Mar 03 07:56:20 <ravikp7> Hi, I've made a pull request for the Hello World gsoc application. Should I proceed to create a proposal on eLinux wiki ? Can someone guide me ?
Mar 03 08:33:50 <zeekhuge> ravikp7: hi ! What project have you decided to work on ?
Mar 03 08:34:53 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: Porting BeagleBone USB-based bootloader server from C to js
Mar 03 08:37:26 <zeekhuge> ravikp7: I think the mentors decided that being able to crosscomiple the kernel as one of the initial requirements.
Mar 03 08:38:23 <zeekhuge> *crosscompile the kernel should be one of
Mar 03 08:39:39 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: On elinux wiki page, it asks to cross compile just the hello world program , so I just did it. It doesn't mention about compiling the kernel.
Mar 03 08:41:10 <ravikp7> Should I cross compile the kernel now ?
Mar 03 08:41:41 <zeekhuge> That probably needs an update ...
Mar 03 08:41:41 <zeekhuge> But in any case, if you are able to do kernel-crosscompiling, that would make your proposal much stronger.
Mar 03 08:42:20 <zeekhuge> What's the proposal deadline ?
Mar 03 08:43:01 <maciejjo> April 3 IIRC
Mar 03 08:43:05 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: proposals submittion starts on 20 March
Mar 03 08:44:59 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: Can you guide me on cross compiling the kernel ?
Mar 03 08:57:44 <zeekhuge> ravikp7: if you proceed to cross compile, and face problem, you can ask here and anyone who would know a solution will help.
Mar 03 08:59:37 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: how can I show you that I have successfully compiled the kernel ? How can I test the compiled kernel ?
Mar 03 09:03:45 <zeekhuge> Like .. Ahh .. You Dont kind of need to show .. You need to do ..
Mar 03 09:03:45 <zeekhuge> Though you can share the compilation log with mentors here ...
Mar 03 09:04:37 <zeekhuge> Being able to figure out the right tree .. The config file and all other things will be imp.
Mar 03 09:06:32 <ravikp7> zeekhuge : Thanks
Mar 03 09:06:35 <zeekhuge> And if you are able to boot that kernel ! It will be a bonus !
Mar 03 09:07:08 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: I don't have a bb board
Mar 03 09:07:22 <zeekhuge> Oh ! Okay ..
Mar 03 09:07:53 <ravikp7> zeekhuge: Can I do the same for raspberry pi ? I have one
Mar 03 09:08:41 <zeekhuge> Not sure .
Mar 03 09:08:41 <zeekhuge> Its about understanding the source trees and code organization of this community.
Mar 03 09:08:53 <zeekhuge> Go ahead and try to crosscompile
Mar 03 09:09:15 <ravikp7> Ok, Thanks
Mar 03 09:09:25 <zeekhuge> Select a particular version and try to cross compile that.
Mar 03 09:09:39 <ravikp7> ok
Mar 03 10:15:38 <maciejjo> zeekhuge: can you recommend some resources to familarize with PRU programming?
Mar 03 10:16:07 <zeekhuge> uhmm .. I wrote some examples ..
Mar 03 10:16:21 <zeekhuge> but there have been changes in the kernel after that ..
Mar 03 10:16:23 <zeekhuge> so ..
Mar 03 10:16:25 <maciejjo> I started with your tutorials to get it running yesterday, and I would like to learn some more
Mar 03 10:16:39 <maciejjo> are TI tutorials up to date?
Mar 03 10:16:51 <zeekhuge> I dont think so.
Mar 03 10:17:01 <zeekhuge> depends .
Mar 03 10:17:08 <zeekhuge> what do you want to do ?
Mar 03 10:17:16 <zeekhuge> like what inside the PRUSS ?
Mar 03 10:18:26 <maciejjo> I decided I want to apply for PRU DMA project
Mar 03 10:20:37 <maciejjo> I would like to get familiar with PRU - ARM communication
Mar 03 10:20:41 <maciejjo> how interrupts work
Mar 03 10:23:23 <zeekhuge> there was an example for that too ? isnt it ?
