RE: [ECOS] ixp42x NPE networking build issue

[sumanth]

HI Jerzy and Mark,
 
             This is sumanth , i have compiled the source of ecos what intel gives ,but i am short falling of one header file which i could'nt get in the intel site, can you please give us the link from where we can get the header file
devs_eth_intel_npe.h
 
 
Thanks & regards,
Sumanth.

This file is generated during the build. It is not part of the sources.
If you properly configure things to include the NPE packages, that
file will get generated in <builddir>/install/include/pkgconf.

Hi Mark,

             Thanks for your reply, I am able to build the Redboot Image but the problem is i am unable to build the default image for the grg from ui. it is showing following errors

                           I am thinking of default  image because i want attach other applications to the default image while running npe also, can you please sugesst how to get the macros of the header.

Thanks & regards,

Hi Mark & Jerzy,
                          I am trying to build the ram based image with npe support, now i am able to suceed by compiling the redboot related acess library which intel supplies, but when i call the api which starts the downloading of microcode and start functioning
                   ixNpeDlNpeInitAndStart(IX_NPEDL_NPEIMAGE_NPEB_ETH);
he show the error message as [warning] Warning: the NPE B component you specified does not exist
he is searching the microcode for NPE B at location 0x01000200 ,where that Macro was defined to.
But since i compiled this NPE B microcode is at different location. are there any compiler options such that we can specify the binary should be loaded at specific location ?
  are there any other mechanism to locate the microcode for NPE B and download that into npe.

Thanks for your earlier repley, with that only i could proceed upto here.

Thanks & regards,
Sumanth.

Are you sure? I thought those macros (IX_NPEDL_NPEIMAGE_NPEB_ETH et al)
were bitfields indicating the functionality of the microcode, not the
microcode's address. The CSR library code looks for the microcode in
the IxNpeMicrocode_array[] array.

HI Mark,
               You are correct, it is the array where the microcode is there, Now am able to analyze that i am failing at the regisering the device in the ecos cyg_netdevtab_entry , am unable to create the entry to the device , any pointers in this case.
Thanks for your guidence

Thanks & regards,
Sumanth.

The entry is created at build time at the bottom of if_npe.c, but only
for those NPEs which are configured to be used. The platform specific
.inl file is used to tell the generic if_npe.c code which ports to use.
For instance, devs/eth/arm/ixdp425/cur/include/ixdp425_npe.inl has:

  ...
#define CYGSEM_INTEL_NPE_USE_ETH0
#define CYGNUM_ETH0_ETH_ID    IX_ETH_PORT_1
#define CYGNUM_ETH0_PHY_NO    0
 ...
#define CYGSEM_INTEL_NPE_USE_ETH1
#define CYGNUM_ETH1_ETH_ID    IX_ETH_PORT_2
#define CYGNUM_ETH1_PHY_NO    1
 ...
