NXP i.MX
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
This BSP offers only one variant, the `imx7`. This variant supports the i.MX
|
|
7Dual processor. The basic hardware initialization is not performed by the
|
|
BSP. A boot loader with device tree support must be used to start the BSP,
|
|
e.g. U-Boot.
|
|
|
|
Build Configuration Options
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following options are available at the configure command line.
|
|
|
|
``BSP_PRESS_KEY_FOR_RESET``
|
|
If defined to a non-zero value, then print a message and wait until pressed
|
|
before resetting board when application terminates.
|
|
|
|
``BSP_RESET_BOARD_AT_EXIT``
|
|
If defined to a non-zero value, then reset the board when the application
|
|
terminates.
|
|
|
|
``BSP_PRINT_EXCEPTION_CONTEXT``
|
|
If defined to a non-zero value, then print the exception context when an
|
|
unexpected exception occurs.
|
|
|
|
``BSP_FDT_BLOB_SIZE_MAX``
|
|
The maximum size of the device tree blob in bytes (default is 262144).
|
|
|
|
``CONSOLE_USE_INTERRUPTS``
|
|
Use interrupt driven mode for console devices (enabled by default).
|
|
|
|
``IMX_CCM_IPG_HZ``
|
|
The IPG clock frequency in Hz (default is 67500000).
|
|
|
|
``IMX_CCM_UART_HZ``
|
|
The UART clock frequency in Hz (default is 24000000).
|
|
|
|
``IMX_CCM_AHB_HZ``
|
|
The AHB clock frequency in Hz (default is 135000000).
|
|
|
|
Boot via U-Boot
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The application executable file (ELF file) must be converted to an U-Boot
|
|
image. Use the following commands:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
arm-rtems5-objcopy -O binary app.exe app.bin
|
|
gzip -9 -f -c app.bin > app.bin.gz
|
|
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -a 0x80200000 -e 0x80200000 -n RTEMS -d app.bin.gz app.img
|
|
|
|
Use the following U-Boot commands to boot an application via TFTP download:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
tftpboot ${loadaddr} app.img && run loadfdt && bootm ${loadaddr} - ${fdt_addr} ; reset
|
|
|
|
Clock Driver
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The clock driver uses the `ARMv7-AR Generic Timer`.
|
|
|
|
Console Driver
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The console driver supports up to seven on-chip UARTs. They are initialized
|
|
according to the device tree. The console driver does not configure the pins.
|
|
|
|
I2C Driver
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
I2C drivers are registered by the ``i2c_bus_register_imx()`` function. The I2C
|
|
driver does not configure the pins.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
#include <assert.h>
|
|
#include <bsp.h>
|
|
|
|
void i2c_init(void)
|
|
{
|
|
int rv;
|
|
|
|
rv = i2c_bus_register_imx("/dev/i2c-0", "i2c0");
|
|
assert(rv == 0);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
SPI Driver
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
SPI drivers are registered by the ``spi_bus_register_imx()`` function. The SPI
|
|
driver configures the pins according to the ``pinctrl-0`` device tree property.
|
|
SPI transfers with a continuous chip select are limited by the FIFO size of 64
|
|
bytes. The driver has no DMA support.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
#include <assert.h>
|
|
#include <bsp.h>
|
|
|
|
void spi_init(void)
|
|
{
|
|
int rv;
|
|
|
|
rv = spi_bus_register_imx("/dev/spi-0", "spi0");
|
|
assert(rv == 0);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Network Interface Driver
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
The network interface driver is provided by the `libbsd`. It is initialized
|
|
according to the device tree. It supports checksum offload and interrupt
|
|
coalescing. IPv6 transmit checksum offload is not implemented. The interrupt
|
|
coalescing uses the MII/GMII clocks and can be controlled by the following
|
|
system controls:
|
|
|
|
* ``dev.ffec.<unit>.int_coal.rx_time``
|
|
* ``dev.ffec.<unit>.int_coal.rx_count``
|
|
* ``dev.ffec.<unit>.int_coal.tx_time``
|
|
* ``dev.ffec.<unit>.int_coal.tx_count``
|
|
|
|
A value of zero for the time or count disables the interrupt coalescing in the
|
|
corresponding direction.
|
|
|
|
MMC/SDCard Driver
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
The MMC/SDCard driver (uSDHC module) is provided by the `libbsd`. It is
|
|
initialized according to the device tree. Pin re-configuration according to
|
|
the serial clock frequency is not supported. Data transfers are extremely
|
|
slow. This is probably due to the missing DMA support.
|
|
|
|
Caveats
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The clock and pin configuration support is quite rudimentary and mostly relies
|
|
on the boot loader. For a pin group configuration see
|
|
``imx_iomux_configure_pins()``. There is no power management support.
