It will (reach field) get to 377 if all is well.  This may also fail

[beagleboard] StarterWare-like stuff for BB AI available?

2019-10-24 Thread Mike Maikaefer
Hi,

I'm currently using the BBB with some extensive bare-metal software which 
bases on StarterWare. Now the BB AI looks very interesting for me and I 
would like to switch over with this software to the new platform.

I'm absolutely aware of the fact that a lot of things would have to be done 
as not only the two cores have to be handled completely different.

But my questions is: is there something like StarterWare/a board support 
package available which gives the possibility to directly program the BB AI 
in a similar low-level way like the BBB?

Thanks!

@Paul - Would you be able to take a close up picture of the backside  
solder points of the serial debug connector (3 pin next to USB C)? 

My AI was overheating too until it stopped booting all together. I was 
looking to monitor serial as I applied power and that is when I noticed 
what appeared to be an unclean solder point...its not shorted there is a 
99kOhm resistance between the two points.

2019-03-22 Thread mike . farbarik
Demonstrate how to perform a sustained transfer from (an FPGA) FIFO to the 
BBB DDR3 using GPMC and PRU0.  First part of the How-To uses CCS8 and the 
JTAG interface to run code on the CortexA8 and PRU0.  Performance 
demonstrated is 8MB/s (32bit words, 2000K transfers per second) . The 
second part of the How-to documents how the design was migrated to a Debian 
OS for integration into a usable product.

[beagleboard] UART "callibration"?

2019-03-07 Thread Mike Brandon
While I am likely getting in way over my head, are there any settings that 
can be modified on a BeagleBone black as it relates to the UART oscillator? 
I have seen some reference to the specification of the AM335x regarding:

The UART modules each have a 48MHz clock to generate their timing. They can 
be configured in one of two modes: UART 16x and UART 13x, in which that 
clock is divided by 16 and 13, respectively.

I am still trying to get an application I wrote to communicate with a 3rd 
party controller and grasping at straws at this point.I just can't figure 
out why everything works fine when I go through /ttyUSB0 (using a 
USB-serial adapter), but when I try to utilize the /tty04 UART, I can't 
communicate.

Without drowning this thread with every little thing I have done, I have 
come to the following conclusions:

1) My application works because I can confirm it's functionality when 
connected via USB-serial adapter
2) My UART circuit (have tried with a MAX3232 and a MAX232) works because I 
can open up minicom and do a loopback test successfully. I have also 
communicated from mt BB to a Windows PC at the same baud rate that I am 
attempting to use with my application, so based on the fact that the manual 
communication between BB and PC was successful, I feel confident that my 
UART circuit is ok.
3) Currently I have a logic analyzer hooked up and I am looking at the data 
I am transmitting from my BB. The applicatio I use with the analyzer 
decodes the protocol and the data I am seeing from my circuit is the data I 
am expecting to see.

This snapshot is from the USB-serial connection transmission:

[beagleboard] BBB Uart Signal Question

2019-02-25 Thread Mike Brandon
Hi,

TL;DR: What kind of signal is transmitted straight out of UART TX? 

I am beating my head against a wall with a circuit I have been designing 
related to UART. I know my app works as I can use a USB-to-Serial adapter 
connected to beaglebone's USB0 and my app performs as expected. When I 
attempt to use UART4, via a MAX3232 chip, the app does not communicate as 
expected. Prior to placing the MAX3232 chip in my circuit, I remember 
having unsuccessful attempts with my app as well, leading me to believe 
that I needed to convert the signal coming out of the UART with the 3232 
chip.

The device I am communicating with also has a 3232 chip onboard that my 
signal is going through. I a thinking I am misunderstanding the signal 
being produced by the UART4. I know I have at some point confused what 
results I was obtaining when I had the circuit breadboarded and was testing 
things out. So I think I am just needing to start fresh and do some better 
documenting of my tests going forward.

However, at this current point in time, I do know my MAX3232 circuit works 
as I have tested by looping the RX/TX lines on the other side and I can 
send/receive in minicom on the BBB. I also communicated with another PC via 
the circuit successfully. In that setup, the BBB was sending through the 
MAX3232 which the RX/TX output was connected to a USB-to-serial adapter 
that was connected via USB to a windows PC.

