Original question:

AM5729: TI PDK SBLLibCPUReset function stuck in while loop

AM5729: AM5729 vs AM5729-E: Utils_eveBoot Infinite Loop

Part Number: AM5729

Tool/software:

Hi,

I am having some problems with ti-opencl monitor firmware execution which I believe may be related to the related question on this post. I have a variety of different AM5729 chips:

Those with a DIE_ID_2 (Part Number Identifier) starting with 0x4E all seem to get stuck in an infinite loop somewhere with Utils_eveBoot function (related posts suggests it is related to SBLLibCPUReset  / PMHALResetRelease ).

Those with a DIE_ID_2 starting with 0x3E all have no problems and opencl firmware can execute correctly.

From looking into the ti-opencl source code there are checks if the board type starts with 0x3E or 0x4E as such:

static int GetNumEVEDevices()
{
uint32_t board_type = ( *((uint32_t *) CTRL_WKUP_STD_FUSE_DIE_ID_2)
& 0xFF000000) >> 24;
int num_eves = 0;
if ( board_type == 0x3E || // AM5729-E (EtherCat)
board_type == 0x4E) // AM5729

This is where I noticed different names in the comments for these chips. I can see online the AM5729-E  refers to the chip with all industrial protocols enabled. Are there differences with the enabling of the industrial protocols  that may be contributing to the issues I have having. I am using SDK 6.0.032 and the main problem is I am unable to run any OpenCL related examples. I am quite suspicious as to why all of my AM5729-E boards work with OpenCL but AM5729 boards do not, and would love to know the different between these Part Numbers.

I have made another post regarding this issue for reference but made another post on the suggestion of the TI support member who was helping me (https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/1346538/am5729-ti-opencl-firmware-execution-problem---stuck-at-booting-eve-s---tiocl-fatal-failed-to-open-eve-message-queue).
