Gauthier <charles.gauthier@nrc.ca>. The power supply in their
VMEbus cage died so it was submitted at this point. It passes ttcp
which is a really good sign but they would like to do more testing
and cleanup once their hardware is functional again. Please
contact them if you are interested in using or fixing this driver.
As their comments indicate, the performance is actually quite good
even at this point as indicated by the ttcp results.
Please note that this is by no means a final version. The code is still
fairly ugly, and will require some further fixing. On the bright side, what
is attached works. I finally ran the test programs successfully with
optimized code and data cache enabled:
netdemos worked, but failed on the UDP transfer (runs out of buffers).
ttcp worked, with something like 1036 KB/sec Rx, 952 KB/sec Tx.
tftp worked
linkcmds updated, simio references removed, and switch to libchip for
serial ports from simio.
Added a MEMORY_MAP file to capture information about the various
addresses on this board.
In addition, many of the beta patches are now included.
Bob Wisdon <bobwis@ascweb.co.uk> and Chris Johns <ccj@acm.org>
to resolve a random network lockup problem.
ckinit.c:
Occasional network lockups have been noted when the PIT has a higher
interrupt request level than the CPM. The SCC1 bit in the CISR is set
even though the SCC1 interrupt handler is not active. This blocks
interrupts from SCC1 (and all other CPM sources) and locks up the
system. It has not been determined whether the error is within the
68360 or in the RTEMS interrupt support assembler code. The solution,
for now, is to set both PIT and CPM interrupt request levels to the same
value (4).
network.c:
Set CPM transmitter buffer pointer (_tbptr) to beginning of frame
before restarting transmitter. Don't retire transmitter buffer
descriptors belonging to the restarted frame.
that contains:
* Removes remaining (now illegal) references to $(SRC) from a couple of
Makefile.ams
* Removes duplicate AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS macro from c/configure.in
* Moves ENABLE_LIBCDIR into RTEMS_PROG_C[C|XX]_FOR_TARGET (hides LIBCDIR
from most configure scripts, i.e. LIBCDIR becomes less visible)
* Adds RTEMS_PROG_C[C|XX]_FOR_TARGET and RTEMS_CANONICALIZE_TOOLS to
libbsp/*/configure.ins (A minor bug in previous implementations, which
only has an impact when switching to GNU/Cygnus canonicalization)
* Cleans up several bogus comments.
* Removes MKLIB
* Switches the version number to 4.5.0 (for testing version number
handling)
that contains the automake files for libnetworking plus a couple of
minor fixes. [Now only one unused/unsupported Makefile.in remains
(./c/src/lib/libbsp/hppa1.1/pxfl/Makefile.in).]
To apply:
patch -p1 < rtems-rc-20000118-7.diff
/bin/sh rtems-rc-20000118-7.rm
/bin/sh rtems-rc-20000118-7.add
./bootstrap
Notes:
* I have tested this one by building all BSPs for m68k, powerpc, sh and
unix with toolchains built since last weekend.
* I did not touch libnetworking's directory layout.
that contains:
The workarounds related to the issues with
ppc/helas403 (triggers a nasty bug in automake-2.14) and mcp750.cfg
(Which is basically broken)
To apply:
patch -p1 < rtems-rc-20000118-6.diff
./bootstrap
Note:
* Though this patch is small, ./bootstrap is absolutely necessary.
* Now your CVS source tree is identical to my local CVS.
that contains:
* The fix for the gen68360/network/Makefile.am
* automatically set permissions to 755 to scripts/buildall and
scripts-ada/buildall (I remembered a trick to achieve this :).
* automake support for libbsp/* and libcpu/* (Attn: This part will
finally break old-style configuration for all non-public cpus)
NOTES:
* This patch has only been tested for a random selection of BSPs (I
haven't rebuilt all toolchains yet).
* This patch is against rtem-cvs as of this morning (MET).
