DaVinci Open Source Linux, and DVEVM (DM6446) SPI support

Hi,

I've found online references to SPI support being added for the DM6446 DaVinci device as of Linux version 2.6.31 RC7, of the DaVinci Linux Open Source kernel.

Does anyone know if the DaVinci Open Source Linux v2.6.31 (which I assume incorporates all the *.31 RC's) actually does have SPI support for the DM6446 (as I can't see the same source files as in the *.31 RC7 posts)?

 

Thanks, Will.

  • Having downloaded a snapshot and run from my new linux folder,  xconfig and then:

    make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm_v5t_le- uImage

    it successfully makes an image which it claims is for the ARM.

    When I pop the image onto my TFTP server, it downloads fine but when it tries to execute it says 'Undefined Instruction', dumps some debug register values and then says 'Resetting CPU', which it does.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks, Will.

  • OK, I think I had a bad config setup (via Xconfig), suffice to say its OK now.

    However, is there a way to get a 'file system' that matches my new 3.6.31 Kernel?

    And do I have to worry about using the MontaVista file system that came with my SDK installation?

    Thanks,Will.
