AM263P4-Q1: .appimage .appimage_xip Not Deleted during Clean

Part Number: AM263P4-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi Team,

My customer has a question regarding the Build and Clean process. 

After building the ipc_rpmsg_echo example and cleaning, the .appimage and .appimage_xip files are not deleted during the clean. Is there any way to add these files to the clean process? 

They are worried that when an error occurs during build/rebuild, they will mistake these old build files for correctly building.

Best regards,

Mari Tsunoda

  • Hi Mari Tsunoda,

    Generally the "clean" makefile job should take care of deleting the rprc, mcelf, appimage, appimage_xip, rprc_xip etc, but in case of CCS builds I observed only the syscfg auto-generated files are getting cleaned.

    For now the customer can do it from the command line builds which works fine.

    For example, to build the IPC RP MSG systems project from command line, they can use the following command:

    Fullscreen
    1
    gmake -sj -C examples/drivers/ipc/ipc_rpmsg_echo/am263px-cc/system_freertos_nortos/ all
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    To clean, they can use the following command:

    Fullscreen
    1
    gmake -sj -C examples/drivers/ipc/ipc_rpmsg_echo/am263px-cc/system_freertos_nortos/ clean
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    Meanwhile, I will inform the development team about this bug.
