hi everybody,
iam using a nios II system generated from sopc builder.my system contains a CFI FLASH and SDRAM.Iam trying to simulate THE MEMTESTC.C exemple from the IDE.the sdram test is allright but the flash test is not. I have an error in Modelsim " -ERROR: Could not open flash i think that the problem is in the function alt_flash_open_dev witch don't recognize the flash i changed the code a little bit to be a ble to simulate staticvoid TestFlash(int mode, int flash_type) { alt_flash_fd* fd; int number_of_regions; int block; int y=0; flash_region* regions; int ret_code = 0x0; // alt_u8 entry[4]; alt_u8 flashname[30];i replace this variable by CFI_FLASH_NAME printf( "\n get flash name\n"); ret_code = GetFlashName(CFI_FLASH_NAME,CFI); printf("\n openning the falsh\n"); fd = alt_flash_open_dev(CFI_FLASH_NAME); if (fd) { printf(" -Successfully opened %s\n", CFI_FLASH_NAME); /* Get some useful info about the flash */ ret_code = alt_get_flash_info(fd, ®ions, &number_of_regions); if (!ret_code) { printf(" -Region 0 contains %d blocks.\n", regions->number_of_blocks); block = FlashFindErasedBlocks(fd, regions, number_of_regions, mode); /* If we're in TEST mode, ask if this block is okay to test. */ if(( mode == TEST ) && ( block != QUIT_WITHOUT_TESTING )) { printf(" -Block %d, at address 0x%X identified.\n", block, (regions->offset + (block * regions->block_size))); printf(" -Would you like to test this block? (y/n)"); //GetInputString(entry, sizeof(entry), stdin); y=1; // if ( entry[0] == 'y' && entry[1] == '\n' ) if(y==1) { /* Test that Flash! */ FlashRunTests(fd, block, regions); printf( " -Closing flash device \"%s\".\n",CFI_FLASH_NAME); alt_flash_close_dev(fd); } } } } else
{ printf( " -ERROR: Could not open %s\n", CFI_FLASH_NAME); } } i tried a lot of things and i get the same result if somebody have an idea about how to solve this problem please HELP ME http://www.alteraforum.com/forum//proweb/misc/progress.gif
