Unable to find the /lib/firmware/ folder to load DSP FW in SDK-Linux v6.3.0.106

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAPL138

Hello,

I am currently using SDK v4.0.0.4 and is stable but noticed there is new SDK 6.3.0.106 so trying to update my system to use the latest Linux. 

However, have few issues:

In the old Filesystem DSP Firmware was at /lib/firmware/rproc-dsp-fw

but can find the equivalent on this location for SDK v6.3.0.106.

Can you please let me know the new location for DSP Firmware, please. Thanks.  

  • The device, I am using is OMAPL138 SoC. Thanks. 

  • Hi, Mitesh,

    It is at the same folder in PLSDK 6.3. Please see the file after I extract the filesystem. I don't have the latest PLSDK 6.3 installed, but still at 6.0 release, but this doesn't change the location.

    :~/work/ti-processor-sdk-linux-omapl138-lcdk-06.00.00.07/filesystem/tisdk$ ls lib/firmware/
    ipc rproc-dsp-fw

  • HI Rex,

    When using the create SD card partition for FileSystem: 

    It's asks for Path of the SD card tarballs: /home/mitesh/ti-processor-sdk*6.3.0.106*/ 

    (I have install the SDK at /home/mitesh/.)

    is this path correct? or I should give the path of the FileSystem location? 

    And should I need to un-compress the filesystem?

    And when it asks to choose one of the rootfs tarballs , I am selecting "tisdk-server-rootfs-image-omapl138.tar.xz"  but not sure which I should use. 

    (I was using extra tarballs in SDK v4.0.0.4)

  • HI Rex, not sure, what changed but after trying again, and using server File system, I am now seeing /lib/firmware/ folder.
