TMS320F28069: CLA: global array values get shifted

Part Number: TMS320F28069

I have a strange bug in CLA code. I initialize values of a global array in CLA memory as follows:

The values of BackEmfProfInit get shifted by three positions, i.e. 2->5, 3->6 etc. The first two values are rubbish. I am at a loss as to how this could happen. I configure CLA memory as follows:

Fullscreen
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
// Set memory available to CLA.
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.all = 0;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.PROGE = 1;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.RAM0E = 1;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.RAM1E = 1;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.RAM2E = 1;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.RAM0CPUE = 0;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.RAM1CPUE = 0;
Cla1Regs.MMEMCFG.bit.RAM2CPUE = 0;

And in the CMD linker file:

Fullscreen

5
CLARAM : origin = 0x008000, length = 0x001000 /* on-chip RAM block L0/L1/L2 */
...
.scratchpad : > CLARAM, PAGE = 1
.bss_cla : > CLARAM, PAGE = 1
.const_cla : > CLARAM, PAGE = 1
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I checked, the memory is not double-booked. Anybody any idea?

  • Ok, kind of making a habit here of answering my own questions, but separating the memory section according to physical blocks did the trick. Thus like this:

    Fullscreen
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
    7
    CLARAM2 : origin = 0x008000, length = 0x000800 /* on-chip RAM block L0 */
    CLARAM0 : origin = 0x008800, length = 0x000400 /* on-chip RAM block L1 */
    CLARAM1 : origin = 0x008C00, length = 0x000400 /* on-chip RAM block L2 */
    ...
    .scratchpad : > CLARAM0, PAGE = 1
    .bss_cla : > CLARAM2, PAGE = 1
    .const_cla : > CLARAM1, PAGE = 1

  • Thanks for the update.
