FREERTOS COLDFIRE MCF523x PORT with lwIP
|
|
|
|
REQUIREMENTS
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The FreeRTOS port is designed for the MCF523x processor where the hardware
|
|
dependent part consists of the CPU and the peripherals used in this port.
|
|
This includes a programmable timer (PIT) for the preemptive scheduler
|
|
and a UART for the demo application. The Coldfire specific part includes
|
|
the number and type of processor registers, the stack frame layout and
|
|
the usage of a software interrupt (trap) for the yield call.
|
|
|
|
The development environment used is based on the GNU C Compiler for
|
|
a m68k-elf target as well as the insight debugger with some patches for
|
|
the BDM interface[1]. GDB startup and linker scripts are supplied with
|
|
the demo for the M5235BCC evaluation kit from Freescale.
|
|
|
|

|
|
USAGE
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
A makefile is supplied with the demo application and a binary can be
|
|
produced by calling 'make all'. A special target 'debug' is provided
|
|
which executes the insight debugger. At the insight debugger prompt
|
|
one should select the appropriate target interface (either BDM/Direct
|
|
or BDM/TCP) and should download the application to the development
|
|
board. It is important that the GDB script setup-and-load is executed
|
|
prior to downloading to initialize the SDRAM. After downloading one
|
|
should call the GDB function 'execute' and the PC is set to the start
|
|
of the executable. Execution can be started by typing 'continue' at
|
|
the Insight console interface.
|
|
After this startup phase the insight debugger should work as usual, i.e.
|
|
no grayed out buttons, ...

COMMON PROBLEMS
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
Most of the problems have their origin in the startup scripts. The
|
|
following list should serve as a checklist where each point must be
|
|
satisfied for the port to work.
|
|
|
|
- The FreeRTOS port only works correctly in the supervisor mode. There-
|
|
fore the Coldfire CPU must run in the supervisor mode.
|
|
|
|
- portVECTOR_TABLE does not point to the currently active vector table.
|
|
Please also note that the vector table must be in RAM such that the
|
|
FreeRTOS port can install a traphandler for the portYIELD() call.