I have also a better documented thread of the issue here, for 
reference: https://forum.allaboutcircuits.com/threads/max3232-to-max3232.156598/

At this point, looking at my circuit and the device I am attempting to 
communicate with, I believe I am sending a TTL signal to the device 
connection which is expecting a RS232 signal. 

Mainly I am just trying to understand what kind of signal is transmitting 
out of the UART TX, is it TTL or RS232? I did look at the BBB system ref. 
manual but did not see data related to this.

Mike

Thanks for the help.  The base issue appears to be that compressed packages 
(.lz4) do not work at this time.  Replacing them with uncompressed packages 
works.  Check in rm /var/lib/apt/lists to see if the packages are .gz or 
.lz4.  Remove them in either case and follow the instructions to finish the 
job.  Very satisfying now that it works.

How is UART4 enabled on beaglebone black, uname_r=4.4.113-ti-r149

Would I use

cape_enable=bone_capemgr.enable_partno=BB-UART4

in uEnv.txt?

Re: [beagleboard] Network IP address assignments

2018-12-05 Thread Mike Brandon
In my limited experience, I ran into a lot of issues trying to modify the
network settings as you are running into. I *believe* that the network
settings are being controlled by conman. So I added to /
etc/connman/main.conf the following:

NetworkInterfaceBlacklist=SoftAp0,usb0,usb1,{0},can0,can1

Then I was able to control network settings as expected in
/etc/network/interfacesalthough I did end up installing dhcpcd and
am now utilizing that to control my network although I don't think I
have worked out all of the kinks. BTW I am running Debian 8.7 IoT
image.

Re: [beagleboard] Beaglebone Black won't boot when gpio connections made

2018-11-30 Thread Mike Brandon
Actually, one more question before I go cry myself to sleep...

Considering I will want to make similar connections on P8 in the future... 
can I use a device like this to isolate the boot pins at boot?

Gerald,

Thanks for pointing me to that information but I don't see where I am 
utilizing one of the 16 boot pins on the expansion header.

Also, my external device that is connected to the GPIO listed above is not 
powered up at boot.

Am I missing another key point in the reference you pointed me to?

[beagleboard] Beaglebone Black won't boot when gpio connections made

2018-11-30 Thread Mike Brandon
I have a device plugged in via GPIO to the following gpio pins:

48
49
115
117

If my device is connected at boot, the BB will not boot.

I am booting from eMMC. Any idea why this is occurring? I am using the 
attached custom overlay which is essentially the univ-emmc overlay with 
some modifications on GPIOs not listed above.

[beagleboard] Re: GPIO default pin level

2018-11-24 Thread Mike Brandon
I have made progress on this and have a .dtbo that I can load manually and 
set all of my gpio in the desired state I am looking for.

My issue now is getting this overlay to load on boot. Here is my uEnv.txt:

uname_r=4.4.113-ti-r149

enable_uboot_overlays=1
dtb_overlay=/lib/firmware/univ-emmc-smb-00A0.dtbo
disable_uboot_overlay_video=1
disable_uboot_overlay_audio=1
disable_uboot_overlay_wireless=1

cmdline=coherent_pool=1M net.ifnames=0 quiet cape_universal=enable


I can manually load the overlay by:

root@beaglebone:/lib/firmware# echo univ-emmc-smb > $SLOTS

Bootloader version:

bootloader:[microSD-(push-button)]:[/dev/mmcblk0]:[U-Boot 
2018.09-2-gd5b4c4b656]:[location: dd MBR]

What am I missing?

[beagleboard] GPIO default pin level

2018-11-23 Thread Mike Brandon
I have been spending some time trying to understand device tree overlays. 
Currently my uEnv.txt is configured so that:

##BeagleBone Black: HDMI (Audio/Video) disabled:
dtb=am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb


cat /sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots
 0: PF  -1
 1: PF  -1
 2: PF  -1
 3: PF  -1
 4: P-O-L-   0 Override Board Name,00A0,Override Manuf,univ-emmc


I would like to keep the GPIOs that default as PIN_OUTPUT_PULLUP from doing 
so, and would prefer them to pulldown.

