work in progress. You will not want to
use NAND unless you are interested in investing a little effort,
particularly in infrastructure. See the "STATUS SUMMARY" section below.
NAND Support
------------
NAND Support can be added to the NSH configuration by modifying the
NuttX configuration file as follows:
Build Setup
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y : NXFFS implementation is incomplete and
: not yet fully functional.
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral support
CONFIG_SAMA5_HSMC=y : Make sure that the SMC is enabled
Drivers -> Memory Technology Device (MTD) Support
CONFIG_MTD=y : Enable MTD support
CONFIG_MTD_NAND=y : Enable NAND support
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_BLOCKCHECK=n : Interferes with NXFFS bad block checking
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_SWECC=y : Use S/W ECC calculation
Defaults for all other NAND settings should be okay
System Type -> External Memory Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_EBICS3=y : Enable External CS3 memory
CONFIG_SAMA5_EBICS3_NAND=y : Select NAND memory type
CONFIG_SAMA5_EBICS3_SIZE=8388608 : Use this size
CONFIG_SAMA5_EBICS3_SWECC=y : Use S/W ECC calculation
Defaults for ROM page table addresses should be okay
Application Configuration -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : Use architecture-specific initialization
NOTES:
1. WARNING: This will wipe out everything that you may have on the NAND
FLASH! I have found that using the JTAG with no valid image on NAND
or Serial FLASH is a problem: In that case, the code always ends up
in the SAM-BA bootloader.
My understanding is that you can enable JTAG in this case by simply
entering any data on the DBG serial port. I have not tried this.
Instead, I just changed to boot from Serial Flash:
2. Unfortunately, there are no appropriate NAND file system in NuttX as
of this writing. The following sections discussion issues/problems
with using NXFFS and FAT.
PMECC
-----
Hardware ECC calculation using the SAMA5D4's PMECC can be enable as
follows:
Drivers -> Memory Technology Device (MTD) Support
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_SWECC=y : Don't use S/W ECC calculation
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_HWECC=y : Use H/W ECC instead
System Type -> External Memory Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_EBICS3_SWECC=n : Don't use S/W ECC calculation
CONFIG_SAMA5_HAVE_PMECC=n : Use H/W ECC instead
Other PMECC-related default settings should be okay.
STATUS: As of the writing, NAND transfers using PMECC appear to
work correctly. However, the PMECC based systems do not work as
as well with FAT or NXFFS. My belief that that the FAT/NXFFS layers
are inappropriate for NAND and, as a result, happen not to work with
the PMECC ECC calculation. See also the "STATUS SUMMARY" section below.
DMA Support
-----------
DMA support can be enabled as follows:
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral support
CONFIG_SAMA5_DMAC0=y : Use DMAC0 for memory-to-memory DMA
System Type -> External Memory Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_NAND_DMA=y : Use DMAC0 for NAND data transfers
STATUS: DMA appears to be functional, but probably has not been
exercised enough to claim that with any certainty. See also the "STATUS
SUMMARY" section below.
NXFFS
-----
The NuttX FLASH File System (NXFFS) works well with NOR-like FLASH
but does not work well with NAND (See comments below under STATUS)
File Systems:
CONFIG_FS_NXFFS=y : Enable the NXFFS file system
Defaults for all other NXFFS settings should be okay.
NOTE: NXFFS will require some significant buffering because of
the large size of the NAND flash blocks. You will also need
to enable SDRAM as described above.
Board Selection
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_NAND_BLOCKMOUNT=y : Enable FS support on NAND
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_NAND_NXFFS=y : Use the NXFFS file system
Other file systems are not recommended because only NXFFS can handle
bad blocks and only NXFFS performs wear-levelling.
FAT
---
Another option is FAT. FAT, however, is not appropriate for use with
NAND: FAT will not handle bad blocks, does not perform any wear
levelling, and may not conform to writing ordering requirements of NAND.
Also, there appear to be issues with FAT when PMECC is enabled (see
"STATUS SUMMARY" below).
File Systems:
CONFIG_FS_FAT=y : Enable the FAT FS
CONFIG_FAT_LCNAMES=y : With lower case name support
CONFIG_FAT_LFN=y : And (patented) FAT long file name support
CONFIG_FS_NXFFS=n : Don't need NXFFS
Defaults for all other NXFFS settings should be okay.
Board Selection
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_NAND_BLOCKOMOUNT=y : Enable FS support on NAND
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_NAND_FTL=y : Use an flash translation layer
NOTE: FTL will require some significant buffering because of
the large size of the NAND flash blocks. You will also need
to enable SDRAM as described above.
SMART FS
--------
Another option is Smart FS. Smart FS is another small file system
designed to work with FLASH. Properties: It does support some wear-
leveling like NXFFS, but like FAT, cannot handle bad blocks and like
NXFFS, it will try to re-write erased bits.
Using NAND with NXFFS
---------------------
With the options CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_NAND_BLOCKMOUNT=y and
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_NAND_NXFFS=y, the NAND FLASH will be mounted in the NSH
start-up logic before the NSH prompt appears. There is no feedback as
to whether or not the mount was successful. You can, however, see the
mounted file systems using the nsh 'mount' command:
nsh> mount
/mnt/nand type nxffs
Then NAND can be used like any other file system:
nsh> echo "This is a test" >/mnt/nand/atest.txt
nsh> ls -l /mnt/nand
/mnt/nand:
---x--x--x 16 atest.txt
nsh> cat /mnt/nand/atest.txt
This is a test
The NAND volume can be un-mounted with this comment:
nsh> umount /mnt/nand
nsh> mount
And re-mounted with this command:
nsh> mount -t nxffs /mnt/mystuff
nsh> mount
/mnt/mystuff type nxffs
NOTES:
1. NXFFS can be very slow. The first time that you start the system,
be prepared for a wait; NXFFS will need to format the NAND volume.
I have lots of debug on so I don't yet know what the optimized wait
will be. But with debug ON, software ECC, and no DMA the wait is
in many tens of minutes (and substantially longer if many debug
options are enabled.
[I don't yet have data for the more optimal cases. It will be
significantly less, but still not fast.]
2. On subsequent boots, after the NXFFS file system has been created
the delay will be less. When the new file system is empty, it will
be very fast. But the NAND-related boot time can become substantial
when there has been a lot of usage of the NAND. This is because
NXFFS needs to scan the NAND device and build the in-memory dataset
needed to access NAND and there is more that must be scanned after
the device has been used. You may want to create a separate thread at
boot time to bring up NXFFS so that you don't delay the boot-to-prompt
time excessively in these longer delay cases.
3. There is another NXFFS related performance issue: When the FLASH
is fully used, NXFFS will restructure the entire FLASH, the delay
to restructure the entire FLASH will probably be even larger. This
solution in this case is to implement an NXFSS clean-up daemon that
does the job a little-at-a-time so that there is no massive clean-up
when the FLASH becomes full.
4. Bad NXFFS behavior with NAND: If you restart NuttX, the files that
you wrote to NAND will be gone. Why? Because the multiple writes
have corrupted the NAND ECC bits. See STATUS below. NXFFS would
require a major overhaul to be usable with NAND.
Using NAND with FAT
-------------------
If configured for FAT, the system will create block driver at
/dev/mtdblock0:
NuttShell (NSH)
nsh> ls /dev
/dev:
console
mtdblock0
null
ttyS0
You will not that the system comes up immediately because there is not
need to scan the volume in this case..
The NSH 'mkfatfs' command can be used to format a FAT file system on
NAND.
nsh> mkfatfs /dev/mtdblock0
This step, on the other hand, requires quite a bit of time.
And the FAT file system can be mounted like:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt/nand
nsh> ls /mnt/nand
/mnt/nand:
nsh> echo "This is a test" > /mnt/nand/atest.txt
NOTE: This will take a long time because it will require reading,
modifying, and re-writing the 128KB erase page!
nsh> ls -l /mnt/nand
/mnt/nand:
-rw-rw-rw- 16 atest.txt
nsh> cat /mnt/fat/atest.txt
This is a test
NOTES:
1. Unlike NXFFS, FAT can work with NAND (at least with PMECC disabled).
But there are some significant issues.
2. First, each NAND write access will cause a 256KB data transfer: It
will read the entire 128KB erase block, modify it and write it back
to memory. There is some caching logic so that this cached erase
block can be re-used if possible and writes will be deferred as long
as possible.
3. If you hit a bad block, then FAT is finished. There is no mechanism
in place in FAT not to mark and skip over bad blocks.
What is Needed
--------------
What is needed to work with FAT properly would be another MTD layer
between the FTL layer and the NAND FLASH layer. That layer would
perform bad block detection and sparing so that FAT works transparently
on top of the NAND.
Another, less general, option would be support bad blocks within FAT.
STATUS SUMMARY
--------------
1. PMECC appears to be working in that I can write a NAND block with its
ECC and read the block back and verify that that is are no bit
failures. However, when attempting to work with FAT, it does not
work correctly: The MBR is written and read back correctly, but gets
corrupted later for unknown reasons.
2. DMA works (at least with software ECC), but I have seen occasional
failures. I recommend enabling DMA with caution.
In NuttX, DMA will also cost two context switches (and, hence, four
register state transfers). With smaller NAND page sizes (say 2KiB and
below), I would expect little or no performance improvement with DMA
for this reason.
3. NXFFS does not work with NAND. NAND differs from other other FLASH
types several ways. For one thing, NAND requires error correction
(ECC) bytes that must be set in order to work around bit failures.
This affects NXFFS in two ways:
a. First, write failures are not fatal. Rather, they should be tried by
bad blocks and simply ignored. This is because unrecoverable bit
failures will cause read failures when reading from NAND. Setting
the CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL+CONFIG_NXFFS_NANDs option will enable this
behavior.
b. Secondly, NXFFS will write a block many times. It tries to keep
bits in the erased state and assumes that it can overwrite those bits
to change them from the erased to the non-erased state. This works
will with NOR-like FLASH. NAND behaves this way too. But the
problem with NAND is that the ECC bits cannot be re-written in this
way. So once a block has been written, it cannot be modified. This
behavior has NOT been fixed in NXFFS. Currently, NXFFS will attempt
to re-write the ECC bits causing the ECC to become corrupted because
the ECC bits cannot be overwritten without erasing the entire block.
