How to change platform to OMAP-L138 in "Notify" example?

Guru 15580 points
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L138, OMAP-L137, OMAPL138

I have created a new "ARM_notify" and "DSP_notify" projects using the example templates in the IPC & I/O examples Project Templates window. I have used my own custom platform. However, the notify_common.cfg.xs file "ti.sdo.ipc.family.da830.NotifySetup" instead of an OMAP_L138 device. I have tried to find a way to change "da830" to an OMAP device, but do not see it listed in ti.sdo,ipc.familiy list.

How do I change this to an OMAP-L138 device? Why does the OMAP-L138 example include the da830?

Thx,

MikeH

 

  • The OMAP-L138 device shares IPC support modules (ti.sdo.ipc.family.da830.*) with DA830 and OMAP-L137.  There isn't a separate 'omapl138' family package.

    Keep in mind that your application only needs the following two lines of configuration if you are using two interrupt lines for use with Notify in your application.

    var NotifySetup = xdc.useModule('ti.sdo.ipc.family.da830.NotifySetup');
    NotifySetup.useSecondLine = true;

    Unless you are actually using this functionality, you can remove these two.

  • Shreyas,

    Thanks for the prompt response.

    I seem to be learning quite few tidbits from your directly. Is there a Wiki or some additional documentation that I can read? Or, better yet, a training module on this subject?

    Thx,

  • Unfortunately, I don't know of any such resource.  The IPC users guide, the BIOS forum and the IPC examples are currently the best resources to learn more about IPC.

  • OK. I can tell you, from a new user perspective, this level of documentation is totally inadequate. If you are a seasoned veteran of TI-speak, this may be OK. But trying to learn it for the first time is a real challenge.

    Thanks for your prompt responses. Much appreciated.