Mar 03 10:23:42 <zeekhuge> btw, did those examples work ?
Mar 03 10:23:49 <zeekhuge> what kernel version do you have ?
Mar 03 10:24:05 <maciejjo> ti 4.9
Mar 03 10:24:22 <maciejjo> I was able to run blikny example
Mar 03 10:24:33 <zeekhuge> ohkay .
Mar 03 10:25:19 <zeekhuge> checkout these https://github.com/ZeekHuge/BeagleScope/tree/port_to_4.4.12-ti-r31%2B/examples/firmware_exmples
Mar 03 10:25:53 <maciejjo> ok, I will, thanks
Mar 03 10:25:54 <zeekhuge> if blinky is working .. probably others will do too ..
Mar 03 11:45:33 <zeekhuge> maciejjo: were you asking about the pru-sw-support package by TI ? That must be up to date I think ..
Mar 03 11:53:45 <maciejjo> I was asking about PRU hands-on labs
Mar 03 11:54:15 <zeekhuge> okay so that probably is outdated ..
Mar 03 11:54:52 <maciejjo> https://git.ti.com/pru-software-support-package/pru-software-support-package/trees/master
Mar 03 11:55:05 <maciejjo> this is the package you meant?
Mar 03 11:55:10 <zeekhuge> yeah !
Mar 03 11:55:42 <maciejjo> cool, I will check this out
Mar 03 11:57:58 <pmezydlo> maciejjo: probably, last year project codes is the better options for learn
Mar 03 11:59:01 <pmezydlo> I saw that zeekhuge code is a great example
Mar 03 12:03:08 <maciejjo> yeah, I already have those :)
Mar 03 12:07:08 <pmezydlo> maciejjo: which project do you want?
Mar 03 12:09:12 <maciejjo> I settled on PRU DMA support
Mar 03 14:47:34 <ssuhrid> Hello,  First of all, I would like to congratulate your organization on being selected in the GSOC program for the first time.  My name is Suhrid Srivastava and I am a 4th year student of Electronics and Communications. I have been working on Embedded Systems and coding projects over the past few years, and wish to take part in the GSOC under your organization. I am new to BeagleBone, but I am pretty sure that if you can help me

Mar 03 14:58:46 <zeekhuge> seriously ? for the first time ?
Mar 03 14:59:04 <zeekhuge> ahh .. he's gone !
Mar 03 17:23:23 <siddas27> I have installed angstrom cross-compiler in my Ubuntu system. But when I run "$arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc-static -o helloworld.bin helloworld.c", its showing an error "arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc-static: command not found".Please help me with this."
Mar 03 17:25:47 <zeekhuge> siddas27: how do you compile a simple C program on your system ?
Mar 03 17:25:57 <zeekhuge> I mean, what command do you use ?
Mar 03 17:27:13 <siddas27> gcc  - o hello hello.c
Mar 03 17:27:47 <maciejjo> siddas27: maybe you are just missing a space between gcc and -static
Mar 03 17:27:58 <zeekhuge> thats right . So thats because you are compiling for that very system and not crosscompiling.
Mar 03 17:28:33 <zeekhuge> so you just need to call arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc
Mar 03 17:28:39 <zeekhuge> not that -static thing
Mar 03 17:28:50 <zeekhuge> gcc is the compiler
Mar 03 17:29:21 <zeekhuge> and you are just calling a different version (kind of)of gcc
Mar 03 17:29:43 <maciejjo> I believe -static just guarantees that binary won't be dynamically linked
Mar 03 17:29:50 <zeekhuge> by adding that arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi
Mar 03 17:30:20 <zeekhuge> I mean that the -static not needs to be with the gcc . it should be seperate parameter
Mar 03 17:31:04 <siddas27> U mean I should to write "arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -o helloworld.bin helloworld.c"
