LWIP DMTimerused ? DMTimer5 and DMTimer6??

Hello,

I see that the "sitaraif.c" file use delay function. This delay function uses normally the DMTimer7.

Does the LWIP use other DMTimer resource of the am335x? Because on the platform presents in starterware, there are only DMTimer2, DMTimer3, DMTimer4 and DMTimer7 implemented.

Why DMTimer0, DMTimer1, DMTimer5 and DMTimer6 are not implemented in the platform (beaglebone and EVM)?

I understand for DMTimer0 and DMTimer1 because they are a little bit special but DMTimer5 and DMTimer6.....

Best regards,

Christian Lambricht

  • Hi Lambricht,

    lwIP port doesnt use any other timer. Also, StarterWare uses only DMTimer2, DMTimer3, DMTimer4 and DMTimer7 in demo application and for delay. Other timers are not demonstrated just because they are not used. For usage of DMTimer, you can refer DMTimer example application. DMTimer1ms is not demonstrated in StarterWare.
