Can not rmmod the pru_rproc.ko module?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM4379, ADS7846

Dear Sirs,

   I download the rtlinux SDK from TI website, and then I compile and download to SD Card, the kernel and the application both can running, but I rmmod the pru_rproc.ko  is hang on, I try this command was ok when use the rt4.4.12 kernel.I don't know how to fix this problem.

Thanks so much.

Best Regards.

  • Hi Hans,

    Could you specify what is your HW (processor and board)?

  • Hi Tsvetolin,

        I running on AM4379, the board is similiar as EVM board. But the rt4.4.12 is Ok, rt4.4.19 has this problem.

       BR

      Hans.

                                     Hans.

  • Hans,

    As of Linux Processor SDK v3.1.0.6 (linux 4.4.19), both PRU subsystems in the AM437x device are supported (and can be loaded) by the Linux driver (pru_rproc). In previous versions of the Linux Processor SDK only one PRU subsystem could be loaded by the Linux driver.

    See the below wiki pages for more info:

    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../AM437x_Linux_PRU_Driver

  • Hi   Pavel,

        Thanks for your response. 

        But I  can not rmmod -f  the pru_proc module.

        Best Regards.

        Hans.

  • Hans,

    Can you also provide the log for rt4.4.12 (rmmod -f pru_rproc.ko) ?

    In rt4.4.19, can you try first to remove rpmsg_client_sample.ko and pruss.ko, then pru_rproc.ko.

    Can you also provide the output of the "lsmod" command?

    target#lsmod

    Regards,
    Pavel

  • Hi Pavel,

       Thanks for your response.

       My board no rpmsg_client_sample.ko , I following the lsmod informations.

  • Hans,

    Can you also provide the log for rt4.4.12 (rmmod -f pru_rproc.ko) ?

    Hans Huang1 said:
    root@am437x-evm:~# lsmod

    I do not see the pru_proc.ko module in the lsmod list, the only PRU related modules I see there are pruss and remoteproc. Are you trying to remove module (pru_proc.ko) that do not exist?

    Regards,
    Pavel

  • Can you also provide the log for rt4.4.12 (rmmod -f pru_rproc.ko) ?

    In rt4.4.19, can you try first to remove pruss then pru_proc?

    Can you also try with the full path?

  • Hans,

    Seems that there are some differences between 4.4.12 and 4.4.19 regarding pru_rproc. You can identify these differences and apply the 4.4.12 approach in 4.4.19.
