[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 2/2] pru-software-support: add library for PRU firmware

Mon Nov 28 15:18:14 UTC 2016


TI provides a set of headers files and libraries useful in developing
firmware for real-time (PRU) cores embedded in some processors e.g.
AM3358.  This package stages these files for any packages creating
PRU firmware.

Note: As per [1], use commit v4.0.2 to sync with common TI Linux
      versions.

Changes v1 --> v2
 * change from staging to host package (thanks Arnout & Thomas)
 * match upstream name of pru-software-support (thanks Arnout)
 * ensured config dependencies are propagated (thanks Arnout)
 * added a hash file (thanks Arnout)
 * various little clean-ups

Changes v2 --> v3
 * add option to build examples too (suggested by Arnout & Thomas)
 * depend on ti-cgt-pru as we need it to compile

+PRU Software Support
+====================
+Two different packages are provided from the TI PRU software support code base.
+1. The include files and rpmsg static library for the PRU are installed
+   alongside the host package for the PRU code generation tools package i.e.
+   $(TI_CGT_PRU_INSTALLDIR).
+2. A target package for all the examples installed to
+   /usr/share/pru-software-support/.  Users wanting to test a specific example
+   should copy or link it to a directory where the kernel looks for firmware
+   e.g. (at the root command prompt on the target)
+
+ # cp /usr/share/pru-software-support/am335x/PRU_gpioToggle/gen/PRU_gpioToggle.out \
+   /lib/firmware/am335x-pru0-fw
+
+To get started with the PRU, have a look at the labs [1].
