TI removed all the new PRU (version 2) functionality (that they didn't want to support) from the assembler they published. I resurrected some of these (documented in TRM rev C, undocumented since TRM rev D) instructions in my version of the assembler. Some are very handy, but I'll leave that for you to discover yourself : )

I saw the register dump in your code, anything > beyond? Nope, this has proven a reliable way to debug my code. Use halt instructions to trigger a dump, or dump a snapshot of a running PRU. Of course I'm using a NFS mounted file system so that I quickly can edit, (cross)compile and run my code. -- Bas > > -m > >> -- Bas >> >>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >>> Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: >>> INSIGHTS What's next for parallel hardware, programming and related areas? >>> Interviews and blogs by thought leaders keep you ahead of the curve. >>> http://goparallel.sourceforge.net >>> _______________________________________________ >>> Emc-developers mailing list >>> Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net >>> https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: > VERIFY Test and improve your parallel project with help from experts > and peers. http://goparallel.sourceforge.net > _______________________________________________ > Emc-developers mailing list > Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep yourself connected to Go Parallel: VERIFY Test and improve your parallel project with help from experts and peers. http://goparallel.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