This may prohibit NXFFS from ever being used with NAND.
4. As mentioned above, FAT does work but (1) has some performance issues on
writes and (2) cannot handle bad blocks.
I2C Tool
========
I2C Tool. NuttX supports an I2C tool at apps/system/i2c that can be used
to peek and poke I2C devices. That tool can be enabled by setting the
following:
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_TWI0=y : Enable TWI0
CONFIG_SAMA5_TWI1=y : Enable TWI1
CONFIG_SAMA5_TWI2=y : Enable TWI2
System Type -> TWI device driver options
SAMA5_TWI0_FREQUENCY=100000 : Select a TWI0 frequency (default)
SAMA5_TWI1_FREQUENCY=100000 : Select a TWI1 frequency (default)
SAMA5_TWI2_FREQUENCY=100000 : Select a TWI2 frequency (default)
Device Drivers -> I2C Driver Support
CONFIG_I2C=y : Enable I2C support
CONFIG_I2C_TRANSFER=y : Driver supports the transfer() method

CONFIG_I2CTOOL_MAXBUS=2 : TWI2 has the maximum bus number 2
CONFIG_I2CTOOL_DEFFREQ=100000 : Pick a consistent frequency
The I2C tool has extensive help that can be accessed as follows:
nsh> i2c help
Usage: i2c <cmd> [arguments]
Where <cmd> is one of:
Show help : ?
List busses : bus
List devices : dev [OPTIONS] <first> <last>
Read register : get [OPTIONS] [<repititions>]
Show help : help
Write register: set [OPTIONS] <value> [<repititions>]
Verify access : verf [OPTIONS] [<value>] [<repititions>]
Where common "sticky" OPTIONS include:
[-a addr] is the I2C device address (hex). Default: 03 Current: 03
[-b bus] is the I2C bus number (decimal). Default: 0 Current: 0
[-r regaddr] is the I2C device register address (hex). Default: 00 Current: 00
[-w width] is the data width (8 or 16 decimal). Default: 8 Current: 8
[-s|n], send/don't send start between command and data. Default: -n Current: -n
[-i|j], Auto increment|don't increment regaddr on repititions. Default: NO Current: NO
[-f freq] I2C frequency. Default: 100000 Current: 100000
NOTES:
o Arguments are "sticky". For example, once the I2C address is
specified, that address will be re-used until it is changed.
WARNING:
o The I2C dev command may have bad side effects on your I2C devices.
Use only at your own risk.
As an example, the I2C dev comman can be used to list all devices
responding on TWI0 (the default) like this:
nsh> i2c dev 0x03 0x77
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f
00: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

30: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
40: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 4c -- -- --
50: 50 -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 5b -- -- -- --
60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
nsh>
Addresses 0x1b, 0x4c, and 0x50 are devices on the TM7000 module.
0x5b is the address of the on-board PMIC chip.
SAMA5 ADC Support
=================
Basic driver configuration
--------------------------
ADC support can be added to the NSH configuration. However, there are no
ADC input pins available to the user for ADC testing (the touchscreen ADC
inputs are intended for other functionality). Because of this, there is
not much motivation to enable ADC support on the SAMA4D4-EK. This
paragraph is included here, however, for people using a custom SAMA5D4x
board that requires ADC support.
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC=y : Enable ADC driver support
CONFIG_SAMA5_TC0=y : Enable the Timer/counter library need for periodic sampling
Drivers
CONFIG_ANALOG=y : Should be automatically selected
CONFIG_ADC=y : Should be automatically selected
System Type -> ADC Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_CHAN0=y : These settings enable the sequencer to collect
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_CHAN1=y : Samples from ADC channels 0-3 on each trigger
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_CHAN2=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_CHAN3=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_SEQUENCER=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_TIOA0TRIG=y : Trigger on the TC0, channel 0 output A
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_TIOAFREQ=2 : At a frequency of 2Hz
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_TIOA_RISING=y : Trigger on the rising edge
Default ADC settings (like gain and offset) may also be set if desired.
System Type -> Timer/counter Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_TC0_TIOA0=y : Should be automatically selected
Work queue supported is also needed:
Library routines
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y
ADC Test Example
----------------
For testing purposes, there is an ADC program at apps/examples/adc that
will collect a specified number of samples. This test program can be
enabled as follows:
Application Configuration -> Examples -> ADC example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ADC=y : Enables the example code
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ADC_DEVPATH="/dev/adc0"
Other default settings for the ADC example should be okay.
ADC DMA Support
---------------
At 2Hz, DMA is not necessary nor desire-able. The ADC driver has support
for DMA transfers of converted data (although that support has not been
tested as of this writing). DMA support can be added by include the
following in the configuration.
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_DMAC1=y : Enable DMAC1 support
System Type -> ADC Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_DMA=y : Enable ADC DMA transfers
CONFIG_SAMA5_ADC_DMASAMPLES=2 : Collect two sets of samples per DMA
Drivers -> Analog device (ADC/DAC) support
CONFIG_ADC_FIFOSIZE=16 : Driver may need a large ring buffer
Application Configuration -> Examples -> ADC example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ADC_GROUPSIZE=16 : Larger buffers in the test
SAMA5 PWM Support
=================
Basic driver configuration
--------------------------
PWM support can be added to the NSH configuration. However, there are no
PWM output pins available to the user for PWM testing. Because of this,
there is not much motivation to enable PWM support on the SAMA4D4-EK. This
paragraph is included here, however, for people using a custom SAMA5D4x
board that requires PWM support.
Basic driver configuration:
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM=y : Enable PWM driver support
Drivers
CONFIG_PWM=y : Should be automatically selected
PWM Channel/Output Selection
----------------------------
In order to use the PWM, you must enable one or more PWM Channels:
System Type -> PWM Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHAN0=y : Enable one or more of channels 0-3
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHAN1=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHAN2=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHAN3=y
For each channel that is enabled, you must also specify the output pins
to be enabled and the clocking supplied to the PWM channel.
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_FAULTINPUT=n : (not used currently)
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_OUTPUTH=y : Enable One of both of the H and L output pins
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_OUTPUTL=y
Where x=0..3.
Care must be taken because all PWM output pins conflict with some other
usage of the pin by other devices. Furthermore, many of these pins have
not been brought out to an external connector:

See configs/sama5d4-ek/include/board.h for all of the default PWM
pin selections. I used PWM channel 0, pins PA20 and PA21 for testing.
Clocking is addressed in the next paragraph.
PWM Clock Configuration
-----------------------
PWM Channels can be clocked from either a coarsely divided divided down
MCK or from a custom frequency from PWM CLKA and/or CLKB. If you want
to use CLKA or CLKB, you must enable and configure them.
System Type -> PWM Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CLKA=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CLKA_FREQUENCY=3300
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CLKB=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CLKB_FREQUENCY=3300
Then for each of the enabled, channels you must select the input clock
for that channel:
System Type -> PWM Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_CLKA=y : Pick one of MCK, CLKA, or CLKB (only)
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_CLKB=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_MCK=y
CONFIG_SAMA5_PWM_CHANx_MCKDIV=128 : If MCK is selected, then the MCK divider must
: also be provided (1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512, or 1024).
PWM Test Example
----------------
For testing purposes, there is an PWM program at apps/examples/pwm that
will collect a specified number of samples. This test program can be
enabled as follows:
Application Configuration -> Examples -> PWM example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM=y : Enables the example code
Other default settings for the PWM example should be okay.
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM_DEVPATH="/dev/pwm0"
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM_FREQUENCY=100
Usage of the example is straightforward:
nsh> pwm -h
Usage: pwm [OPTIONS]
Arguments are "sticky". For example, once the PWM frequency is
specified, that frequency will be re-used until it is changed.
"sticky" OPTIONS include:
[-p devpath] selects the PWM device. Default: /dev/pwm0 Current: /dev/pwm0
[-f frequency] selects the pulse frequency. Default: 100 Hz Current: 100 Hz
[-d duty] selects the pulse duty as a percentage. Default: 50 % Current: 50 %
[-t duration] is the duration of the pulse train in seconds. Default: 5 Current: 5
[-h] shows this message and exits
RTC
===
The Real Time Clock/Calendar RTC) may be enabled with these settings:
System Type:
CONFIG_SAMA5_RTC=y : Enable the RTC driver
Drivers (these values will be selected automatically):
CONFIG_RTC=y : Use the RTC for system time
CONFIG_RTC_DATETIME=y : RTC supports data/time
NOTE: If you want the RTC to preserve time over power cycles, you will
need to install a battery in the battery holder (J12) and close the jumper,
JP13.
You can set the RTC using the NSH date command:
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-7.3
nsh> help date
date usage: date [-s "MMM DD HH:MM:SS YYYY"]
nsh> date
Jan 01 00:34:45 2012
nsh> date -s "JUN 29 7:30:00 2014"
nsh> date
Jun 29 07:30:01 2014
After a power cycle and reboot:
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-7.3
nsh> date
Jun 29 07:30:55 2014
nsh>
The RTC also supports an alarm that may be enable with the following
settings. However, there is nothing in the system that currently makes
use of this alarm.
Drivers:
CONFIG_RTC_ALARM=y : Enable the RTC alarm
Library Routines
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y : Alarm needs work queue support
Watchdog Timer
==============
NSH can be configured to exercise the watchdog timer test
(apps/examples/watchdog). This can be selected with the following
settings in the NuttX configuration file:
System Type:
CONFIG_SAMA5_WDT=y : Enable the WDT peripheral
: Defaults values for others settings
should be OK
Drivers (this will automatically be selected):
CONFIG_WATCHDOG=y : Enables watchdog timer driver support
Application Configuration -> Examples
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG=y : Enable apps/examples/watchdog
The WDT timer is driven off the slow, 32768Hz clock divided by 128. As a
result, the watchdog a maximum timeout value of 16 seconds. The SAMA5 WDT
may also only be programmed one time; the processor must be reset before
the WDT can be reprogrammed.
The SAMA5 always boots with the watchdog timer enabled at its maximum
timeout (16 seconds). In the normal case where no watchdog timer driver
has been configured, the watchdog timer is disabled as part of the start
up logic. But, since we are permitted only one opportunity to program
the WDT, we cannot disable the watchdog time if CONFIG_SAMA5_WDT=y. So,
be forewarned: You have only 16 seconds to run your watchdog timer test!
