Hi,

I am using DM8148 EVM kit. Which has syslink_2_00_04_83.

I want to use higher version of kernel (like 3.x), So which syslink  support is available.

Regards,

Ashwin Rase.

    Where exactly is located syslink_2_00_04_83 in the DM8148 EVM kit software package?

    The DM814x device is validated with 2.6.37. If you need to use 3.x version, it is possible, but it is huge amount of work.

    The last version of syslink for DM814x EZSDK is syslink_2_20_02_20. I think we do not have syslink for DM814x tested with 3.x kernel.

    The latest version of syslink is 2.21.03.11, and it is valid for DM814x device. You can download from:

    syslink_2_00_04_83 in the DM8148 EVM kit is located in "ezsdk_dm814x-evm_5_03_00_09_setuplinux" software package.

    After installation it comes under components-sources folder.

    Will you please elaborate your point of huge work in linux 3.x version development ?

    Also, I tried compiling syslink_2_00_04_83 with linux 3.2 version, but I am facing some problems in the following functions viz.,

    iommu_put, iommu_get, iopgtable_clear_entry & iopgtable_clear_entry.

    Do you have any idea, related to above point ?

    Regards,

    This is old version of the DM814x EZSDK. The latest version is 5.05.02.00, can be downloaded from:

    http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/ezsdk/latest/index_FDS.html

    The EZSDK can be used for DM8148 EVM but also for DM814x based custom board. The latest EZSDK 5.05.02.00 comes with syslink_2_20_02_20. While the latest syslink version is 2.21.03.11.

    The DM814x EZSDK comes with linux kernel 2.6.37, and there are many changes comparing with 3.x mainline.

    Can you try compiling with the latter versions of the syslink, do you have the same issues?
