Loading cores with CCS under linux

This question is answered

on Aug 07 2012 09:01 AM

Hello,

I am trying to use CCS under linux to load cores on Turbo Nyquist. I tried in 3 ways, unfortunately all failing, logs at bottom.

CCS version is 5.0.3.28, fully licensed, with mcsdk_02_00_03_15, apparently installed correctly with the needed libraries.

All the projects in the workspace may compile successfully.

Linux is an Ubuntu 12.04 distribution with kernel:

# uname -a

Linux 3.2.0-27-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 6 14:25:57 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any help/hint is appreciated.

Thanks

Regards

Stefano

Load cores using USB cable connection XDS100v2

All cores can be loaded but core2 which is failing with the error:

Error loading "../core2/Debug/Core2.out": File: /core2/Debug/Core2.out: a data verification error occurred, file load failed.

Checking map file the address provided on console log:

87930cd0 87930cd0 00014d80 00000000 rw-

87930cd0 87930cd0 00014d80 00000000 rw- .UIAlogger

87945a60 87945a60 00012d1f 0000e2e0 rwx

87945a60 87945a60 0000e2e0 0000e2e0 rwx .MySection

Does the failure indicate a problem on MySection or on UIAlogger?

Any suggestion about root cause?

Load cores using JTAG Emulator XDS560v2 STM

libtiptrace.so is not present in the installation directory: :/usr/local/CCSv5/ccsv5/ccs_base_5.0.3.00028/emulation/tpi

Why?

Could not start server: DebugServer.1: Can not initialize DebugServer.

Unable to load ../../../emulation/tpi/libtpitrace.so: /usr/local/CCSv5/ccsv5/ccs_base_5.0.3.00028/DebugServer/bin/linux_ia32/../../../emulation/tpi/libtpitrace.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Load cores using BlackHawk BH560v2

In this case it looks quite clear that driver for the my linux kernel is missing.

Is it available somewhere?

/usr/local/CCSv5/ccsv5/ccs_base_5.0.3.00028/emulation/Blackhawk/Bh560v2/linux.ko# ll

Hello,

Stefano Sartorelli

All cores can be loaded but core2 which is failing with the error:

Error loading "../core2/Debug/Core2.out": File: /core2/Debug/Core2.out: a data verification error occurred, file load failed.

Are you loading the same program on all the cores and only core 2 fails? Are you using any GEL startup files with your target configuration?

Note the gotcha regarding the emulator drivers when installing on Linux. Did you install as root?

Hi,

yes, I am using a DSS script to startup, but the problem was even loading manually with CCS and only with the core2 binary.

Anyhow I found out the root cause, I misconfigured is some way the target configuration moving from windows to linux.

About the other points:

1) libtpitrace.so is missing from CCS 5.0.3 but I saw it is present in 5.1.1.

I simply copied the library and it seems to work even with CCS 5.0.3, but is this a known problem? I could not find it documented

2) about BlackHawk BH560v2 drivers for the kernel 3.2.0-27, does anybody know if they are available?

I saw a note to look for upgrade on CCS 5.1.1 or greater, nothing on CCS 5.0.3

Many thanks!

Kind Regards

Stefano
