Intel Galileo Board
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
This README file contains general information about the Intel Galileo board
|
|
support. In the following lines you will find information about supported
|
|
features as well as instructions on how to build, run and debug applications
|
|
for this platform. The instructions were only test in Linux environment.
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
In order to build and debug the following packages must be installed in your
|
|
system:
|
|
* gcc
|
|
* gdb
|
|
* openocd
|
|
|
|
Moreover, in order to debug via JTAG or serial console, you will some extra
|
|
devices as described in [1] and [2].
|
|
|
|
Features
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
This section presents the features currently supported (e.g. device drivers
|
|
and Contiki APIs) by the Galileo port.
|
|
|
|
For now, no features are supported.
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
To build applications for this platform you should first build newlib (in
|
|
case it wasn't already built). To build newlib you can run the following
|
|
command:
|
|
```
|
|
$ ./platform/galileo/bsp/libc/build_newlib.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once newlib is built, you are ready to build applications. To build
|
|
applications for Galileo platform you should set TARGET variable to 'galileo'.
|
|
For instance, building the hello-world application should look like this:
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd examples/hello-world/ && make TARGET=galileo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will generate the 'hello-world.galileo' file which is a multiboot-
|
|
compliant [3] ELF image. In order to boot the Contiki image, you will need
|
|
a multiboot-compliant bootloader. In the bsp directory, we provide a helper
|
|
script which builds the Grub bootloader with multiboot support. To build the
|
|
bootloader, just run the following command:
|
|
```
|
|
$ platform/galileo/bsp/grub/build_grub.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Running
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
So to run Contiki applications in Galileo, we have three main steps:
|
|
prepare SDcard, connect to console, and boot image. Below follows
|
|
detailed instructions.
|
|
|
|
### Prepare SDcard
|
|
|
|
Mount the sdcard in directory /mnt/sdcard.
|
|
|
|
Copy Contiki binary image to sdcard
|
|
```
|
|
$ cp examples/hello-world/hello-world.galileo /mnt/sdcard
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Copy grub binary to sdcard
|
|
```
|
|
$ cp platform/galileo/bsp/grub/bin/grub.efi /mnt/sdcard
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Connect to the console output
|
|
|
|
Connect the serial cable to your computer as showed in [2].
|
|
|
|
Choose one terminal emulator such as screen, putty or minicom. Make sure you
|
|
use keyboard SCO mode (on putty that option is at Terminal -> Keyboard, on
|
|
the left menu). Connect to /dev/ttyUSB0, use 115200 speed.
|
|
|
|
### Boot Contiki Image
|
|
|
|
Turn on your board. After a few seconds you should see the following text
|
|
in the screen:
|
|
```
|
|
Press [Enter] to directly boot.
|
|
Press [F7] to show boot menu options.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Press <F7> and select the option "UEFI Internal Shell" within the menu. Once
|
|
you have a shell, run the following commands to run grub application:
|
|
```
|
|
$ fs0:
|
|
$ grub.efi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You'll reach de grub shell. Now run the following commands to boot Contiki
|
|
image:
|
|
```
|
|
$ multiboot /hello-world.galileo
|
|
$ boot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For now, we lack of UART support so you won't see any output. However, you can
|
|
use JTAG (see next section) to verify that the Contiki is running.
|
|
|
|
Debugging
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
This section describes how to debug Contiki via JTAG. The following
|
|
instructions consider you have the devices: Flyswatter2 and ARM-JTAG-20-10
|
|
adapter (see [1]).
|
|
|
|
Attach the Flyswatter2 to your host computer with an USB cable. Connect the
|
|
Flyswatter2 and ARM-JTAG-20-10 adapter using the 20-pins head. Connect the
|
|
ARM-JTAG-20-10 adapter to Galileo Gen2 JTAG port using the 10-pins head.
|
|
|
|
Once everything is connected, run Contiki as described in "Running" section,
|
|
but right after loading Contiki image (multiboot command), run the following
|
|
command:
|
|
```
|
|
$ make TARGET=galileo debug
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The 'debug' rule will run OpenOCD and gdb with the right parameters. OpenOCD
|
|
will run in background and its output will be redirected to a log file in the
|
|
application's path called LOG_OPENOCD. Once gdb client is detached, OpenOCD
|
|
is terminated.
|
|
|
|
If you use a gdb front-end, you can define the "GDB" environment
|
|
variable and your gdb front-end will be used instead of default gdb.
|
|
For instance, if you want to use cgdb front-end, just run the command:
|
|
```
|
|
$ make BOARD=galileo debug GDB=cgdb
|
|
```