What is the best way to go about doing that?

[beagleboard] DHCPCD5 on BegaleBone Black

2018-11-20 Thread Mike Brandon
Long story short, I am refactoring an application I had originally written 
for Raspbian. One of the features is the ability to modify the devices 
network settings (either use DHCP or set a static IP).

When refactoring this for the Begalebone, I was running into weird issues 
that I assume were happening because of conman. After many hours I stumbled 
into installing DHCPCD5.

I then added eth0 to  NetworkInterfaceBlacklist in /etc/conman/main.conf

I modified /etc/network/interfaces to be 

# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)

# Please note that this file is written to be used with dhcpcd
# For static IP, consult /etc/dhcpcd.conf and 'man dhcpcd.conf'

# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

Then, programatically, I was able to switch between dhcp and static 
settings as I expected with my application.

I then noticed in /var/log/syslog that I was getting a *TON* of logged 
messages related to can0 and can1. 

I added can0 and can1 to conman/main.conf NetworkInterfaceBlacklist

I added denyinterfaces can0 can1 in /etc/dhcpcd.conf

I thought I had this resolved after the two steems above but it seems that 
is not the case.

What else can I do to keep this behavior from occurring? The issue is 
causing a noticeable lag when SSH'ed into my beaglebone or using the web 
interface I am running on it. Not to mention the file space it is consuming.

If DHCPCD is not a viable candidate, how can I get more predictable 
behavior out of conman? (Issues I was running into included changing 
settings in /network/interfaces did not alsways respond as expected, issues 
with configuring a fallback static IP when DHCP failed, etc.)

BTW I am running the Debian 8.7 IoT image (need it in order to run mongodb 
on the beaglebone)

Hi,

according to the schematics there is a RAM-module with 4 GByte available on

Re: [beagleboard] Where are the hardware data / component placement list?

2018-05-16 Thread Mike Maikaefer
I afraid I have to come back to this: sure this is the latest version of
the layout? It makes use of the Alps SCHA5B0200 microSD card connector
which is discontinued and which does not seem to have a compatible
replacement!?

[beagleboard] Where are the hardware data / component placement list?

2018-05-15 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

I wonder if the complete hardware data for the BBB are available somewhere: 
I found some Gerber files defining the PCB, a BOM defining the used 
components but I did not found a CPL that describes which component has to 
be placed at which position.

So...aren't these data open and available for free?

Thanks!

Mike

it’s been a while, but I think the issue was resolved with a reboot of the 
host, which is a macbook. I may have updated OSX as well.
Good luck!

[beagleboard] interfacing the Sterling LWB module to the BeagleBone Black

2018-02-03 Thread Mike Wood
We are developing a new product around the BeagleBone Black that uses the 
Sterling LWB Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module.  LSR supplies some rather convoluted 
information on their website to build the drivers for this product in a 
Linux environment.  Following their steps yields results completely 
different from their guidance.  Has anyone ever attempted to integrate this 
radio into a BeagleBone Black project? If so did you get it to work and how 
did you accomplish it?

Re: [beagleboard] BeagleBone Black shortage

2018-02-02 Thread mike . maikaefer
Thanks for your feedback.

Mouse unfortunately is not an option, although it is a German company, 
their webshop does not allow me to order BBBs when they have to be shipped 
to Germany due to some exports restrictions :-D

Same works well for all other suppliers...so maybe this is the reason they 
have some BBBs left since all German customers can't buy at Mouser :-)

[beagleboard] BeagleBone Black shortage

2018-02-01 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

for some months we can see a BBB-shortage which meanwhile becomes dramatic. 
Farnell can ship BBBs earliest end of February (but only a few thousands) 
and the prices have risen from ~50 Euro to more than 90 Euro at some 
distributors.

Anybody an idea what's going on here? Has the BBB reached the end of it's 
life?

Mike

[beagleboard] New BeagleBone revision with OSD335x SiP?

2018-01-05 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

are there any plans to have a fully pin-compatible BeagleBone Black which 
makes use of the OSD335x SIP? The andvantages are obvious, this could lower 
the price of the BBB nameably.

