5Notes about the MVME147 bsp

7MVME147 port for TNI - Telecom Bretagne
8by Dominique LE CAMPION (Dominique.LECAMPION@enst-bretagne.fr)
9May 1996

11
12This bsp is essentially based on the mvme136 bsp.
13
14Summary of the modifications that were made:
15
16 * include
17 
18   - bsp.h
19      Peripheral Channel Controller memory mapping
20      Z8530 memory mapping
21 
22 * startup
23 
24   - bspstart.c
25      main () setup for VME roundrobin mode
26              setup for the PCC interrupt vector base
27   - bspclean.c
28      bsp_cleanup () disable timer 1 & 2 interruptions
29   - linkcmds set the RAM start (0x5000) and size (4Meg - 0x5000)
30   - setvec.c unchanged
31   - sbrk.c unchanged
32 
33 * console
34 
35   - console.c taken from the dmv152 bsp (Zilog Z8530)
36               with no modification
37 
38 * clock
39 
40   - ckinit.c entirely rewritten for the PCC tick timer 2
41 
42 * timer
43 
44   - timerisr.s and timer.c
45     entirely rewritten for the PCC tick timer 1
46     now gives results un 6.25 us units (mininum timer delay,
47     suprising big grain)
48 
49 * times
50 
51   - updated results for the mvme147 (beware of the 6.25 us grain)
52
53 * Makefiles
54   
55   - compilation of shmsupp simply removed
56
57
58To be done:
59
60 * add VMEchip memory mapping to include/bsp.h
61
62 * update the overheads in coverhead.h
63
64 * add support for serila ports 2,3 and 4.
65
66Other notes:
67
68 * There is no MP support (no more shmsupp) because I have no
69   experience of the VME bus. The mvme136 shared memory support
70   does not seem applicable on the VMEchip of the mvme147, so
71   I don't know where to start. Suggestions are welcome.
72
73 * All the timing tests and sp tests have been run except tmoverhd.
74   The test hangs during the pause (where the task should be suspended
75   until a return). Maybe the rtems_initialize_executive is no more
76   reentrant with this bsp.
77
78Future work:
79
80 * Add gdb serial remote support.
81
82 * Shared memory support (I don't really need it, but I can do
83   it if it's simple).
84
85 * Message passing on VME bus, with Ada 95 annex E (distributed
86   systems) in mind.
