Part Number: TMS320C6657
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Hi Champs.

There's an issue regarding IPC_start() blocked.

The envioronments are below.

CCS 10.1.1
SDK : processor sdk rtos c665x_6_03_00_106
SysBios : bios_6_76_03-01
PDK : pdk_c665x_2_0_16

The boot sequence is below.

RBL -> IBL -> Custom Image
ROM boot -> I2C EEPROM (0x51) -> SPI NOR Flash

Regarding IBL, The booting is proceeded after bootloader writing into I2C EEPROM 0x51.

They also used the IBL rebuilt which was provided by PDK.

For MAD booting, changed the Image load start address in device.c

Please figure why IPC_start() stucks somtimes. it's not 100% reproducible.

The CFG file is as below.

The failure log is captured below.

Jack Cha,

Good day!.

I have recently prepared an FAQ on "IBL + App flash " into SPI-NOR memory.

Please visit the steps given and compare them with your steps.

(1) [FAQ] TMS320C6657: How to flash the IBL ( Intermediate Boot loader ) into EEPROM and how to flash the application binary into NOR? How to boot the IBL + Application binary? - Processors forum - Processors - TI E2E support forums

Quick questions to you..

1. Did you load your "i2crom.bin" to 0x0C000000 ?

2. Did you load your app.bin to 0x80000000 ?

Regards
