Why IPC_start() is holded in C6670 simulator

Did you set the "Ipc.procSync" field in your cfg file to Ipc.ProcSync_ALL? Maybe the Ipc_attach() process is halted in Ipc_start() if you set as that.

So you can check if the MultiProc.numProcessors is set to 4(C6670 situation) and MultiProc.setConfig(null, ["CORE0", "CORE1", "CORE2", "CORE3"]); like this.

Yes,These two field we have set.

Maybe you can have a look at http://e2e.ti.com/support/dsp/c6000_multi-core_dsps/f/639/t/127096.aspx

Or put your cfg file here for us to check it.

Below is the cfg file.Thanks!

Hi, I have tried the test using your cfg and it works normally, Ipc_start return a '0' with successful state.

Did you put all 4 cores into 'running' status? If not do so, the core0 will always wait until all cores have attached to each other.

Allen Lee,

Great thanks!The problem of IPC_Start() has been resolved.We have another problem in the FFTC test.

The FFTC test project we use is the FFTC_Simple_testProject in the pdk_c6670_1_0_0_11.

The Rx flow open failed.Can anyone use this test project example to check it.Thanks!
