RTOS/AM5716: SBL example does not work

Part Number: AM5716


Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hi,

I'm using:

- CCS Version: 7.2.0.00013

- SDK RTOS v3.03.00.04

- PDK v1.0.6, on Windows

I build a MLO (gmake sbl)

and the app file (gmake example BOARD=idkAM571x SOC=AM571x; set=...; AM57xImageGen.bat)

app build output:

Parsing the input object file, C:\ti\pdk_am57xx_1_0_6\packages\ti\boot\sbl\binary\idkAM571x\example\m4\ipu1\bin\sbl_app.xem4.
File conversion complete!
Parsing the input object file, C:\ti\pdk_am57xx_1_0_6\packages\ti\boot\sbl\binary\idkAM571x\example\c66\dsp1\bin\sbl_app.xe66.
File conversion complete!
Number of Input Files 2

If I now booting from the SD card, I get the following output:

**** PDK SBL ****<\r><\r><\n>**** Copying Application Image to DDR ****<\r>
<\r><\r><\n> SD Boot - file open completed successfully <\r><\r><\n>

What do I need to change to get the missing outputs?

Regarts,

Christian

  • Hi Christian,

    It looks like you're missing the ARM core in the app build output. This was most likely due to this typo in the wiki:

    Under step 2, the following command

    set APP_MPU_CPU0=%TI_PDK_INSTALL_DIR%\packages\ti\boot\sbl\binary\idkAM572x\example\armv7\bin\sbl_app.out

    should be

    set App_MPU_CPU0=%TI_PDK_INSTALL_DIR%\packages\ti\boot\sbl\binary\idkAM572x\example\armv7\bin\sbl_app.out

    If you see the build log, you will notice that only the DSP and M4 images got processed when creating the multi-core application image. The number of input files should show up to be 3 (1 for ARM, 1 for DSP and 1 for M4)

    Please try doing the above and running the script again, and let me know if that works.

    Best,

    Sahin

  • Hi Sahin,

    This was just indirect my problem. The path behind APPMPU_CPU0 points to an incorrect directory.

    Thank you very much

    Christian
