How to make CMEM cacheable on ARM side on DM6446?

2008-01-23 Thread Kumar Brajbhushan
All, I am trying to profile a component on ARM side of DM6446. VISA_Create allocates memory for this component from CMEM area which is not cached on ARM side. Because of this there is huge increase in the time taken for processing. Is there a way to cache this CMEM on ARM side as well? Or to

We do something BEFORE your code: //- Clear reserved register 0x01C41A20 to prevent hangup on PTSTAT testing. //(Errata SPRUZ241D Advisory 1.3.22) PSC-MDCTL[16] = 0; //- Put the C64x+ Core into reset (if it's on) PSC-MDCTL[39] = (~0x0100); // ask reset

BJ, The link down message is normal, coming from the DM9000A Ethernet driver, before actually trying out the link negotiation. You should then see a link up message once the negotiation is complete. eth0: link down Sending DHCP requests ., OK IP-Config: Got DHCP answer from 255.255.255.255, my

Hi David, Thanks for the advice. I already set PINMUX0.RGB666 register in video driver (it was one of the first things that I did actually), but there are way to many other stuff that needs to be set. Right now, I'm trying to reduce the clock to 6,75MHz. If anyone had the similar experience,

Stephen, The package was built for the latest Montavista kernel on the DM6446 DVEVM. Some additional work may be needed to port this to the latest community open source Linux kernel for DaVinci. Which OS version are you using? Thanks for pointing out the difference in the filename - I'll

Hi, The problem is that cross-compiling with autotools avoids to run certain test because it cannot detect the environment settings for the target platform. Many embedded distributions avoid such problems by running the compilation inside a emulated ARM machine (which can be slow). To

Can you help us understand your usage a little better (and which version of CE you're using)? VISA_create() is an SPI - System Programming Interface - used by algorithm providers that are integrating non-xDM algorithms into the Codec Engine environment. Is that what you're trying to do? And

Hi all, how do you modify the davincifb driver to allow sending RGB565 data to the driver, thereby bypassing the YCbCr to RGB color space conversion by the VPBE? I am using the DM6446 DVEVM, with a digital LCD connected, and using the decode_hd demos. Demo works fine in the standard mode where

Chris, Thanks a lot! I am using CE 2.0, XDC_3_00_2, bios_5_31_08 for a non-VISA component. I have written stubs/skeletons for this component based on example one available for video component. Yes, I am trying to run the component from ARM side as local. As compared to the case when the

Davinci supports 4 hardawre planes, out of which 2 are OSD( supoprt RGB565 graphics) and the other two support YCbCr data. If you want to write RGB data to the driver you can use either OSD0 or OSD1 instead of the Video planes. This could be done by using /fb0 and /fb2 instead of /fb1 or /fb3.

There is a config param in the new ti.sdo.ce.alg.Settings module, very poorly documented in CE 2.00, but we'll have better docs in future releases. The config param you care about is .useCache, by default it's false, but you can set it to true in your app's .cfg script. Something like:

Chris, Thanks again. It does work. :) Is it possible to associate this setting at algorithm level only? That is algo A has cache enabled and B does not and both run in the same process. How do you associate this setting with any particular process? Please elaborate. I had some more queries in