Have you tried to submit a patch? The project itself seems to be alive, 
last change was done only one month 
ago: https://sourceforge.net/p/starterwarefree/code/ci/master/tree/

And this seems to be the maintainer of the

So it could look like this!? External ground is directly connected to GNDA 
and the relation between the resistors is equal to the relation of the 
voltages to apply at each!? How about the exact resistor values - 18 kOhm 
and 10 kOhm would be the same from relation, but which one should I use 
really? Thanks :-)

[beagleboard] Use analogue inputs with 5 or 10 V signal

2017-12-20 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

this is somewhat a noob-question, but my skills in analogue hardware are 
limited.

The BeagleBones (and variants) come with six analogue inputs which each 
have a separate ground line GNDA and also a separate power supply VADC.

My questions here: how can I connect an external signal with 0..5V or 
0..10V to these inputs in order to read their analogue value?

And how about GNDA, has it to be separated from normal GND?

Thanks!

Mike

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Where are VDD and SYS_RESETn?

2017-12-12 Thread mike . maikaefer
I soldered the power-wires of an USB-cable to P1/pin 1 and P1/pin 16. So 
USB was not used at all in this scenario.

Regarding SYS_RESETn: I found a signal named RESET_OUT at P2/pin 26 - could 
this the equivalent to SYS_RESETn? Unfortunately I have no idea how to 
measure if it could be it or not...

[beagleboard] Re: Where are VDD and SYS_RESETn?

2017-12-11 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hello Graham,

thanks for your feedback.

I tried running PocketBeagle from Vin/pin1 and it worked smoothly here for 
more than 13 hours. It was powered via 5V that came from a USB connector.

But I was running a bare metal application with no Linux involved. So may 
be there is a bug rather in the Linux system you are using than in the 
hardware?

I remember the PMIC of the BeagleBone could be accessed from software, 
watchdog with some illegal parameters would be a candidate too (OK, 
watchdog would not explain why the power pin has an influence...).

With kind regards

Mike

I'm not quite sure but isn't P1/7 the same as VDD on the BBB? In this case 
you definitely shouldn't use P1/1 for powering the board...

According to the (incredibly small) manual of the Octavo SoC I changed the 
initialisation of the DDR and EMIF registers - but this does not seem to be 
everything which is necessary.

Now with these register settings my MLO successfully loads the main 
application into the DDR RAM but when the SoC jumps to the start adress of 
it, it stalls. So it seems there is still a problem with the RAM 
initialisation. Either writing the application to the RAM does not work or 
execution of the loaded application is not possible.

What I can see at the moment: the BBB initialisation of the RAM contains a 
lot more than shown in the Octavo manual, there are a lot of idle and 
shut-down states set which are not mentioned in Octavo manual.

So...any idea what else is different in initialisation of BBB and 
PocketBeagle? Are these additional idle/shut-down register settings needed 
too?

Thanks!

[beagleboard] Low level initialisation steps?

2017-11-27 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

I'm currently try to run a bare metal application which works fine on the 
BBB on my new PocketBeagle. MLO bootloader works as expected, it loads the 
main application image to addres 0x8000. But when it jumps to this 
address to execute the main application, the whole board stalls.

This lets me think some of the basic hardware initialisations done by the 
bootloader do fit for BBB, but not for PocketBeagle.

So my question: are there some fundamental differences between both? Does 
the Octavo-internal RAM need a different timing than the one on BBB? If 
yes: what exactly is different? Or what else needs to be low-level 
initialised in a different way?

Thanks!

Mike

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Boot bare metal application - MLO no longer used?

2017-11-27 Thread mike . maikaefer
OK, I got it: it seems, the Octavo-SoC does NOT support MLO as file on the 
FatSF partition. Writing it into the forst section of the SD card solved 
the problem, now the MLO is found and loaded.

But this does not seem to be the problem, this ""-sequence means, 
the SoC does not find the MLO anywhere! So although it is available on the 
FatFS partition of the microSD card, it isn't loaded.

OK, short update: the debug header works, I get some data at UART0. But 
there nothing else than CCC is printed, which means the SoC does not

[beagleboard] Boot bare metal application - MLO no longer used?

