Intellus LSDK README File jjPlus Corp. Copyright 2010 This README offers additional instructions to build the embedded linux operating system image for the Intellus embedded platform series, an Atheros PB42 reference design variant. Please contact Atheros or an Atheros distributor for more information about the PB42 LSDK reference design distribution. Note: Redboot should be upgraded. Please see "Updating the Redboot Flash Image" section. ___ Top Level Build Files to Prepare the Build Tree ___ The Intellus LSDK distribution is available in two files, a base archive and an archive of optional binary drivers and images. The distribution is based on the Atheros LSDK-pb42fus-7.3.0.429 release. The kernel version is 2.6.15. The modifications for the Intellus embedded platform series add platform build type, ja73pf, ja76pf, ja76pf2 and ja76pf2hx which includes support for: - AR8216 10/100M PHY switch - AR8316 10/100/1000M PHY switch - LM75A temperature controlled chassis fan - factory reset and WPS GPIO support - Firmware Upgrade support - MD5-crypt password for the http interface ___ Building the Firmware ____ The build process consists of uncompressing the distribution files and running the make utility in the build directory. >tar -zxf LSDK-intellus-7.3.0.429.tar.gz >tar -zxf LSDK-WLAN-intellus-7.3.0.429.tar.gz >cd LSDK-intellus-7.3.0.429/build >make A clean build of the tool chain, kernel and all file system components takes approximately 20 minutes on a 2GHz Intel Core2 Duo T7300 w/ 2GB DDR2. ___ Building the Firmware in 64-bit Linux ___ The prebuilt binaries are built for 32-bit. To build successfully,"ia32" package is necessary. On a Ubuntu machine, please follow the command below. ~ $ sudo apt-get install ia32 ___ Building the Firmware with older gcc ___ The GCC should be equal or under 4.1, if the GCC is too new. Please install older gcc. GCC-4.1 is recommended. ~ $ sudo apt-get install gcc-4.1 To use older gcc to build, a file "site.mk" should be included to the Makefile. >cd LSDK-intellus-7.3.0.429/build >echo "HOSTCC = gcc-4.1" > site.mk >make clean ; make ___ Intellus Firmware Images ___ The kernel and file system image files are located in the directory LSDK-ja73pf-7.3.0.429/images/intellus: | | - intellus_routing-jffs2 - file system image | - INTELLUS-update.img - firmware image for http upgrade | - redboot-ja73pf.bin - RAM boot loader image for JA73PF | - redboot-ja73pf.rom - flash ROM boot loader image for JA73PF | - redboot-ja76pf.bin - RAM boot loader image for JA76PF | - redboot-ja76pf.rom - flash ROM boot loader image for JA76PF | - redboot-ja76pf2.bin - RAM boot loader image for JA76PF2 | - redboot-ja76pf2.rom - flash ROM boot loader image for JA76PF2 | - redboot-ja76pf2hx.bin - RAM boot loader image for JA76PF2HX | - redboot-ja76pf2hx.rom - flash ROM boot loader image for JA76PF2HX | - vmlinux_routing.bin.gz - Linux kernel image | - vmlinux_routing.info - Linux kernel load address and entry point informations The RAM boot loader image is included for JTAG loading on a non-bootable device.

Redboot uses tftp transfer protocol for image retrieval. The default network settings for the JA73PF redboot configuration are: Local IP address: 192.168.1.2 Local IP address mask: 255.255.255.0 Default server IP address: 192.168.1.1 If a different local or default server IP is required for the LAN, it will be necessary to change the values using fconfig and rebooting for the changes to take effect. The following steps will reprogram the kernel and file system images on JA73PF and JA76PF. RedBoot> fis delete vmlinux Delete image 'vmlinux' - continue (y/n)? y ...

However the instructions below show the steps to upgrade the boot loader. The boot loader loads itself into RAM on startup, therefore it is not necessary to load a RAM image as a step in the boot loader reprogramming. The RAM image is included for JTAG loading on a non-bootable device. Below is the steps to update the ROM flash. The redboot-[platform_name].rom image must first be copied to a tftp server directory. Note: The boot script may need to be canceled when starting the RAM image using CTRL-C before proceeding with the update. The following steps will reprogram the Redboot on JA73PF. Change the ROM image name when using other platform.

RedBoot> ___ OpenOCD JTAG Support ___ The distribution includes modifications to support JTAG image loading to RAM. JTAG ram image loading of redboot-[platform_name].bin has been tested with OpenOCD (0.4.0 or newer) using an Olimex ARM-USB-TINY jtag interface. [1] The configuration file to support OpenOCD for the Intellus platforms is located in LSDK-ja73pf-7.3.0.429/openocd and the Win32 executable binary is located in LSDK-ja73pf-7.3.0.429/openocd/win32. OpenOCD release 0.4.0 or newer includes a patch to speed-up the file transfer time for mips processors. A successful jtag ram image upload is show below. >cd LSDK-ja73pf-7.3.0.429/openocd >openocd -f interface/olimex-jtag-tiny.cfg -f ar71xx.cfg On a Win32 system, copy the files in LSDK-ja73pf-7.3.0.429/openocd/win32 to a directory.
