Re: [Tinyos-help] semaphore and tossim
Any sort of waiting is a bad idea in TOS because it is
non-pre-emptive. There is a threads implementation, of
which I know nothing, that might provide sync primitives
if you insist on doing it the way you describe.
However the pattern you probably want is fairly standard:
task1()
{
someMessage.send()
}
someMessage.sendDone()
{
// did it go out ok?
}
mymessage.receive()
{
post task2();
}
task2()
{
// continue from here
}
Hopefully you can interpret my shorthand sketch

[Tinyos-help] MultihopOscilloscope does not seem to update interval
Hi all, Does MultihopOscilloscope take care of messages sent from the gui over the serial to update sampling frequency as (Basestation + Oscilloscope) does? I do not see SerialActiveMessageC.Receive being connected anywhere. Am I missing something? Is the following setup correct? Setup: mote 1: MultihopOscilloscope with ID = 0, connected to mib510 mote 2,3: MultihopOscilloscope with IDs = 2,3 The README looks similar to Oscilloscope, so I thought it should have similar behavior (except that its using ctp).

[Tinyos-help] how to measure code execution time
Hi everyone, How can I measure the time for a snippet of code (e.g., a function call foo), either synchronous or asynchronous, to execute? A straight forward way can be: start_time = Call LocalTime.get(); foo(); end_time = call LocalTime.get(); (end_time - start_time) is regarded as the execution time of function call foo(). However, asynchronous code can preempt foo() during its execution, thus (end_time - start_time) may be overestimation of foo()'s actual execution time. An alternative can be something like the following: disable interrupt; start_time = Call LocalTime.get(); foo(); end_time = call LocalTime.get(); enable interrupt; However, this can be problematic also if some critical interrupts (e.g., packet reception) occur when the interrupt is disabled. Can anyone have some idea on how execution time can be measured without the above issues? Any help is appreciated. -- -Xiaohui Liu ___ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@millennium.berkeley.edu https://www.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
[Tinyos-help] avr-gcc error during 'make' - TinyOS 2.1.1, Ubuntu 9.10
Hello everyone, I am using TinyOS 2.1.1 on Ubuntu 9.10. I am faced with the following error when I type in the 'make' command: *kushal@Home:/opt/tinyos-2.1.1/apps/Thesis/FiniteSampleProcessor$ make micaz * *mkdir -p build/micaz* *mig java -target=micaz -DIDENT_APPNAME=\"VoltageMonitorS\" -DIDENT_USERNAME=\"kushal\" -DIDENT_HOSTNAME=\"Home\" -DIDENT_USERHASH=0x99f51698L -DIDENT_TIMESTAMP=0x4e421ce1L -DIDENT_UIDHASH=0x5622b5baL -java-classname=VoltageMonitorStreamMsg VoltageMonitorStream.h VoltageMonitorStreamMsg -o VoltageMonitorStreamMsg.java* *avr-gcc: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.11' not found (required by avr-gcc)* *failed to parse message file VoltageMonitorStream.h* *make: *** [VoltageMonitorStreamMsg.java] Error 1* Everything was going smoothly until a couple of hours ago when I installed the updates for the following: *Commit Log for Tue Aug 9 17:12:21 2011* * * *Upgraded the following packages:* *avr-binutils-tinyos (2.17-20080806) to 2.17-20110726* *avr-gcc-tinyos (4.1.2-20080806) to 4.1.2-20110803* *avr-libc-tinyos (1.4.7-20080806) to 1.6.7-20110726* *avrdude-tinyos (5.4-20080806) to 5.10-20110802* Can somebody please enlighten me as to why avr-gcc is being used to compile, as opposed to avr-gcc-tinyos? I thought about installing avr-gcc but it indicates that the tinyos packages will have to be removed and I am not sure that that is the correct thing to do. Also, is there any way I can download the GLIBC_2.11 in question? I'm trying not to uninstall and reinstall TinyOS here, is there any other way?

[Tinyos-help] Problem with MSP430F2617 and TestSeri
Hi, I created a mote using a MSP430F2617 microcontroller with libraries of MSP430X under TinyOS 2.1, which compiling with the msp430-gcc( version 3.2.3) of the mspgcc. I made several changes in Ubuntu and TinyOS operating systems. This mote the program through a USB port using BSL pins, I used the pins VCC, GND, RST #, TCK, and RX_BSL TX_BSL (P1.1 and P2.2) of the microcontroller. With this configuration using the tos-bsl I could program the micro with applications like Blink which makes it the right way. I've also tried to interrupt the execution by pressing a button and done right. When I run the application TestSerial not done correctly, I have another mote which made by me if it does well but not the last two motes and all hardware configuration are identical in all cases. In all the motes I have another USB port to run the application using the pins VCC, GND, TX_Uart0 and RX_Uart (Pins 29 and 40 of the MSP430F2617 64-pin). I have to indicate that the mote that works well all the time I tried it with Code Composer from Texas so do not know if some registers like those were modified . Using a tool like Siow (serial) I got the following results: Mote good: 7E 45 00 FF FF 00 00 08 00 89 00 09 00 00 00 00 00 00 81 91 7E ... Motes incorrect: FE C5 00 FF FF 00 00 08 00 09 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 00 E0 69 FE ... The speed with which I use is 115200 but I have also tried other speeds. I think it's a problem of synchronizing clocks using the UART USC but I'm not sure, Could someone help me? Thank you very much! ___ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@millennium.berkeley.edu https://www.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