NOTE: If you are using the dramboot program to run from DRAM as I did,
beware that the default version also disables the watchdog. You will
need a special version of dramboot with CONFIG_SAMA5_WDT=y.
TRNG and /dev/random
====================
NSH can be configured to enable the SAMA5 TRNG peripheral so that it
provides /dev/random. The following configuration will enable the TRNG,
and support for /dev/random:
System Type:
CONFIG_SAMA5_TRNG=y : Enable the TRNG peripheral
Drivers:
CONFIG_DEV_RANDOM=y : Enable /dev/random
A simple test of /dev/random is available at apps/examples/random and
can be enabled as a NSH application via the following additional
configuration settings:
Applications -> Examples
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_RANDOM=y : Enable apps/examples/random
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MAXSAMPLES=64 : Default settings are probably OK
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NSAMPLES=8
Audio Support
==============
WM8904 CODEC
------------
The SAMA4D4-EK has two devices on-board that can be used for verification
of I2S functionality: HDMI and a WM8904 audio CODEC. As of this writing,
the I2S driver is present, but there are not drivers for either the HDMI
or the WM8904.

Note that jumper JP23 must be closed to connect AUDIO_TWD0_PA30 (Rev C. only)
WM8904 Configuration
--------------------
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_XDMAC0=y : XDMAC0 required by SSC0
CONFIG_SAMA5_TWI0=y : Enable TWI0 driver support
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSCO=y : Enable SSC0 driver support
System Type -> SSC0 Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5D4_MB_REVE=y : No WM8904 for Rev C version of the board
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC_MAXINFLIGHT=16
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_DATALEN=16
Device Drivers -> I2C Driver Support
CONFIG_I2C=y : Enable I2C support
CONFIG_I2C_TRANSFER=y : Support the transfer method
CONFIG_I2C_RESET=n : (Maybe y, if you have bus problems)
System Type -> SSC Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC_MAXINFLIGHT=16 : Up to 16 pending DMA transfers
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_DATALEN=16 : 16-bit data

CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_RX_RKINPUT=y : Receiver gets clock the RK0 input
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_RX_FSLEN=1 : Minimal frame sync length
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_RX_STTDLY=1 : Start delay
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_TX=y : Support a transmitter
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_TX_RXCLK=y : Transmitter gets clock the RXCLCK
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_TX_FSLEN=0 : Disable frame synch generation
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_TX_STTDLY=1 : Start delay
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0_TX_TKOUTPUT_NONE=y : No output
Audio Support
CONFIG_AUDIO=y : Audio support needed
CONFIG_AUDIO_FORMAT_PCM=y : Only PCM files are supported
CONFIG_AUDIO_NUM_BUFFERS=8 : Number of audio buffers
CONFIG_AUDIO_BUFFER_NUMBYTES=8192 : Audio buffer size
Drivers -> Audio
CONFIG_I2S=y : General I2S support
CONFIG_AUDIO_DEVICES=y : Audio device support
CONFIG_AUDIO_WM8904=y : Build WM8904 driver character driver
Board Selection
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_WM8904_I2CFREQUENCY=400000
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_WM8904_SRCMAIN=y : WM8904 MCLK is the SAMA5D Main Clock
Library Routines
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y : MW8904 driver needs work queue support
I2S Loopback Test
-----------------
The I2S driver was verified using a special I2C character driver (at
nuttx/drivers/audio/i2schar.c) and a test driver at apps/examples/i2schar.
The I2S driver was verified in loopback mode with no audio device. That
test case has never been exercised on the SAMA454-EK. See the README.txt
file at SAMA5D4-EK for information about how you might implement this test
for the SAMA5D4-EK.
The NxPlayer
------------
The NxPlayer is a audio library and command line application for playing
audio file. The NxPlayer can be found at apps/system/nxplayer. If you
would like to add the NxPlayer, here are some recommended configuration
settings.
First of all, the NxPlayer depends on the NuttX audio subsystem. See the
"WM8904 Configuration" above for an example of how the audio subsystem is
configured to use the WM8904 CODED with PCM decoding. Or, for testing
purposes, here is how might want to configure NULL, do-nothing audio
device:
Audio Support ->
CONFIG_AUDIO=y
CONFIG_AUDIO_NUM_BUFFERS=4
CONFIG_AUDIO_BUFFER_NUMBYTES=8192
CONFIG_AUDIO_FORMAT_PCM=y
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL=y
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_BUFFER_SIZE=8192
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_MSG_PRIO=1
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_WORKER_STACKSIZE=768
Then the NxPlayer can be enabled as follows:
System Libraries and NSH Add-Ons -> NxPlayer media player / command line ->
CONFIG_SYSTEM_NXPLAYER=y : Build the NxPlayer library
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_PLAYTHREAD_STACKSIZE=1500 : Size of the audio player stack
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_COMMAND_LINE=y : Build command line application
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_INCLUDE_HELP=y : Includes a help command
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_INCLUDE_DEVICE_SEARCH=n : (Since there is only one audio device)
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_INCLUDE_PREFERRED_DEVICE=y : Only one audio device is supported
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_FMT_FROM_EXT=y : (Since only PCM is supported)
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_FMT_FROM_HEADER=n : (Since only PCM is supported)
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_INCLUDE_MEDIADIR=y : Specify a media directory
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_DEFAULT_MEDIADIR="/mnt/sdcard" : See below
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_RECURSIVE_MEDIA_SEARCH=y : Search all sub-directories
CONFIG_NXPLAYER_INCLUDE_SYSTEM_RESET=y : Add support for reset command
You must include the full path to the location where NxPlayer can find the
media files. That path is given by CONFIG_NXPLAYER_DEFAULT_MEDIADIR.
Here I use the example "/mnt/scard". That is a location where you could,
for example, mount an MMC/SD card driver.
TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen
======================
The TM7000 LCD is available for the SAMA5D4-EK. See documentation
available on the Precision Design Associates website:
http://www.pdaatl.com/doc/tm7000.pdf
The TM7000 features:
- 7 inch LCD at 800x480 18-bit RGB resolution and white backlight
- Projected Capacitive Multi-Touch Controller based on the Atmel
MXT768E maXTouch� IC
- 4 Capacitive �Navigation� Keys available via an Atmel AT42QT1070
QTouch� Button Sensor IC
- 200 bytes of non-volatile serial EEPROM
NOTE: It appears that my TM7000 differs slightly from the version
described in the tm7000.pdf file: That document claims that the
hardware interface to the LCD is 18-bit RGB666; but the one that
I have is certainly 24-bit RGB888. If you have LCD issues, you may
need to tweak some of the settings in configs/sama5d4-ek/include/board.h.
Jumper JP2 selects either the EMAC1 or the LCD by controlling the
the LCD_ETH1_CONFIG signal on the board.
- JP2 open, LCD_ETH1_CONFIG pulled high:
LCD_ETH1_CONFIG=1: LCD 5v enable(LCD_DETECT#=0); ETH1 disable
- JP2 closed, LCD_ETH1_CONFIG grounded:
LCD_ETH1_CONFIG=0: LCD 5v disable; ETH1 enable

LCD Configuration
-----------------
Here is a configuration that enables the LCD with backlight in RGB565
color mode. Notice that this configuration sets up an LCD framebuffer of
size 6,291,456 (0x0060:0000, 6MiB) at the end of DRAM. DRAM begins at
address 0x2000:0000 and has size 268,435,456 (0x1000:0000); The
framebuffer the begins at 0x2000:0000 + 0x1000:0000 - 0x0060:0000 =
0x2fa0:0000.
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support ->
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC=y : Enable LCDC
System Type -> LCDC Configuration ->
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_BACKLIGHT=y : With backlight
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_DEFBACKLIGHT=0xc8
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_BACKCOLOR=0x7b5d : Color to use when clearing the display
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_FB_VBASE=0x2fa00000 : Set aside the framebuffer
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_FB_PBASE=0x2fa00000
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_FB_SIZE=6291456
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_BASE_ROT0=y : No rotation
CONFIG_SAMA5_LCDC_BASE_RGB565=y : RGB565 color format
This framebuffer size must then be subtracted from the memory available in the
heap (0x3000:0000 - 0x0058:0000 = 0x2fa8:0000):
System Type -> Heap Configuration ->
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_RESERVE=y : Reserve DRAM for the framebuffer
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_HEAP_END=0x2fa00000 : End of DRAM heap (excludes framebuffer)
There are several simple graphics examples under apps/examples/ that can
be use to verify the LCD: nx, nxhello, nximage, nxlines, nxtext. See
apps/examples/README.txt for information about configuring these examples.
For example, these settings will enable the apps/examples/nx example. The
NX example is a simple test using the NuttX graphics system (NX). This
test case focuses on general window controls, movement, mouse and keyboard
input. It requires no user interaction.
First you need to enable NuttX graphics support:
Graphics Support ->
CONFIG_NX=y : Enable NX graphics
CONFIG_NX_NPLANES=1 : 1 color plane
CONFIG_NX_PACKEDMSFIRST=y
Graphics Support -> Supported Pixel Depths ->
CONFIG_NX_DISABLE_1BPP=y : Disable all resolutions except 16 bpp
CONFIG_NX_DISABLE_2BPP=y
CONFIG_NX_DISABLE_4BPP=y
CONFIG_NX_DISABLE_8BPP=y
CONFIG_NX_DISABLE_24BPP=y
CONFIG_NX_DISABLE_32BPP=y
Graphics Support -> Input Devices ->
CONFIG_NX_XYINPUT=y : Build in mouse/touchscreen support (not used)
CONFIG_NX_KBD=y : Build in keyboard support (not used)
Graphics Support -> Framed Window Borders ->
CONFIG_NXTK_BORDERWIDTH=4 : Framed window configuration
CONFIG_NXTK_DEFAULT_BORDERCOLORS=y
Graphics Support -> Font Selections ->
CONFIG_NXFONTS_CHARBITS=7 : Font configuration
CONFIG_NXFONT_SERIF22X28B=y
Then you can enable the NX example:
Application Configuration -> Examples -> NX graphics example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX=y : Enable the NX example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_VPLANE=0 : Use color plane 0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_DEVNO=0 : Use device zero
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_DEFAULT_COLORS=y : Use default colors
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_DEFAULT_FONT=y : Use default fonts
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_BPP=16 : Use 16 bpp
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_TOOLBAR_HEIGHT=16 : Configure toolbar

CONFIG_SAMA5_PIO_IRQ=y : Support for PIOE interrupts
CONFIG_SAMA5_PIOE_IRQ=y

Board Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_MXT_DEVMINOR=0
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_MXT_I2CFREQUENCY=100000

Tickless OS
===========
Background
----------
By default, a NuttX configuration uses a periodic timer interrupt that
drives all system timing. The timer is provided by architecture-specifi
code that calls into NuttX at a rate controlled by CONFIG_USEC_PER_TICK.
