minor progress with plb_temac v3.00a, EDK 8.2, & 2.6.18.1

Sun Nov 5 02:02:09 EST 2006

Pradeep;

Booting with a ramdisk is a matter of putting the appropriate image in the arch/ppc/boot/images directory (I obtained mine from the gsrd design files), adding the root=/dev/ram rw on the command-line boot options, making the .config changes for ram disk support and initrd usage, and issuing a make zImage.initrd command.

Beware when upgrading to 2.6.18.1 as you may have difficulties with the adapter.c you obtained previously.  The adapter.c in EDK 8.2 is not as easy to find.  Using the EDK to generate software components for linux will not expose the proper adapter.c.  I had to use the path that Rick Moleres posted earlier to retrieve the adapter.c which I used for 2.6.18.1 and in my notes.

This is great! I played around for a while with the Sysace CF driver patches and got it to work. Since you are booting with ramdisk image would you be kind enough to add more text on how to do that? I see that you are using UART Lite? Does it require any special setting for the boot logs to show up on the standard hyperterminal. 

  I am planning on rebuilding the whole system using EDK 8.2 and linux kernel 2.6.18.1.

  For those interested, I have acheived some measure of success with the plb_temac driver.

I have attached a txt file of what I had to do to get it working under 2.6.18.1

I am using the plb_temac in DMA mode 3

Below you will see the boot dump.

For those able to help, can
 anyone provide insight as to the failure of setting PHY link speed?

Using plb_temac v3.00a & hard_temac v3.00b

Generate s/w libraries

1. copy or ftp the following files from C:\EDK\sw\ThirdParty\bsp\linux_2_6_v1_00_a\linux\
to the base directory of the linux source tree

USED:
arch\ppc\platforms\4xx\xparameters\xparameters.h

**
 UNUSED
arch\ppc\platforms\4xx\virtex.c
arch\ppc\boot\simple\embed_config.c
include\linux\xilinx_devices.h

2. copy C:\EDK\sw\ThirdParty\bsp\linux_2_6_v1_00_a\drivers\temac_linux_2_6_v2_00_b\src\adapter.c to
../drivers/net/xilinx_temac/adapter.c

3. copy or ftp ..\linux\arch\ppc\platforms\xilinx_ocp => drivers/xilinx_edk
Note: Remove all old files first *except* Kconfig, xio.h

4. modify drivers/xilinx_edk/Makefile with the following to look like this:

# Linux file to EXPORT_SYMBOL all of the Xilinx entries.
obj-$(CONFIG_XILINX_EDK) += xilinx_syms.o
#
# # The Xilinx OS independent code.
xilinx_syms-objs := xbasic_types.o \
xdmav3.o xdmav3_intr.o xdmav3_selftest.o xdmav3_simple.o xdmav3_sg.o \
xipif_v1_23_b.o \
xpacket_fifo_l_v2_00_a.o xpacket_fifo_v2_00_a.o \
xversion.o

5. Modify your copied xparameters_ml403.h (see notes below) as follows:
add these lines after #define
 XPAR_PLB_TEMAC_0_INCLUDE_RX_CSUM

#define XPAR_TEMAC_0_IPIF_RDFIFO_DEPTH XPAR_PLB_TEMAC_0_RXFIFO_DEPTH
#define XPAR_TEMAC_0_IPIF_WRFIFO_DEPTH XPAR_PLB_TEMAC_0_TXFIFO_DEPTH
#define XPAR_TEMAC_0_MAC_FIFO_DEPTH XPAR_PLB_TEMAC_0_MAC_FIFO_DEPTH
#define XPAR_TEMAC_0_TEMAC_DCR_HOST 0
#define XPAR_TEMAC_0_INCLUDE_DRE 1

6. (optional) modify arch/ppc/platforms/virtex.h to accomodate RX_CSUM XPAR

struct xtemac_platform_data {
#ifdef XPAR_TEMAC_0_INCLUDE_RX_CSUM
u8 tx_dre;
u8 rx_dre;
u8 tx_csum;
u8 rx_csum;
u8 phy_type;
#endif
u8 dma_mode;
u32 rx_pkt_fifo_depth;
u32 tx_pkt_fifo_depth;
u16 mac_fifo_depth;
u8 dcr_host;
u8 dre;
u8 mac_addr[6];
};

7. Modify ../drivers/net/xilinx_temac/adapter.c to remove #include and
add #include 
add #include