2017-11-25 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

I'm running a bare metal software on my BBB. It is started via a special 
boot-application, a program named "MLO" located on eMMC card which then 
itself starts my application from microSD card. This is one boot option of 
the AM3358 and used by default.

Now I tried do to the same with the PocketBeagle, in this case with MLO and 
my application both on the microSD card - unfortunately it does not work, 
the application is not started.

My question: is there something fundamental different with the Octavo SoC? 
And is there a serial debug interface available too, similar to the one 
from the BBB where I can see some messages printed to serial console on 
boot?

Thanks!

Check out StarterWare from TI (there is also a FreeStarterWare project 
available on sf.net which contains a lot of bugfixes and feature 
enhancements TI never managed to publish). It contains TCP/IP stack, USB 
stack, functions to read/write FatFS on SD-card and many things more - all 
as bare metal without the need to use an operating system and with a lot of 
useful examples.

[beagleboard] PocketBeagle detailed pinout with pinmux

2017-11-10 Thread mike . maikaefer
In case somebody is interested in this: attached to my mail you can find a 
detailed pinout of the PocketBeagle expansion header.

This is assembled out of the information of AM3358 TRM and the image given 
in PocketBone GIT repository. It contains all pins including their 
pinmuxable functions (including also all PRU connections)

Please note: this is not yet verified against the real world hardware yet, 
so handle with care.

There is some shared memory available where both, PRU and main core have 
access to. Since PRU has the priority for accessing this ram, you can use 
it for a ringbuffer with defined timing which also can be read from the 
main core.

How about the pin-multiplexing of your two PRU-pins? Are they really 
enabled as PRU in/outputs or are they still mapped to some other functions 
of the main core?

This seems to be a bad idea in general. For me it looks like you waste 
computing power in PRU1 to retrieve an information PRU0 already has. Can't 
you do both operations on one single PRU? Or use an EHRPWM-output to 
generate the clock in order to not to waste a complete PRU for such a 
stupid task?

[beagleboard] PocketBeagle / BBB expansion connector pin assignment

2017-11-09 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

I'm currently evaluating if an existing BBB-design can be used on the new 
PocketBeagle but have some troubles assigning the different signals on 
connector to each other.

I know the BBB Expansion Header pinout 
from https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:Cape_Expansion_Headers and already 
found some similar for the PocketBeagle 
at 
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/beagleboard/pocketbeagle/images/PocketBeagle_pinout.png

I could identify some of the signals but have troubles with the GPIOs. For 
BBB they are named GPIOb_p where "b" is the GPIO-"bank" and "p" then pin 
number. For the PocketBeagle they are just numbered in range 2..117.

So my question: is there an assignment between these pin numbers available 
where one can find out which PocketBeagle GPIOs belong to which AM3358 GPIO 
signals?

Thanks!

[beagleboard] BeagleBone Black availability

2017-11-08 Thread mike . maikaefer
Hi,

during last month I noticed the availability of the BBB is not as good as 
it has been before. Farnell/element14 has more and more increasing lead 
times, currently their stock is empty and they expect next batch earliest 
in more than one month. Circuitco itself does not seem to produce any BBBs.

So: is this board going to die? Is it discontinued because of all these 
strange clones which are out there meanwhile (BBB Wireless, BBB Industrial, 
...)?

Thanks

Mike

[beagleboard] Re: My overlay can't find clk_mcasp0

2017-08-09 Thread Mike Davis
I have the same issue.
I am running kernel debian with kernel 4.4.52-bone16
I pulled down RobertCNelson's dtb-rebuilder from 
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/dtb-rebuilder 
,
 
branch 4.4.x and rebuilt all the arm dtbs and installed them.
Then added then updated my *base* dtb, which 
is am335x-boneblack-emmc-overlay.dtb with the clock definitions 
in am335x-boneblack-audio.dts, 
as per 
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/dtb-rebuilder/blob/4.1-ti/src/arm/am335x-boneblack-audio.dts#L17-L28
 


Reboot, then install the audio: sudo sh -c "echo BB-BONE-AUDI-02 > 
/sys/devices/platform/bone_capemgr/slots"

All seems ok in dmesg:

[beagleboard] FrSky Receivers

2017-07-11 Thread mike
Has anyone had any luck connecting non DSM2 / DSMX up to the Beagle Bone 
Blue?