The default value of CONFIG_USEC_PER_TICK is 10000 microseconds which
corresponds to a timer interrupt rate of 100 Hz.
An option is to configure NuttX to operation in a "tickless" mode. Some
limitations of default system timer are, in increasing order of
importance:
- Overhead: Although the CPU usage of the system timer interrupt at 100Hz
is really very low, it is still mostly wasted processing time. One most
timer interrupts, there is really nothing that needs be done other than
incrementing the counter.
- Resolution: Resolution of all system timing is also determined by
CONFIG_USEC_PER_TICK. So nothing that be time with resolution finer than
10 milliseconds be default. To increase this resolution,
CONFIG_USEC_PER_TICK an be reduced. However, then the system timer
interrupts use more of the CPU bandwidth processing useless interrupts.
- Power Usage: But the biggest issue is power usage. When the system is
IDLE, it enters a light, low-power mode (for ARMs, this mode is entered
with the wfi or wfe instructions for example). But each interrupt
awakens the system from this low power mode. Therefore, higher rates
of interrupts cause greater power consumption.
The so-called Tickless OS provides one solution to issue. The basic
concept here is that the periodic, timer interrupt is eliminated and
replaced with a one-shot, interval timer. It becomes event driven
instead of polled: The default system timer is a polled design. On
each interrupt, the NuttX logic checks if it needs to do anything
and, if so, it does it.
Using an interval timer, one can anticipate when the next interesting
OS event will occur, program the interval time and wait for it to fire.
When the interval time fires, then the scheduled activity is performed.
Configuration
-------------
The following configuration options will enable support for the Tickless
OS for the SAMA5D platforms using TC0 channels 0-3 (other timers or
timer channels could be used making the obvious substitutions):
RTOS Features -> Clocks and Timers
CONFIG_SCHED_TICKLESS=y : Configures the RTOS in tickless mode
CONFIG_SCHED_TICKLESS_ALARM=n : (option not implemented)
System Type -> SAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_TC0=y : Enable TC0 (TC channels 0-3
System Type -> Timer/counter Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_ONESHOT=y : Enables one-shot timer wrapper
CONFIG_SAMA5_FREERUN=y : Enabled free-running timer wrapper
CONFIG_SAMA5_TICKLESS_ONESHOT=0 : Selects TC0 channel 0 for the one-shot
CONFIG_SAMA5_TICKLESS_FREERUN=1 : Selects TC0 channel 1 for the free-
: running timer
NOTE: In most cases, the slow clock will be used as the timer/counter
input. You should enable the 32.768KHz crystal for the slow clock by
calling sam_sckc_enable(). Otherwise, you will be doing all system
timing using the RC clock! UPDATE: This will now be selected by default
when you configure for TICKLESS support.
UPDATE: As of this writing (2014-8-11), the Tickless support is
functional. However, the timing for all delays appears to be half the
duration that it should be. I don't see anything wrong with the setup
and I am suspecting that there may be something I don't understand about
the counting frequency.
SAMA5 Timer Usage
-----------------
This current implementation uses two timers: A one-shot timer to
provide the timed events and a free running timer to provide the current
time. Since timers are a limited resource, that could be an issue on
some systems.
We could do the job with a single timer if we were to keep the single
timer in a free-running at all times. The SAMA5 timer/counters have
32-bit counters with the capability to generate a compare interrupt when
the timer matches a compare value but also to continue counting without
stopping (giving another, different interrupt when the timer rolls over
from 0xffffffff to zero). So we could potentially just set the compare
at the number of ticks you want PLUS the current value of timer. Then
you could have both with a single timer: An interval timer and a free-
running counter with the same timer! In this case, you would want to
to set CONFIG_SCHED_TICKLESS_ALARM in the NuttX configuration.
Patches are welcome!
SAMA4D4-EK Configuration Options
=================================

Information Common to All Configurations
----------------------------------------
Each SAMA4D4-EK configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
cd tools
./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/<subdir>
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Before sourcing the setenv.sh file above, you should examine it and perform
edits as necessary so that TOOLCHAIN_BIN is the correct path to the directory
than holds your toolchain binaries.
And then build NuttX by simply typing the following. At the conclusion of
the make, the nuttx binary will reside in an ELF file called, simply, nuttx.
make
The <subdir> that is provided above as an argument to the tools/configure.sh
must be is one of the following.
NOTES:
1. These configurations use the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change any of these configurations using that tool, you should:
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. Unless stated otherwise, all configurations generate console
output on the DBGU (J23).
3. All of these configurations use the Code Sourcery for Windows toolchain
(unless stated otherwise in the description of the configuration). That
toolchain selection can easily be reconfigured using 'make menuconfig'.
Here are the relevant current settings:
Build Setup:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Microsoft Windows
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Using Cygwin or other POSIX environment
System Type -> Toolchain:
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : GNU EABI toolchain for windows
That same configuration will work with Atmel GCC toolchain. The only
change required to use the Atmel GCC toolchain is to change the PATH
variable so that those tools are selected instead of the CodeSourcery
tools. Try 'which arm-none-eabi-gcc' to make sure that you are
selecting the right tool.
The setenv.sh file is available for you to use to set the PATH
variable. The path in the that file may not, however, be correct
for your installation.
See also the "NOTE about Windows native toolchains" in the section call
"GNU Toolchain Options" above.
!!!WARNING!!! The first time that you type 'make', the system will
configure itself based on the settings in the .config file. One of
these settings can cause a lot of confusion if you configure the build
in the wrong state: If you are running on Linux, make *certain* that
you have CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y *before* the first make or you will
create a very corrupt configuration that may not be easy to recover
from.
4. The SAMA5Dx is running at 528MHz by default in these configurations.
Board Selection -> CPU Frequency
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_528MHZ=y : Enable 528MHz operation
CONFIG_BOARD_LOOPSPERMSEC=65775 : Calibrated on SAMA5D3-Xplained at
: 528MHz running from SDRAM
Configuration Sub-directories
-----------------------------
Summary: Some of the descriptions below are long and wordy. Here is the
concise summary of the available SAMA4D4-EK configurations:
at25boot: This is a little program to write a boot loader into the
AT25 serial FLASH (in particular, dramboot). See the description
below and the section above entitled "Creating and Using AT25BOOT"
for more information
dramboot: This is a little program to help debug of code in DRAM. See
the description below and the section above entitled "Creating and
Using DRAMBOOT" for more information
elf: Demonstrates execution of ELF file from a file system.
knsh: An NSH configuration used to test the SAMA5D kernel build
configuration. Uses a tiny NSH configuration that runs at
start time from a mounted file system.
nsh: This is an NuttShell (NSH) configuration that supports extensive
functionality as possible (unlike the minimal ramtest configuration).
See the detailed description below for a summary of the feature
set supported by this configuration. You may want to disable some
of these features if you plan to use the NSH as a platform for
debugging and integrating new features.
nxwm: This is a special configuration setup for the NxWM window manager
UnitTest. It integrates support for both the SAMA5 LCDC and the
SAMA5 ADC touchscreen controller and provides a more advance
graphics demo. It provides an interactive windowing experience.
ramtest: This is a stripped down version of NSH that runs out of
internal SRAM. It configures SDRAM and supports only the RAM test
at apps/examples/ramtest. This configuration is useful for
bringing up SDRAM.
There may be issues with some of these configurations. See the details
before of the status of individual configurations.
Now for the gory details:
at25boot:
To work around some SAM-BA availability issues that I had at one time,
I created the at25boot program. at25boot is a tiny program that runs in
ISRAM. at25boot will enable SDRAM and configure the AT25 Serial FLASH.
It will prompt and then load an Intel HEX program into SDRAM over the
serial console. If the program is successfully loaded in SDRAM, at25boot
will copy the program at the beginning of the AT26 Serial FLASH.
If the jumpering is set correctly, the SAMA5D4 RomBOOT loader will
then boot the program from the serial FLASH the next time that it
reset.
The usage is different, otherwise I believe the notes for the dramboot
configuration should all apply.
STATUS: While this program works great and appears to correctly write
the binary image onto the AT25 Serial FLASH, the RomBOOT loader will
not boot it! I believe that is because the secure boot loader has some
undocumented requirements that I am unaware of. (2014-6-28)
dramboot:
This is a little program to help debug of code in DRAM. It does the
following:
- Sets the clocking so that the SAMA5 is running at 528MHz.
- Configures DRAM,
- Loads and Intel HEX file into DRAM over the terminal port,
- Waits for you to break in with GDB (or optionally starts the
newly loaded program).
At that point, you can set the PC and begin executing from SDRAM under
debug control. See the section entitled "Creating and Using
DRAMBOOT" above.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the the USART3 for the serial console
which is available at the "DBGU" RS-232 connector (J24). That
is easily changed by reconfiguring to (1) enable a different
serial peripheral, and (2) selecting that serial peripheral as
the console device.
2. By default, this configuration is set up to build on Windows
under either a Cygwin or MSYS environment using a recent, Windows-
native, generic ARM EABI GCC toolchain (such as the CodeSourcery
toolchain). Both the build environment and the toolchain
selection can easily be changed by reconfiguring:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows operating system
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : POSIX environment under windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
If you are running on Linux, make *certain* that you have
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y *before* the first make or you will create a
corrupt configuration that may not be easy to recover from. See
the warning in the section "Information Common to All Configurations"
for further information.
3. This configuration executes out of internal SRAM flash and is
loaded into SRAM by the boot RomBoot from NAND, Serial
DataFlash, SD card or from a TFTPC sever via the Boot ROM.
