FreeRTOS for 2156x

Hi Sheng,

Thanks for your information and may I get which version of ADI FreeRTOS and CCES (CrossCore^® Embedded Studio) you are using?

Currently:

• The version of freeRTOS that supports ADSP-2156x is adi-freertos-1.4.0 base on official FreeRTOSv10.0.0.exe
• The CCES can be found at https://www.analog.com/en/design-center/evaluation-hardware-and-software/software/adswt-cces.html

There is also a document that Running the Examples on the ADSP-21569 EZ-Kit in the FreeRTOS User's Guide of Docs/adi_freertos_user_guide.pdf, I hope this is helpful.

As for the error you mentioned, I'm sorry that I can not make sure what caused it from the attached diagram now, so may I get the versions you are using first?

Thanks Again and if here is any questions or requirements, please let me know.

Best Regards!

Sullivan

hey Sullivan:

thanks for your timely reply. 

• Currently, I'm using the FreeRTOS version of 1.4.0, because any version below it does not support 21569.
•  CCES is 2.9.1. 

Also, I was able to run freeRTOS on BF70x and SC573 without that debug pause issue.

I tacked down to the port ASM for 21569 , line 905. these code cause the pc fleet as far as I know

/* DAG1 High registers, load using system I11 */
B7 = PM(LOC(B7), I11); /* clobbers I7' */
B6 = PM(LOC(B6), I11);
B5 = PM(LOC(B5), I11);
B4 = PM(LOC(B4), I11);
L7 = PM(LOC(L7), I11);
L6 = PM(LOC(L6), I11);
L5 = PM(LOC(L5), I11);
L4 = PM(LOC(L4), I11);
M7 = PM(LOC(M7), I11);
M6 = PM(LOC(M6), I11);
M5 = PM(LOC(M5), I11);
M4 = PM(LOC(M4), I11);
I6 = PM(LOC(I6), I11);

Hi Sheng,

Thanks for this information your great contribution! 

Following your comments, I set up the configuration (same as yours) again and the ADSP-21569 FreeRTOS example runs well on my side, here is my project and test log for your reference :

21569 project:

1803.SHARC_ADSP_21569_CCES.zip

Test log:

Loading application: "C:\Analog Devices\CrossCore Embedded Studio 2.9.1\SHARC\ldr\ezkit21569_preload.dxe"
Load complete.
Loading application: "C:\Analog Devices\FreeRTOS\FreeRTOS_1.4.0_20200410\FreeRTOSv10.0.0\FreeRTOS\Demo\SHARC_ADSP_21569_CCES\RTOSDemo_CCES_SHARC_21569\Debug\RTOSDemo_CCES_SHARC_21569.dxe"
Load complete.

And could you please help me double check whether the attached 21569 FreeRTOS project can run (without rebuild) on your evaluation board. 

If you do not mind, may I get your project?  You can upload it on this page with the xxx.zip format or via the email: processor.tools.support@analog.com 

Thanks & Regards!

Hey Sullivan,

I can always get the "Test passed" string printed out on my side with the demo code in the adi_freeRTOS.zip.The problem is when I pause the running project, the PC shall fleet.

Can you pause your code in the debug section?

I ran your .dxe file and paused, still getting the pc 0x7ba780

any suggestions?

cheers,

Sheng Zhang

Hi Sheng,

Following your comments, I tried again, and I was able to pause ( suspend (shift + F5) ) the running  project in the debug section:

Any mistake in my operations ?

And, could you please upload a built project to let me check it on my board ?  I suspect this may a hardware or compiler problem,  if so, I will consult the relevant colleagues to solve it for you.

Thanks Again!

Cheers

Sullivan 

Hey Sullivan,

with your great effort, I reinstalled the CCES 2.9.1 and now It works perfectly.

Thank you.

Cheers,

Sheng Zhang
