walnut_target(1) walnut - IBM PPC405GP EVB IBM PPC405GP EVB INTRODUCTION This reference entry provides board-specific information necessary to run VxWorks for the walnut (IBM PPC405GP) BSP. Before using a board with VxWorks, verify that the board runs in the factory configuration by using vendor-supplied ROMs and jumper settings and checking the RS-232 connection. This BSP supports the PowerPC 405GP Rev D and Rev E parts. Rev B and Rev C support is deprecated; support remains as in original release, but has not been validated nor upgraded for this release. Rev A parts are no longer supported with this release. Boot ROMs The IBM 405GP Evaluation Board uses a single VxWorks-supplied AMD Am29F040 ROM (total 512KB). Install the ROM as follows: ROM Socket ----------- - U27 The BSP supports the NVRAM (Dallas Semiconductor DS1743) on the walnut board. The boot parameters will be preserved when the system is powered off. Jumpers Not applicable. FEATURES Supported Features The following features are supported in this release: - MMU on the PPC405GP processor (MMU_BASIC only). - System Timer (uses 405GP PIT hardware timer) - Auxiliary Timer (uses 405GP FIT hardware timer) - Watchdog Timer (uses 405GP WDT hardware timer) - Both 405GP integrated 16550-style serial ports - 405GP integrated Universal Interrupt Controller (UIC) - MAL/EMAC (integrated Memory Access Layer and 10/100 Ethernet MAC) - 405GP PCI controller - AMD 79C97x family of Ethernet controller (using ln97xEnd driver) - Allied Telesyn 2450T adapter (AMD 79C970) has been tested - Allied Telesyn 2700TX adapter (AMD 79C972) has been tested - other adapters with the same AMD controller may also work. - SDRAM autoconfiguration (the default 32MB SDRAM DIMM can be replaced with up to a 128MB DIMM) using IIC to read the DIMM SEEPROM - ECC SDRAM - NVRAM (Dallas Semiconductor DS1743) - Real-time clock (Dallas Semiconductor DS1743) using ds1643rtc.c driver - JTAG RISCWatch bootrom flash programming tool HARDWARE DETAILS This section documents the details of the device drivers and board hardware elements. Devices The chip drivers used by this BSP are: It also provides DCR access routines for the following functional units: - IBM DMA controller - IBM external bus controller - IBM Memory Access Layer (MAL) - IBM SDRAM controller - IBM Universal Int Controller (UIC) Memory Maps This BSP supports MMU on the PPC405GP processor. Memory is mapped using a fixed page size of 4K. The sysPhysMemDesc[] array in sysLib.c is used to initialize the Page Table Entry (PTE) array used by the MMU to translate addresses with single page (4k) granularity. Address translations for local RAM, memory mapped PCI bus, memory mapped IO space and local PROM/FLASH are set here. PTEs are held in a 2-level page table. There is one Level 1 page table and several Level 2 page tables. The size of the Level 1 table is 4K and the size of each Level 2 page table is 8K. Each Level 2 table can map up to 4MB of contiguous memory space. Calculating size of page table required For the following memory map we can calculate the page table size required as follows: Memory Area Address Range Mapped Size Number of Level 2 pages ------------------------------------------------------------------- Local Memory 0 - Ram size 32MB 8 PCI Memory 0x80000000-0x83FFFFFF 64MB 16 PCI IO Regn 1 0xE8000000-0xE800FFFF 64K 1 PCI IO Regn 2 0xE8800000-0xE88FFFFF 1MB 1 PCI CFG 0xEEC00000-0xEEC00FFF 4K 1 PCI IACK 0xEED00000-0xEED00FFF 4K 0 * PP Bridge 0xEF400000-0xEF400FFF 4K 1 UART IO Space 0xEF600000-0xEF600FFF 4K 0 * NVRAM Space 0xF0000000-0xF0001FFF 8K 1 Flash 0xFFF80000-0xFFFFFFFF 512K 1 * included in previous L2 page Total # of L2 pages = 30 Total Memory Required for page table = 30 * 8 + 4 = 244 K. By default, to increase performance the instruction MMU (IMMU) is turned off. In this case, instruction cacheability is controlled by ICCR (which by default is set to cache all RAM). The IMMU can be re-enabled by defining USER_I_MMU_ENABLE in config.h. Serial Configuration The default configuration of the serial ports are 9600bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. Network Configuration The Enhanced Network Driver (END) used with the integrated EMAC Ethernet core is "ibmEmacEnd": Note that the boot device name is now "emac", rather than "ibmEmac". The