Data also is positioned in SRAM.
2. The default dramboot program initializes the DRAM memory,
displays a message, loads an Intel HEX program into DRAM over the
serial console and halts. The dramboot program can also be
configured to jump directly into DRAM without requiring the
final halt and go by setting CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_DRAM_START=y in the
NuttX configuration.
3. Be aware that the default dramboot also disables the watchdog.
Since you will not be able to re-enable the watchdog later, you may
need to set CONFIG_SAMA5_WDT=y in the NuttX configuration file.
4. If you put dramboot on the Serial FLASH, you can automatically
boot to SDRAM on reset. See the section "Creating and Using DRAMBOOT"
above.
5. Here are the steps that I use to execute this program in SRAM
using only the ROM Bootloader:
a) Hold the DIS_BOOT button and
b) With the DIS_BOOT button pressed, power cycle the board. A
reset does not seem to be sufficient.
c) The serial should show RomBOOT in a terminal window (at 115200
8N1) and nothing more.
d) Press ENTER in the terminal window a few times to enable JTAG.
e) Start the Segger GDB server. It should successfully connect to
the board via JTAG (if JTAG was correctly enabled in step d)).
f) Start GDB, connect, to the GDB server, load NuttX, and debug.
gdb> target remote localhost:2331
gdb> mon halt (don't do mon reset)
gdb> load nuttx
gdb> mon reg pc (make sure that the PC is 0x200040
gdb> ... and debug ...
STATUS: I don't have a working SAM-BA at the moment and there are issues
with my AT25BOOT (see above). I currently work around these issues by
putting DRAMBOOT on a microSD card (as boot.bin). The RomBOOT loader does
boot that image without issue.
elf:
Demonstrates execution of ELF file from a file system using
apps/examples/elf. This is a very simple configuration so there is not
really much that needs to be said.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the the USART3 for the serial console
which is available at the "DBGU" RS-232 connector (J24). That
is easily changed by reconfiguring to (1) enable a different
serial peripheral, and (2) selecting that serial peripheral as
the console device.
2. By default, this configuration is set up to build on Windows
under either a Cygwin or MSYS environment using a recent, Windows-
native, generic ARM EABI GCC toolchain (such as the CodeSourcery
toolchain). Both the build environment and the toolchain
selection can easily be changed by reconfiguring:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows operating system
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : POSIX environment under windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
If you are running on Linux, make *certain* that you have
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y *before* the first make or you will create a
corrupt configuration that may not be easy to recover from. See
the warning in the section "Information Common to All Configurations"
for further information.
3. This configuration currently has Cortex-A address environments selected.
With this option, the MMU is used to create a custom address environment
for each ELF program (effectively making them processes). This option
can be disabled in which case the ELF programs will simply execute out
normal memory allocated from the heap. To disable this feature:
System Type -> Architecture Options
CONFIG_ARCH_ADDRENV=n : Disable address environment support
System Type -> Heap Configuration
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_RESERVE=n : Don't reserve any page cache memory
CONFIG_SAMA5_DDRCS_PGHEAP=n : Don't try to set up the page allocator
Memory Management
CONFIG_GRAN=n : Disable the granule allocator
CONFIG_MM_PGALLOC=n : Disable the page allocator
4. A system call interface is enabled and the ELF test programs interface with the base RTOS code system calls. This eliminates the need for symbol tables to link with the base RTOS (symbol tables are still used, however, to interface with the common C library instaniation). Relevant configuration settings:
RTOS Features -> System call support
CONFIG_LIB_SYSCALL=y : Enable system call support
CONFIG_SYS_NNEST=2 : Max number of nested system calls
CONFIG_SYS_RESERVED=1 : SYStem call 0 is reserved on this platform
Application Configurations -> Examples -> ELF Loader Example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ELF_SYSCALL=y : Link apps with the SYStem call library
STATUS:
2014-8-24: This configuration works with the address environment
and system call options disabled.
2014-8-28: Now this option works well well with address environments
enabled. There is a potential issue with the use of
task_create() as it is used in the ELF test, but the code
seems to survive it. See:
http://www.nuttx.org/doku.php?id=wiki:nxinternal:memconfigs#task_create
2014-8-29: System call interface verified.
2014-9-16: Reverified after fixing changes for the knsh configuration
that broke this on. All seems to be well now.
knsh:
An NSH configuration used to test the SAMA5D kenel build configuration.
More to come... this is still a work in progress as of this writing.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the the USART3 for the serial console
which is available at the "DBGU" RS-232 connector (J24). That
is easily changed by reconfiguring to (1) enable a different
serial peripheral, and (2) selecting that serial peripheral as
the console device.
2. By default, this configuration is set up to build on Windows
under either a Cygwin or MSYS environment using a recent, Windows-
native, generic ARM EABI GCC toolchain (such as the CodeSourcery
toolchain). Both the build environment and the toolchain
selection can easily be changed by reconfiguring:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows operating system
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : POSIX environment under windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
If you are running on Linux, make *certain* that you have
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y *before* the first make or you will create a
corrupt configuration that may not be easy to recover from. See
the warning in the section "Information Common to All Configurations"
for further information.
3. Some key setup configuration values for this configuration:
Build Setup -> Build Configuration -> Memory Organization
CONFIG_BUILD_KERNEL=y : Kernel build enabled
RTOS Features -> Tasks and Scheduling
CONFIG_INIT_FILEPATH=y : Start-up is via an ELF file
CONFIG_USER_INITPATH="/bin/init" : The location of the startup
CONFIG_SCHED_HAVE_PARENT=y : Needed to handle task exit
RTOS Features -> System call support
CONFIG_SYS_RESERVED=5 : More reserved SYSCALLs
RTOS Features -> RTOS hooks
CONFIG_SCHED_ONEXIT=y : Needed to handle task exit
CONFIG_SCHED_ONEXIT_MAX=2
Memory Management
CONFIG_MM_KERNEL_HEAP=y : Enable a kernel heap
CONFIG_MM_KERNEL_HEAPSIZE=8192 : (temporary.. will change)
4. By default, this configuration is setup to boot from an SD card.
Unfortunately, there some issues when using the SD card that prevent
this from working properly (see STATUS below). And alternative is to
use a built-in ROMFS file system that does not suffer from the
(assumed) HSMCI bug.
So why isn't this the default configuration? Because it does not
build out-of-the-box. You have to take special steps in the build
process as described below.
Assuming that you will want to reconfigure to use the ROMFS (rather than debugging HSCMI), you will need to disable all of these settings:
System Type->ATSAMA5 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_SAMA5_HSMCI0=n : Disable HSMCI0 support
CONFIG_SAMA5_XDMAC0=n : XDMAC0 is no longer needed
System Type
CONFIG_SAMA5_PIO_IRQ=n : PIO interrupts are no longer needed
Device Drivers -> MMC/SD Driver Support
CONFIG_MMCSD=n : Disable MMC/SD support
File System
CONFIG_FS_FAT=n : FAT file system no longer needed
Board Selection
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_MOUNT=y : Don't mount HSMCI0 at boot
And then enable these features in order to use the ROMFS boot file
system:
File System
CONFIG_FS_ROMFS=y : Enable the ROMFS file system
Board Selection
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_ROMFS_MOUNT=y : Mount the ROMFS file system at boot
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_ROMFS_MOUNT_MOUNTPOINT="/bin"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_ROMFS_ROMDISK_DEVNAME="/dev/ram0"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_ROMFS_ROMDISK_MINOR=0
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_ROMFS_ROMDISK_SECTSIZE=512
Then you will need to follow some special build instructions below
in order to build and install the ROMFS file system image.
UPDATE: The ROMFS configuration is pre-configured in the the
file nuttx/configs/sama5d4-ek/knsh/defconfig.ROMFS
5. Board initialization is performed performed before the application
is started:
RTOS Features -> RTOS Hooks
CONFIG_BOARD_INITITIALIZE=y
In the special ROMFS boot configuration, you need to do nothing
additional: The board initialization will mount the ROMFS file
system at boot time.
In the default configuration, however, the board initialization
will instead mount the FAT filesystem on an SD card inserted in
the HSMCI0 slot (full size). The SAMA4D4-EK provides two SD
memory card slots: (1) a full size SD card slot (J10), and (2) a
microSD memory card slot (J11). The full size SD card slot connects
via HSMCI0; the microSD connects vi HSMCI1. See the relevant
configuration settings above in the paragraph entitled "HSMCI Card
Slots" above.
The SD card is mounted at /bin by this board initialization logic.
NuttX will boot from the SD card so there are some special operational
requirements to use this configuration:
a. The SD card must contain a NuttX executable called 'init'
b. The SD card must be in the HSCMCI slot when NuttX boots and must
not be removed while NuttX is running.
The NuttX automounter is *not* enabled. It cannot be used it would
mount the boot file system with a delay. In this configuration. The
file system must be mounted immediately at boot up. To accomplish
this, the board logic supports these special configurations:
Board Selection ->
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_AMOUNT=y
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_MOUNT_BLKDEV="/dev/mmcsd0"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_MOUNT_FSTYPE="vfat"
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_HSMCI0_MOUNT_MOUNTPOINT="/bin"
6a. General build directions (boot from SD card):
$ cd nuttx/tools : Go to the tools sub-directory
$ ./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/kernel : Establish this configuration
$ cd .. : Back to the NuttX build directory
: Edit setenv.sh to use the correct path
$ . ./setenv.sh : Set up the PATH variable
$ make : Build the kerne with a dummy ROMFS image
: This should create the nuttx ELF
$ make export : Create the kernel export package
: You should have a file like
: nuttx-export-*.zip
$ cd apps/ : Go to the apps/ directory
$ tools/mkimport.sh -x <zip-file> : Use the full path to nuttx-export-*.zip
$ make import : This will build the file system.
You will then need to copy the files from apps/bin to an SD card to
create the the bootable SD card.
