TDA4VM: [network]eth1 does no show up on some linuxes

Hi,

From SDK 9.0 On words, default CPSW9G Virtual Mac Drivers are not loaded.
Please refer to FAQ [How to Bring up Main Domain CPSW in Linux].
Also refer to SDK Documentation.

Best Regards,
Sudheer

does it matter that I already have this:

"name_overlays=ti/k3-j721e-edgeai-apps.dtbo"

in the uEnv.txt file?

Hi,

The overlay for Virtual MAC Driver is different, Please refer to FAQ pointed above.
Add Virtual MAC Overlay as well along with other required overlays in uEnv.txt file.

Best Regards,
Sudheer

and what is the syntax of adding one after the other? it may be plain for you, who works with this stuff on a daily basis, but I do not know

I added this

"

name_overlays="ti/k3-j721e-evm-virt-mac-client.dtbo"

"

then I linked it,

still only these 2 appear:

I think overlay path may not required "ti/" I would be as below.

name_overlays="k3-j721e-evm-virt-mac-client.dtbo"

I do not know what I am doing.

I made the symlink for the remoswitching server thing, and then I updated the name_overlay with the "ti/k3-j721e-evm-virt-mac-client.dtbo"" inserted the sd card and booted, the eth1 was visible there was an IP, 2 other board connected via the QUAD thing also got IPs, but here is the funny thing, ping did not work it said "destination host unreachable", now I made the change you sugested, removing the "ti/", the eth1 was gone again, added it back, and not the eth1 is no longer appearing. I gave a "reboot" and now I am basicaly stuck at a reboot message:

Also, no ping possible, destination host unreachable, said the nxp board, ip ending in 173, when pinging ip ending in 200(ti board)

Hi, 

eth1 is virtual switch interface, eth2 is virtual Mac port corresponding to MAC Port-1. 

eth2 can ping devices connected to Port-1. 

Can you please share EthFw boot log from MCU2_0 core. 

Best Regards, 

Sudheer

btw, i found the syntax, in 09_00_00_08, in the uboot env I found this:

# Setting the right U-Boot environment variables

Hi,

Mircea Cociuba said:

name_overlays=ti/k3-j721e-evm-virt-mac-client.dtbo ti/k3-j721e-vision-apps.dtbo

In 9.0, we need to mentioned the path for overlay as "ti/overlay-name" (dtb path will be "/boot/dtb/")

In 9.1, the path of dtb itself includes ti. so just mention the overlay-name is sufficient (dtb path will be "/boot/dtb/ti")

I think by default "dorprocboot=1" in both 9.0 & 9.1

Best Regards,

I installed this thing: ti-processor-sdk-linux-adas-j721e-evm-09_01_00_06

creating an sdcard using the bib/create_sdcard.sh installs a Linux that by default has no eth1, so no network.

Here is the interesting thing, the uEnv.txt is just some comments, not variables are set inside. if I where to download the "boot-adas-j721e-evm.tar.gz" from the same version, from TI website. it contains this uEnv.txt:

# This uEnv.txt file can contain additional environment settings that you
# want to set in U-Boot at boot time.  This can be simple variables such
# as the serverip or custom variables.  The format of this file is:

# NOTE: This file will be evaluated after the bootcmd is run and the
#       bootcmd must be set to load this file if it exists (this is the
#       default on all newer U-Boot images.  This also means that some

With this uEnv.txt file and with the symbolic link to the switch_server I get this log on cpsw uart:

Any ideea?

btw: flashing the boot and rootfs from the ti website ( the 2 things bellow the .bin installer ) makes the screen not show anything. I raised a ticket for it.

Hi,

uEnv.txt you are using may not be correct, After flashing SD Card using the script.

Update the uEnv.txt in boot with below, and update soft link for Main R5F0_0 with app remote switch server image as mentioned in FAQ pointed above. 
name_overlays=k3-j721e-evm-virt-mac-client.dtbo 

If you are facing any issue with above, please let us know.

btw: flashing the boot and rootfs from the ti website ( the 2 things bellow the .bin installer ) makes the screen not show anything. I raised a ticket for it.

As SDK Is working, recommended to check with SDK Instead of file system directly.

Sudheer

Sorry for the confusion.

I mean use SDK release from ti product page (Highlighted Text in below)  as it was working, instead of using boor & Linux File systems (circled below) from ti product page as shown in below.

Wayland client works, I have a desktop.

After I do the changes you specify:

First change: link switchserver to j7-main-r5f0_0-fw, then hit reboot ( does not reboot, I have to manualy switch it off).

I have no screen now, waylan is not working.

Any ideea?

what script? what vision apps? i just wan to have the network up and running and a screen. 

Please write me a set of exact commands for me to run. I mean exact, vision script means nothing to me.

the only scripts I found:

installed the contents of the sdk on sdcard, via the create_sd script, set dorprocboot 1, boot, and did this:

I can confirm, it works. So I do not need to set dorprocboot to 1..

Now, the issue with the screen, if I add these:

name_overlays=k3-j721e-evm-virt-mac-client.dtbo k3-j721e-vision-apps.dtbo

I have no screen, but network.

If I add the "k3-j721e-edgeai-apps.dtbo" instead of "k3-j721e-vision-apps.dtbo", initial I do not have network, but after 5 minutes the eth1,2 sudently appear.

and I have screen.

So I am going to use this workarround with edgeai-apps.dtbo, because I need network and screen.

ran 2 of them, no screen...

Hi,

You might need to run the demos related to display like camera applications.

Can you raise a new thread related to display with vision apps overlay &  Linux SDK boot as is.

Best Regards,
Sudheer

I did, please close this thread.