I have FrSky Taranis X9D Plus ACCST Radio and D4R-ii Receiver 
(http://www.getfpv.com/frsky-d4r-ii-4ch-2-4ghz-accst-receiver-w-telemetry.html) 
lying around.  

I was wondering if they would be compatible with the DMS2/DMX port on the 
board or another port on the board.  Since the board itself does not have a 
built in receiver (AFAIK) and both receivers output CPPM - I would think 
its more or less agnostic to the receiver.  

Lastly, if not supported, I would imagine it's not a far leap to support 
communicating with the D4R-ii (aka just software at that point).  

Thanks in advance.
Cheers.
... Mike

[beagleboard] Failed to bring up usb0

Hello all,
My usb0 interface has suddenly stopped working and will not start properly.
Things were working well but after a power-off and reboot via SW2, usb0 no

Luckily I have a serial port adapter attached to the BBB J1. Otherwise I 
would be dead since I can no longer ssh into BBB from the host pc.

i have tried to install them and then type "monodevelop" or "eclipse" 
in the command line and nothing happened.


Any one knows how to do this? (if possible)

My goal is to write multiple file projects in C++ and i want the 
comfort of the GUI of the IDE.


Thanks!
Dror.

Simple concept...

ssh -X  

Running eclipse on the BBB would be painful IMHO.  Setup a shared area 
via nfs, samba, etc. and run your IDE locally.  Eclipse and be setup to 
handle this (through FUSE I believe) but it's a somewhat lengthy 
process.  Google it, examples are out there, perhaps a bit dated.

Re: [beagleboard] Ubuntu supporting BBBW's onboard Wifi

2017-02-06 Thread Mike Reynolds

Hi Robert,
Your new Ubuntu image does include connman.  However connmanctl command 
"scan wifi" reports "Error /net/connman/technology/wifi: No carrier".

Running iw and ifconfig shows the wifi is running as an access point - 
which appears to be the default BBBW startup configuration.

It appears that although connman is present it isn't talking to the 
underlying wifi services.  That's  just a newbie guess!  Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Mike.

Hi all,
I have an Ubuntu 14.06 image which runs on the BBBW.  Unsurprisingly it 
does not setup the BBBW's onboard Wifi/Bluetooth.  Is there an Ubuntu image 
supporting the BBBW's onboard WiFi?  Alternately are there instructions on 
installation of the necessary software/drivers?
Cheers,

[beagleboard] writing (creating) /sys/kernel/debug/omap_mux/gpmc_ad6 - no such file or directory

2016-09-09 Thread Mike C
Hi:

Well that's the idea here. The file needs to be created, but

open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT)

just changes the error to one of permission. I'm logged in as root, the 
compiled program is owned by root and runs as root per ps aux - the whole 
friggin' world is root and I demand my godlike powers over this thing and 
all the little roots.

which is a 

Beaglebone Black rev C (? coupla month old - seems to be a rev C, IIRC)

oh... debian latest - not sure if it came with Angstrom, or if I want to 
change. I flashed debian when I got it.

I don't want a board that "MIGHT" work with some other board that someone 
else made and where the code "MIGHT" work.

I've yet to find any solution to bit banging GPIO yet this code seems to 
make sense and agrees with other documentation.

https://github.com/derekmolloy/beaglebone

except his TestApplication gives the same error.

Same with nRF wireless radios. Supposed to be able to configure CE and CS 
but it doesn't happen.

Anyone know how to really work GPIO or is BBB just another useless brick?

Thanks in Advance

Mike

Re: [beagleboard] BBGW - wlcore crashes during boot with USB audio card installed

2016-08-27 Thread Mike Erdahl
Sorry for the delay, I didn't get a notification of your posting.

I believe the real problem has been found, and it is unrelated to USB audio.

My system was configured to launch the AlexaBeagleBone project 
automatically on boot as a service.  The AlexaBeagleBone service attempts 
to connect to Amazon immediately, which is a problem, because the wireless 
modules does not have an IP address yet.