6b. General build directions (boot from ROMFS image):
$ cd nuttx/tools : Go to the tools sub-directory
$ ./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/kernel : Establish this configuration
$ cd .. : Back to the NuttX build directory
: Edit setenv.sh to use the correct path
$ . ./setenv.sh : Set up the PATH variable
$ touch configs/sama5d4-ek/include/boot_romfsimg.h
$ make : Build the kernel with a dummy ROMFS image
: This should create the nuttx ELF
$ make export : Create the kernel export package
: You should have a file like
: nuttx-export-*.zip
$ cd apps/ : Go to the apps/ directory
$ tools/mkimport.sh -x <zip-file> : Use the full path to nuttx-export-*.zip
$ make import : This will build the file system
$ tools/mkromfsimg.sh : Create the real ROMFS image
$ mv boot_romfsimg.h ../nuttx/configs/sama5d4-ek/include/boot_romfsimg.h
$ cd nuttx/ : Rebuild the system with the correct
$ make clean_context all : ROMFS file system
STATUS:
2014-9-4: The kernel works up to the point where the nsh 'init'
is started from the file system then fails. This is good,
however, because I do not yet have the file system in place yet.
2014-9-8: I am seeing HSMCI read() failures while loading the ELF image
from the SD card. This seems odd since I have never seen other read()
failures with HSMCI (and, hence, this may be some issue unique to this
configuration). In any a event, this has stopped testing for the
moment.
Also, the mount() in configs/sama5d4x-ek/src/sam_bringup.c will fail
unless you add a delay between the HSMCI initialization and the mount.
No idea why (and there they is now delay in the baseline code... one
has to be added).
Update: I don't believe that this HSMCI error occurs if file system
debug output is enabled.
2014-9-11: Everything seems to be working quite nicely witn the ROMFS
file system. A considerable amount of testing has been done and
there are no known defects as of this writing.
2014-9-16: After some substantial effort, I think I may have resolved
the last of the mainstream bugs that prevented from executing other
user processes from a user processes. Long story but I am glad to
haave that done.
nsh:
This configuration directory provide the NuttShell (NSH). This is a
very simple NSH configuration upon which you can build further
functionality.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the the USART3 for the serial console
which is available at the "DBGU" RS-232 connector (J24). That
is easily changed by reconfiguring to (1) enable a different
serial peripheral, and (2) selecting that serial peripheral as
the console device.
2. This configuration was verified using the SAMA5D4-MB, Rev C. board.
There may be some differences in released SAMA5D4-EK board. Also,
this configuration assumes that you have the TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen
attached. If you do not, you should disable the LCD and touchscreen
drivers as described above under "TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen" and also
below.
3. By default, this configuration is set up to build on Windows
under either a Cygwin or MSYS environment using a recent, Windows-
native, generic ARM EABI GCC toolchain (such as the CodeSourcery
toolchain). Both the build environment and the toolchain
selection can easily be changed by reconfiguring:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows operating system
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : POSIX environment under windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
If you are running on Linux, make *certain* that you have
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y *before* the first make or you will create a
corrupt configuration that may not be easy to recover from. See
the warning in the section "Information Common to All Configurations"
for further information.
4. This configuration supports logging of debug output to a circular
buffer in RAM. This feature is discussed fully in this Wiki page:
http://nuttx.org/doku.php?id=wiki:howtos:syslog . Relevant
configuration settings are summarized below:
File System:
CONFIG_SYSLOG_ENABLE=n : (Output debug info unconditionally)
CONFIG_SYSLOG=y : Enables the System Logging feature.
Device Drivers:
CONFIG_RAMLOG=y : Enable the RAM-based logging feature.
CONFIG_RAMLOG_CONSOLE=n : (We don't use the RAMLOG console)
CONFIG_RAMLOG_SYSLOG=y : This enables the RAM-based logger as the
system logger.
CONFIG_RAMLOG_NONBLOCKING=y : Needs to be non-blocking for dmesg
CONFIG_RAMLOG_BUFSIZE=16384 : Buffer size is 16KiB
NOTE: This RAMLOG feature is really only of value if debug output
is enabled. But, by default, no debug output is disabled in this
configuration. Therefore, there is no logic that will add anything
to the RAM buffer. This feature is configured and in place only
to support any future debugging needs that you may have.
If you don't plan on using the debug features, then by all means
disable this feature and save 16KiB of RAM!
NOTE: There is an issue with capturing data in the RAMLOG: If
the system crashes, all of the crash dump information will into
the RAMLOG and you will be unable to access it! You can tell that
the system has crashed because (a) it will be unresponsive and (b)
the RED LED will be blinking at about 2Hz.
That is another good reason to disable the RAMLOG!
5. This configuration executes out of SDRAM flash and is loaded into
SDRAM from NAND, Serial DataFlash, SD card or from a TFTPC sever via
U-Boot, BareBox, or the DRAMBOOT configuration described above. Data
also is positioned in SDRAM.
The load address is different for the DRAMBOOT program and the Linux
bootloaders. This can easily be reconfigured, however:
CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_DRAM_BOOT=y
See the section above entitled "Creating and Using DRAMBOOT" above
for more information. Here is a summary of the steps that I used
to boot the NSH configuration:
a. Create the DRAMBOOT program as described above. It should be
configured with CONFIG_SAMA5D4EK_DRAM_START=y so that DRAMBOOT
will immediately start the program. You may not want to do
this is your prefer to break in with GDB.
b. Write the DRAMBOOT program binary (nuttx.bin) to a microSD
card as "boot.bin". Insert the microSD card into the boar;
The ROM Booloader should now boot DRAMBOOT on reset and you
should see this message:
Send Intel HEX file now
c. Build the NSH version of NuttX. Send the Intel HEX of NSH
at the prompt. After the file is received, NSH should start
automatically.
At times the past, have have tested with nuttx.bin on an SD card and
booting with U-Boot. These are the commands that I used to boot NuttX
from the SD card:
U-Boot> fatload mmc 0 0x20008000 nuttx.bin
U-Boot> go 0x20008040
6. Board LEDs and buttons are supported as described under "Buttons and
LEDs". The interrupt button test is also enabled as an NSH built-in
commands. To run this test, you simply inter the command:
nsh>buttons [npresses]
The interrupt button test will log button press information to the
syslog. Since the RAMLOG is enabled, the SYSLOG output will be
captured to a circular buffer in ram and may be examined using the
NSH dmesg command:
nsh> buttons 2
nsh> dmesg
maxbuttons: 2
Attached handler at 200106f0 to button 0 [PB_USER], oldhandler:0
IRQ:81 Button 0:PB_USER SET:01:
PB_USER depressed
IRQ:81 Button 0:PB_USER SET:00:
PB_USER released
IRQ:81 Button 0:PB_USER SET:01:
PB_USER depressed
IRQ:81 Button 0:PB_USER SET:00:
PB_USER released
7. This configuration supports /dev/null, /dev/zero, and /dev/random.
CONFIG_DEV_NULL=y : Enables /dev/null
CONFIG_DEV_ZERO=y : Enabled /dev/zero
Support for /dev/random is implemented using the SAMA5D4's True
Random Number Generator (TRNG). See the section above entitled
"TRNG and /dev/random" for information about configuring /dev/random.
CONFIG_SAMA5_TRNG=y : Enables the TRNG peripheral
CONFIG_DEV_RANDOM=y : Enables /dev/random
8. This configuration has support for NSH built-in applications enabled.
Two built-in applications are included by default:
a. The I2C Tool. See the section above entitled "I2C Tool" and the
note with regard to I2C below.
b. The interrupting button test as described above in these notes.
c. The touchscreen test program as described above under "TM7000
LCD/Touchscreen" and also below in this notes.
d. An LCD/graphics test program. See the section above entitle
"TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen" and also below in this notes.
e. The NxPlayer command line media player. This is a work in
progress see the "Audio Support" section above and additional
notes below.
9. This configuration has support for the FAT, ROMFS, and PROCFS file
systems built in.
The FAT file system includes long file name support. Please be aware
that Microsoft claims patents against the long file name support (see
more discussion in the top-level COPYING file).
CONFIG_FS_FAT=y : Enables the FAT file system
CONFIG_FAT_LCNAMES=y : Enable lower case 8.3 file names
CONFIG_FAT_LFN=y : Enables long file name support
CONFIG_FAT_MAXFNAME=32 : Arbitrarily limits the size of a path
segment name to 32 bytes
The ROMFS file system is enabled simply with:
CONFIG_FS_ROMFS=y : Enable ROMFS file system
The ROMFS file system is enabled simply with:
CONFIG_FS_PROCFS=y : Enable PROCFS file system
10. An NSH start-up script is provided by the ROMFS file system. The ROMFS
file system is mounted at /etc and provides:
|- dev/
| |- ...
| `- ram0 : ROMFS block driver
`- etc/
`- init.d/
`- rcS : Start-up script
(There will, of course, be other devices under /dev including /dev/console,
/dev/null, /dev/zero, /dev/random, etc.).
Relevant configuration options include:
CONFIG_NSH_ROMFSETC=y : Enable mounting at of startup file system
CONFIG_NSH_ROMFSMOUNTPT="/etc" : Mount at /etc
CONFIG_NSH_ROMFSDEVNO=0 : Device is /dev/ram0
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHROMFS=y : ROMFS image is at
configs/sama5d4-ek/include/nsh_romfsimg.h
The content of /etc/init.d/rcS can be see in the file rcS.template that
can be found at: configs/sama5d4-ek/include/rcS.template:
# Mount the procfs file system at /proc
mount -f procfs /proc
echo "rcS: Mounted /proc"
# Create a RAMDISK at /dev/ram1, size 0.5MiB, format it with a FAT
# file system and mount it at /tmp
mkrd -m 1 -s 512 1024
mkfatfs /dev/ram1
mount -t vfat /dev/ram1 /tmp
echo "rcS: Mounted /tmp"
The above commands will mount the procfs file system at /proc and a
RAM disk at /tmp.
The second group of commands will: (1) Create a RAM disk block device
at /dev/ram1 (mkrd). The RAM disk will take 0.4MiB of memory (512 x
1024). Then it will then: (2) create a FAT file system on the ram
disk (mkfatfs) and (3) mount it at /tmp (mount).
