CCS: Host Emulation Mode for TIDL 00.08.00.00



Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Right now I do not have TDA2xx hardware But, they have mentioned that Host emulation is possible where i do not need actual hardware. So, I want to explore the TI Deep Learning interface for that I have downloaded PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_01_00_00 with TIDL.00.08.00.00 . I am following the guidelines mentioned in the TI Deep learning Library User Guide (available in this path:  PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_01_00_00\ti_components\algorithms\REL.TIDL.00.08.00.00\modules\ti_dl\docs)

A)  I am facing few issues while compilation and building tidl ALGO:

1. When i will run command {TI_DL_INSTALL_PATH} > gmake TARAGET_PLATFORM=PC

- error: Cannot open include file: VXLIB_cnn_maxPooling_2x2_skip2_i8s_o8s.h

2. When i will run command {TI_DL_INSTALL_PATH} > gmake CORE=dsp TARGET_BUILD=debug TARGET_PLATFORM=PC

- error: Cannot open include file: VXLIB_cnn_maxPooling_2x2_skip2_i8s_o8s.h

3. When i will run command {TI_DL_INSTALL_PATH} > gmake CORE=eveTARGET_BUILD=debug TARGET_PLATFORM=PC

- error: Cannot open include file: vcop_cnn_spatialPooling_kernel.h

- Not getting output: eve_test_dl_algo.out.exe and dsp_test_dl_algo.out.exe

B) I am able to build tidl TEST for dsp and eve

- Getting output : dsp_test_dl_algo.out and eve_test_dl_algo.out

C) After getting all the outputs , How to emulate this in CC Studio. ? 

- I did not find proper steps

-I chose TDA2x platform selected configuration file (.ccxml)

-As i do not have hardware, what should be connection?

Currently, I have kept Data Snapshot Viewer because I did not see simulation/emulation option

  • Hi Sagar,
    Please migrate to TIDL 01.00.00.00 release where DSP host emulation build is fixed.

    Before building EVE host emulation, EVE target need to be built with below command once to generate *kernel.h files.
    gmake CORE=eve.

    BTW, host emulations is supported in source release only from 01.00.00.00 version. 00.08.00.00 support EVE host emulation. EVE and DSP emulations are functionally same.

    Thanks and regards,
