C6747 BIOS PSP for linux installtions?

Markus Grunwald

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSBIOS

Hello,

 

I would like to program the SPI interface of a C6747 DSP. On a windows installation , I found this guide:

c:\Programme\Texas Instruments\pspdrivers_01_20_00\docs\C6747\C6747_BIOSPSP_Userguide.pdf

 

It mentions Device drivers for SPI and would be just what I need. But: We're not developing with Windows, but with linux. I installed the toolchain following these instructions:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Installing_the_Software_for_OMAP-L137

 

I can't find these pspdrivers on my linux installation. Google didn't help, nor did my.TI. I have no idea, where to find pspdrivers or CSL for linux.

 

Could you please help me?

TIA

Markus

    Hi Markus,

    Unfortunately, there is no DSP/BIOSTM PSP Drivers installation for Linux available for download.

    Hello,

     

    I see. This sounds a bit odd - in the end this software is completely OS independent, isn't it? Is there a way to use the installed data from the windows platform? It should be possible to use it on Linux, too... Compiling with all the .prj files instead of Makefile could be a bit difficult...

     

    Strange. I thought since on many OMAPs, Linux is running, which makes developing on a linux platform a natural choice for me. And now I don't even get a CSL when compiling on linux?

     

    Thanks for your quick answer and sorry for posting in the wrong forum...

    I am facing the same problem. I'm intregrating Windows/PSP code into Linux/DSPLink code. Did you find a solution?

    A lot has changed here since the days when I needed the PSP...

    I'm completely developing on Linux and have dumped CCSv5. Instead, all I use is xdc and my beloved emacs...

    Using sysbios v6, communication works flawless this way and I have no need for a PSP since all I need is available with the BIOS, EDMA, SYSLINK... I don't use SPI now, which was the reason for my question, I think...

    So beside a lot of gobbledygook, I can offer no help.... sorry.

    As the packages do just seem to be a collection of files I've had success in installing them in Windows then 'tar'ing up the installed directory.

    The only catch is that a lot of the files have capitalised include files which have to be modified on a case sensitive file system, so I had to go around changing "iom.h" to IOM.h in about a hundred places.

    It would be nice if TI could provide this officially as it doesn't seem like much work to fix.
