Strange problem with Timestamp_get64()...

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

I drove into a strange problem with Timestamp_get64(), which for a longer time I had not used.

Currently I get dozens of these messages:

Ipc_attach: Ipc_procSyncStart failed!

as soon as I start calling Timestamp_get64() from within my IUNIVERSAL codec.

If I disable these lines, all runs fine.

This above error message I know from EZSDK 5.03, see this thread. My current setting (in the meanwhile I am using EZSDK 5.04.00.11) corresponds to the solution in that thread:

// Change timer frequency for Linux server
var timer = xdc.useModule('ti.sysbios.timers.dmtimer.Timer');
timer.intFreq.lo = 20000000;

Am I missing a corresponding setting within the Timestamp module?

Thanks in advance, and kind regards,
Joern.

  • In the meanwhile I tried to use  CLK_gethtime() for time measurement, and this seems to work, at least calls of this function do not lead to any problems like above, and the returned values seem to make sense.

    But if I call CLK_countspms(), too, then again I have the problem written about above.

    Any idea concerning this?

    Thanks in advance,
    Joern.
