Missing processor architecture for c6x DSP + ARM processors in CCS V5.5

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: 66AK2H12

Hello

I want to add C6X DSP + ARM processors in my existing CCSv 5.5 installation. So I rerun the CCS V5.5.0.00077 installation program. However, within the processor support tab showing below, I cannot find C6X DSP + ARM processors architecture. Can anyone explain of it?

Thanks

You are using a keystone device. The option you need is "C6000 Multi Core DSPs". This will install keystone support.

Hi Ki
The C6000 multi Core DSPs refers to DSPs like C6678. However, 66AK2H12, which is keystone II, contains 4 more ARM cores. How can I program the ARM by using keystone I compiler?

Thanks

"C6000 Multi Core DSPs" provides debug support for the 66AK2H12 (it provides debug support for C66 and A15).

As for the ARM compiler, GCC is generally used for the A15. Are you interested in bare metal or linux?

Thanks Ki
Because we want to use OpenMPI, I plan to use LInux.

In those cases, it is best to use the GCC version recommended by the distribution or SDK that you are using. We only offer ARM GCC for bare metal.
