AM5728: RTOS SBL build issue

Anders Viken

Part Number: AM5728

Hello.

I am working on a project were we are using the evmam5728 as reference design, and we want to use QSPI flash. The QSPI flash is connected and ready to be tested. I want to boot from SD and QSPI. Booting example projects from SD seems to work fine. When booting from QSPI, I need to create a specific MLO file. My approach is to change the .c files in ti/boot/sbl and rebuild sbl. So here is my issue: when using the make command as described here: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Processor_SDK_RTOS_BOOT_AM57x

Go to cd (TI_PDK_INSTALL_DIR)\packages\ti\boot\sbl

make example BOARD=<BOARD> SOC=<SOC> to build the application
make example_clean BOARD=<BOARD>

make[1]: Entering directory 'C:/ti/pdk_am57xx_1_0_8/packages/ti/boot/sbl'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/ti/boot/sbl/binary/idkAM572x/example/a15/mpuc0/obj/sbl_multicore_mpu.o', needed by '/ti/boot/sbl/binary/idkAM572x/example/a15/mpuc0/bin/sbl_app.out'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory 'C:/ti/pdk_am57xx_1_0_8/packages/ti/boot/sbl'
makefile:77: recipe for target 'example' failed
make: *** [example] Error 2

I get the same error message in Linux ubuntu and Windows (mingw32-make).

I would be very happy to be pushed in the right direction on how to build SBL, and how to create a specific MLO file.

Thanks to the TI community for your continuous support,

Anders.

# am57xx
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, # am57xx, ...) failed.
make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified.
makefile:155: recipe for target 'sbl' failed

Further information:
In linux, I use GNU Make 4.1
In Windows, I use GNU Make 3.82.90 (MinGW)

Anders,

Please note that in Windows the processor SDK build is done using gmake and not make. You don`t need yo use MinGW as gmake is packaged as part of the SDK. It seems that your SDK Build environment setup is not done correctly.

Please follow the instructions here to setup the SDK build envionment:
processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_Building_The_SDK

Let us know if you are still having any issues.

Regards,
Rahul

PS: If you are build this in Linux, you need to install mono before invoking the build.

Thank you!
I did not understand that I had to run the pdksetupenv.bat from cmd, and then run gmake sbl from the same cmd window.
sbl builds fine now!