EMAC works at either 10Mbps or 100Mbps. EMAC gets the results of the PHY's auto-negotiation process over the MII interface. board. This controller uses the ln97xEnd driver provided with VxWorks. The Ethernet hardware address is configurable at run-time. The first three bytes of the address are always assumed to be 0x0004AC (IBM) and the last three bytes are configurable and stored in NVRAM at address 0xF0000500. To make the ethernet hardware address match the address printed on the decal attached to the Walnut board use the following example as a guide. Ethernet hardware address on the Walnut board decal: 0004AC3E4B22 - boot VxWorks - execute the following command from the shell: sysLanIbmEmacEnetAddrSet 0x00, 0x04, 0xAC, 0x3E, 0x4B, 0x22 Supported BootRom builds The following bootrom file types are supported in this release. When using a Rev B or Rev C processor (which are deprecated), the patch405b.exe or patch405c.exe tool must be run on the entire ELF file. If a compressed bootrom is built, this is not possible. bootrom_uncmp (405GP Rev B (deprecated), C (deprecated), D, E) bootrom_uncmp.hex (405GP Rev B (deprecated), C (deprecated), or D, E) bootrom (405GP Rev D, E only) bootrom.hex (405GP Rev D, E only) ** Note: bootrom builds are only supported through the command line makefiles -- do not use the project mechanism to build a boot ROM. For PPC405GP_REVB (deprecated): A batch file has been provided that will post-process the bootrom_uncmp file. After bootrom_uncmp is built, run the bootrrb.bat file. bootrrb.bat will modify bootrom_uncmp and will create a new bootrom_uncmp.hex. For PPC405GP_REVC (deprecated): A batch file has been provided that will post-process the bootrom_uncmp file. After bootrom_uncmp is built, run the bootrrc.bat file. bootrrc.bat will modify bootrom_uncmp and will create a new bootrom_uncmp.hex. For PPC405GP_REVD_OR_E: It is not necessary to post-process the bootrom files when using the 405GP Rev D or E processor. For all processor revisions: The standard uncompressed ROM and ROM-resident project configuration are not supplied because they will not fit in the bootrom. Creating a bootrom, and bringing up vxWorks Create a bootrom by either a) Rebuilding bootrom_uncmp.hex image and programming it into an AMD 29F040 flash part using the following steps: - For PPC405GP_REVD_OR_E - make bootrom_uncmp.hex or bootrom.hex b) If you have a JTAG RISCWatch processor probe, you can use vx_rw_flash.cmd to program the flash part (see below). Connect a terminal or terminal emulator to the board (the 9 pin connector closest to the printed circuit board). Emulator parameters should be set to 9600bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. Power-up the board, you should get an error because the default boot line in config.h is not 100% correct for your environment. Type in new configuration parameters using the bootrom menu (set boot device : emac). Your new configuration will be stored in the NVRAM. Workbench bootrom flash programming utility a) Install the WindRiver ICE and power it on. Connect the JTAG interface cable from the Wind River ICE to the PPC405GP board JTAG connector (J24 located on the CPU card). When all of the connections have been made, power up the target board and create a Wind River ICE connection in Workbench. b) Configure the Workbench connection. When creating the connection, specify the PPC405GP CPU. Enter the IP address of the Wind River ICE when requested. c) Load the proper PPC405GP register setting for WindRiver ICE. Once you have connected the probe to the CPU, right-click on the connection in the target manager and attach to the CPU core. At this point, you can go to the main Workbench Window tab at the top of the view and select "show view". Browse the view list and select OCD Command Shell. This launches the original BKM command shell. Navigate to the target manager and right-click on core(405GP). Select the reset tab. You can now put the register file provided by the installation in "play register file" (for example, registers/PowerPC/4xx/IBM/405gp.reg). Reset with IN then click the reset download button. You have now loaded the target board with enough settings to program the boot ROM. Close the Reset and Download window after the register file playback finishes. Select "Window > show