Linux/AM5728: IPC examples build issues

I am trying to follow the instructions (below) to build the IPC examples for the AM5728 EVM but I am running into some problems.

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Processor_SDK_IPC_Quick_Start_Guide#Build_IPC_Linux_examples

The problem I am having is that when I go to build using

make ti-ipc-linux

I get the following output:

$ sudo make ti-ipc-linux

Error: TI_RTOS_PATH () does not contain
       the corresponding Processor SDK RTOS release!

Please install Processor SDK RTOS 04.03.00.05 for am57xx-evm.
Makefile:767: recipe for target 'ti-ipc-rtos-path-check' failed
make: *** [ti-ipc-rtos-path-check] Error 1

I have tried exporting the RTOS install path as an environment variable but it continues to output the same thing.

For reference here is the directory listing for the directory I point to for the RTOS install:

└── xdctools_3_50_03_33_core

I have Linux SDK Version 04.03.00.05

and TI RTOS SDK Version 04.03.00.05

What could be the cause of this error?

Hi Alex,

Here is what you need to add in ~/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am57xx-evm-04.03.00.05/Rules.make:
#Points to the root of the TI SDK
export TI_SDK_PATH=/home/users/ykovachev/ti-processor-sdk-linux-am57xx-evm-04.03.00.05

+#Points to TI RTOS
+export TI_RTOS_PATH=/home/users/ykovachev/ti

#root of the target file system for installing applications
DESTDIR=__DESTDIR__

After this modification I was able to build ti-ipc module.

Best Regards,
Yordan

Also here is the detailed guide on how to build IPC (and its components) in Processor SDK Linux:

Thanks Yorden, I didn't realize that the environment variables needed to be exported in the Rules.make file and not just in the global environment.

I am still trying to build the IPC examples and still having some issues. I can no get through some of the build, but encounter an error when the make script reaches the "Configuring IPC" section. Below is the output:

It seems that there is some `./configure` executable missing. How can I configure to make this work properly?
