TMS320F28379D: CPU2 context in C200Ware

Part Number: TMS320F28379D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG, C2000WARE

Hi

When using C2000Ware 4.2.0.0, and the sysConfig tool. During the setup step, and when i select a 28379D device.

I get the extra field of selecting context, but only choice is CPU1. I would expect CPU1 and CPU2 as choice options.

When looking inside the sdk.json, I see that only CPU1 is listed in the context: structure on line 38 and forward.

I took a look back at V 4.1.0.0 of C200Ware, Here i find the config of the context to be commented out.

I can see that all the functions like `getContextNames` and others is prepared to return CPU1 and CPU2.

I tried changing the `context`definition inside sdk.json to also cover CPU2 (in version 4.2.0.0), and it does give me the expected choices inside Sysconfig and the available peripherals is limited as expected for CPU2.

This leads me to one of two conclusions.

1. The support for CPU context is not ready yest, and should have been commented out like in V 4.1.0.0.

2. The support for CPU2 context is there, but as bug it was not added correctly to sdk.json.

Can you please tell which conclusion is the correct one?

  • Hi Martin,

    Currently CPU2 and multi-core support is not available in SysConfig. It will be available in next release 4.03.00.00 which is in March, 2023.