view" again and select Flash Programmer. d) Converting the bootrom.hex file to bootrom.bin. Select the Add/Remove tab in the flash programmer. Click "convert file" and navigate to the boot loader project you created previously e.g. WindRiver\workspace\PPC405BootProj\bootrom.hex. Select the project. The start address should be 0x0 and the end address should be set to 0xffffffff. Click "convert and add" to convert the file. At this point, the file is added to the list. Click on the start address entry (should be 0x0) and change it to 0xfff80000. The file is now ready for programming. e) Program the PPC405GP flash. "Erase/Program". Go to OCD command shell and type IN. Be sure this returns the BKM RISCWatch bootrom flash programming utility An IBM RISCWatch based command file (vx_rw_flash.cmd) is provided that will program bootrom_uncmp.hex into the AMD Am29F040 flash part on the Walnut board. A RISCWatch JTAG processor probe and RISCWatch software version 4.5 or newer is required to use this utility. NOTE The vx_rw_flash.cmd utility may need modification if you use a different SDRAM DIMM than was shipped with the Walnut board (see notes inside vx_rw_flash.cmd). To use this utility, - make bootrom_uncmp via the command line interface (not with the IDE). - Run the bootrr_.bat batch file for the correct processor revision. This step will create a patched version of bootrom_uncmp.hex NOTE: The manual step of adding the branch instruction to bootrom_uncmp.hex is NOT necessary if using this utility! - Start IBM JTAG RISCWatch - Make sure that the RISCWatch search path is set up to find files in the Walnut BSP directory. One way to do this is to execute the following RISCWatch command: srchpath add c:\WR\VxWorks\target\config\walnut - Execute the following command to start the flash programming process. This example will place the bootrom_uncmp.hex file into the flash. exec vx_rw_flash.cmd {"bootrom_uncmp.hex"} SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS PowerPC 405GP Rev A (PVR = 0x40110000) This initial hardware sample is no longer supported. PowerPC 405GP Rev B (PVR = 0x40110040) errata There are errata in the 405GP Rev B chip that affect the operation of this Board Support Package. You should familiarize yourself with them. A current 405GP errata list is available from the PowerPC Technical support group (ppcsupp@us.ibm.com). To avoid 405GP Rev B errata a tool patch405b.exe has been included. This tool searches an ELF executable file (output of the linker) for certain patterns of instructions related to the above errata. If it finds a potential problem, it uses reserved space provided by patchtblb.s to create a "patch" which will avoid the errata. The patch table is allocated inside of sysALib.s because it includes patchtblb.s. If you are using a 405GP Rev B be sure to define PPC405GP_REVB in config.h. PowerPC 405GP Rev C (PVR = 0x40110082) errata There are errata in the 405GP Rev C chip that affect the operation of this Board Support Package. You should familiarize yourself with them. A current 405GP errata list is available from the PowerPC Technical support group (ppcsupp@us.ibm.com). To avoid 405GP Rev C errata a tool patch405c.exe has been included. This tool searches an ELF executable file (output of the linker) for certain patterns of instructions related to the above errata. If it finds a potential problem, it uses reserved space provided by patchtblc.s to create a "patch" which will avoid the errata. The patch If you are using a 405GP Rev D be sure to define PPC405GP_REVD_OR_E in config.h. PowerPC 405GP Rev E (PVR = 0x40110145) errata There are errata in the 405GP Rev E chip that affect the operation of this Board Support Package. You should familiarize yourself with them. A current 405GP errata list is available from the PowerPC Technical support group (ppcsupp@us.ibm.com). If you are using a 405GP Rev E be sure to define PPC405GP_REVD_OR_E in config.h. PowerPC 405GPr Rev B (PVR = 0x50910951) errata There are errata in the 405GPr Rev B chip that affect the operation of this Board Support Package. You should familiarize yourself with them. A current 405GPr errata list is available from the PowerPC Technical support group (ppcsupp@us.ibm.com). If you are using a 405GPr Rev B be sure to define PPC405GPR_REVB in config.h.
