isdk_image.exe output

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Is it possible that the "sdk_image.exe" tool for the AM335x processors (included in AM335x SYSBIOS Industrial SDK) writes too many bytes into the output file? I think sdk_image.exe writes always 4 bytes at the end that are not part of the actual image. Can anyone see the same behaviour?

Thanks and best regards,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

You are right. It does add 4 extra bytes towards the end of the binary. We will see how this can be fixed.

Just to know, Did this create any issue for you ?

Thanks,

Shahid

Hi Shahid,

Thanks for the reply. No, this did not create any issue. First I was a bit unsure because we insert a image end token (32Bit) into our code for bootloader puposes and this end token was not the last 4 bytes. But now as we know, it is not a real issue.

Best regards,
Patrick