In the case where I remove the USB audio, the AlexaBeagleBone service fails 
to launch, because it cannot open the audio card.

I realized all this because I'm having another similar issue where wlcore 
crashes when I try to launch the OpenSprinkler firmware during boot.  I've 
tried creating a systemd service to wait for connman to setup wifi, but so 
far no luck...

If anyone knows how to create a proper systemd script that waits for 
connman to establish a wifi connection, I'd be pretty happy :)

For now I'll try to accomplish the same in a separate script.

Regards,
Mike

Testing with a powered USB 2.0 hub did not change the behavior,

Hi Robert,

Thank you for the suggestions!

Unfortunately updating the kernel did not fix the issue- pretty much the 
same backtraces.

I was thinking along the lines of getting a powered USB hub as well.

Interestingly, on the failed case, removing the USB audio card, then 
performing a warm reset is not enough- I must cold boot for wlcore to come 
up successfully again.

I will track down a powered hub and report back.

Regards,
Mike

[beagleboard] BBGW - wlcore crashes during boot with USB audio card installed

2016-07-20 Thread Mike Erdahl
Hi,

I'm working on a project that requires audio input/ output, so using a 
C-Media chipset based solution from Sabrent.

With the latest BB.org kernel/ filesystem (Kernel 4.4.9, Debian 8.4), 
wlcore driver crashes during kernel boot if my USB audio card is installed. 
 Booting without the card installed, then installing after the kernel seems 
to always work fine (WiFi throughput is normal, USB audio in/ out works as 
expected).

Occasionally I can poweroff, then back on, without removing USB audio card, 
and wlcore is happy.  I would say this occurs < 10%.

Below are snippets of my kernel logs in good vs bad case:

debian@beaglebone:~$ uname -a

There is no ntpdate service on the Wheezy, or I would simply disable it.
Thanks,

Re: [beagleboard] connman issues on latest Debian 8.4 release?

Hi Robert,

Thanks a bunch!

I appreciate your quick response- sorry if this was posted somewhere 
already.  I did not know tethering would cause this, and probably never 
would have tried disabling it :)

[beagleboard] connman issues on latest Debian 8.4 release?

2016-05-18 Thread Mike Erdahl

Accidentally posted this on the beaglebone google group... annoying.

connman works just fine for my three different RTL81xx based USB WIFI 
adapters on the Debian Jessie 8.3 bb.org release, but wifi seems dead on 
the Debian Jessie 8.4 bb.org release (wifi scan either hangs, or does not 
find anything).  Same behavior on BeagleBone Black and Green, powered with 
external bricks.

I run on both 8.3 and 8.4:

$ sudo su
# connmanctl
connmanctl> enable wifi
connmanctl> scan wifi
connmanctl> services

At this point, I either see my AP (Jessie 8.3), or nothing (Jessie 8.4)

Checking 'technologies' on both releases does show WiFi is present, and 
powered.

Is there any config magic required before using connman with Debian 8.4 
bb.org release?  Unfortunately I overwrote my SD card before capturing the 
kernel log, but it seemed like the rtl firmware was loading fine, with no 
errors being reported.

Regards,
Mike

Re: [beagleboard] Hardware watchdog for BBB

You only need to ping one ip address. Your internet gateway IP. e.g. 
your first hop outside of your local network.
The need to ping an Internet host just adds to the requirements. Pinging 
your local router IP would meet the requirement of whether the BBB 
interface is up.  Adding Internet connectivity just added more complexity.

/--- Graham/

I'm not 100% sure, but the test Windows does is not always correct. 
Sometimes the icon shows not connected, when in fact as soon as you 
try to surf something on the web, it goes to the working icon . . .


My guess is that it does some simple DNS tests, and then after a while 
it gives up checking.

@Graham,

What I propose is that you do not need an Ethernet Micro
connected to the BBB. Instead, you have the BBB ping the
outside world once every set time frame, and it a ping comes
back unreachable after say 5-10 minutes. You just stop
"kicking the dog". Which does present a potential problem that
Your internet connection may just be down. But a remote system
that reboots once every 5-10 minutes because the internet
connection is down is not something I'd personally see as a
bad thing. After all you're unable to connect to the system
anyway.