So after NSH starts and runs the rcS script, we will have:
|- dev/
| |- ...
| `- ram0 : ROMFS block driver
| `- ram1 : RAM disk block driver
|- etc/
| `- init.d/
| `- rcS : Start-up script
|- proc/
| |- 0/ : Information about Task ID 0
| | |- cmdline : Command line used to start the task
| | |- stack : Stack allocation
| | |- status : Current task status
| | `- group/ : Information about the task group
| | |- fd : File descriptors open in the group
| | `- status : Status of the group
| |- 1/ : Information about Task ID 1
| | `- ... : Same psuedo-directories as for Task ID 0
| |- ... : ...
| |- n/ : Information about Task ID n
| | `- ... : Same psuedo-directories as for Task ID 0
| |- uptime : Processor uptime
`- tmp/
The /tmp directory can them be used for and scratch purpose. The
pseudo-files in the proc/ directory can be used to query properties
of NuttX. As examples:
nsh> cat /proc/1/stack
StackBase: 0x2003b1e8
StackSize: 2044
nsh> cat /proc/uptime
31.89
nsh> cat /proc/1/status
Name: work
Type: Kernel thread
State: Signal wait
Priority: 192
Scheduler: SCHED_FIFO
SigMask: 00000000
nsh> cat /proc/1/cmdline
work
nsh> cat /proc/1/group/status
Flags: 0x00
Members: 1
nsh> cat /proc/1/group/fd
FD POS OFLAGS
0 0 0003
1 0 0003
2 0 0003
SD RF TYP FLAGS
11. The Real Time Clock/Calendar (RTC) is enabled in this configuration.
See the section entitled "RTC" above for detailed configuration
settings.
The RTC alarm is not enabled by default since there is nothing in
this configuration that uses it. The alarm can easily be enabled,
however, as described in the "RTC" section.
The time value from the RTC will be used as the NuttX system time
in all timestamp operations. You may use the NSH 'date' command
to set or view the RTC as described above in the "RTC" section.
NOTE: If you want the RTC to preserve time over power cycles, you
will need to install a battery in the battery holder (J12) and close
the jumper, JP13.
12. Support for HSMCI0 is built-in by default. The SAMA4D4-EK provides
two SD memory card slots: (1) a full size SD card slot (J10), and
(2) a microSD memory card slot (J11). The full size SD card slot
connects via HSMCI0; the microSD connects vi HSMCI1. Support for
the microSD slot could also be enabled with the settings provided
in the paragraph entitled "HSMCI Card Slots" above.
NOTE: For now I am boot off the microSD slot so, unless are booting
in a different manner, this HSMCI1 slot may not be useful to you
anyway.
The auto-mounter is also enabled. See the section above entitled
"Auto-Mounter".
13. Networking is supported via EMAC0. See the "Networking" section
above for detailed configuration settings. DHCP is not used in
this configuration; rather, a hard-coded IP address of 10.0.0.2 is
used with a netmask of 255.255.255.0. The host is assumed to be
10.0.0.1 in places. You can reconfigure to enabled DHCPC or to
change these addresses as you see fit.
See also the "kludge" for EMAC that is documented in the To-Do list
at the end of this README file.
The configuration option CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT_THREAD is enabled so
that NSH network bring-up asynchronously and in parallel on a
separate thread. This eliminates the (visible) networking bring-up
delay. This networking initialization feature by itself has
some limitations:
- If no network is connected, the network bring-up will fail and
the network initialization thread will simply exit. There are no
retries and no mechanism to know if the network initialization was
successful.
- Furthermore, there is no support for detecting loss of the network
connection and recovery of networking when the connection is restored.
Both of these shortcomings can be eliminated by enabling the network
monitor as described above in the "Network Monitor" paragraph.
14. I2C Tool. This configuration enables TWI0 (only) as an I2C master
device. This configuration also supports the I2C tool at
apps/system/i2c that can be used to peek and poke I2C devices on the
TIW0 bus. See the discussion above under "I2C Tool" for detailed
configuration settings.
15. Support the USB low-, high- and full-speed OHCI host driver is enabled
enabled with the NuttX configuration file as described in the section
above entitled "USB High-Speed Host". Only port B and port C, the
larger "Type A" connectors, are enabled; port A (the smaller OTG
connector) is reserved for future use with USB device (but could also
be configured as a USB host port if desired).
Support for Mass Storage Class and USB (Boot) Keyboard class is also
enabled. The keyboard class was useful for verifying that low-speed
devices can connect successfully, but is otherwise not used by this
configuration. Feel free to disable it if you like:
CONFIG_USBHOST_HIDKBD=n
You could also replace the NSH stdin device to take input from a USB
keyboard with:
CONFIG_NSH_USBKBD=y
CONFIG_NSH_USBKBD_DEVNAME="/dev/kbda"
The keyboard is currently configured to poll at 80 MSec intervals.
This is controlled by:
CONFIG_HIDKBD_POLLUSEC=80000
which can be reduced if better keyboard response is required.
NOTE: You will not have access to the RAMLOG via the NSH dmseg command
if the USB keyboard is selected. You can still access NSH via Telnet
or you may want to disable the RAMLOG so that debug information comes
out on the console.
16. Support the USB high-speed USB device driver (UDPHS) is not enabled by
default but could be enabled by changing the NuttX configuration file as
described above in the section entitled "USB High-Speed Device."
17. Support for the maXTouch MXT768E touchscreen driver on the TM7000
LCD/Touchscreen module is enabled by default. See the section above
entitled "TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen" for detailed configuration information.
You will probably want to disable this option if you are not using the
TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen.
The Touchscreen test program is also built in. This test program can
be found in the source tree at apps/examples/touchscreen. Usage is
like:
nsh> tc [<number-of-touches>]
18. Support for the TM7000 LCD is enabled by default. See the section above
entitled "TM7000 LCD/Touchscreen" for detailed configuration information.
You will probably want to disable this option if you are not using the
TM7000 LCD.
There are several LCD test programs available. One is built into this
configuration: apps/examples/nx. The NX example is a simple test
using the NuttX graphics system (NX). This test case focuses on general
window controls, movement, mouse and keyboard input. It requires no
user interaction.
The test is executed by simply typing:
nsh> nx
There are several simple graphics examples under apps/examples/ that
could be configured to verify LCD/graphics operation:
a. nxhello. Just displays "Hello, World!" at the center of the
display.
b. nximage. Displays the NuttX logo in the center of the display.
c. nxlines. Shows many fat lines. This generally looks like a
"clock" with a cicle and a rotating line in the center.
d. nxtext. This demonstrates scrolling text with pop-up windows on
top of the test. The pop-up windows come and go without
corrupting the scrolling text.
See apps/examples/README.txt for information about configuring these
examples.
19. NxPlayer
This configuration has the command line NxPlayer enabled. Support
for the WM8904 CODEC is built in.
NOTE: The WM8904 driver should not be included in the
configuration if you are using the Rev C version of the board
(there were some I2C communication issues for the WM8904 interface
on Rev C of the board):
CONFIG_SYSTEM_NXPLAYER=n
This configuration depends on media files in the default mountpoint
at /mnt/sdard. You will need to mount the media before running
NxPlayer, Here are the general steps to play a file:
a. You will need an (full size) SD card containing the .WAV files
that you want to play (.WAV is only format supported as of this
writing). That SD card should be inserted in the HSMCI0 media
slot A (best done before powering up).
b. If the NuttX auto-mounter is enabled and properly configured,
then the FAT file system appear at /mnt/sdcard. If the auto-
mounter is not enabled, then here are the steps to manually
mount the FAT file system:
Then from NSH prompt, you need to mount the media volume like:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard
NOTE: The auto-mounter is enabled by default in this
configuration.
c. Then you can run the media player like:
nsh> nxplayer
nxplayer> device pcm0
nxplayer> play <filename>
STATUS: Not yet functional. See the To-Do list at the bottom of this
README file.
20. The SAMA5D4-EK includes for an AT25 serial DataFlash. That support is
NOT enabled in this configuration. Support for that serial FLASH could
be enabled by modifying the NuttX configuration as described above in
the paragraph entitled "AT25 Serial FLASH".
21. This example can be configured to exercise the watchdog timer test
(apps/examples/watchdog). See the detailed configuration settings in
the section entitled "Watchdog Timer" above.
STATUS:
See the To-Do list below
2014-8-30: Retesting today I am seeing a strange behavior: Serial
output is coming out in chunks with delays between the chunks. It
appears that something is not good in the serial port configuration.
I see no such chunky behavior in, for example, graphics output.
2014-9-17: I do not see that chunked output behavior. However, I do
notice that the serial output is sluggish if there is not network
cable connected. When the network connected the serial output is
responsive: Something must be keeping the system too busy when
there is not network (probably the network monitor).
nxwm:
This is a special configuration setup for the NxWM window manager
UnitTest. It integrates support for both the SAMA5 LCDC and the
SAMA5 ADC touchscreen controller and provides a more advance
graphics demo. It provides an interactive windowing experience.
NOTES:
1. The NxWM window manager is a tiny window manager tailored for use
with smaller LCDs but which is show here on the larger, SAMA5D4-EK
TM7000 LCD. It supports a toolchain, a start window, and
multiple application windows. However, to make the best use of
the visible LCD space, only one application window is visible at
at time.
The NxWM window manager can be found here:
nuttx-git/NxWidgets/nxwm
The NxWM unit test can be found at:
nuttx-git/NxWidgets/UnitTests/nxwm
Documentation for installing the NxWM unit test can be found here:
nuttx-git/NxWidgets/UnitTests/README.txt
2. This configuration is set up generally like the nsh configuration
except that:
- It boots into a graphic, window manage environment instead of
the serial console command line.
- The console command line is still available within NxConsole
windows.
- Obviously, the nx and touchscreen built in applications cannot
be supported.
Refer to the NOTES for the nsh configuration. Those also apply
for the nxwm configuration (other than the differences noted
above).
3. Here is the quick summary of the build steps. These steps assume
that you have the entire NuttX GIT in some directory ~/nuttx-git.
You may have these components installed elsewhere. In that case, you
will need to adjust all of the paths in the following accordingly:
a. Install the nxwm configuration
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/nuttx/tools
$ ./configure.sh sama5d4-ek/nxwm
b. Make the build context (only)
$ cd ..
$ . ./setenv.sh
$ make context
...
