**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Nov 11 02:59:57 2022 Nov 11 03:08:26 I found a lesson on Linkedin that went into ideas of RAM, Storage, and processors w/ light movement included! Nov 11 03:09:11 Sort of what you guys were discussing. So, he thought of a nanosecond as a single entity in RAM that took so many nanoseconds. Nov 11 03:09:57 Then, multiplication on the chip took more nanoseconds and then when he discussed RAM and Storage, up-up-up. Nov 11 03:10:17 Caches were discussed briefly. Nov 11 03:10:33 Then, they wanted more money. Blah. Nov 11 03:11:46 Financial AI is neat! Just hit the button and watch the merry-go-round go-go-go up-up-up. ha. Nov 11 03:12:23 Anyway, the am335x can be used for multiplication on the PRUs or in another form. Nov 11 03:12:47 ... Nov 11 03:14:08 I was thinking while you guys/gals were typing. I thought of the amount of processing "speed" that is incorporated into the am335x per instruction and how long it takes w/ all the afforded parts. Nov 11 03:14:42 Can I just use the am335x instead of using memory and storage to handle processing? Nov 11 03:15:03 Super-Deluxe! Nov 11 03:15:29 Sub-1GHz is blazing w/out an OS. Nov 11 03:16:49 Anyway, that is probably too complicated to discuss in time w/out superb efforts from many sources. So, bowing out! Nov 11 03:17:07 Still, neat to think about it. Nov 11 03:17:19 mmio? Nov 11 03:17:57 Python3 has a mmio mechanism that costs money from someone. Anyway, not your issue. I will learn somehow. Nov 11 03:20:55 Oh! It seems that mmio in python3 is using system calls. I thought system calls were not a route one should take... Nov 11 03:22:35 I read a Linux book that is against system calls. Nov 11 03:55:04 Ut oh. Nov 11 03:57:18 Servo Too Hot! Nov 11 05:04:06 How would I go about taking data from inputs read by my PRU and putting it somewhere on the computer? The final destination is to send over ethernet back to my host computer Nov 11 19:15:19 How would I go about taking data from inputs read by my PRU and putting it somewhere on the computer? The final destination is to send over ethernet back to my host computer. I see something about shared memory, is that the best way to do it? Nov 11 19:18:03 that would be a typical way to communicate between pru and linux userspace yes Nov 11 19:18:57 (when using remoteproc-pru there's also rpmsg, which still uses shared memory behind the scenes but layers a really really inefficient message-passing protocol on top to destroy your pru application's performance and determinism) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Nov 12 02:59:57 2022
