Re: [ECOS] got struck in running ecos application from ROMRAM

Hi,

You  have to write small functionality for relocating Code from ROM to RAM
if use ROMRAM Startup and it should called before MMU initialization. Please
refer the following reference logic for ur case.



Reference Code:- hal_platform_setup.h



#if defined(CYG_HAL_STARTUP_ROM) || defined(CYG_HAL_STARTUP_ROMRAM)

#define PLATFORM_SETUP1 _platform_setup1

#define CYGHWR_HAL_ARM_HAS_MMU

.............

//==========================================

// code relocation stuff for ROM/RAM startup

//==========================================

#if defined(CYG_HAL_STARTUP_ROMRAM)

#define RELOCATE_CODE                  \

       ldr     r2, =SA11X0_RAM_BANK0_BASE ;\   // Ur RAM Physical Base

       ldr     r3, =__exception_handlers  ;\

       ldr     r4, =SA11X0_ROM_BANK0_BASE ;\   // Ur ROM Physical Base

       ldr     r5, =_end              ;\

       add     r5, r5, r2             ;\

       add     r2, r2, r3             ;\

15:                                   ;\

       ldr     r6, [r4], #4           ;\

       str     r6, [r2], #4           ;\

       cmp     r2, r5                 ;\

       bne     15b                    ;\

       nop                            ;\

       nop                            ;\

       nop                            ;\

       nop                            ;\

       nop                            ;\

       nop                            ;\

20:                                   ;\

       nop                            ;\

       nop                            ;\

#else

#define RELOCATE_CODE

#endif

..............

// This macro represents the initial startup code for the platform

.macro _platform_setup1

...............................

// Set up a stack [for calling C code]

ldr r1,=__startup_stack

ldr r2,=SA11X0_RAM_BANK0_BASE   // Use ur  RAM Base Here

orr sp,r1,r2

// relocate code from ROM to RAM if ROM/RAM startup

RELOCATE_CODE

// Create MMU tables

bl hal_mmu_init

// Enable MMU

.endm

...........

#else // defined(CYG_HAL_STARTUP_ROM)

#define PLATFORM_SETUP1

#endif



I hope this will help you.....
