Problem with jssf2

Hi Mell,

On my system the two files you need to edit are in these locations:

C:\altera\kits\nios2_60\components\ecos\ecos-current\packages\devs\flash\sopc\altera_avalon_am29lv065d_flash\current\src\altera_avalon_am29lv065d_flash.c

C:\altera\kits\nios2_60\components\ecos\ecos-current\packages\devs\flash\amd\am29xxxxx\current\include\flash_am29xxxxx_parts.inl

The file called altera_avalon_am29lv065d_flash.c contains a definition of the flash geometry that is being used. Near the top of the file you will find some code like this:

   # define CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE  (1)
   # define CYGNUM_FLASH_SERIES         (1)
   # define CYGNUM_FLASH_WIDTH          (8)
   # define CYGNUM_FLASH_BASE       altera_avalon_am29lv065d_base

You need to add a line to this to specify that the flash is being used in 8-bit mode, like so:

#define CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE (1)# define CYGNUM_FLASH_SERIES     (1)# define CYGNUM_FLASH_WIDTH      (8)# define CYGNUM_FLASH_16AS8    (1)# define CYGNUM_FLASH_BASE    altera_avalon_am29lv065d_base

The second file called flash_am29xxxxx_parts.inl contains the settings required to drive the flash. It consists of a long list of flash settings. The defines in the previous file cause parts of the second file to be enabled. We need to add a new section to flash_am29xxxxx_parts.inl to describe the flash being used in 8-bit mode.

Search for this code in the file (Somewhere around line 560):

#else // 16 bit devices
# ifdef CYGHWR_DEVS_FLASH_AMD_AM29LV128
    {   // AM29LV128
        device_id  : FLASHWORD(0x227e),  
        block_size : 0x10000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE,
        block_count: 256,
        device_size: 0x1000000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE,
        base_mask  : ~(0x1000000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE - 1),
        bootblock  : false,
        banked     : false,
        bufsiz     : 16
    },# endif

This is the existing code for 16-bit access to the flash. You need to add an 8-bit section before the# else statement like so:

#ifdef CYGHWR_DEVS_FLASH_AMD_AM29LV128
    { // AM29LV128
  long_device_id: true,
  device_id : FLASHWORD(0x7e),
  device_id2 : FLASHWORD(0x12),
  device_id3 : FLASHWORD(0x00),
  block_size : 0x10000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE,
  block_count: 256,
  device_size: 0x1000000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE,
  base_mask : ~(0x1000000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE - 1),
  bootblock : false,
  banked : false,
  bufsiz : 16
    },# endif
# else // 16 bit devices
# ifdef CYGHWR_DEVS_FLASH_AMD_AM29LV128
    {   // AM29LV128
        device_id  : FLASHWORD(0x227e),  
        block_size : 0x10000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE,
        block_count: 256,
        device_size: 0x1000000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE,
        base_mask  : ~(0x1000000 * CYGNUM_FLASH_INTERLEAVE - 1),
        bootblock  : false,
        banked     : false,
        bufsiz     : 16
    },# endif

The tabs have been messed up by pasting into this message. If I knew how to send attachments through this forum then I would send these files to you. You could send me a "personal message" through the forum with your email address and I could then send the files directly to you.
