Last change on this file since e4c07444 was 35ece2e, checked in by Joel Sherrill <joel.sherrill@…>, on 02/11/00 at 15:21:40

Patch from Eric Norum <eric@…> based on working with
Bob Wisdon <bobwis@…> and Chris Johns <ccj@…>
to resolve a random network lockup problem.

ckinit.c:

Occasional network lockups have been noted when the PIT has a higher
interrupt request level than the CPM. The SCC1 bit in the CISR is set
even though the SCC1 interrupt handler is not active. This blocks
interrupts from SCC1 (and all other CPM sources) and locks up the
system. It has not been determined whether the error is within the
68360 or in the RTEMS interrupt support assembler code. The solution,
for now, is to set both PIT and CPM interrupt request levels to the same
value (4).

network.c:

Set CPM transmitter buffer pointer (_tbptr) to beginning of frame
before restarting transmitter. Don't retire transmitter buffer
descriptors belonging to the restarted frame.

21# This board support package works with several different versions of
22# MC68360 systems.  See the conditional-compile tests in startup/init68360.c
23# for examples.
24#
25# Decisions made at compile time include:
26#       - If the CPU is a member of the 68040 family, the BSP is
27#         compiled for a generic 68040/68360 system as described
28#         in Chapter 9 of the MC68360 User's Manual.  This version
29#         can be used with the Arnewsh SBC360 card.
30#       - If the preprocessor symbol M68360_ATLAS_HSB is defined,
31#         the BSP is compiled for an Atlas HSB card.
32#       - Otherwise, the BSP is compiled for a generic 68360 system
33#         as described in Chapter 9 of the MC68360 User's Manual.  This
34#         version works with the Atlas ACE360 card.
35#
36# Decisions to be made a link-edit time are:
37#     - The size of the memory allocator heap.  The default value is
38#       64 kbytes.  If the network package is used the heap
39#       should be at least 256 kbytes.  If your network is large, or
40#       busy, the heap should be even larger.
41#       To choose a heap size of 256 kbytes,
42#       CFLAGS_LD += -Wl,--defsym -Wl,HeapSize=0x40000

279Porting
280-------
281This board support package is written for a 68360 system similar to that
282described in chapter 9 of the Motorola MC68360 Quad Integrated Communication
283Processor Users' Manual.  The salient features of this hardware are:
284
285        25 MHz external clock
286        DRAM address multiplexing provided by 68360
287        8-bit 180nsec PROM to CS0*
288        4 MBytes of 60 nsec parity DRAM (1Mx36) to RAS1*/CAS1*
289        Console serial port on SMC1
290        Ethernet interface on SCC1
291
292The board support package has been tested with:
293        A home-built 68360 board
294        An ACE360A and an HSB board produced by:
295                Atlas Computer Equipment
296                703 Colina Lane
297                Santa Barbara, CA 93103
298        A 68040/68360 board (SBC360) produced by:
299                Arnewsh Inc.
300                P.O. Box 270352
301                Fort Collins, CO 80527-0352
