Get started with SysLink

Hi,

What board are you using ?

What are you trying to do?

SYSLINK examples compilation ?

Please refer the below TI wiki link for SYSLINK.

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/MCSDK_OMAPL138_User_Guide_Chapter_Exploring#Build_Syslink

Another question: if exists some guide for understanding the basics of embedded programming of this board in general and after for the specific syslink that i would learn...

Please elaborate your requirements,

Is any linux or DSP app developments ?

I'm using the OMAP-L138 DSP-ARM9 (LCDK) and excuse me i forgotten to post the link of the tutorial that i'm reading: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Creating_CCS_Project_for_SysLink_samples

when i build this for evmTI814X as the example, the projects builds fine. After i tried to do the same thing for the board that i'm using with the properties settings that i posted above and ccstudio returns the errors that i posted above.

Please elaborate your requirements,

the intermediate target is to implement a communication between the ARM and DSP processors and i thought that the tutorial that i posted above is a good starting point to understand this (in the final target i'd implement an application that do a video streaming in internet). I already read and i compiled and build the syslink example as mentioned in the link that you posted me.

Thank you for your attention.

Hi,

Thanks for your inputs.

when i build this for evmTI814X as the example, the projects builds fine. After i tried to do the same thing for the board that i'm using with the properties settings that i posted above and ccstudio returns the errors that i posted above.

1) From your screen shot, You have selected the board type DA830/DA828 and not LCDK, also variant is C64xx and not C674x.

2) Have you tried to build SYSLINK examples on ubuntu linux host machine?

3) The CCS error seems to be XDS tools version mismatching.

I will try this from my end and let you know.

FYI:

OMAPL138LCDK/DA850 -> C6748 DSP core and ARM9 core

OMAPL137/DA830 -> C6747 DSP core and ARM9 core

Ok, my board is L138/C6748 (hence OMAPL138LCDK/DA850 -> C6748 DSP core and ARM9 core as you addressed me).

Now i changed these properties as shown below (for Main):

and for RTSC:

The error changed as shown below:

**** Build Finished ****

I think that i have to update the Ipc version (but i hope that i selected right properties for the board...). Thank you already!

Hi,

I'm also getting the same error.

It is not seems to be a IPC version error but I hope this attachment given on below link only for TI81xx series board and not for LCDK or OMAPL138 EVM or DA850.

What do you say?

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Creating_CCS_Project_for_SysLink_samples

Because, It has support "DMTIMER" in .cfg file which is not relevant to OMAPL138,

I can't find any OMAPL138 changes on .cfg file.

Have you renamed it ?

If not, Please share me the exact link to download that which project you are using currently.

Here i shared my project (if i understood well...):

1643.MessageQ139_DSP.zip

Hi,

Where did you download this project?

Link Please.

Is it from TI link or any other ?

Have you modified anything or Just you did importing project to CCS ?

I followed the procedures listed in that link that i posted above and i report here:

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Creating_CCS_Project_for_SysLink_samples

i imported samples files of syslink (version 2.10.08.35) (from the path <syslink_root>/packages/ti/syslink/samples/rtos/messageQ):

MessageQApp.c

MessageApp_common.cfg.xs

/omap1xx/MessageQ_omap1xx_dsp.cfg

SysLinkSamples_common.cfg (in ../samples/rtos/common)

Hi,

This packages are used for building syslink in linux host machine.

I don't find any CCS project files there and  I hope you have created new CCS project and copied those file may be,

ti@ti:~/Downloads/syslink_2_10_08_35/packages/ti/syslink/samples/hlos/messageQ$ ls
knl  MessageQApp.c  usr
ti@ti:~/Downloads/syslink_2_10_08_35/packages/ti/syslink/samples/hlos/messageQ$

Looking that guide i think that i have to compile first the rtos (DSP) part of the example (the file that you posted me are for ARM side, hlos, i think...)... I'm really confused and i'm glad if there is some similar example built with CCS up and running that runs with OMAPL138 (DSP and ARM side)...

I'm looking to understand something... Could you link me if there is an example up and running?

Is there a running example for building a syslink application with code composer for omap-l138? I'm really stuck!
