Jun 07 16:34:31 please order them today if possible, it would be nice if we can sort out all uncertanities in this week Jun 07 16:34:41 and focus on algo part Jun 07 16:36:07 *nod* no arguments from me on that Jun 07 16:45:01 can I go back to sleep? Jun 07 16:48:48 <_av500_> m_w: office sleep is the best Jun 07 16:49:29 I work from home Jun 07 16:49:33 :) Jun 07 16:51:40 <_av500_> home office sleep is the best Jun 07 16:51:44 <_av500_> no need to wear patns Jun 07 16:52:16 pantless wednesday Jun 07 16:58:32 no sweat pants even? Jun 07 17:00:50 shorts Jun 07 18:14:14 so, there's your answer... Jun 07 21:21:09 m_w: I received the board, I was able to load configuration to fpga, it looks well,  Jun 07 21:22:24 but I always have to load configuration twice and before loading I have to power the board down and up Jun 07 21:22:38  is it a problem concerning missing spi memory? Jun 07 21:25:16 how are you loading the bitstream? Jun 07 21:26:25 I had to pad the output bitstream with some extra 0x00s when using dd Jun 07 21:26:27 using dd (dd if=counter.bin of=/dev/spidev1.0) Jun 07 21:26:35 and it only worked on first power cycle Jun 07 21:27:20 echo -e "\x0\x0\x0\x0\x0\x0\x0" >> bitstream.file Jun 07 21:27:39 dd if=bitstream.file of=/dev/spidev1.0 Jun 07 21:27:58 ok I will try it Jun 07 21:29:15 here is a shell script that I referenced: https://github.com/xesscorp/CAT-Board/blob/master/tests/config_cat Jun 07 21:30:30 it only works the first time after power cycle because wel are not properly managing the reset of the fpga after the chip select is toggled Jun 07 21:34:15 m_w: will using ice40-mgr solve the problem? Jun 07 21:34:46 pmezydlo: yes I think it registers the GPIO for toggling them at appropriate times, lets look Jun 07 21:35:36 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/fpga/ice40-spi.c#L170 Jun 07 21:36:08 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/fpga/ice40-spi.c#L65 Jun 07 21:36:53 fine, it looks promising Jun 07 21:37:12 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/fpga/lattice-ice40-fpga-mgr.txt#L20 Jun 07 21:37:38 the reset need to be registered active low Jun 07 21:42:49 We have to try using ice40-mgr. Loading configuration after power up can be problematic Jun 07 21:44:00 however the board is amazing Jun 07 21:45:01 pmezydlo: yes, it worked well for the first revision Jun 07 21:46:11 remember to show it off to all of your friends :) Jun 07 21:49:22 yeah I see only one mistake BBB debug port is not accessible when cape is used Jun 07 21:49:56 I wouldn't call that a mistake on our part Jun 07 21:50:09 this is a design issue with the BBB Jun 07 21:50:39 yeah you are right Jun 07 21:52:50 http://elinux.org/CircuitCo:Right_Angle_Serial_Adapter Jun 07 21:53:49 this week I will prepare file for eeprom, dts can be loaded automatically Jun 07 21:54:41 sounds like a good plan Jun 07 21:56:16 I have soldered 3 cables to debug port **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Jun 08 03:00:01 2017
