SYS/Bios 6 PSP Support

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L138

Hi,

 

We are trying to upgrade our system to SYS/BIOS 6 and I had a few quick questions regarding compatibility with PSP drivers.

First off is there a version of PSP drivers for the DM6437 that are compatible with SYS/BIOS 6? We are currently using "pspdrivers_1_10_00" from DVSDK "dvsdk_1_11_00_00". 

If they are compatible can someone please point me in the direction of a guide on how to incorporate one into the new SYS/BIOS cfg file. A perfect example would be an I2C driver.

 

Thanks,

 

Mark

  • Hello,

    I have the same question. I am trying to use the UART PSP driver from the same "pspdrivers_1_10_00" with CCS 4.2 SYS/BIOS 6. When it builds I get about 50 linking errors similar to the ones below. Any ideas what would cause this?

     

    Thanks,

    Ben

  • Hi Mark,

    There are NO versions of the PSP Drivers for DM6437 that are compatible with SYS/BIOS 6.

    BenM,

    If you are using the BIOS 5, then please make sure you have installed all the tools (As mentioned in section 1.1.2 System Requirements of PSP_User_Guide) and incorporated with the pspdrivers_1_10_00. By doing so, you may not observe these errors.

    If you are using the BIOS 6, then, I have already mentioned that pspdrivers_1_10_00 is not compatible with SYS/BIOS 6. Looking at your error log, it seems like the pspdrivers_1_10_00 is unable to link with the BIOS6. For Example: BIOS6 uses Cache module and BIOS5 - BCACHE. Similar is the case with ECM and CLK. And since the module has changed, there are possibilities of getting such linking errors since pspdrivers_1_10_00 comes with BIOS 5 itself.

    Please refer BIOS5 and SYS/BIOS6 Userguides for more details regarding these modules.  

    Hope this answers your questions..

     

    Thanks & regards,

  • Thanks, I was trying to use it with SYS/BIOS 6. I will go back to 5 now.

  • Here is 2/25 2012.

    Could you tell me what's time does PSP drivers support for SYS/BIOS 6?

    Thanks,

  • Yang Hai,

    BIOSPSP for SYS/BIOS 6 is available only for C6748 device. Please refer http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/psp/BIOSPSP/index.html

  • Dear Shanmuga,
    Is BIOSPSP for SYS/BIOS 6 available for OMAP-L1x device? Do you know where to download the BIOS PSP release compatible for OMAP-L13x with SYS/BIOS 6.x? Because I need use the sata disk in OMAP-L138 and I really need it eagerly.
    I will appreciate it if you could help me. Best wishes!

  • Samantha,

    This is an old thread and I doubt you will be able to get much help for this question on this forum. I suggest you post this as a new thread in the OMAP-L E2E forum.