NOTE: the use of the setenv.sh file is optional. All that it
will do is to adjust your PATH variable so that the build system
can find your tools. If you use it, you will most likely need to
modify the script so that it has the correct path to your tool
binary directory.
c. Install the nxwm unit test
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets
$ tools/install.sh ~/nuttx-git/apps nxwm
Creating symbolic link
- To ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets/UnitTests/nxwm
- At ~/nuttx-git/apps/external
d. Build the NxWidgets library
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets/libnxwidgets
$ make TOPDIR=~/nuttx-git/nuttx
...
e. Build the NxWM library
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets/nxwm
$ make TOPDIR=~/nuttx-git/nuttx
...
f. Built NuttX with the installed unit test as the application
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/nuttx
$ make
4. NSH Console Access.
This configuration boots directly into a graphic, window manage
environment. There is no serial console. Some initial stdout
information will go to the USART3 serial output, but otherwise
the serial port will be silent.
Access to the NSH console is available in two ways:
a. The NxWM provides a graphics-based terminals (called NxConsoles);
The console command line is still available within NxConsole
windows once NxWM is up and running. The console input (stdin) is
provided via a USB HID keyboard, but console output will go to the
NxConsole terminal. See below for more information about the USB
HID keyboard input,
| b. Telnet NSH sessions are still supported and this is, in general,
the convenient way to access the shell (and RAMLOG).
As with the NSH configuration, debug output will still go to the
circular RAMLOG buffer but cannot be accessed from a serial console.
Instead, you will need use the dmesg command from an NxConsole or
from a Telnet session to see the debug output
5. USB HID Keyboard Input
USB keyboard support is enabled in the default configuration, but
can be disabled:
CONFIG_USBHOST_HIDKBD=y
Not all keyboards may be supported; only "boot" keyboards will be
recognized.
The USB keyboard is configured to replace the NSH stdin device some
that NSH will take input from the USB keyboard. This has to be
done a little differently for the case of NxWM::CNxConsoles than
in the standard NSH configuration. Here the relevant configuration
options are:
CONFIG_NXWM_KEYBOARD_USBHOST=y
CONFIG_NXWM_KEYBOARD_DEVPATH="/dev/kbda"
NSH will then automatically start when the NxConsole is started:
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-7.3
nsh>
When the NxConsole comes up, it will attempt to use /dev/kbda device
for input. Obviously, you cannot enter text if there is no keyboard
but otherwise you will not see any indication whether a keyboard is
connected or not.
If the keyboard is detached, you not be able to enter text until the
keyboard is reconnected. Again, there is no other special indication
of the keyboard state.
The keyboard is currently configured to poll at 80 MSec intervals.
That might not be fast enough for you if you are a fast typist. This
polling rate is controlled by:
CONFIG_HIDKBD_POLLUSEC=80000
which can be reduced if better keyboard response is required.
6. Media Player
This configuration has the media player application enabled. Support
for the WM8904 CODEC is built in.
NOTE: The WM8904 driver should not be included in the
configuration if you are using the Rev C version of the board
(there were some I2C communication issues for the WM8904 interface
on Rev C of the board). You may either (1) Disable audio support
and disable the Media Player GUI, or (2) configure the "NULL" audio
device so that the GUI will function correctly (with no sound,
of course).
This configuration depends on media files in the default mountpoint
at /mnt/sdard (configurable). If you see the message "Media volume
not mounted" in the media player text box, then you will need to
mount the media volume:
a. You will need an (full size) SD card containing the .WAV files
that you want to play (.WAV is only format supported as of this
writing). That SD card should be inserted in the HSMCI0 media
slot A (best done before powering up).
b. If the NuttX auto-mounter is enabled and properly configured,
then the FAT file system appear at /mnt/sdcard. If the auto-
mounter is not enabled, then you need to perform the following
steps to manually mount the FAT file system:
Then from NSH prompt, you need to mount the media volume like:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard
I usually do this via Telnet from the host PC. Here is a
complete host Telnet session:
$ telnet 10.0.0.2
Trying 10.0.0.2...
Connected to 10.0.0.2.
Escape character is '^]'.
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-7.3
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard
nsh> exit
Connection closed by foreign host.
NOTE: The auto-mounter is enabled by default in this
configuration.
c. Then if you close the old media player window and bring up a
new one, you should see the .WAV files on the SD card in the lis
box.
STATUS: Despite the comments above, WM8904 support has *NOT* yet
been enabled in this configuration. This is because it is not yet
working in the nxwm configuration. See the To-Do list at the
bottom of this README file. The current nxwm configuration is still
set up for the Rev C board using the "NULL" audio device.
Things still to do:
a. Currently the list box is not scrollable. So you will be
limited to the number .WAV files that will fit in the existing
list box (a scrollable list box class exists, but has not been
integrated into the media play demo).
b. Although the lower level NxPlayer does support them, there are
no controls at the GUI for balance or tone/equalization.
c. There is no visual indication of play status or end of playing.
STATUS:
See the To-Do list below
ramtest:
This is a stripped down version of NSH that runs out of
internal SRAM. It configures SDRAM and supports only the RAM test
at apps/examples/ramtest. This configuration is useful for
bringing up SDRAM.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the the USART3 for the serial console
which is available at the "DBGU" RS-232 connector (J24). That
is easily changed by reconfiguring to (1) enable a different
serial peripheral, and (2) selecting that serial peripheral as
the console device.
2. By default, this configuration is set up to build on Windows
under either a Cygwin or MSYS environment using a recent, Windows-
native, generic ARM EABI GCC toolchain (such as the CodeSourcery
toolchain). Both the build environment and the toolchain
selection can easily be changed by reconfiguring:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows operating system
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : POSIX environment under windows
CONFIG_ARMV7A_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
If you are running on Linux, make *certain* that you have
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y *before* the first make or you will create a
corrupt configuration that may not be easy to recover from. See
the warning in the section "Information Common to All Configurations"
for further information.
3. This configuration executes out of internal SRAM flash and is
loaded into SRAM by the boot ROM SDRAM from NAND, Serial
DataFlash, SD card or from a TFTPC sever via the Boot ROM.
Data also is positioned in SRAM.
Here are the steps that I use to execute this program in SRAM
using only the ROM Bootloader:
a) Hold the DIS_BOOT button and
b) With the DIS_BOOT button pressed, power cycle the board. A
reset does not seem to be sufficient.
c) The serial should show RomBOOT in a terminal window (at 115200
8N1) and nothing more.
d) Press ENTER in the terminal window a few times to enable JTAG.
e) Start the Segger GDB server. It should successfully connect to
the board via JTAG (if JTAG was correctly enabled in step d)).
f) Start GDB, connect, to the GDB server, load NuttX, and debug.
gdb> target remote localhost:2331
gdb> mon halt (don't do mon reset)
gdb> load nuttx
gdb> mon reg pc (make sure that the PC is 0x200040
gdb> ... and debug ...
To-Do List
==========
1) Neither USB OHCI nor EHCI support Isochronous endpoints. Interrupt
endpoint support in the EHCI driver is untested (but works in similar
EHCI drivers).
2) HSCMI. CONFIG_MMCSD_MULTIBLOCK_DISABLE=y is set to disable multi-block
transfers because of some issues that I saw during testing. The is very
low priority to me but might be important to you if you are need very
high performance SD card accesses.
3) There is a kludge in place in the Ethernet code to work around a problem
that I see. The problem that I see is as follows:
a. To send packets, the software keeps a queue of TX descriptors in
memory.
b. When a packet is ready to be sent, the software clears bit 31 of a
status word in the descriptor meaning that the descriptor now
"belongs" to the hardware.
c. The hardware sets bit 31 in memory when the transfer completes.
The problem that I see is that:
d. Occasionally bit 31 of the status word is not cleared even though
the Ethernet packet was successfully sent.
Since the software does not see bit 31 set, it seems like the transfer
did not complete and the Ethernet locks up.
The workaround/kludge that is in place makes this assumption: If an
Ethernet transfer complete interrupt is received, then at least one
packet must have completed. In this case, the software ignores
checking the USED bit for one packet.
With this kludge in place, the driver appears to work fine. However,
there is a danger to what I have done: If a spurious interrupt
occurs, than the USED bit would not be set and the transfer would be
lost.
4) Some drivers may require some adjustments if you intend to run from SDRAM.
That is because in this case macros like BOARD_MCK_FREQUENCY are not constants
but are instead function calls: The MCK clock frequency is not known in
advance but instead has to be calculated from the bootloader PLL configuration.
As of this writing, all drivers have been converted to run from SDRAM except
for the PWM and the Timer/Counter drivers. These drivers use the
BOARD_MCK_FREQUENCY definition in more complex ways and will require some
minor redesign and re-testing before they can be available.
5) The WM8904 is not usable on the Rev C version of the board due to some I2C
related issues. These issues seem to be resolved on the Rev E version of
the board. However, the WM8904 is still not function:
a) With a logic analyzer I can see that the I2C writes to the WM8904
device look good. This is the same setup that was used in the working
SAMA5D3x-EK nxplayer configuration and so should be correct (you cannot
even get this far on the Rev C board).
b) I2C readback of the WM8904 registers (via CONFIG_WM8904_REGDUMP) does
not, however, show proper registers contents. Groups of extra bits
(apparently 0x01fd) appear to be set in many registers on reading.
This is assumed to be some interference from some other device on the
I2C bus rather that errors in writing. This assumption is credible
since the bad bits appear immediately after resetting the WM8904 and
before anything has been written to it.
c) Also with the logic analyzer, I can that the 12MHz MCLK input is
being provided to the WM8904.
d) However, not bit clock (BLCK) is being generated by the WM8904. This
should appear on both AUDIO_TK0_PB27 and AUDIO_RK0_PB28, but I see
nothing.
e) With no BCLK, I would expect the SSC0 DMA transfers to hang... they do
not. No errors of any kind are detected by the firmware; it believes
that it is successfully playing .WAV files. This leads to believe
that there may be some schematic error.
e) There is, of course, no audio output.
You can replace the WM8904 with the "NULL" audio driver by:
CONFIG_AUDIO_WM8904=n : Disable the WM8904
CONFIG_SAMA5_SSC0=n : Disable SSC0
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL=y : Enable the NULL audio device
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_BUFFER_SIZE=8192
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_MSG_PRIO=1
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_NUM_BUFFERS=4
CONFIG_AUDIO_NULL_WORKER_STACKSIZE=768
CONFIG_AUDIO_NUM_BUFFERS=2
