TMDSMDSK6455: boot problem

dariush karami

Part Number: TMDSMDSK6455

I'm using a third_party project for booting the C6455 DSP and I didn't have any problem(DSP boot correctly). But DSP doesn't boot correctly now( I ping the DSP ethernet and there isn't any reply)

notice that, I use the same third_party project for booting.

The only difference is, I developed my program and the code is bigger(when I load my code, DSP work correctly).

I read the Bootloader User Guide (spruec6g.pdf) and I saw a note on page 52 as below:

Q1:

How can I correct any sections that are not multiples of 32?

Q2:

Do you have any suggestions for debugging? Please, guide me.

Hi, Dariush,

Both the DSP and the bootloader experts are out of office. Please expect slow response till they are back in office.

I read the link but it doesn't solve my problem.

As I write in the First question on top of the thread, TI said in the "spruec6g.pdf" as bellow:

"Correct any sections that are not multiply of 32 bits"

Q1:

How can I correct any sections that are not multiples of 32?

Q2:

Do you have any suggestions for debugging? Please, guide me.

Q3:

In which editor, I can see the "*.out" file contains?

Please help me to solve the problem.

Please refer to the response from George (our compiler team) on this topic

Generally, if you look at the map file generated by the compiler, you will see the section size in the .map summary.

.out file contains symbols and binary and is not contiguous and fragemented in different sections. You can convert the image into contiuous binary using hex6x and then view the binary using a HexEditor.

Hope this helps.

Rahul
